    She takes the butter from the churn. Then she takes the butter milk from the butter with cold water. She mixes salt in the butter with a mixer. The mixer is made from wood. It is sometimes called a butter spade. Then the butter is put in prints. The butter is left on the printer. When it is lifted it is in prints.

    The tumbling church is round. It stands upon a wooden frame. There is no dash in it. One person works it with a handle. There is a glass on it to show when the milk is churned. It is air tight with a valved to let out the air.
