Ellen ’s Diary _

by an Island Farmer's Wife

Rob was back to his choring to- day. to the feeding and cleaning of stables to the field and his other farm duties after a. brief respite yesterday in which he went to at- tend a meeting of island swine breeders in the city. This is a hus- bandry in which he finds much in- terest, this ralsing of hogs, and he works toward the steady improve- ment of his herd. "And what's new in swine culture?" I overheard one of our farmers ask him this morn- ing, in a tone that was sceptical and yet strangely alert, when he hap- pened to call a moment this morn- ing. Snow was falling then in a manner which advised the farmers to make haste with any ends of hauling, if they wished to get to the shelter of barns, and away from its dampness. O O 1t cut short Mr. C.'s wood-chop- ping and clearing, but gave him an opportunity to visit the city, ve- turning on a bus this afternoon, which,‘ reminding one of ihe tid- ings of great snowfall: in Western Canada this Winter, moved along a heavy road, Mr. C. related to us. and not too far in the wake of a snow plow. "Do you hear that. Ellen!" James commented, "this is by far the worst storm of the Win- teri" a s a

Now that night has enclosed us at Aldcrlea, it continues to heap the panes, and hearing the rising wind one is aware that drifts are collecting about the yards and heap- ing certain ones of the doors. "Win- ter has come at last." we said, clos- ing the door against it at twilight, and coming gratefully indoors from fetching extra sticks of hardwood to the box, glad to come to the pleasant shelter, the genial warmth pnd light. The wind in angry gusts now, threatens along the yards and about the roof, and makes loud com- plnints in the chimney and pipes, rather eerie and lonesome sounds but actually perfecting the storm, and James listening, hopcs “that no one will have to be out in this --no.' that it is so had. yet. but at the. same time most disagreeable"

Seek more hours for yourself which are free of pressure.

As we grow older the need to relax becomes increasingly more important. There is a need to re- lax both mind and muscles.
