That new Chev- "ALL SILOS NOT ALIKE" Tho wood silo is demonstrably superior to all other material silage making. The evidence on this score is overwhelming. Wheu silo it empty and weather dry and hot, the staves shrink and hoops expand, causing hoops to get loose on many silos. There is one construction --and one only--that solves this problem of keeping hoops always tisht and securely in place during all changing weather and service condi tions. That one is the I SILO With "Self-Adjusting" Hoop and Door Fasteners.

Tecktonius Self-Adjusting Silo Fasteners have revolutionized silo construction, by giving the- wood silo all the strength and rigidity of steel or concrete, at the same i possessing the better silage making properties of wood. No other silo has the equal of these or other Tecktonius matchless equipment--no other gives the length, quality, or convenience of service. When you know how vastly superior these essential Tccktoniiis Silo Features are over corresponding features of other silos, you will then know "All Silos are not Alike."
