PAULINE, IvEDERLE Mr. Grain Farmer: ': Are you prepared lo handle your grain in hulk T Do not wait until Spring and Summer when you nro buried with work and worried witli labor shortage, but build your,graacries now. .You can buy tho lumber and roofing paper for a first-class 111(11) bushel portable granary for $f-U8 and it will last for years. Sacks for the Biime amount of grain will cost you ?1L'.").0H nnd this would be a dead loss against this year's crop.' A granary of this sine ran bo moved nnywhero nnd can bq filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced labor bundling anil sewing sacks. The boys in tho trenches need the sacks for sand bags for the protection of their very lives anil perhaps your boy is among tliem. Spend your money in your own valley by buying lumber manufactured at home. When you buy sacks part of the money goes to India. nUII.I) VOIIB GKANARIKS NOW affected was re-asse.-iscd. Suit was then instituted to enjoin the from collecting on the reassess ments. The lower court sustained I the reassessment and dismissed the injunction. jj On tho appeal the validity of tlie J amendment to the charter was at tacked on the grounds of insuffi ciency of the ballot title of the Ini tiative act and also the authority of the city commission to re-assess jj n any evpnt. ' The ' decision from the court as reported yesterday upholds ! j J - J He prei.d by building them before the fnrmlng season opens up. He sure to get good lumber, well seasoned, as low grade lumber will give you trouble in a few seasons. Don't Use green lumber. Save money keep what you spend nt home p event loss and damage from cviosurc to weather leave the sacks for our hoys in the trenches; help win the war by building giannrics now. Portable granaries of this type are univrrsnlly used In oilier section1-.. One trip with a ftood team will haul the ma terial for one granary.
