Do not wait until Spring and Summer when you are buried with work and worried with labor shortage, but build your grnncries now. Yon can buy tho lumber nnd roofinc paper for a first-class 1000 bushel portable granary for $54.58 nnd it will last for years. Sacks for the same amount of grain will cost you 125.00 and this would bo a dead loss against this year's crop. A granary of this size can be moved anywhere and can be filled directly from he thresher, doing away with high priced labor handling and sewing slicks. The boys in the Venche need the sacks for sand bags for the protection of thojr verlr lives nnd perhaps your boy is among them. Spend your money in Jour own valley by buying lumber manufactured at home! When you buv wick, m.i . hnl, .,,,,. , . j. I - - l - iw build yqvi granaries now Be prepared by buillirfc them before the farming season opens up. He sure to t wood lumber, well seasoned, as low grade lumber will give 4nJ trouble in a few seasons. non't Use green lumber. I Save money keep whift you spend at home prevent loss and damage from exposure to weather-leave the sacks for our boys in the trenches; help win the war by building giannrics now. ft..r Tta?le Bra"aric? .of l' yPe universally used in other sections.
