Part 3

Every day the cows give us fresh milk. Ned brings the milk to the house.

I have some large tin pans. At night I put the fresh milk in these pans.

In the morning I find yellow cream on the top of the milk.

Then I take off the cream and put it in my churn.

I churn and churn till the cream turns to butter. I take the butter out.

I leave the buttermilk in the churn.

Here is one of my butter balls.

It is on a little dish.

Bennie and Marian like butter.

They like bread and milk, too.

All boys and girls eat bread.

Do you like bread and butter?

MARY AND THE BROOK

"Stop, stop, pretty brook!" Said Mary one day, To a bright, happy brook That was running away.

"You run on so fast! I wish you would stay; My boat and my flowers You will carry away.

"But I will run after; Mother says that I may; For I would know where You are running away."

So Mary ran on; But I have heard say, That she never could find Where the brook ran away.

REVIEW

Do you live in the city? Have you ever seen a farm? What does a farmer do? Where do the birds go in winter? When does the sun shine? When does the snow fall? What is as white as snow? Why would you like to be a sailor? Why do you love your home? Where do the fishes live? What can Bennie build with sand? How does Robert's mother make butter? What do boys and girls do at school? What does the clock tell Marian? What things are made of wood? What do you do on Christmas day?
