    In this district there are certain days considered to be lucky and other days considered to be unlucky to start any work on.
    You should sow plants between the new-moon and full-moon in March so that you would have them early.
    The people in this district always plough of a Friday because it is considered to be very lucky.
    Monday is an unlucky day for removing into a new house because if you changed on that day people say that you would be frightened in the house.
