Plowed Sixty Acres Herself
“Last year I plowed, leveled and harrowed thirty acres and cut all father’s hay, put up 300 quarts of fruit and vegetables and had a war garden. This year I plowed sixty acres all myself, harrowed and leveled it—wheat, alfalfa and beets—and helped father plant and cut and irrigate. I have put up fruit and vegetables—600 quarts—besides drying fruit and vegetables, and have baked the bread, and on Saturday and after school I have to plow until the ground freezes up, and finish in the spring, 1919. I am going to take the first prize away from the boys in gardening, in the Utah state fair.
“I attend the Cypress High School. When I finish there I am going to go to the Utah Agricultural College.”
