- Some farmers used on no account sell milk on May morning some time ago. Those farmers used also keep their cows in the stalls on May night. The reason for this custom seems to be that they feared the cattle would be interfered with on May morning.
It is believed that certain evil minded persons used work charms on the cattle on May morning. My Old Grand Uncle says he knows where cattle were charmed on May morning and that their milk for the following year used produce no butter.
