   The wells were throroughly cleaned out on May-eve. Salt and lime were placed at the bottom of the empty well and it was allowed to fill. Bark of the boretree was entwined in the tails of the cows as a charm against disease, accidents etc. The children gathered around the may-bush which they decorated with may-flowers. It was considered unlucky to bring any of the May flowers into the house afterwards.
