A granary of this sh'.o can be moved anywhere and can he filled dire-Hy from the thresher, doing away with high priced labor handling ntnl Kowi.ig sacks. 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 maiiiifai'turcd at home. When you buy sacks part of the money goes to India. 1U.ILI) YOl'R (iltANAUlLS NOW He prepared by building them before the farming season opens uii. P,e euro to get good lumber, well seasoned, as low grade lumber will give you trouble in a few seasons. Don't Use green lumber. Save money keep what you spend nt home prevent loss nnd damage from exposure to weather leave the sacks for our boys in the trenches; help win the war by building granaries now.
