May 6th. Saturday, a lovely day. Toby and I drove over to the farm early with Ginger and fish. Bell & Bobbie then burned a little brush in the orchard. Bill finished trimming the big limbs out for wood.Then we hitched up and went out and got the rest of the trees that Hubert had dug up and a couple of pieces for a stove boat. Came back and Bill made the bost. He did not work in the afternoon. Dick came home over to the farm about 11-30 with his dinner. Toby and I came home and hitched Joe with Bill and took over Fred's cow & calf. Hubert, Hattie & Lila went with us. Herbert set out rest of his trees and the others went to the woods for flowers.
