Can you read? Is it “Kaenoto”? I don't read that. It's the beginning of fruitful autumn











 

 

 

 





Nogi is the collective name for grains such as rice, wheat, and millet. This is the final stage of the summer heat, when the tips of the rice ears become heavier and heavier each day, and the rice begins to ripen.

 

 

``The ear of rice bows its head as much as the fruit.'' This phrase is known as the motto of Konosuke Matsushita, the founder of Panasonic. It is an analogy of how a person who has deepened his knowledge and virtues becomes more humble, like the grain of rice hanging down heavily. During this hot and chilly season, why not be conscious of the ears of rice hanging their heads?
