100000 Ford..

To sell It's output OF 100000 cars this
year. the Ford Motor Company.
through its dealers and branch houses.
must sell car every forty-hve sec
onds during the entire year.
This, however, Is not the difficult
task it might be. Although the COIN
pany has built and sold to date as
many cars as 1t did all last year, it
has far from filled the orders that
have piled in upon 1t from all parts
of the civilized world.
If the output took q year TO be sold.
then the average would be car every
forty-five seconds during the entire
twelve months. But that isn't the
way with Ford Motor Company out
puts. Last year the order books clos
cd In June. the year before that they
did the same thing, and indications
this year point to the order books
closing even before the timc they did
tho past two years.
Right now the company is some
forty thousand orders behind its pro-
duction this. remember. with $4,000
cars already built and sold 1t will
appear from this that TO date Fords
rapidly than one every forty-five sec
onds. one In less than every half min
ute would more nearly hit II.
A good idea Of the tremendous vol
ume OF Ford sales is instanccd by
those in California during the month
of January. In the first twenty days
OF that month. 449 Model rs were reg
istcred in that state. That was an
average OF twenty-five cars sold eacil
day with nine thrown In for extra
measure. Sales In other States and
foreign countries are in Keeping with
those OF California. And from now on
they will grow much faster unt.i the
ontire output Is exhausted. which VIII,
in all probability. be within the next
few months.
