Wednesday October 22nd
Frank and I went up to Ham's this morning to help him fill his silo and were there till about half past three when we got it full, they had a good run. I was in the silo all the time tramping. I think Dad. put the pork in pickle. I went down town to-night. Fine day.
Thursday October 23rd
Frank went over to Jack's to fill silo this morning and was over there till about three o'clock when they finished. I went out with Dad. this morning to help him get started plowing as Pommers was feeling pretty frisky. I spent the rest of the fore noon picking apples and only got about two basketsfull, they were so scattered on the trees. I went out after dinner and helped Dad. strike out and then came up and shingled. Dad. has had a very lame knee to-day.
Friday October 24th
Dad. has plowed all day, his knee was much better Frank & Tid. went down in the buggy this morning and got a few tile to fix the end of the tile drain out at the side road. This after noon he has done odd jobs. I have been shingling all day on the chicken house roof. Went down town to-night. Fine & mild.
Saturday October 25th
Dad. started to plow this morning and I did a little more shingling but early in the fore noon it started to rain and we had to quit. Dad. got soaked coming in from the field. Tom came in and he was pretty well drenched too. Frank went to Simcoe to get some plow shears. It rained pretty much all day. I didn't do a thing but sit around the house and read.
Sunday October 26th
Raining again this morning but not hard and Frank and I went down to Sunday school, the rest came down to church. I stayed at Aunty's for dinner and Marj. & I spent the after noon at Miss Martin's. I came home early and helped Dad. do chores as Frank was off at the Ward's with Gilly and Dad. Enah & Tid went down to a duck supper at Huby's. Rev. Skey was there. I had my tea alone and went down to church and spent the evening at the Monteith's.
