two more loads and now have all in the barn that we have room for and left the last load on the waggon, thrre asre only three shocks left out there now. Huby nand I put in nearly the whole afternoon setting a couple of anchor points in the chicken yard to put a cross fence in to make a separate yard for the breeding pen, they all got out to-gether to-day. The frost was in the ground about two feet. but by a lot of chopping and scraping Huby managed to get down past it. Dad is tickled to-night to theink that the old white ewe has at last recognised her lamb. She noses him and lets him get meals at all times hours" and apparently rthinks as much of him as the others did when their lambs were first born we blame it on St. Patrick. Froze orety hard stiff last night, mild and muddy to-day. There have been. a lot of robins seen in town but I haven't seen one yet.
