- (continued from previous page)cabbage and grain crops such as oats.
Weasles kill fowl and rats they make their nests in stone or sod walls.
Once there was a girl out in the country, every day she used to feed a weasle with bread.
When she was going to America he accompanied her as far as the station.
It is said that he was there again to meet her when she came home.
If a weasel spat on you he would poison you.
Or if you tramped your foot at him he would poison your food to kill you.
