Mr. Grain Farmer:
Are you prepared to handle your grain in hulk? Do not
wait until Spring and Summer when you are buried with work
and worried with labor shortage, but build your grnneriea now.
You can buy the lumber and roofing paper for a first-clnss
1000 bushel portable granary for $54.08 and it will last for
years. Sacks for tho same amount of grain will cost you
(12C.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
labor handling and sewing sacks.
