medicine. He went and saw Huby and then came home and had his tea and went to bed soon afterwards.

This morning Daddy, Dick and I went down town in the wagon to get some potatoes and things for the horse. As we were going out the gate we met Bill Donald who was coming to plow for buck wheat. He had the horse with the sore shoulders with him for Dad to look at again.

We went on and got as far as Vyse's and I stayed there to help him fill up his spray barrel and when Dad came back he was going to help him spray Dick could not rise his wheel to school on account of the mud so he rode down with Daddy in the wagon When Daddy came back he and I went over home and he came back with old Harry to pull the pump around the orchard. When I got home I started to cut potatoes and kept on till noon. Daddy never showed up for dinner and after dinner I buried the old skunk and chicken. Then Dad came and went back and finished rolling the oats and I planted the potatoes I had cut and another half pail full. Bill Donald went down town with Bill to get his plow-shears sharpened. Daddy harrowed in the potatoes after he had rolled the oats. After tea I mowed a little lawn and Daddy went down to get a setting hen for Huby had a gift of ten turkey eggs It has been much cooler to-day with a wind from the nor'west.
