- (continued from previous page)calving. Some people don't like to give away milk on May day. Also they don't like to give it away without putting salt on it. It is unlucky to strain milk before you give it away.
- There is also a machine for churning. It is made thus:- First there is a long coil of iron beside the roof of the dairy. Then there is a long pole going from one gable to the other. In the middle of this pole there is a hole into which the the dash is put. At the end of the pole there is another pole or stick coming downwards and the person catches this and thus the churning is made.
