of us to go over and help Billy Mills put straw over Jack's straw berries,so I went. Billy wasn't through with the chores when I got there as he has a lot of pigs to feed. We gathered up the straw from around the stack and as it was frozen it was slow pitching and we only got two loads out befre dinner. by that time the ground was to soft to work on. so I didn't gp back this after noon. Frank and Dad. took the oil cake down to the mill and weighed it and this after noon Frank went up to Simcoe to report to Johnson, his steward ship was evidently satisfactory as Johnson gave him 30 cents an hour for unloading the car. He drew about $7.00 and gave me $1.20 for my after noons work. Dad. and I didn't do much but chores this afternoon noon and I cleaned and rubbed up my Tommy Jackson harness. To-night I went down town and got my hair cut and took my drawings down to Aunty and she picked out some to send to the Correspondence School. No more lambs have come and the ones we have are doing well. two are still in the house. West wind but not cold.
