Tuesday July 6th

I was over home all day to-day and we finished getting the alfalfa in in seven big loads and a lift. Dad. & Frank put five in yesterday making twelve loads off that field. Andrew Lowe came out here this morning and I left him to cock up the rest of my alfalfa and do some hoeing. Ina was here all day and Marj. drove her home and took Andrew as far as Pickford's corner. Hot & very dry
