what our potatoes looked like. The early ones are ready to dig but in the clay patch are two wet. I went on over to McBride's to see Tige but he wasn't home so I went in to see Ham Thompson. He was going to try to get some wheat in and so was too busy to help with the potatoes so I thought we had better leave it for awhile. Dad. plowed this morning and Frank dug potatoes in our own garden. Dick went down town right after break fast to wire Col. {Dyer?} that he wants to go to Siberia but didn't get any word back to-day He was down town all day and is staying down to-night. It rained a little at noon but soon cleared up and Dad. Enah and the baby drove down to see the Horticultural Show, Frank plowed all the after noon and I cut the lawn or at least part of it. It poured rain to-night but I went down town. I went up to the Flower Show but there was very little there so I went around and spent the evening with Marj. It cleared off but was cold and very windy when I came home.
