TODAY axutomouk-ow ARCADE Mr. Grain Farmer: Are you prepared to handle your grain in hulk? Do not wnit until Spring- and Summer when you nre buried with work and worried with labor shortage, but build your grancrics now. You can buy the lumber and roofing paper for a first-class 1000 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 nnd can be filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced labor hnndiing and sewing sacks. The boys in the trenches need the sacks for sand bags for the protection of their very lives and perhaps your bov is among them. s ' Spend your money in vour own vnlleu h Kim ii .luuiuiuuit-n .it nume. nnen you buy sacks part of uiuiiuy goes lo inula. the BUILD YOUR GRANARIES NOW Be prepared by building them before the farming season opens tip. Be sure to get good lumber, well seasoned, as low grade lumber will give you trouble in a f.w seasons. Don't use green lumber. 1 Save money keep what you spend at home pvevent loss and damage from exposure to weather-leave the sacks for our boys in the benches; help win the war by building gianarics now in Portable granaries of this type are universally used oiner sections.
