Excerpt from A Bushel of CornIn quite other directions I was drawn into a study of the botany of the cereals, from their embryos sleeping on a delicate villus of absorbing cells resting on beds of starch and sugar, up to their anthers, the filaments of which arise for their work of pollination, and stretch themselves in a moment of time, - to generate the new race of embryos, the little grass plants which form a of our daily bread.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
