15th. No fences are used in this part of Norway since there is a shortage of sizable timber, so the cattle are always accompanied by a girl. The only distinction between meadow and woodland is that the woodland has a few deciduous bushes whereas the meadow is quite smooth. They cut the woodland as well as the meadow, for the grass grows quite high in both even though the cattle graze there. The cattle are not driven home either at night or for milking. Instead, they are retained within a square fence that can be moved to wherever they are being milked; the purpose of doing this is to manure the meadows. Horses roam free, pigs are tethered, cows are milked 3 times -morning, noon and evening. Goats and sheep accompany the cattle.
