the piece. Ben Ivey was over with one of his horses this morning which has a very bad case of Fistulas Withers Dad. opened it for him but says he is afraid the horse is ruined I took Joe and Belle over and borrowed Ben's little orchard disks and worked up a piece on the north end of last years barley stubble which was plowed last fall and again this spring and which we never got our buckwheat in on for my experimental plots. I got from the Experimental Union this fall seed of winter Emmer and Winter Barley It worked up nicely but will need harrowing and rolling to smash the lumps. The roller is out of commission and I was going to take the harrows out this after noon but couldn't find our doubletrees except the ones on the waggon and I didn't have a clevise that would fit them so I finished disking it crosswise and left it. Frank worked all day for Ben and got fifteen dollars from him to-night Ben paid him two dollars a day Enah and the baby went down town this after noon Zeitha walked home before dinner. Flossie Shand was in this morning and invited Dad. and Enah to go with them in their car to visit Maimie to-morrow. Warmish

Sunday September 10th

The Shands came in the car this morning for Dad. Enah & Tid in time to get to St. John's church, then they had dinner and spent the afternoon at the Baker's and got back here to tea. Frank and I went down to church and Frank rode home on his wheel to do the noon chores and then came back to Aunty's for dinner Dick wasn't at church but got down to church dinner. Morton Brown the piano-tuner took the services both morning and evening. This after noon I went over to the Herring's to inquire after Louise as Lewis Woodson told me this morning that she had been in bed with her hayfever. She was up this after noon, however, and I was there all the after noon, Ada came over and we all three walked down town. Louise gave me a pressing invitation to stay to tea but as I didn't know that Dad. would be home I told her I had to come back to do chores but promised to be back after tea. I did go over but was rather late as I met Marj. & Glad Law coming out of church and walked down to the pier with them. When I got to the Herring's, Lewis & Louise had gone home with Ada, but they came back before I left, and I was there for about an hour. Mrs. Woodson invited me in on my way home to have a piece of cake and I was there for another half hour. Huby and Quint went to the Point yesterday with the Iveys and were to have been back this after noon. Cool and breezy.
