 ada and an aggregate annual business 

 of many million dollars. Mr. Massie's 

 election to these positions is regarded 

 by seedsmen as an honor not alone to 

 him, but to the Minneapolis seed busi- 

 ness, because he is a product of the 

 local industry. He has been engaged 

 in the seed business in Minneapolis fdV 

 twenty-one years. He came from Scot- 

 land in 1891, a lad of 19, with no quali- 

 fications but a common school education 

 and bringing up on a farm. He began 

 work with the firm of which he is now 

 one of the heads, his first duty being 

 turning a fanning mill in its seed clean- 

 ing department. Since that time he has 

 served in practically every department, 

 been traveling salesman, made journeys 

 to Europe and seed centers elsewhere to 

 study methods and has been head of 

 several of the firm's departments."
