Last Time Today, "Huck and Tom"! JACK PICKFORD Mr. Grain Farmer: Are you prepared to handle your grain in bulk ? Do not wait until Spring and Summer when you are buried with work and worried with labor shortage, but build your graneries now. Yon can buy the lumber and roofing paper for n 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 croc A granary of this size can be moved anywhere and can bo filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced labor handling and sewing sacks. Tho boys in the trenches need the sacks for sand bngs for the protection of their very lives and pcrhnps your boy is among them. ( Spend your 'jnoncy in your own valley by buying lumber manufactured at' home. When you buy sacks part of the money goes to India. CL'ltl) YOU I GRANARIES NOW Be prepared hi buildiig them before the farming season opens up. b'e sur to getj good lumber, well seasoned, as low grade lumber will give yop trouble in a few seasons. Don't Use green lumber, y j Save money kcefc whit you spend ot home prevent loss and damage from explsura to weather leave the sacks for our boys in the trenches; hilp fin the war by building gianarics now. Portable granaries , of this type are universally used in other sections. One tr with a good team will haul the ma terial for one granary.
