My dear little Ruth
Thanks a lot for my pretty may basket and letter and as soon as you find some wild flowers you can press them and send them to me. Say Ruth I will look for the paper you asked for and will send it later.
Tell mamma that I forgot John’s gopher trap. I just thought of it now. So I guess I had better write those things down so I won’t forget them again. The rain you had will make things grow fast now if it will only warm up.
Has Mitzi got over being afraid of the rake since it hit her on the tail? Has the old cat made friends with the puppy yet?
Say Ruth, mamma asked me to get garden seed but I can not find the list so will you ask her to write it down again. Well I guess I had better get back to work so by-by
with lots of love from Daddy
