It has been a terribly hot day the thunder storm Sunday night did not cool things off. The horses nearly melted this afternoon.

Tuesday June 9th

I finished the shearing as there was one ewe we did not get done last night. Hubert and Toby went back to fix up the fence in the gully between Lacy and us I had my sheep finished and was putting on a load of manure when the boys got back. We hoped to have finished clearing out the old shed tonight but there are a few loads yet it has been another roasting hot day.

Wednesday June 10th

We finished hauling out manure at noon and after dinner I went down to Mr. Fleming's and got his diamond tooth harrows, it took some time to rig up a three horse outfit when I got back. Hubert helped me hitch Osprey with Joe and Ginger and I got in an hour and a half or so in the field. Toby was disking, if all is well we hope to get in a good ay tomorrow. Toby and rank went over to the McPhersons tonight with a bee hive so that accounts for my writing this.

Tursday June 11th
