Haymaking. Grass as it is mown lies in swathe (N. & S.W.) ; then it is 
turned (S.W.), preparatory to being tedded (N. & S.W.), or spread; then 
raked up into lines called hatches (N.W.), which may be either single hatch 
or double hatch, and are known in some parts as wallows (N.W.); next 
spread and hatched up again, and put up in small foot-cocks, cocks (N.W.), 
or pooks (N. & S.W.) ; finally, after being thrown about again, it is waked 
up into long wakes (N.W.), or rollers (S.W.), and if not made temporarily 
4 into summer-ricks (N.W.), is then carried. No wonder that John Burroughs 
(Fresh Fields, p. 55) remarks that in England hay ‘‘is usually nearly 
worn out with handling before they get it into the rick.” Almost every 
i part of the county has its own set of terms. Thus about Warminster 
- meadow-hay is (1). turned, (2) spread or tedded, (3) put in rollers, (4)
