-3 I'm trying to save all I can, but its very little that one can keep out $75 a month.... There are so many things coming out of it.... extra clothing, laundry, dry cleaning, notebooks "& such like stuff", a rare trip to town and the "pots" which are being made up for "good causes" all too frequently. I have managed to save about $150 out of Jan-Feb-Mar's pay. So you are going to be a farmer, eh? Gosh, I wish I could be there to make it with you. There's a lot of hard work to garden and a lot of satisfaction in the results, too. It's warm, spring-like here or, rather, like one of those days in June when its hot in the sunshine; cool-warm in the shade
