Mr. Grain Farmer:
Are you prepared to risndle your grain in bulk? Do not
wait until Spring and Summer when you are buried with work
and worried with labor shortnge, but build your graneries now.
You can buy the lumber and roofing paper for a 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 crop.
A granary of this sl?.e can be moved nnywhere and can be
filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced
lubor handliiH and sewing sacks.
The boys In the trenches need the sacks for sand bags for
tho protection of their very lives and perhaps your boy is
among them. , f
Spend your money in your own valley by buying lumber
manufactured at home. When you buy lacks part of the
money goes to India.'
BUILD YOUR GRANARIES NOW
Be prepared by building them before the farming season
opens up. He sure to get good lumber, well seasoned, as low
grade lumber will give you trouble in a few seasons Don't
use green lumber. - I an
Save money keep whtit you spend at home pvevent loss
and damage from exposure to weather leave the sacks for our
boys in the trenches; help win the war by building granaries now.
Portable granaries of this type are Universally used In
other sections. One tnp with a good team will haul the ma.
tertal for one granary For particulars as well as prices on
Union County lumber for all farm purposes, see
