He puts her in a shed in the Winter and feeds her well. He puts straw and ferns under for her a bed. The farmers stalls the cow or ties them with a rope around the horns onto the wall.
    When a person is milking a cow he milks her across and when she is milked he puts the sign of the cross on her with milk.
    On May morning the people take the milk of other cows in some superstitious way. It is very seldom done.
