FORD PLANT BUILDS
los, 962 In JUNE
DEMAND EXCEEDS OUTPUT AS
FORD BREAKS ALL RECORDS
One Car Or Tractor Is Produced
Every So SecOnds-545
Every Hour

During the month of June, the
Ford Motor Company, through its
Detroit factories and % Assembly
plants throughout the country reached
the production of 108,962 Ford cars
and trucks, setting up a new high
record for one month.
Production of Ford cars and
trucks has been steady increasing
since early last spring, and shows
substantial gains over the same per-
lou last year. The second quarter
of 1921, viz: April, May and June,
shows an output Of 301, 1896 Ford cars
and trucks against 220,S78 for the
same three months of last year, or a
net increase of S0,91S.
Despite the fact, however, that the
Ford Plants have been running at
maximum capacity, the demand for
Ford cars and trucks is not being
met, and at the present time. many
thousand untitled orders have been
piled up ahead so that Ford sales
are still limited by manufacturing
facilities rather than marketing pos
sibilities. Particularly is this
true with respect to enclosed cars,
for which the demand has been unus-
ually heavy.
One reason cited by Ford 0ffic-
ials for the unprecedented demand
for Ford cars is the present tendency
toward economy. Many Of those
whose names have been added to
the long list of buyers might well
have afforded larger and more cost
ly cars than the Ford, but it is the
belief that most prospective motor
car buyers are investigating all
of the costs incident to motoring
much more carefully than at any
period during the past five years.
The estimated output of the Ford
Factories for July calls for 100000
cars and trucks, or . production of
4360 a day for rs days. Since The
assembling of cars is being handled
during an eight hour work day on
ly, the hourly output will be 545
cars In other words, one Ford car
or truck leaves the assembly line
every 61s seconds.

holiday making it practically impos-
sible to write all water receipts with
in the time prescribed, the council has
extended the time in which payment
of water taxes may be made without
added penalty to SATURDAY., the 18th
of July After that date the penalty
viii positively be added Look up
your receipts. If you are paid up tc
July LIST you are all right. If not
pay by Saturday night or you will be
subjected to penalty
And above all else, don't waste any
water this hot weather 1t is with the
utmost difficulty that the head of wa
ter is being maintained in the stand
pipe with all the pumps working to
full capacity. The slightest break in
machinery will cause the gravest sit
uation, and all should do their part to
conserve water.

REV.HALVERSONDIES

A calbegram brought the distress
ing news to his thousands of parish
toner's and friends in Westby and thru

passed away Monday morning. The
precious remains of this stalwart old
pillar Of the Lutheran church will be
brought back and laid to rest in the
cemetery at Westby, where almost

yard of the Lord. The Censor will
pay fitting tribute to his consecrated
life next week.

CITY ICE Is PERFECTLY PURE

No Ammonia In It-And the White
Powder Is Pure Lime
Rumors are in circulation to the
effect that the ice manufactured at our
plant is impure-that it contains am
monia and other harmful ingredients.
It does not contain even a chemical
trace of anything which is not con-
tanned in our city water The white
powder of which some have complain
ed is pure lime, which is abundant in
our water. You can use our ice in
iced drinks, ETC., with perfect assur-
ance that it is even more pure than
the water from which it was frozen,
because freezing purifies water.
Farmers and others can get ice at
the plant from five o'clock in the morn
ing until 8 at night on week days and
until 9 o'clock Sunday mornings.
Please do not bother the delivery
man by buying ice coupon books of
