Monday May 3rd

Frank and I went up to Miss McCoy's this morning and got another load of hay. It was after noon by the time we got it home and off. Dad. harrowed crossways on what we sowed this morning and Frank finished harrowing it this after noon and started in disking the corner field. Dad. and I hauled out the manure I had weighed up for my plot and some more which we mulched some of the little poplars along the side road with. We then brought the plow out of the corner field and ran the ditches in the sowed piece and Dad. started to plow the head land in the corner field. Winnie came over to tea to go with me to the party to-night. Frank had arranged to take Kathleen Kinsular and Jennie Ward so he had to take them out first then come back and get Win & me. We had a very good time out there. Bobbie Mc.Milland was the orchestra and Fred Krill the master of ceremonies, there was a good crowd out there and lots to eat. Frank drove Win & me home about one o'clock and then went back after the other girl

Thursday May 4th

Frank and I had to go back to the back field first thing this morning to get the cattle out of the woods as they had knocked down and broken a bar. I then drove Win. down to the bank and when I got home Frank and I put on a load of manure and took it down to Aunty Alice. We brought home some posts from Jack Reynolds to put along the road for a fence. Dad. plowed the head land in the corner field this morning and he and Frank worked on it this after noon. We are going to work up just half of it for oats and put corn on the rest of it. I did chores and sowed my last experimental plot with oats. I went down town to-night.

Wednesday May 5th

Dad. & Frank worked on the corner field all day and hope to have it ready to drill by to-morrow after noon. I went out and burned some old rubbish in the corner field that had been along the old fence bottom, then I cleaned out some ditches in the sowed field. Frank and I treated some more oats this after noon and a little barley which Frank went down to the mill for. Remembering our last experience we were determined not to do the job in the granary again so we cleaned off the barn floor but that took a long time so that by the time we got done, there was no time to do any thing else much. Frank went out and sowed two kinds of Spring Wheat on the plots. I went down to band practice to-night. Aunty Alice was over here to tea. Fine & warm all day but it freezes every night.

Thursday May 6th

Dad. & Frank worked all morning on the corner field and drilled it in this after noon with the big drill.
