You can make your career, where 80 percent were with us in Kaltern all farmers, the exercise you can, because you needed back then, no study. Today, they also have to go too school. At that time it has not in use. That was only one wine - the grape is a wine only grown. And the more the better,'s has been called earlier. Who has not had much on it on the vines, but little has harvested has had the disadvantage. Together is only the mass - and now it's just back everything had changed. You can see well the wine - even a different system and everything, a different wine, is not. Today you can take as an easy drinking wine. And so that's just too completely different course to date. And yet modern or as one would say. And with the wine, it is limited because not only can go ahead because in the basement if you have after a car and a bissel're over it, then the license may have gone, or otherwise points inside and all that exists today. Well see myself, I'm too old for it on the street. But have to stop but go anywhere yet. But at that time - until 1962 so I can remember the last bull on the street was still covered. Where one is still down in the fields, until '62. Because I have myself to '58 or '59, I myself have had a bull and vineyards, a few vineyards. And then I stop's also given up and then, yes, I remember '62, I'm still in the bottom .. Kaltern an ox cart by cold that, I mean, the last has been. And later now and still a horse. Horses have been seen for some time, occasionally, horses. But the bulls are then gone. Then it took a while, where is still a bit left over cattle, and occasionally a cow, or they have bred pigs or goats. But for cattle or a strung cattle, there have been no more. After the engine is slowly come, and of course the older people have done it hard. They have been at all involved with the ox, the farmer can see that at all because they are there on the street it with motor cycling and riding with cycling, and there with the horse. Often they were very angry with a stick, at the very beginning. But after everything is gone. - - - Yes, yes, we then have the primitive life, and instead are using the ox - can remember many times - drove on Mendel, up there. And up there are mountain meadows, which has leased it in August and has camped above, the whole family. And is one month stayed up not on the Mendel, of the Mendel Pass, da. That was nice. Like half a gypsy life, but wait - but if once the hay was gone, you have a chat and bissel - and kept a little summer resort's has been told. Summer. The last wine they have been open on top. A barrel of wine. And then they turned back home. So by Jacobson to - this is so around the 25th July - to Bartlmä, which is 24 August, so about. That was a month almost, they stay up. With all cattle, and all they have mitgehabt. And now and then she had to go down again to get something, a food they have had so above. A meadow. Then they are down with food, then have something brought up a supply of wine and what it took. Then they had themselves grown a little wheat, barley and corn and potatoes before, and then they have taken everything. And up they then slept in the tent - a tent, not a cabin - now there's not a tent anymore. But sleeping under the tent. About ten, twelve .. ten, twelve people have often slept under there. It was quite romantic, NICT. Sometimes a storm comes, it has sometimes flashed on, and taken even further away and so on. But wait, yes - this one just has participated in childhood. - - - Until one has to give up. This is then .. that's never gone after. Because - with the cattle you can not exist on the street, then she loved - have already been vehicles .. . Tractors and such, they have introduced, and then it is with the cattle - has that been done. As I said - the early 60s and then it's been out. - - - And then the modern wine has come, as we have today. Only the quality has played a role, and then the automatic - everything is different. The vineyard has been modernized and with the help of irrigation, he has been so classified. Everything was natural. So how come the weather is dry or wet, so good, the wine must also survive it. Who have .. it was either too wet or too dry. And today, if today it is too dry - before it is already dry, sprinkle it already. Today, they have drip irrigation, do not you see yes, everything is different. These are all - what I say - that differences. Because if I do today would have wine, then I would have to make a school. Yes, that's never like there used to be. And each farmer had his wine barrels - say "Lebsbatzn" wine barrels in the cellar. I still have old wooden barrels below. If you wish to visit .. But every wine made. And containing a light wine, which has - which is the second time on the grains were again brought to ferment with a small amount of sugar and mash it, and was then filled with water, and has everything fermented again. Then it was a lovely wine to drink during the work. A "Leb" man was called that. A Lebs! - - - Yes.
