stook

If the season is late, as is usual with us, then mid-September sees the corn still standing in stook.

At the end of September the foliage was heavy green, and the wheat stood dejectedly in stook.

"School isn't all games, I can tell you," said Keith, pulling a straw from the stook and chewing it meditatively.

The wheat usually stands only a week in stook, and is then threshed on the field.

Of course I had put on my landworker's clothes to stook in, and to my surprise this caused a great sensation.
