  1. We have a churn at home.
    It is called a churn.
    It is three feet in height.
    It is one and a half feet wide at the top and bottom.
    It is made a long time.
    The names of the different parts of the churn are :
    The dash, the lid, the barrel, and the claibin.
    There is not any mark on the side or bottom of it.
    We have a churning once a week in Winter and twice a weaken Summer.
    It is a churn that was bought in a shop.
    If a visiter came in while the churning is on he would no be let out without churning it for a little while, because it is said that he would bring the butter off with him if he did not
