Tuesday July 11th

It took Dad. and me till noon to cock up the rest of the corner field and Frank finished cutting the other field by noon, he left the south west corner of it for alsike along with the wheat stubble next to it. He went down and got the mail after dinner and I got a letter from Lloyd Jones inquiring about the lambs Douglas had told him we had some nice ones. I wrote him to-night. We got one load in after dinner but spent all the rest of the after noon getting the car on the track and the ropes & pulleys in place ready for business, we just got our load off about six. Mrs. McBride was here to-day. It has been a fine hay day.

Wednesday July 12th

We got three loads in this morning but didn't put the last one off. We got out pretty early but Lloyd Crysler delayed us a little, he was in telling Dad. about a lame cow he had. Dad. said he would go over and see it if Lloyd would call for him at 4.30 but he didn't come. We have been getting out earlier lately as we all get up at five o'clock and Enah has breakfast ready before
