Cleveland. -Seeds, sold 'tin packets,
seem to possess"a very negative' back-
ground: Actually a vast •industry .has.
sprung'•up in the United States, spread
,, over :the whole continent. - "The' rais-
ing of seeds is a specialized field all of
its own,"' declares a: nationally known
s'e'edsman "and • due to varying cls-
uratic conditions in'•various parts of
• the world' many foreign countries can
produce better seed of certain plants
than seedsmen. in the United States.
For that reason many varieties are im-
ported from other countries. • I '
Cabbage From• 'Denmark
The Danes, because of their long" ex-
perience . and the, favorable climatic'
conditions in Denmark . produce�.the
hest cabbage and'caulifiower seed in
the world. The best sweet corn seed
in the world is grown by Charles
Clarke, at Wakeman; Ohio. •
In flowers, the•lfest zinnias Lseed are
raised by an Eiegif bran just outside
of Lbs. Angeles, iip_has 140 ,acres:de-
voted to this and Other flowers. • The .1

After a crop of .seed has been raised '•
and cured', the see* find their way into
the hands of distributors. The method
in *hick they are tested in the distri-
butors'.,plants is I interesting.
' ' Some ,o4 the larger seed -companies
handle from 3,000 to 5,000 .different
kinds and grades. Before they can be
put on the tnarket'they must be tested
for germination quality and to deter-
mine whether they' are true to type.
The seed bre wrapped in blotters,
about 50 to each, blotter, and placed in
• germinator where the warm, Moist

• Frequently pollen from'another type
plant of the same species finds its. way;
to the Seed grower's lot. This pollen
fertilizes his plants and the resulting
seed from 'his crop will' produce •a•
flower or ' fruit with mixed character-
istics of both plants. This is often ob-
'served' _ in corn -the ears bear both
white and yellow' kernels.
After the seed is tested for its pro=
duction .qualities; it is then weighed
and packed for distribution. This pro-
cess is almost entirely mechanical.
A delicate' scales that will divide a
pound •into 2,500 parts is brought . into
use.. The seedsman determines from
'the cost of the seeds •just how •many
he should include in'a package to.pay
him. .He divides a pound of seed by
this scale into the required riuhber of

II. RECONCILIATION, vs. 3-7. .
Jacob himself 'went forward • atthe
head of his company- When he net
Esau he showed homage such ; as was
ordinarily shown only to a king. Seven
times he fell to the ground before the.
brother whom he had wronged. In the
Tel -el -Amara tablets, written •by tkt
pre -Israelite kings of Canaan to the
Pharaoh of Egypt, about. B.C. ••1500,
some -of the Canaanite kings state in
their Tetters, "Seven and seven times
fall I down at'the 'feet of the king, my
lord." Jacob's action, then, was that
of a vassal before his liege -lord; such
deferential courtesy as in a royal; per-
son was intendedto' win back' the soul
of Esauto him.. In, all this polite
homage, however, •-Jacob was -only
knocking at an open door. .For Esau
had forgotten all, .and forgiven all.
]ibis attitude here was truly • noble.
,'Swift 'to 'become angry and, swift to
forgive, he was a man of strong im-
pulse; . His i'mpulsiv nature *owed
itself in the way in which he embraced
Jacob ' and ,. kissed him. Jacob; the
wrong=doer; showed .deference, as be-
fore one ' higher_ than himself, but
Esau, the wronged, 'showed real affec-
tion. Thus .these alienated, brothers,
long held apart, were happily knit in
brotherly love again. One writer re-
marks, "Genesis is a book•of reconcilia-
ions.•Families are for a time estrang-
ed and one brother wouldnot be sorry
According to:32: 7, Jacob, who was.
taveling like a chieftain with his com-
pany,. divided his people, flocks and
herd§ into two companies and sent
them ahead to meet Esau. • From 32:
8, it is plain tha this Was a precau-
tionary measure, bated on :fear a
Esau. Love, however; had. now cast
Out fear, and made th inecautIon use:
questioned him concerning one of these
conipanies which he had already met,.
Jacob seized the opportunity, and
offered them as a gift. It was a token
that the reconciliation' Was sealed and
comnlete. Esau showed his generous
nature by declining `he gift; ,Jaeob
showed his, humility by pressing P..
He carried his courtesy so far' that
he 'compared Esau with God himself,
•whose face one sees only with. feat
and apguish. "I have. enough," •said
Esau, v. '9. 4cob also said "I have
enough," v. 11. Yet Jacob said this
with a -difference: He said, "Take my
gift because God hath dealt gracimisly
with me, and because I have 'enough."
Both brothers claimed' to have enough,
but Jacob saw that his sufficiency was
of the grace of God.. For, all his faults
