Thursday October 27th

Dad. & I went over to Pickfords first thing this morning and found our two yearlings were with his cattle so with his help we drove them down the road and into the gully. We then came home and put off the load of clover seed and got another one, all that was raked up, on and off before dinner. Joe Field was over to ask Dad about a sick cow but didnt delay much. I went out right after dinner and raked up the clover seed north of the mangels and Dad. came out when he got the chores done and cocked about half of it up. When I finished raking I hooked on to the waggon and we put on what Dad. had cocked which wasn't quite a load. It was about half past four when we got to the barn and then Marj. and I went down and got a lot of plants from Miss McQueen. They are getting all ready for their sale on Saturday. Marj. stayed at the Bagley's for tea and went to the Bible study class to-night. I went down after tea to chart a couple more boys but they didn't show up. Marj. and I went up to the Bagley's for awhile. It was very mild all day & raining to-night.

Friday October 28th

It didn't rain much last night but we couldn't do any thing with the clover seed so I went down and got a load of coal as Clare Deal sent word over yesterday that there was a car in. I went over first and saw Billy Mills and borrowed their waggon as we can't use our old one. I went on down and saw McMullen and he said he would be over next week to buy a couple of ewes. When I got down town nearly to the track I met Harve Leany and he told me I would have to go to the canning factory to weigh as the scales were broken at the coal office, that delayed things and I didn't get home till nearly noon. This after noon I went down and got another load and then took the waggon back. Pickford came over after dinner and got another ewe for $6.50. Aunty & Marj. planted out a lot of the things we got from Miss McQueen. This after noon they all went over to the Martins. Dad. and Enah went down to choir practice to-night and I spent part of the evening cutting an ugly face in a pumpkin for Tid's benefit. It has been a beautiful day, very mild, fog to-night.
