we put the bob sleighs away in the barn. I took six more chickens out of the incubator and as two more were dead this morning I think that makes sixty eight I have now They are all under three hens. I clane dout the macj=hne and set it again right away wiuth 140 eggs. Old Bill Roperts came at last to-day at noon after his sow. She seemed erfectly willing to follow him home behind the buggy This after noon Dad. and Frank fixed a fence accross the yard this side of the plum orchard so that he culd put his two bee hives out without the old ram bothering them. They were all flying to-day. We put them out to-night. I worked on my cj=hicken coop. Beautiful day, fairly hot. Lila was over after school to say that a man would,b e down home to-morrow noon to cut the telegraph wires so that they could fill the locust ree across the track, so they will have to go down.
