My Dear Miss Taft: - Will we are having winter again now it seems queer after the warm weather we was having.

The Wunsch & Cortade trial hasn't come off so far. I feel like giving Cortade a slap every time I think of him he is so rude. Will let you know when I hear.

Guy Tompkin's is dead & buried. He suffered dreadful.

Was so sorry to hear you are not well. Both children are having antibiotics Hazel's arm is pretty sore. Roger starts school again tomorrow. He plans on T.C. another year. Dr. Sawyer is very much interested in him & says he is one of the finest boys he ever met. Roger tries to be good & never forgets a wrong done him. It is pretty hard for us to help him much but will do my very best.

There was 221 bu. real good corn & 93 bu. of poor. Joseph priced corn at milling company & they are only paying $.35 per bu. but unless you sell this winter you better hold it as corn is scarce. Joseph has sale for 69 bu. of poor at $.25 per bu. and sale for the 19 bu. he couldn't get in crib at $.50 per bu. wouldn't let it go for less. As soon as we get the money for it we will put it in the bank. Joseph is looking for hay now & will let you know how he comes out.

If you get any wind about selling let us know & we will sell the corn right away. I think you have a chance to remind Wunsch in the Spring he will either buy or find you a buyer after what Edward told us about things during the Fall.

In regards to Jerry you are taking a chance. But then it is true with any thing. Mr. Wilbur lost his very best horse & a big doctor bill besides. Joseph has a chance to get a nice bay mare for $50 & Jerry to boot he has tried working her & she is real good for the money & is about 100# lighter then Queen. They look nice together. Joseph wanted me to mention this.

I wish you would sell us your heiffer. I hate to see the other fellow get her set a price like old Seth used to & maybe we will bite. Some people half starved their stock & I can't think of that. I don't expect we will even have a chance at her or the other cow either.

Jos. doesn't find any saw dust so far.
Yours with love Essie K. on other side

If you would sell a cow we could own her & things be the same as it is now you would have ferilizer & so forth the same.

I can't do any thing for Christmas thes year. It is a tough year on all the farmers.
