The Marietta Tonrnal
L INVAL, ESTAB LISHED 1866,
¥t 50
There is stopping at the Kenne
saw House, a gentleman who will
probably play an important part in
the future of Marietta as a Nation
ally advertised manufacturing town,
Mr. Percy Shultz, inventor of the
National Silo, now located at Char
lotte, N. C., has been brought to Ma
rietta by Mr. Frank L. Boud, to con
sult with some of the leading Mar
etta spirits.
Just what arrangements have been
made are not definitely known at the
:li{me of going to press, excepting that
Mr. Boud has resigned his position
with the Ruralist Press, Inc., of At
lanta, tc become Sec’y. and Gen.
MEr. of the Charlotte Company.
The fcllowing article in the Manu
facturers Record describes the Silo
that is now being manufactured by
the Charlotte Company:
- “The system of construction of the
National silo, employing metal up
rights and wood fillers, invented by
Percy Shultz, (‘llarlogte. N. €, and
being ccmmercially developed by the
National Silo Co., Charlotte, is said
to place upon the market a silo of
the highest class within reach of the
small farmer. It is claimed to be so
simple and effective that any man of
average intelligence can erect it
quickly, and cannot erett it in any
but the right way. The silo has 12
sides, which makes it practically
round.
“Galvanized metal uprights are
used for the corners, these standing
if a metal track and being capped
with a similar track to assure rigid
ity and mechanical exactness in con
struction. The wood fillers are
r'geed horizontally between the met
al uprights, the bottom one in each

of the 12 sides extending down into
the track.
“Unusual ecopomy is said to be
effected, since a cheaper quality of
lumber may be used, the knotty
places being dropped out in sawing
up the lumper into the short lengths
that are used. In this connection it
is pointed out that a farmer with
timber on his land and with a simple
sawing outfit can ytilize his own tim
ber thus, as the short pieces 2an be
easily sawed and green wood can be
used because lumber shrinks latitud
inally and not lengthwise. It is a
simple matter to knock the fillers
down to fit if they shrink. The com
| pany will furnish the metal uprights
and top and bottom tracks separately
jfrom the wood fillers where the pur
i(-haser desires to furnish the lumber.
A rotten board does not necessitate a
new silo or extensive repairs, as the
defective piece can be knocked out,
the pieces above being pushed down
to close the opening ancd a new piece
inserted at the top.
“Portability is another fecatre of
this silo. It can be rveadily taken
down and moved in paris. The small
sizes of the various units of con
struction are also said to insure th«ir
shipping with 2 minimum of damage.
“*Nationa! «ilos are built in sizes: \
§ feet diameter by 20 feet high, wi!h‘
a capacity of 17 tons, sufficient t)
carry five head .of cattle for six
months, according to figures from
the silo company, While as few as
three may be fed from a silo of that
size without having the silage spoil
from too slow feeding; 10x20 feet,
with capacity of 28 tons; 12x30 feet,
65 tons. 14x30 feet, 100 tons; 14x36
feet; 120 tons. The silo 1s in use in
North Carolina, and is said to be ful
filling all expectations.”
