Noun

1. {{lb|en|dialect}} A small [[pail]], [[can]], or [[ladle]] with the handle on the side; a [[lading-can]]. In the colonial era, some buckets were made like a small barrel, but with one stave left extra long. This stave would be carved into a handle so the bucket could be used as an oversized scoop for scattering grain, slopping the hogs, etc.
