MOST MODERN EQUIPMENT IN GRAIN ELEVATORS The drip shed will be 80 by 83 feet, so that cars will have ample opportunity to drain thoroughly in wet weather, and no moisture will run into the receiving bins while cars are being unloaded. The main working house will be 47 by 117 feet, and will be 208 feet 6 inches high. It will contain 47 bins with a capacity of ‘about 175,000 bushels. . In addition to the two 40-inch receiving legs and four 40-inch shipping legs with which this house will be equipped, there will be a drier and general utility leg with a capacity of about 10,000 bushels an hour. The cupola will ~contain seven concrete each, and seven 2,000-bushel -hopper scales with self-registering beams. The main working house also will contain . automatic sacking scales and all other modern equipment. B In the storage annex are 60 circular tanks” of a capacity of 12,100 bushels each, and 45 interstices of a capacity of 2690 bushels each, giving the annex a total storage capacity of 847,000 bushels. This, togethér with the 175,000-bushel bin capacity of the working house, gives the elevator a total storage capacity of 1,200,000 bushels. 2 Among the many .and varied: .ton* warehouses and the grain elevator are lower interest rates, storage rates, lower handling cost, lower insurance rates, greater rapid- ity of handling, better protection, assuring ability to fill sales contracts and contracts for ocean freight room,: which ordinary insurance does not compensate for, and accessability to diverse trade routes.and destinations, with the ability to change ultimate destination after purchase and stor- age of commodities.

Manufacturers “The’ Eagle Brand Line” 1 inch buckles TO LEAGUE MEMBERS: I have invented a ditch digging and grading machine which I believe to be superior to anything at present on the market. It is horse drawn and will dig an open ditch to a depth of six feet and a’ width of fifteen feet. I believe it to be just the thing for the work of constructing drains in the Red River valley. I am a working farmer, a menber of the Nonpartisan League of Minnesota, and on account of the failure of my crop I have not the money to arrange for the manufacture and sale of this machine. I will offer an attrac- tive proposition to anyone who is willing to join me in manufacturing and marketing my invention. GEO. GILBERTSON. * PELICAN RAPIDS, MINNESOTA .
