Cows wander in a field. A woman encourages them into the milking shed. Man sits and milks a cow. C/U of his hands. Milk is poured from a churn. C/U of woman's face - she is wearing an apron and cap. C/U of the fat being skimmed off the top of the milk into a bucket. The "plunger churn" is demonstrated. Woman shows different parts of the churn to the camera. She then demonstrates the plunging technique for churning butter using this device. She is wearing clogs. Clock reads 12 o'clock. She churns away. Clock reads twenty past twelve. Woman pulls curds from the churn to show camera then tips the contents of the churn into a bucket through a piece of muslin. She then lifts this into another bucket where it is washed through the muslin. The curds are then pressed between two boards.
The muslin is taken off and two wooden paddles are used to shape the butter into pats. An "end-over-end churn" is demonstrated. This is a larger churn. Cream is put into the churn and a lid fixed on. The churn is then turned by a handle. The clock reads 1 o'clock. More churning ensues. At twenty past one the liquid is let out of the churn through a tap. The lid is then taken off and the curds brought out by means of a spoon. The curds are placed on a board and covered with muslin. A roller flattens the butter and the wooden paddles are used to make it into one large pat. A "power churn" is demonstrated. This is similar to the "end-over-end churn" but is turned by electricity. Clock reads 2 o'clock. At twenty past two the churn is emptied by two women. C/U of the curds. Woman lifts them out on to a table. Butter shaped and cut into pats. Children at a tea table cut pieces of butter and spread them on to bread. C/U of girls eating their bread and butter.

The wee girl on the right at the end is my Nana! She's shocked that I was able to find it, and we show people this video all the time. Nana's father worked for Pathé, and she was scouted by a colleague of his. She was offered a contract, but turned it down, so this is the only video she did!
That’s so cool!
Oh I’m so glad you found this treasure of your Nana ! ❤
I've learned that in very old recipes, if it calls for butter, it's salted butter. If it says fresh butter, that would be unsalted. The salt preserved it. I love salted butter on warm bread.
I remember making butter at school by taking the cream off the top of the milk. It was the old third of a pint we used to get for free as a kid at school. Of all the things i ever did at school that really stands out for me
2 gallon and 1 gallon glass jars of fresh cows milk. Shaking them for hours or more, until,,, Buttermilk lumps appear,, then,, keep shaking. I think they were big mayonnaise jars or something like that. Never used a plunger or paddle churn, those were too fancy and expensive. Eventually we were gifted a wooden paddle mixer churn, manual crank of course. Forward, then reverse, forward, then reverse with no whip,,gently!. Best butter I ever had.

.no sound?
This video needs to be reuploaded with sound.
I wish this was in sound.
Me too! I wanted the Pathé sound track ....
Thanks for sharing that, I thought it was me.
Hooks up the belts and the power “let ‘er rip, Martha!”
She forgot her heels.😊
Is this where we get a "pat" of butter?
Thank you!
I was looking up a 1940 table I heard described in a inner sanctum radio show and this video was shown it sounded like a fourier table on the episode portrait of death.
The shoes they were wearing are intriguing. Anybody know what they are?
Maybe to cover the shoelaces for hygiene?
wooden clogs, probably to protect feet from heavy churns, and stomping cows feet 😁
Where's the sound ??
Home-made. For a farmer, three ways to make butter according to his income. I think one wouldn't be able to eat much of such butter at a time, just one slice of bread with it. Butter flavored with carotene (industrial production) is tastier.
Dayum!!

Looks unsalted.
This doesn’t look very hygienic
Yeast infection - that’s what it looks like before it’s drained and patted.
