December 2nd.

Sunday December 2nd. 1923

Frosty
All at home

from Farm Work for the Year
December
Arable Farm:
Horse labour includes ploughing stubbles, ploughing lea for oats, carting lime for the kiln, and marl from pits or trenches to the fields where these are to be applied; also in carting stones to roads, tiles to drains, manures to fields, and grain to market; also in carting from market such feeding-stuffs as your stock require. Drainage work goes on in December, the lowest field on the farm being first done, and a good outfall for the whole area being secured. Roads should be made and mended.
