Charlie and Art Quanbury drove in this morning on their way oout to Tupper's so I rode out with them. This is the first day Art. has been out of bed since he was taken sick a week or more ago, so I think he is plum crazy but maybe not. Frank rode down town on his wheel to tell Aunty Alice that we would likely not be able to attend her theatre party to-night if we had to thrash late and he rode on out to Tupper's on his wheel.I went over to Charles's place with the boys and helped them pit on a load of wheat out of Charle's barn as they wanted to thrash a load for seed. They thrashed at first and then started at Tupper's out of the field. He hadn't a sheaf in the barn. I haule din with Tupper' =s yteam and waggon all day, and we worked from till after six. The wheat was in awful shape, but the oats weren't so bad. he got 416 bushels alto-gether and 44 of them were wheat. Faiurly cool but sunny all day.
