they took them out of the waggon and they have been gorming grass ever since they got loose. Whit. was telling Huby and me all about his western experiences, he is sick of it. We sent down the biggest pig with Whit. Huby worked. Mrs. McBride was here all day housecleaning. Sunny with cool breeze.

Saturday May 2nd

After I did chores this morning I went over to Marton's and borrowed Art Quanbury's spirit level and leveled up my incubator and started the lamp going, I won't put the eggs in till I see how it is going to go. George Holden and his brother brought the fifty Carolina poplars and the two English wallnuts. I heeled them in the grarden and this after noon Huny and I planted them out. We planted thetwo allnuts ot in front. They were very healthy looking trees, and a good zize. It was pretty late when we got them planted so we just took ten poplars back to the gully, we put them out in the east end of the gully mostly on the flat. but a couple on the hill, we st=uck slips in all over mostly on any=t hills. We didn;t get back till about seven o'clock. Huby stayed to tea and he and Frank set fire to the bonfire in the orchard but it didn;lt burn well and they had to leave it after being out therev an hour or two. sunny and nice to-day but cool
