All petrol in Italy Is used exclusive

prohibitive prices occasionally succeed
In securing petrol destined for the

to Impossible Identification of the pe

army authorities have decided to color
nil the petrol, and ns the dyes used

Mr. Grain Farmer:
Arc you prepared to handle your grain in bulk? Do not
wait until Kill ing and Summer when yon are buried with work
and worried with labor shortage, but build your granerics now.
You can buy the lumber and roofinir paper for n first-clnss
100(1 bushel portable Kianary for $51.58 and it will last for
years. Sticks for the same amount of grain will cost you
$125.00 and this would he a dead loss against this year's crop.
A granary of this size can be moved anywhero nnd can be
filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced
labor handling and sewing (jacks.
The boys in the trenches need the sacks for sand bags for
the protection of their very lives and perhaps your boy is
among them.
Spend your money in your own valley by buying lumber
manufactured at home. When you buy sacks parti of the
money goes to India.
Ill ILI VOI li CKANAKIICS NOW
He prepared by building them before the farming season
opens up. Be sure to get good lumber, well seasoned, as low
grade lumber will givo you trouble in u few seasons. Don't
Use green lumber.
Save money keep what you spend nt home prevent loss
nnd damage from exposure to wcutlier leave the sacks for our
boys in the trenches; help win the war by building granaries now.
Portable granaries of this type are universally used in
other sections. One trip with a good team will haul the ma
terial for one granary. For particulars ns well ns prices on
Union County lumber for nil farm purposes, see
The George Palmer Lumber Co.
