March 2, 1915 Miss Taft- Yes I made the plank break joints with the old floor and the stable is warmerr. There is no more sawdust at O. M. to get. There are about 4-1/2 acres in the piece I fall ploughed No I never helped treat seed oats but you need a tight floor to do it on. All the damage I have seen was two trees that the snow broke down Yes Mr. Knaggs is a blacksmith. I don't know of anyone that could fix Dicks teeth on the peninsula. No there are no rats in the cellar. The apples all seem to be nice and hard yet. I have got most of the manure hauled out and the south apple orchard trimed and started on the other orchard I don't know as we can get any ice up as there is neither wheeling or sleighing and Sox is laid up and the ice has to be hauled clear from Neantawanta and isn't much good after you do get it and we have no team that can haul it that distance. I got all the northern spy scions there was at Stutsmans and there is just about enough for one tree but I can get some more at Miss Morses Cleary's. I was down and seen Mikes cows and he had some good ones and some poor ones he had one that I thought a very good one and he wanted sixty dollars for her she is fresh now and then he had a heifer that was larger and he wants the same price for her. Mrs. Stutsman and I went down to see them and he wasnt at home he took six cows out to his sons. Ralph
