got were little ones with not much corn in it so we brought them in to feed to the cows without husking. We had a visit from a pail pedlar and got three pails from him. To-night I went down to see Marj. for awhile. Mild but frozen.

Thursday January 16th

John Quanbury came over this morning before we through. breakfast to get Frank to go and help him saw up part of the spruce tree which he cut down at Mrs. Battersby's about a month ago. The butt if it is a big log and John cab't saw it alone. We had figured on getting in some more corn but Dad. and I put off what we brought in last night but didn't go after any more. Frank came in and noon and he and I got in a load this after noon. Dad. was very much annoyed not to be able to help us but Jackie Pickford came over for a visit and Dad. couldn't shake him he was here for all the after noon. We didn't bring in a big load of corn as wwee don't pile it up on the rack but try to keep eacjh shock seperate so that we won't pull them to pueces when we unload. We didn't unload it to-night but emptied the chop we got the other day into Ed's big bin
