Emphasis Preaching Journal

Growing up on a wheat farm, I learned quickly about reaping what you sow. Each spring, one of the chores that fell to me was vacuuming out the press drill. Before we began seeding a crop, I had to clean out the drills, cleansing from them stray weed seed that mice, birds and wind had deposited. Then, as we switched crops, my chore was to again vacuum out the remaining seed from the previous sowing, so that a new variety could be put into the drill.
