Wolfeboro - Concord
Ther. [Thermometer] WED. JUNE 15, 1910 [Wednesday, June 15, 1910] Wea. [Weather]
Fine
Sunny & warm with light S.W. w.[southwest wind].
Rose early & visited our Academy
building to count Eave Swallows
nests under its eaves. There are
sixty-two, double the number
last year when all were washed
down by the hose at Dr. M's [Dr. Murkland's] orders.
They will not be disrupted again.
Breakfasted at 7.30 with 16 
women & girls, teachers & scholars.
[Miss Hester?] walked nearly to
station with me. Returned to 
Boston alone by 8.26 train.
  Did some shopping, called at
office & took 1.49 train to W. Bed. [West Bedford]
where Gilbert [Robert Alexander Gilbert] met me. Duren at
work in rear of Ball's Hill to-day.
The Melvins called soon after I
reached the Farm to invite me to
go to Monadnock June 17. I had
to refuse this [illeg.].
Concord
Ther. [Thermometer] Thurs. [Thursday] June 16, 1910 Wea. [Weather]
Dull.
Cloudy with light rain in P.M.
  Spent day at farm working
most of afternoon with Pat in
flower garden. Duren finished
spraying this morn. It is doubtful
if I do any more, as the 
results are disappointing, on the whole, 
at least in the woods. Duren &
I went through those along the
road to Bensen's where he sprayed
several acres about 4 weeks ago. 
Most of the sprayed leaves have since
been completely stripped. Duren admits
it did no good whatever. But in 
orchards & shade trees about house the
spraying has thus far been completely
successful. Nor can I see that it has
done the least harm to the birds.
