Answer 1

Hello, if I don't misunderstand I can read "driving" but I can't decipher the other word sorry

Yep, it's that second word I am struggling with.  

Driving <????>

Laborer?  Teamster?  Teacher?  Nothing seems to fit.

Answer 2

I think it is driving team.  The t matches the one in school Teacher on a line above.  His e is clear, the a matches the open topped a that appears in a lot of the words farmer in other lines.  That leaves the three humped letter m.

He was a sloppy writer though.  Glad I could be of help.  Just passing it on, as the expression goes.
