- Farmers used often make their own candles as follows -They procured shapes or moulds into which they poured melted Tallow - having first affixed a thread or cotton for a wick. These filled moulds they allowed to cool, and then by placing the mould to a fire for a short time, were able to draw out the made Candle.
