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. For particulars as well at prices on
