To Miss Taft

A week ago to-day we had a very bad snow storm. the wind blowed hard then it had all winter. You could not see the barn at times and there a very cold wind blow ever afternoon since.

I guess I did not ans you in regard to pop corn dutch cheese. You take 1 quart of whole milk and let set till it is sour and thick and at nite put it into 1 gallow skim milk which be thick in morning. set in a pan of hot water keep the temperature at 120 degrees. take a sharp knife cutting cheese like this ##. Wash twice and fix the way you like best. It is not so hard and so sour.

Yes we had a suprise to on the check. We expect it be there on Monday so Max load the car with corn + oats for cattle and we went as far mail box and come back. Max say this nice the fires didn't even go out while we were gone.

Max has the dorment spray on Saturday and started discing orchards. Max say is getting very dry. The grass is hardly green.

Max had to hire a man for this spray till horses get wore down a little. Tony Dohm had come and get engine on sprayer started. Max say the spray barrels don't leak this year.

This booklet inclose is what the farmers are using around here instead of black leaf 40. There a meeting at town hall on it by men that has used it. .95 cents per gallon.

Ronald fell on stone a cut big cut on his eye brow. I thought first we would have to have some stitches take in it. His eye is nearly swollen shut.

Max say the fence is nearly done. Manure is all spread. Had Russell Gore spreadin at .10 Cnts per load. $150.

Max payed weigh bill on manure but Tom payed him back so that all right.

Mrs. Richard lost her baby a 4 1/2 months. She lookss terrible. She say she to old to raise a family.

I guess that all news. Oh yes the man name Max got manure from was Mr. Benson

Sincerely

Max + Hazel
