Asked who ordered the strike, he
said, that was indefinite and uncer
tain, hut that, it was a result of the
voting on the acceptance of the
proposition of President Wilson to
the head officers of the union for a
temporary truce during the efforts
to reduce the cost of living. It is
not thought that there will be any
movement made unless the national
organizations call out a general
strike and the Havelock strike seems
to have been inaugurated by the
organizations in that city without
any order from the head officers of
the unions.

The Granary on
JSA fir .
T;
'PiPl Granary is more and more becoming; one of the most-
important buildings on the farm. As farmers raise more cattle
and !.os,s they require better storase facilities. A poor Granarv
soon wastes more yrairi than the cost of a good Granary. A well
planned Granary ,s;ves time and labor.
Furthermore, with proper storage facilities a farmer is not forced
to s.-!l his 'rain when the market is glutted and prices are down.

I Gocl seed rain needs protection. I t's too valuable to feed to the rats.
V. Lite pjr.e h the ide?.l wood for a granary. It gives up its moisture ,
so comp'ctely in seatoning that for walls and floor it's the safest
wood to use. And for all outside uses, it lasts for generations with
out v.e.-ping or twisting or rotting. It is the most economical wood
for tr.posed surfaces even at a slightly higher first cost.
