Interlocking Cement Stave Silos 



Interlocking Cement Stave Silo Company 



414-17 FLYNN BLDG. DES MO1NES, IA. 



The inventions used and developed by this Company make It possible 

 for our lessees to construct concrete silos, water-tanks, and other build- 

 ings, of any desired size, and to sell them to the farmer at a price which 

 approximates the cost of an ordinary good wood structure. This is only 

 possible because of the great simplicity of our system, and the fact that 

 we only use one stave in any construction, regardless of whether It be a 

 silo eight feet in diameter, or twenty-eight feet. Our system does not 

 require a manufacturer to keep on hand a number of different sized staves 

 to be used in different sized structures, and therefore this not only simpli- 

 fies his business, but reduces the up-keep expense to a minimum. One 

 of our machines is capable of constructing five hundred staves per day, 

 and each stave is just as perfect as is the gearing of a watch. 



The erecting of a silo, or any other structure requiring a multiplicity 

 of these staves, is as simple as is the mating of toy building block* by a 



child. This is made possible by the absolute perfection of the machine 

 which we use for the manufacturing of our staves, a cut of which is 

 shown herewith. 



Our INTERLOCKING feature is such that there Is not a Joint in our 

 completed structure, but that is strengthened by an encircling band, and 

 this is accomplished with a lesser number of bands than Is used by any 

 other construction known. We will give you a full and satisfactory guar- 

 antee concerning everything regarding our system. 



If you are desirous of engaging in a business which Is the llveat and 

 most flourishing business there is in the country today, and want a proposi- 

 tion which will pay you a larger percentage on your money than you can 

 receive from anything else, write us today, and we will thoroughly explain 

 our proposition.
