Tuesday September 9th
Frank took Joe down to have her front shoes set this morning and Dad. and I tried to plow out in the old corn stubble with Pommers & Harry but had to stop as the shear was too dull. The ground is very hard and the flies & heat drive poor Pommers about crazy. Dad. came up and ground down one of the cast shears on the grind stone and we went back after dinner and it went fine. It was much cooler this after noon too. Frank took a grist to the mill this after noon with Belle & Queen.
