Wednesday May 20th

Four o'clock for mine again this morning and I didn't feel so sleepy during the day as I got to bed at ten last night. I did have one little short snooze on the disks while the horses were resting. Water is getting retty hatd to find now, but I locaytted some on the wood to swab my eyes with. I got out soon after eight, and finished cross disking then hooke don the harrows and cross harrowed from where Dad left off till noon. Dad. didn't et out till tn o'clockowing to divers hindrances, so he started right in to drill. He put Jonas' oats in on the north headland they went two drill widths the width of the drill and qi=uite a few left over. He took out four big two bushel and a half bags and had the drill set for aowing 2 bushels and a peck and used all the seed and didn't quite finish to-night. so tere is something wrong as we didn't think there was more than four acres in the field. I finished cross harrowing soon after dinnwer and then took the disks back to the field accross the gully, anbnd got over quite a chnhk of it. Huby sowed clover and to-day on the piece of wheat north of the orchard he also cleaned up around the shop a lot. Dixck went to work to-day although he is far from well. It has been fine and pretty hot to-day.
