Spent this day at the cow camp. Fine weather. Jim and Jack went with two of the cowboys to rope a steer. Took a number of pictures. Jim and Jack each riding the steer after it was roped. Bill Gray, one of the cowboys, and Sandy, the foreman, went duck hunting on the Red Rock River. Got ten ducks. Ethel, Mabel, Lulu, George and I drove down to the river to bring ducks home. Mutton pot pie and pumpkin pie for dinner. Very good. Bertha feeling better. In the afternoon too a number of pictures of girls and boys dressed in chaps. Girl's tent was let down in the afternoon when someone was in it. Little boys found pan of fudge that big boys stole and hid. In the evening Mabel tried to make cream pull candy. Had bad luck, it went to sugar, so she put some molasses with it and made molasses pull candy. Some of the boys helped pull it, others payed cards and read. Stayed up quite late waiting for the candy to get hard.
