More Dust

April 13, 1935  Dust storm from the south.  John one-wayed some.  Jake __________ dust.  Mary planted cabbage and tomatoes in the garden.  They also did Saturday’s work.

After a one-day respite, the dust blew again, this time from the south.  John one-wayed, not realizing that the one-way was pulverizing the soil and contributing to the blowing dust.  Jake did something with the dust, probably shoveling it out of the fences and buildings.  Despite the dust, Mary bravely planted in the garden because a hungry family would need the fresh vegetables.  And dust or no dust, Saturday’s work had to be done to bake tweeback and to clean the house to make it presentable for Sunday, the day of rest.
