Sun Dec 16 Clear and fine. We all kept sun as
usual. Mr Buffom and Gene were here to day and got
5.50/100 of wheat and 10 hund and thirteen lbs
of oats on the Larimer acct which leaves eleven
hund twenty seven lbs yet due him.

Mon Dec 17 Clear still and nice. I
worked at thehen dairy business most of the
forenoon and felt sort of bad all over most so
I came in and sat and laid around
awhile and helped Mother about her washing
a little and then Lew and Mary came home
with a big load of coal and we put in the rest
of the afternoon at unloading the coal and the
coal house is just about full at the present
writing. Johny went to school.

Tues Dec 18 Fine sure. Lew went
up to the ranch and has not got back yet. I
made a sack to feed the calves in and
then I coal oiled the east one of the lower
hen houses.

Wed Dec 19 Nice and still
and sunshiny to day again. Mother and I
and Lew and Mary went over to town to day and
made Mr Silas Buffoms folks a visit.
We had a good nice time and enjoyed
it very much. Johny went to school.

Thurs Dec 20 Mostly clear but a big
west wind nearly all day and it blows some yet.
Lew took some wheat to the mill and got some flour and then
went down to Franks. I fixed up the calf rack and
tinkered around some at other things.
Johny went to school.
