of those are good bushels, filled

and picking out the cracked ones
isn’t much of a Job.
Farmers used to be proud of
the quality of their wheat*. Forty
years ago the papers in extolling
a crop or a farmer referred to
quality.
A man grew so much
wheat and all No. 1. The boast
then was on quality, not quantity.
In fact, it is reasonable to suppose
that the loss of emphasis on qual-P

didn’t know anything about qual

anything called wheat.
