My Dear Miss Taft:-
Received your address so will send you a few lines.
The weather has been very cool & a little rain not much last night had a frost hurt quite a little corn on the new land where the weeds has grown up. Where Joseph had them cleaned out it did not freeze isn't it queer?
Cherries are coming just fine light sweets will soon be ready to pick will have Mr. Lardie take them up.
The alfalfa was put in the day you left in a fine condition Jos. will haul more hay in tomorrow from Stutsman's he will have quite a little from over there.
He got the carrots hoed out & they are coming on fairly well. The frost didn't hurt my garden any so far. There will be loads of peas after you return.
Am very sorry about the corn but hope it will come on again but some of it looks pretty sick.
Received cabbage & lettuce the same day you left & thanks many times.
Mrs. Stutsman wrote to Mrs. Mills & told her she might have a table there & said if you were gone for me to go into the house & get it for her. I didn't want to do it but with Mrs. Stutsmans asking me to I knew you would not care. You had left the padlock open so I locked it up safe & sound. I hate to go into any ones house & hope I don't have to again while you are absent. Thot I had better tell you.
I got a quart of oil at H.M.L. store & oiled the kitchen floor it is a lot darker but will be easier to keep clean. You told me over a yr. ago I might do it but neglected to do so then.
I think the Mont. Cherries will be ready to pick around the 15th or 20th of July if the weather warms up a little.
Sat. it was so cold I had to make a little fire in our large stove to take the chill off from the living room.
Well I must hurry so as to mail this. Hope you receive it & not have it happen like my last letter to you.
Hope to see you next week.
With Love, Essie.
