My dear Miss Taft:

We have had a nice little winter since I last wrote to you. I had to get two rolls of roofing at $1.50 a roll. This is not the best but good enough to last a few years perhaps by then some one else will have the farm.

Jos. & Roger finished plowing the D. apple orchard this a.m. it looks very nice now have started down at the woods.

The meadow came on very well after the rain altho' I can hardly see how it would after being so dry.

I went to T. C. over a week ago and ordered brick to have a new chimney Clarence Lardie put it up at $10 a day of course Jos. didn't have to help him with that as he has his own tender. But I can keep warm. Thanks a lot for the offer of the oil stove but won't need to use it as I have a cook stove there now. The chim is the kind they build for a furnace from basement up. That is all we have had done there and all we will until some other year.

We got another 1/2 cent out of our cherries with the promise of more. How about you?

I hardly think the Lardies are going away guess I will ask her now. No they are not going. Mrs. Mills is now Mrs. Ruff and they are going to Florida I must hurry as I have button holes to make in & night shirts for my husband Jos. has a dreadful cold & can hardly keep going.

Must close now as ever with Love Essie
