over to-night for a long visit during which Queen broke out of the pasture and caused us a lot of trouble getting her in, then I traipsed all over the pasture looking for the others and fearing they were out on the road but at last found them all safe in the pasture. Roy is thinking quite seriously of coming up here and starting a poultry ranch for the city market. I which he would. but.

Tuesday September 2th

Jonas came over this orning with a basket of tomatoes which he peomised us last night. He came before seven but if he had not been in such a hurry and left them to enjoy a few more sunny hours they would have been in much more better condition. I also bought a bouquet of about three asters, two gladioli & one geranium with one foot in the grave. It was very kind of him though.

Poor Frank went back to jail this. morning but got out for the afternoon. Dad. & I haule dout manure. We monkeyed around till after ten o'clock so only got out about 10 loads all day.
