Description:Because of little activity on the farm, I have not written before. We are planning a hog sale on February 25; we expect to sell 25 or 30 bred gilts, and 40 fall pigs. We expect to farrow about 24 sows. The heavy snows we have had are fine protection for winter wheat; last year we had only 46 acres with 78 this year. Our tentative plan for planting next season depends on how the alfalfa gets through the winter; whether we will plow under 20 acres. Our plan calls for 180 acres of corn, about 104 acres of oats, 78 acres of winter wheat and 27.6 acres of alfalfa. This morning broke a record by selling an approximately one-month old veal calf for $45.00. I hope this fall the conditions in the meat business will be encouraging enough for us to start selling with a carload of steer calves. We have lost two farm men and are about to lose a third one in March; only Hank and White will be left. Marty Hatch was the first to leave, giving us a long notice; he will be hired by an implement repair shop for a much higher wage than we pay for farm help. Breckling left the middle of December for a farm near Downers Grove, working directly under the farm owner. His wages will be much higher than what we pay. Henry Bock will return to his father's farm this spring. After checking with Mr. Wright, we find our farm wages our farm wages are in line with those in the rest of the county. He promised to send me some men to interview. We may have to raise our wages in order to get good men. The Arboretum men are content with present wages so long as they will not be cut when wages go down. Our classes last week were a huge success and went smoothly. I'll write to Mrs. Cudahy in more detail after the Monday evening classes. I trust you are feeling yourself again and going outside to enjoy the fine weather
