Dear Miss Taft I am late with my letter. But Max wanted me to wait till he cleaned up on apples. we have been haveing some rain and fair weather to-day. rain one minute and clear an other.

About last year pear's I can remember of giving you the tally Because Max made two trips to town with 9 bushel and brought back 4 bushel. If I remember right it was $2.50 or 3.00 I dont know which money was used for farm expense. We enjoyed Alberta visit very much. she sure is a jolly & freindly girl.

Mrs Lardie called on Monday saying she wasen't home on sunday when Alberta was there and sure was sorry not to see her. as she liked her so much.

About apples, Max picked 48 bushel of welthy's had Tom take them to town. and Joe perkett sorted out 6.0. and 5 1/2. B. and rest went to Morgan. Max was so mad at him. So when he got home he jumped in his own car and went out and found a trucker. He found one at Homes paying .25 per bushel nearly tue [?] run [?] except little one. Max say thay were terrible small when he got to picking them

Thay came right to the door and got them loose. Thay loaded them into big screened truck. Joe perkett got pear's & crab apples. we got your letter just one day to late to take them to willbee Sent them by Tom the day before.

We are going to town to-day and get money collected up and send you a money order. Tony has engine done. and am sending the bill

I guess that all news Sincerly Max & Family

P.S. I am sending the pear's & apples tally on a sepertate sheet.
