Do not wait until Spring and Summer when you are buried with work niil worried with labor shortage, but build your granerics now. You can buy the lumbir and roofing paper for a first-class 1(1(10 bushel portable granary for $f4.58 und it will last for years. Sacks for the same amount of grain will cost you $I1!S.0U and this would be a dead loss against this year's crop. A granary of this size can be moved anywhere and can be filled directly from the thresher, doing away .with high priced labor handling and sewing sacks. The boys in tho trenches need the sacks for sand bags for the protection of their very lives and perhaps your boy is among themr Spend your money in your own valley by buying lumber manufactured at home. When you buy sucks part of the money goes to India. ISIII.D YOl U GRANARIES NOW lie prepared by building them before the farming season opens up. lie 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 at home prevent loss and damage from exposure to weather 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.
