    How to sow Beans. 'One for the mouse, One for the crow, One to rot, One to grow.'
    [1850 Notes & Queries 1st Ser. II. 515]

    'Kernels,' said Pa. 'Four kernels. ‥One for the blackbird, One for the crow, And that will leave Just two to grow.'
    [1941 L. I. Wilder Little Town on Prairie ii.]

    Careful farmers‥sow their seed broadcast, saying: One for wind and one for crow One to die and one to grow.
    [1961 N. Lofts House at Old Vine i. 34]
