I helped Rex plant some peas and beans in the garden and I hoe'd the cucumbers and beets. It has rained so much that it don't look like our garden will ever do any good. Mother, Robert & I went to the field where Rex was working and took him some ice water. I read some this afternoon and also tonight. I don't feel well today.

I made 2 cakes this Morning . One for today and one for Sunday. O.D. Ramsey, Jean and baby. Eva (O.D.'s sister) husband and baby came this afternoon. James Fredrick talked awful to Mother this afternoon. Mother got up and came in the house. She didn't want to fuss with him. I read some this afternoon & Robert & I took some ice water to the field where Rex is working.
