Miss Taft I got the new horse Friday I like the horse first rate so far. it has a little swelling on the right hind leg they said it was caused by scratches and wouldn't do any harm. The oat ground is about ready and we will put them in Wednesday. Ledgers mower pole didn't fit it wasn't thick enough so I took the other one to Crampton to have him make one. The first spraying has been done. The grafting has been done four hours .20 an hour and .25 for grafting wax. he had to do it alone because I was spraying. there is between 60 and 75 bu. of corn yet. I think there is enough seed corn. Parker didn't have any seed potatoes so I got 2 bu. Early Rose potatoes in Traverse and Mrs. Stutsman paid for them .50 a bushel. I set the four cherrie trees that came to replace the ones that died. Stutsmans have the cow and calf. Ledger has a Ford car. Every thing is all right Ralph
