Each cow puts her head into a separate bail and the loose block is then tied in against the cow's neck. By this means the cow cannot release herself. All the bails are out from the wall so as the food might be put inside them. All the bails are made by carpenters.
When the cows calf salt is rubbed to the calves in order that the cow might lick the calf.
