I have planted ginseng all day and to-night counted the seeds I had left and just have 565 so I will soon be through the job. I fthe seedsa all grow and the plants live and the Chinese keep on we=wantong ginseng roots I should make some money in six or seven years provided someone doesn't steal them. Frank and Dad. got started plowing to-day in the back field by the bush dad. ran out the ditches and struck out a couple of times and Frank threw out the sods and this after noon plowed. This was Frank's birthday. Rained a little.
