Old Mission Mich April 4th 1927

My Dear Miss Taft: - We have had another nice day but quite a cold wind. Joseph got the engine home but had to go after it. The spray engine works fine but it needs some small repair for the gun. It will be some time before the buds began to burst. He intends to put the dormant spray on tomorrow. The nights have been very cool & frosts too.

Mr. Lang brought the hay & there was 2,200# of it and nice hay too. Much better quality than we used to buy in T.C. How soon will Joseph receive the wire so as to put the new fence up? The pasture will soon be ready for the stock unless we have more know storms.

I saw George Helfnick yesterday & he said he woud do your gratfing as soon as it is warm enough. Joseph got axle grease & a curry comb when he was in town and ordered a small repair part for the Oliver plow.

I have tried to mention every thing of interest. No property changing. Roger is going to play for Easter exercises at chuch so is working hard at his music. Mr. [] is going to play with him. With love Essie K.
