E. Mayes finish Ploughing Headlands round little Brettenham field
J. Howe side hoeing beet
Mallenders & Sallenders in Horses
The skin should be first treated with carbonate of soda, 2 ozs. well mixed with olive oil, 1 pint. This mixture will soften the skin and remove much of the increased cuticle. When sufficiently softened the skin may be washed with soft water and ordinary hand soap, when dry and clean apply fine ointment, well rubbed into the skin two or three times a week.

E. Mayes splitting swede ridges
J. Howe sowing manure & splitting swede ridges
from Agricultural Review of the Year 1922
The total number of cattle, 5,721,800, is 205,000 greater than last year. Cows and heifers in milk or in calf number ,521, 400 (sic) or 20,000 more than in 1921, and the largest on record except in 1918 and 1919. The number of heifers in calf is, however, 74,300 less than the high figure of last year, but is still some 17,000 greater than in 1920. The large increase in the number of calves recorded last year has practically been maintained, whilst the number of yearling cattle is 30 per cent greater than in 1921.The heavy slaughterings of calves in the spring of 1920 shows this year in cattle two years old and above which number 78,300 less than last year.

Bob & Kitty came over from Hartest
from Farm Work for the Year
June
Arable Farm: Turnip cultivation is the chief work in June in Southern and Midland counties. Other forward green crops will need horse and hand-hoeing, and singling out to fitting distances - mangels about 12 inches apart, carrots and parsnips about 7 or 8, and kohl rabi about 10. Cabbages may be transplanted either into well-prepared land, so as to yield a full crop of drumheads in December and late autumn, or between the rows of the ripening early crop of potatoes, so as to provide a catch crop after they have been removed.
