inquiring about the yearling rams to-day. Frank went down town to-night and telephoned Archie and he said he would be down with another man either to-morrow or Wednesday. Cloudy & cold east wind

Tuesday November 4th

Frank and I put the rams over in the colony yard this morning and trimmed up the lambs Dad. took the pork ut of the pickle and made fresh as he was afraid the first wasn't strong enough. He used a preserved egg tpo test the strength of ot and is afraid that it floated in a weaker solution than a fresh one would have. About the time we finished the sheep it began to rain and kept it up till after dinner. I haven't done much all day except write out my side of the debate for the J.F.I.A. Frank has been working out in the barn tearing up the old floor a doiling the bib sleighs. Trum Walker was in for awhile.
