did mannge to give the privet hedge a final clipping and to cut back the honeysuckle bush so we could see out of the hyingroom window shrubs made such tremendous growth this year but my worst job li yet to come hundreds of bulbs to plant i hope ishall not run out of ambition before 1 run out of bulbs needless to say i did not buy such a large quantity of bulbs they were given to me and i was not prepared for quite so many there are always lots of jobs to do in the sprlngfept dont you feel there are even more in the fall and a greater urgency to get them done in spring the good weather is ahead in the fall no one knows how soon freexeup will come so we have to take advantage of every good day that dawns for doing out side work and also of any help that comes along probably that is

is now working much of this years crop is still out in the fields due to heavy and frequent rains judging by what one can see when driving along the road in this county all this years crop has been harvested here and thore one can notice a field of newly sown wheat coming up not as much as usual for the time of year as many farmers have evidently taken the advice of our agricuh ural representative and sown their wheat late to avoid damage from the hessian fly no doubt more wheat will be in evidence a week from now but not here we didnt put any in at all last saturday was the
