look at the cattle. After he left Frank and I went to the mill and got our chop and I went over to Tuppers when I got home. Tupper was down town when I got there but came home before I left and said he thought he could manage his chores himself from now on. I borrowed a setting hen from him. To-night I went down to band practice. Al. Faulkner has been cutting up again. He got on a tear Saturday and went up Main St. in his car about dark at 40 or 50 miles an hour, ran into Bruce McQueen and his wife who were coming down in a buggy and hurt Mrs. McQueen very badly. Cloudy and cool. Tuesday April 29th Frank and I went to Simcoe this morning in the waggon and got four bags of Irish Cobbler potatoes for seed, {illegible}, oil cake, bran, & feed flour from Johnson. I went in to see Neff about my Dairy Profit competition and Frank went to get some ledger plates for the mower and some stumping powder but he couldn't get any. We had Joe & Queen and as Queen hasn't been out all winter we had to let her go pretty slowly and it was about three o'clock when we got home. Dad spent the day I think helping Enah house clean. Nice day, sunny, cool breeze. Wednesday April 30th Frank and I gathered up most of the shingles off the lawn this morning and put them in the wood shed and Enah raked it this afternoon. Dad tore off some more shingles from the north side of the dining room roof as Charlie said Art would be over this after noon and then he took the team back to harrow the side hill. Art. came after dinner and he and Frank shingled all the after noon. Dad. took the team back and finished harrowing the side hill and I cleaned out the cow stables and then went back and disked on top the hill and Dad. came up and helped shingle. It doesn't work too badly but looks like more rain to-night. Neff was on for a minute or two this morning and brought us some milk preserving tablets. I went down town to-night. Nice day and sunny but east wind. Thursday May 1st It has rained most of the day and so we have done no outside work at all. I spent most of the morning filling in my Dairy profit and egg sheets
