Dad. finished fitting the wheat ground to-day and has it in fine shape. I finished digging the potatoes in the garden at noon and got 11 bushels. This after noon I went over to the Preston's and helped old Walker clean up 18 bushels of seed wheat for ourselves. Enah was down all day judging at the flower show. There was very little there considering the good year it was for every thing. I went down to-night and found the band playing up there so went back to Aunty's and got my horn. Fine & cold wind.

digging the two outside rows to see if there is any difference between the fertilized and unfertilized but I can't see a particle, they are all beauties and a lot of them. Dad. worked on the land all day and Frank has been off thrashing with Alan & Sam, he is having a beautiful time as Alan lets him run the engine I went down town to-night with Aunty Alice's milk.
