Geo.A. Wilson, Arthur Stabler
and M.L. Bentley were the absent
members of the club at Wm [Cambys?]
5-31-1912. The guests were W.M.
Stabler, Frederic Stabler, B.IO. Palmer,
Mr Rlanford, Mr Jackson + Bro., C.G.
Wilson, R.B. Thomas and Albert
Stabler.
On the walk we went
up across the pasture field to the
right of the house towards the
old orchard. There was lots of clover
to be seen and it was very evenly
distributed over the field. The
old fruit trees looked as tho a
fair erop of fruit had been set.
The large corn field beyond, we
found to be greatly damaged by
cutworms and it were evident that
the "Early bird had got the worm"
this year. Our host asked the club
what was best to do with it. Some
were in favor of harrowing the worst
and planting again while others
thought that careful replanting would
do. A large field of early potatoes
looked promising as a did a field
for hay. The stock were in fine
shape and an early garden
furnished peas for a bountiful supper.
