Mr. Grain Farmer:
Are you prepared to handle your grain in bulk? Po not
wait until Spring and Summer when you are buried with work
and worried with labor shortage, but build your grancries now.
Vou can buy the lumber and roofing paper for a first-class
3000 bushel portable granary for $54.58 and it will last for
years. Sacks for the same amount of grain will cost you
$125.00 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
laber handling and sewing sacks.
Tke 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 part of the
money goes te India.
BUIi.D VOI R GRAXARIES NOW
Be prepared by building them before the fnrming season
open, tip. Be sure to get good lumber, well seasoned, asvlow
grade lumber will g,ve you trouble in a few seasons. Don't
Use green lumber. 1 1
Save moncy-Vccp what you spend at home prevent loss
and damage frerr. exposure to weather-leave the sacks for our
boys in th. trenches; help win the war by building granaries now
