Old Mission Oct. 1931

Dear Miss Taft

We nearly forgot to write It has been such beautiful weather one's enjoy's ever hour. I dont suppose there will be many more nice day's

We have all kinds of music since hunting season is on Max went twice but diden't get anything.

The brush on the road side is cut at last. and Max got the wood nearly a cord. It sure makes it a lot nicer with it cut.

The pumpkins is harvested (over) and there was 140 ripe ones 15 Greenones + not fully matured 7 bushel of Carrots quite small 20 bushel Beet. and there was 70 bushel of corn off the piece in little orchard and the corn run pretty good. in quality

The other piece by wood 60 bushel. and that had not very good corn.

Did I tell you that Mr Richards want .10 cents hundred for hauling.

Morgan is paying .15 cents hundred know. and isen't taking any right know.

Max say he is going sell the good Balwin's to Kay Holmes and don't how much yet but he is paying more then any one else.

Ronald is at last walking and sure is a lot better natured. to.

The cow sure enjoy the pumpkins

I saved some of those summer squash seed. for next year. and feed rest of squash to the pigs and there was about 12 squash and there still string bean coming yet. I got about 8 ripe tomatoes off your vines

The Maple tree's in front of house is just a green as they ever was. till this week and they are turning a little. But tree's in wood are colored up beautiful.

I am still canning. But am near my end - have an other batch of quince jelly to make and will be done.

Max is going to buzz wood this coming week.

Max say there two beach trees on the south side of pasture that are dead. Max has the pasture all plowed.

I guess that all the news for this time.

Sincerly Max + Family
