Dewitt’s Diary: Tuesday, February 26, 1974
Temperature 10 Cold. Some snowflakes. Did some work in the cellar. Went to town
with Leland. Took a bushel of potatoes down to Dawson and some beans (1/2
bushel).
Put my saw buck together.
Cold today, a high of 30 degrees. Strong west
breeze.
People who have even license plate numbers can buy gasoline on
even days only, odd number licenses on odd days. This is the law starting this
morning in N.Y. state.
Gasoline and the gasoline shortage the main talk of
everybody for the past month. Much less traffic on the roads.
