Since you gave an answer to 'gribbing hoe', I wonder if it wasn't a 'grubbing hoe' one 'grubs' new potatoes out of the ground. 'Grubbing hoe' was what I heard it called when I was growing up, and language is always fluid. I knew millit was a grain, but I'm still not sure what it looks like or what it was used for way back when.

I have been looking them up on the net, I believe that Gribbing is Grubbing. Grubbing is digging up stumps and roots when clearing land.

It is a sprouting grain used for bread... it's still used in some countries to mill for flour. I have seen millit flour in our health food stores. You can buy it still on a branch at pet stores called "spray Millit" Allen Wlcrab@aol.com wrote: > Since you gave an answer to 'gribbing hoe', I wonder if it wasn't a > 'grubbing hoe' one 'grubs' new potatoes out of the ground.
