Journal Entry

May 27, 1870 ~ Friday

27. I spent most of the day drawing a waggon sheat through my
grain to katch grass hoppers we caught many bushels but still
the Earth was nearly covered it seems a vary hard method
to save any grain this season on my farm they have Eat
my wheat Barley oats & corn & it looks as though we not
raise any thing. But I would rather have a grass hopper war than
a gentile war I went home in the Evening
