~ Hidden Timber, South Dakota
May 19th, 1933, Friday: Cool N. E. breeze and bright until toward evening, then real cloudy in west but passed south. The men got in water and I washed clothes and got them dry, also got the meals, but I can hardly walk in evening, so all in. Will, Narve and Wm castrated colts in a.m., then Will went in wagon to Furrey’s, got their car, and he and Fred went to O’Kreek, but no trees there and he brought lister back. Narvin and Wm met an Allen boy with their cattle, and after dinner he went home and they took to them to the big-pasture and brought in young steers calves to castrate that belong to Hugh Smith. Oscar Ross and son Alf brought 9 bu. potatoes for R.F.C. workers, and they have 10 bu. at home. Roland Wilcutt went by with a team of white horses.
