- The animals of the farm are cows and horses and pigs and goats. The names of our cows are Rony, Roan, Black Maol, Fancy, Cany, Bantry, Blossom, Blackie, Starry, the White cow, and Lily. When a man is driving cows he says howa, howa, howa, and when he wants them to stop he says Back here. He puts litter or straw for bedding. The cows are tied by a chain around their necks and the chain attached to a runner and the runner attached to a post. Some people have a medal hanging in the cow house(continues on next page)
