My beans that were planted just a week ago are up & my tomatoes have begun to grow & to blossom. the ones I planted in a box are growing fast since the hot sun pours on to the them & I muched [[mulched]] them also with that fertilizer I got of Bobbie. I guess my garden is going ahead in spite of dry weather. the lilacs are going by my snow ball bushes are looking good & full of blossoms the spireas also the deutzier [[deutzia]] is open also my pink bush & the dogwood never was so beautiful the buttercup bushes are going past. I may give flowers to Gertrude but there's no way of my decorating. I suppose Alice & Myrtie would like flowers for their lot in the old plain cemetery. well I will carry my letter down to the corner & get some bread at the little store for supper.
Ma
