Finally got time when it was dry enough to work on cleaning up the horse lot. Some of you may remember me telling of my Percheron Draft horses. One thing they are very good at is leaving some serious manure piles around. I should have had a pair of them pulling the spreader but I was in too big of a hurry with too little time.

Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
