A good serviceable wheat granary
can be made by using steel corn
crib and lining it on the inside with
ordinary screen wire. The meshes in
the cribbing being close, form a
strong wall, while the screen cloth
prevents the wheat from escaping. A
roof can be made out of hay, and if
desired, wooden floor may be used.
That 'spatent right" $50 much
