Do not wait until Spring and Summer when you arc buried with work and worried with labor shortage, but build your grancries now. You can buy the lumber und roofing paper for n first-class 1000 bushel portable granary for $54.58 nnd it will last for years. Sacks 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 sir.c can be moved nnywhere nnd can be filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced labor handling and sewing sacks. The boys in the trenches need the sncks for sand bngs 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 ut home. When you buy sacks part of the money goes to India. Itl' I I.D YOUR GRANARIES NOW . Be prepnred by building them before the farming season opens up. He sure to get good lumber, well seasoned, ns low grade lumber will give you trouble in a few seasons. Don't Use green lumber. Save money keep whnt you spend nt home prevent loss nnd damage from exposure to weather leave the sacks for our boys in the trenches; help win the wur by building granaries now. Portable granaries of this type nre universally used in other sections. One trip with a good team will haul the ma terial for one granary.
