Green Mountain” Silos ? 
This Book Tells You 
Do you intend to purchase a 
Silo? Then it’s good business to 
know , when you make a selec¬ 
tion, just WHY you are mak¬ 
ing that particular selection. 
Don’t take chances. Here’s your opportunity to get 
important Silo knowledge and study the problem out 
carefully by yourself at home. Our handsome, new 
GREEN 
MOUNTAIN 
SILO 
booklet, “A Brief Catechism,” asks and answers 
briefly and plainly many vital questions that every 
silo user ought to know. 
It tells, for instance,WHY our staves are soaked in pure 
creosote oil, killing all decay germs and making silos 
last many years longer than those not so treated. Jt tells 
WHY over 2,000 feet of good lumber daily is turned 
into useless shavings to match the staves as we want 
them. It tells WHY the GREEN MOUNTAIN SILO 
door is made like a safe door—a patented feature that 
other silo makers would imitate if they dared. It’s a 
valuable reference book on all points of silo construction. 
Also gives copies of letters, such as u)e receive 
every day from successful farmers, praising Green 
Mountain Silos. Let us send the booklet TOD A Y.

DO YOU NEED FARM HELP? 
The Jewish Agricultural and Industrial Aid 
Society has on its lists men wishing to obtain em¬ 
ployment upon farms. Most of them are without 
experience, but they are able-bodied and willing 
to work. They speak lltt le or no English, although 
many of them speak German. If you can make 
use of such help, please communicate with us, 
stating what you will pay. whether the work is 
permanent, and whether you prefer a single or a 
married man. We are a philanthropic organiza¬ 
tion, whose object it is to assist and encourage 
Jews to become farmers. We charge no commis¬ 
sion to employer or employee. Address
