Wednesday April 30th

This morning we planted out the four little trees which I had dug up, then we went over to see what the field looked like, it is getting pretty dry, from there we went over to see if Sam Law's wheat was any better than ours, but it wasn't. We found him over trimming up the limbs he had cut out of his orchard. As he was just contemplating a visit to Alfred who was disking the other side of the hedge we made a joint attack and sat around over there for about an hour. so by the time we had wandered back home it was noon.

This after noon instead of working on the field as we had thought of doing,we took our wheat down to the mill. I went down and harrowed some sacks from Blight and we had to make two trips of it as the ground was a little soft. We had eoighteen hays and it went over two bus {bushels}. to the bag, that job took up all the afternoon. Tonight I went down to band practice and came home with Dick. The school. board were having a meeting, we heard afterwards that Mr. Ivey called it but as none but kickers attended it soon adjourned with ut anything being done except Old Stringer falling down staits comingout so Pud. Slocomb says. Nice day Mild & sunny cool breeze.
