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. For particulars as well as prices on
Union County lumber for all farm purposes, see
