HARVEST time is always, in communities that live on the produce of the soil, an occasion for many customs whose origin is often lost in antiquity. Such is the serving of the ' Hollering Pot'—the jug of home-brewed ale with which the farmer's wife would reward the harvesters when, having finished their work, they sang the Harvest Chant. Mr. Ramsay will describe this and other harvest customs, many of which, though quite suited to appear in books of folklore beside the barbaric ceremonies of Africa and the East, are still being performed in English villages at this seasofi of the year.
