Do not wait until SprinB nnd Summer when you aro buried with work and worried with labor shortage, but build your graneries now. You can buy the lumber and roofing paper for a first-class 1000 bushel portable granary for $54.58 and it will Inst for years. Sacks for the same amount of grain will cost you $l'25.0lt and this would be a dead loss against this year's crop. A granary of this siie can be moved anywhere and can lie filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced labor handling and sewing sucks. The boys In the trenches need the sacks for sand bags for the protection ot their very lives anil perhaps your hoy is among them. Spend your money In your own vnlley by buying lumber manufactured at home. When you buy sacks part of the money goes to India. ' . BUILD YOITR GRAN ARIKS NOW Ho propnred hy building them before the farming season opens up. He sure to get good lumber, well sensoncd, as low grade lumber will give you trouble in a few seasons. . Don't use green lumber. Save money keep what you spend at home prevent loss and dnitiBgd from exposure to weather leave the sacks for our boys in the trenches; help win the war by building giannries now.. Portable granaries -of this type are universally used in . other sections. One trip with a good team will haul flie ma terial for one granary.
