Thursday February 13th

Frank and I got out six more loads of manure this morning but quit early to go to Simcoe this after noon. We both went up and I went to the Co-operative meeting and Frank did shopping. He got some rock-salt & gut and got the harness we left at Church's. He said he couldn't fix it so we left it at Herb. Woods. We had an interesting meeting although there were not many out. Mr. Gordon from the Livestock branch was there to talk about shipping Livestock co-operatively and Mr. Kerr from P.E. Island told about their successful co-operative egg-marketing business down there. Prof Graham was also there but I didn't have time to wait till the meeting was over as Frank and I had to leave at four o'clock to get home in good time for supper. Dad. had most of the chores done when we got home. Mr. & Mrs. Jim Waddle were here to tea and spent the evening. Frank went down to a birthday party at Myrtle Greenbury's Very mild, roads in beautiful shape. Raining to-night.

Friday February 14th

It rained hard during the night so that we couldn't go on with the manure hauling. I took Daisy May over to Tupper's and whiule I was gone Alan Law came after Frank and the clippers to clip his horse. He was down there to dinner. This after noon Dad. and I drove down to Wess & George Fields t see their Shorthorns and were very agreably surprised at the bunch we saw. They have seven or eight cows of very uniflrm ttype and all thisck smooth and low down. They had two very fine yearling heifers all of Scotch breeding. Their $500.00 Imported two-year bull is very smooth and stylish looking but doiesn't look as if he would make. avery big bull. We went from there down to Blake's and I left some "Breeder's Gazettes" for Charlie to get pointers for his debate from. The roads were awful and consequently we were late getting home. We came up the Plank and through town as it was bettewr than the back way. Frank and I went down town to-night. Frank went to the W.I. dance. Still mild but drizzle.
