Extra Value at No Extra Cost!
Increased farm production may actually mean decreased farm income for you
if you don’t have adequate storage facilities. Government figures show that
70 to 95% of various grain crops are first stored on the farm before moving
to marketing channels. Safe, adequate storage facilities lets YOU set the
market price. You don’t have to sacrifice your crop because you don’t have
r ’.equate storage facilities.
Soon Pays For Itself!
The higher prices you get for your crop when it is properly stored will soon
pay for your investment in - SIOUX - Steel Storage Bins. Stop worrying
every year about changing market conditions, freight car shortages, and lack
of elevator space. Get fire-proof, rodent-proof, easily-erected - SIOUX -
STEEL BINS. New wider doorway permits easier entrance: easier filling;
easier conversion to utility building when empty. Two doors assures tight
closing and locking; avoids sagging. Only - SIOUX - construction includes
sturdy six-ply 1" ribs ovary 22W of height, shoveling or sacking hopper or
both, sturdy corrugated walls, extra large ventilator, and water-tight roof that
will support man’s weight.

By VENLA BRADLEY
I When we left Nebraska along the
i middle of last month and started
. out the Southern route for Los
Angles the flu epidemic was at its
peak. So far, none of us had come
. down with it. That was partly due
. to our slaying home,lsolating, and
being very careful about what we
i ate.
That wasn’t too hard to do at
i home. But we knew traveling some
. 1,700 miles by car was going to be
1 a different matter. And with a five
, year-old along, it seemed nigh im
. possible to me. But Sister, with her
i mother instinct at work, had it all
; figured out. She laid down the law
i and by it we went ,the whole trip.
No eating in restaurants. No
. drinking from anything except our
, own cups in the car, No staying in
hotels around other people. Stay
. in motels only, and then only as
; ter careful inquiry. Sounds awful,
doesn’t it? But she meant what she
said and she was prepared. And
when we reached Flagstaff, Ari
> zona, and found that all schools
, were closed, hundreds of people
critically ill and business practlcal
, ly at a standstill, we were glad
and praised her for her foresight.

It must be a mirage I
We found brand new motels with
kitchenettes, way out in the coun
try with plenty of fresh air.
It was fun getting the “cooking
box” out of the car and setting up
overnight housekeeping. What a
luxury the next morning to get up
and go to the kitchen in pajamas
and put the coffee on. None of that
dying a slow death until everybody
gets dressed for the day before
you get to a coffee shop. After our
bacon and eggs, oh, how good they
would taste, we would brew an
other big pot of coffee for the
thermos jug, fill the other thermos
from a can of fruit juice that had
chilled in the refrigerator over
night, make piles of sandwiches for
our noon appetites and we were
ready to travel again.
We got to Los Angles, all well
and happy. Then we decided to
take a scenic trip up into Oregon.
That little jaunt turned out to be
a 2000 mile trip itself.
The five-year-old was left in L.
A. with relatives and another cou
ple traveled with us. This trip was
strictly for pleasure. The second
morning out I waked with a burn
ing temperature and aching some
thing awful. Quick to the doctor
for a penecilin shot. Lady, you go
home and stay in bed, he said.
You’ve got the flu. Thank you,
doctor, I will, I said. I was afraid
to tell him I was 3000 miles from
home. He might have put me in
the hospital and I couldn’t afford
that and a vacation too.
