Frank didn't finish till nearly dark. I sowed all the clover seed we had left on the side road field this morning, it went over about to the first water hole. I had dinner about ten o'clock and then went up to Charlie Trinders to see the Shorthorn sale of his & Ham Thompson's. I did think of going up on the eleven o'clock car but changed my mind and walked up through the Cedar Swamp and Dean's Hollow. It was a beautiful day for a walk and I just poked along and enjoyed myself. I got a ride home with Lloyd Crysler who had taken John Wess. Charlie Butler & Wilbur Ryerse up. The sale was very poor. Trinder's stuff was in poor shape and small and although Hams looked pretty nice the bidding was very slow and every thing went for grade prices or less. Lloyd Crysler & John Wess each bought a bull. I went down town to-night and ran races and jumped with the boys. Came home early & went to bed. Friday May 7th Frank had a couple of bags of seed left over last night when he got the piece sowed that was worked up so as it was treated we thought we had better sow it. Dad. has been working up five more lands all morning Frank drilled it in this after noon and then disked over the plowing that was left to keep it from getting too hard. We went down to Alfred's first thing this morning and got six more bags of oats for feed, we then went down to the mill and got four bags of some new feed mixture to feed the bulls. Then as the cattle were all in the back field again, we went back and put them out and stretched some more barbed wire. Frank came up and harrowed and I went over to ask Cam. McBride if he would like us to give him a day to-morrow he seemed very pleased at the prospect. He was just finishing up his field plowing and is afraid he won't get any more in. I went from there over to Charlie McQueen's to ask him if there would be any chance of renting his place this fall but he said he guessed not. This after noon I cleaned out a few ditches did chores and went over to ask Art Quanbury if he would rent Charlies place but he said not. I went down town to-night. Fine & warm. Saturday May 8th I went over to Cam McBride's first thing this morning with the harrows and was over there till nearly six harrowing. Cam. got his field in to-night with the broadcast seeder. I harrowed ahead of him and then went over it after him so harrowed the field nearly over twice. Charlie Munroe came over and harrowed too all the after-noon. I came home before tea much against Cam's & John Wess's wishes and forgot the halters and left them in the barn where the horses had been tied at noon.
