Friday May 30th

Dad. has been disking all day on the back field. He got all over it lengthways this after noon and started disking crossways. I finished mulching the little trees this morning and set out some tomato plants that Aunty Alice gave Enah. I also dug around some of the little poplar trees along the side road. While I was at that Pickford saw me and haled me over to look at his sow and crops. I was over there till nearly noon. This after noon Frank and I went out to Shand's after our barley seed. They had it all cleaned so we weren't out there very long. When we got back we took the little team back to the field and I harrowed till five o'clock. It was very hot for them. I went down town to-night. Aunty got home from London to-night. Fine & very hot

Saturday May 31st

We have worked on the land all day but as we had old Pommers in all day we had to give it to him easy. Dad. put him and old Harry on the disks this morning and I went around with him for about an hour with the rope through the bit, but as he soon cooled down, we didn't bother with the rope but Dad. walked behind the disks all day. He got pretty well tired out but is big enough to stand it. I had Queen & Belle on the harrows for a little while before dinner and this after noon. Queen rammed into it all day and as it was very hot they were wringing wet to-night. After tea to-night I took the buggy down to the mill and washed it and then had a shower bath under the flume. Got home soon after ten. Frank went down town to-night and says Quint is not home yet.
