Sat JUNE 1. Rained all around some and a little here. I fixed up screen doors in the forenoon and in the afternoon I irrigated some in the orchard and some on the hill. Lew went to town in the forenoon and in the afternoon done sundry short jobs.

Sun JUNE 2. Pretty good today but rather cool on an average. Mother and I went up to John Dragers and had a very nice visit. I think that their prospects for a good crop is very flattering and I hope it will keep so until after harvest. Lew and Meda staid [stayed] at home like good children.
