keeping rook- it is just as hot to do nothing as it is to keep on work ingwhich after mil is a comforting thought since one has to keep on working anyway however we did have a few days that were really en joyable for which i was very thank ful as our saturdaytomonday visit ors stayed for nearly a week they called it a holiday but partners bro ther was helping with the harvest all the time while jessie was giving ma no end of help in the house young betty was here there and everywhere apparently having a grand time re ally i would call them the perfect guests because they were even on time for breakfast while they were here we finished getting in the barley i say we be cause i was helping too t did some thing i havent done for years v worked in the mow the first two loads partner pitched off the shraves and colin and i placed them in the mow the rest of the loads were built on sling in case our nonfarm er readers dont know what i mean by slings perhaps i had better ex plain ropes specially made for tlie pur pose are laid across one half of the rack the sheaves are laid across the ropes first one way and then an other until a bundle is built this hi repeated three times

mow nnd then when the trip roto is pulled the tightly lucked sheaves drop tlown in the mow in one solid mass after the load has been dumped it u gcntrtilly one persons job to disentangle the sheave and place them where they should go it is hard work any time but at ninety- intheshnde temperature and under a steel roof it is really something you want to try it sometime i am sitting here by the

world going back to the other night i heard a very different sound v a terrific bang somebodys tire blown out pre sently i heard mens voices but they were too far off for me to hear what whs said which was probably just as well under he circumstances here is an item i must mark down in our fnrm diary august the 10th the day we got our first pullet egg and the chickens were hatched march 23rd not had eht here in another item but not one for rejoicing- we got word from our ttolrilcr son the other day that he is in a new brunswick has pltnl with a broken foot if it keeps him from going
