    Long ago before factories were made the old people used make what they wanted them selves. The way they used make candles was. They used stick a cord in tallow and then they would let it thicken.
    They used make basket's by getting a big sgraw and then they used stick rod's around in it and plat more in and among them and then they pull it out of the sgraw. They had tember ploughs long ago.
