March
12, 1937 Jake, John, and I fenced. Jake and Anna were here for dinner. Mama and Mary sowed some in the garden –
lettuce and onions. Was cool and cloudy
and damp all day.
Spring work on the farm was moving into high gear. Fences needed to be fixed after the damage
done by a winter of tumbleweeds, wind, snow, and dust. Jake and Anna came over – Jake helped fix
fence and Anna no doubt helped get dinner ready to feed the hungry workers. In the afternoon wife Margaret and daughter
Mary worked in the garden planting rows and rows of onions and lettuce. Margaret bought lots of onion sets because
they sold very well to restaurants and townspeople in Meade and Dodge City.
