this after noon, as we expect to haul peas again to-morrow {Name?} was over to-night and says they are so rushed down there he would like us to just haul half of them to-morrow and the others the next day. Dad. and I mowed away a lot of the hay this morning while Frank was raking and Dad. dug some post holes along by his potatoes as we want to let the sheep in on the pea stubble as soon as we get the peas off so will have to fence in the potatoes. To-night Dad. and I drove Queen down town and she went fine, we passed and were passed by automobiles at which she never looked, we drove up to Huby's and down to Aunty's and Dad settled up with Mr. Bagley.
