/• N when you can build a permanent one with the same expense? A Stave Silo, like a wood side walk, is a good thing while it lasts, but it does not last long. A Stave Silo, when empty is like a huge barrel. Did you ever set an empty barrel out in the sun, and the next day, find that a little puff of wind had blown it all down in a heap? :: :: :: :: A GOOD SILO must be durable and permanent, must be smooth on the Inside to insure per­ fect packing, must be fire proof and rat proof, and above all, must be capable of withstand­ ing the ravages of the weather. A Stave Silo has none of these requirements, a MONO­ LITHIC CONCRETE SILO has them all. :: :: :: > :: :: There is one false objection that is sometimes raised. It is said that the cost Is too great It is true that a MONOLITHIC CONCRETE SILO costs more than the so-called good one, in fact they are cheaper in the long run. Any article costs you as much as you spend for it and on it, plus 100 per cent when you have to replace it. The MONOLITHIC CONCRETE SILO never has to be replaced, hence the FIRST cost is the ONLY cost. :: :: :: Stave Silo agents are making frantic arguments against concrete silos, and make all manner of false statements in their efforts to sell their product. They are desperate because they know that as soon as the concrete silo is introduced, that the stave silo tnusfc go. Do not take their word for it. Ask the man who owns a concrete one what he thinks of it. :: :: A MONOLITHIC CONCRETE SILO erected with our POLK SYSTEM will keep en­ silage PERFECTLY, will stand FOREVER, and will MOT BURN, BLOW DOWN, or ROT. NO PAINTING, NO ADJUSTING OF HOOPS, cheapest of all in the end. :: :: ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEED NOT TO CRACK OR BREAK. , Tele^honp 931. E.

And thousands mora are daily breaking their chains "getting a fresh, clean start." Dr. Keeiey proved, conclusively, that drunkenness it a disease caused by constant use or alcohol wherein "the nerve cells have become So accustomed to performing' their duties and functions under the influence of alcohol that thry are dependent on it and will no longei perforin those duties and functions properly and painlessly except when under its influence." It is practically impossible for an inebriate, nnsided, to stop drink­ ing of his own accord.

If the house is an old one, electricity goes a long way towards making it modern--whether new or old, it lightens a great deal of the domestic labor at small cost. Electricity doesall, the hard part of washing and sewing, makes ironing pleasant work and housecleaning san­ itary. Before renting a house that i not wired, every housekeeper shoult consider of what she would be depriv­ ing herself.
