   It is said March borrowed three days from April to skin the old cow.

   If a Cuckoo is heard singing on a leafless tree in Spring it is a sign of bad weather. It is an old saying "sell the cow and buy the corn"

   It was an old custom for young girls on Hallow Eve night to go and look for a plant called yarrow and put it under their pillow. If this is done they will dream of whom they are going to be married to.

   If a person has a cow or calf die with black leg and if a part of the animal is put in the chimney as long as the part of the animal is in the chimney no cattle will die with that disease again.

   Monday and Thursday are the days for curing the heart.

   If a calf is born on Whit Sunday a sod should be put on its back. It is unlucky to go near water on Whit Sunday.

   It was an old custom for every family on Bonn fire night to light a bonn fire and when the fire is burned out it is lucky for the head of the house to throw the ashes on the crops.

   If you go around the house three times with the twig in your hand on Hallow Eve night you will meet the devil.
