pinned Bruekman in 11 minutes
to win two falls and the match

With the war program calling
for greater food production,
many farmers are putting in
Concrete Trench Sitos. Trench
silos lined with concrete help
get maximum feeding value
from crops. And save labor, too.
No more caving banks and
back-breaking repair work. A
concrete silo reduces contami
nation and spoilage—soon pays
for itself in silage saved. No
special skilled labor required—
you can build one in a few days
at moderate cost.
Write today for a copy of
"Building the Trench Silo” or
other booklets on uses of
concrete that aid war food
production.
