I i! ii Mr. Grain Farmer: - Are you prepared to handle your grain In bulkf Do not wait until Spring (ind Summer when you are buried with work and worried with ldbor shortage, but build your graneries sow. You can buy tlie lumber and roofing paper for a first-class 1000 bushel portable granary for $04. D8 and it will last for years. Sacks for-.rthe same amount of grain will cost you $125.00 and this would be a dead loss against this year' 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. The boys in the .trenches need the tacks for aand bag for the protection of .their very Uvea and perhaps your boy it among them. i.' ..... . 1 Spend" your money in your own valley by buying lumber manufactured at home. When you buy tackt part of the money goes to India; BUM.Uj YOUR GRANARIES NOW Be prepared Dy"'building them before the farming leaion opens up. He sure, to get good lumber, well seasoned, aa low grade lumber will give you trouble in a few teasont. Don't Use green lumber. "' ., . 1 . o Save money keep what you tpend at home prevent Ion and damage from exposure to weather leave the sacks for our boya in the trenches;, help win the war by building granaries now. Portable granaries of this type are onlverralty oaed In other sections.- .. One trip with a good team will haul the ma terial for one granary.
