Thursday June 23rd

I hoed mangels this morning till nine o'clock and Frank hoed in the garden & Dad. did chores, by then the dew was off and we went out and shook up the hay where the alsike was heavy & green. Then Frank got the rake & raked the far side first and before dinner the heavy spots were fit to rake. Dad. & I cocked up for awhile before dinner and we all went at it this after noon and got it all up by to-night. Tom. Butler went by this morning with a load of pear and threw off a couple of forkfulls which were loaded. Dad. Tid & I shelled our hats full and took them up to the house for dinner and and Marj. came out with us and got two basketfulls more. To-night I went down to band practice & Marj. went with me & waited at Aunty's. Mr. & Mrs. MacElvie came to-day and are down at Aunty Alice's now. Chris gave us a ride down and all the way home in his car. Very hot.

Friday June 24th

Frank and I changed the rails and fixed up the bay over in the big barn to haul hay this morning and we moved the calves over there from the old barn. We hauled in one load of hay and pitched it off in the horse stable before dinner had an early dinner and hauled in three more this after noon, one we pitched off to feed to the bulls and the last one we left standing in the barn floor. Mrs. Walker brought Aunty Alice & the MacElvie's in for a few minutes this morning. They were just out seeing the town. Dad. & Enah went down to-night to see them and took Jack Martin down as they are both such admirers of Sir Arthur Meighen's & Mr. MacElvie has come direct from Parliament. Marj. & Frank went down to the Bible Society meeting to hear a native Chinaman Mr {Wang?} speak and Tid. & I stayed home to go to bed early. Dick was over for tea. Hot but nice breeze
