MAIL AND TRAIN SCHEDULES TItAlX SCHKIH'I.K Mr. Grain Fanner: Are you prepared to handle your grain in bulk? Do not wait until Spring and .Summer when you are buried with work and worried with labor shortage, hut build your grnneries now. You can buy the lumber nnd roofing paper for a first-class 1000 bushel portable granary for IfM.fiH and it will last for years. Sacks for the same amount of grain will cost you $125.(10 and this would be a dead loss against this year's crop. A granary of this Bize enn be moved anywhere ami can be filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high piiecd labor handling and sewing sucks. The boys in the trenches need the sucks for sand bags for the protection of their very lives nnd perhaps your boy is among them. Spend your money In your own valley by buying lumber manufactured nt home. When you buy sacks part of the Inonvy goes to India. Bl'll.H VOllt GRANARIES NOW Be prepared by building them before the farming season opens up. Be sure to get good lumber, well seasoned, as low grade lumber will give you trouble in u few seasons. Don't Use green lumber. Save money keep what you spend nt home prevent loss and damage from exposure to weather leave the sacks for our hoys in the trenches; help win the war by building granaries now. Portable granaries of this typo are universally used in other sections. One trip with n good team will haul the ma terial for one granary.
