My Dear Miss Taft:-
Am sorry you are not well it is so hot most of the time that even here it is very uncomfortable.
Joseph, Hazel & I have had that stomach & bowel trouble & were very sick with it. I came down sick a week ago & still feel weak & don't want to eat. if I do those dreadful cramps start up. This has been one of the most nerve racking summers I ever put it because the heat has been so dreadful.
We have had 2 nice rains during the past week & very strong winds. The telephone lines are out of order most all the time & the apples will all be on the ground if this keeps up much longer.
It was over 80 last night at 11 o'clock so that was the cause of our dreadful wind storm.
Went to T. City Fri. morning with Tom Lannin & banked your money. Chas. Lannin paid for Spot & I have some of her corned for fall use. She was nice beef.
I told you I would go to town with who ever came along so I did. Don't like to have your money laying around the house. He came over to tell Joseph that he had 51 bu. of oats for you. They are very nice full ones & very clean. They hired an out side Threshing Machine from out side that came down here to do the work. Mr. LaBatts out fit leaves the grain quite dirty besides a lot of oats goes out in the straw.
Well there is no more to write about. pastures & meadows looks much more alive. They will come all right.
