- We have a churn It is four feet high. It is eighteen inches wide top and bottom. The churn is in the shape of a barrel. It is twenty years of age. There are two parts in it, the churn and frame. There is a number on the lid 2e. Butter is made three times a week in Summer and once a week in Winter. The household take a turn a the churnings. Strangers help when they come in, There is an old superstition that if they did not churn "The would take the butter with them" It takes a half an hour to do the churning. It is churned by hand. The churn-dash is moved up and down and at the end it is rolled from side to side to gather the butter. When the butter sticks on the lid of the churn it is made. Water is poured in to help to separate the butter from the milk. It is lifted by means of a scoop and put into a wooden bowl. After being washed several times it is salted. Butter mild is used for making cakes and feeding calves and pigs
