The Ford industries are now COM

most scientific and efficient labor

idea Of the size Of the different Ford
factories may lie arrived at b. seeing
the number Of acres which these Diff

has its own blast furnp ces, coke
ovens, foundries. machine shops,
body plant, saw mill, glass factory.

as well-as it's own paper mill, and
covers q total of 1000 acres.
The Highland Park plant Is the
Headquarters If the Ford Motor COM
pany, and the cradle OF all Ford in
dustries. 'This is the parent plant
from which the present Worldwide
Ford organization sprang, and here
the methods and policies. since be-
come famous, were originally worked
out. This is the largest Automobile
factory in the world and 1t covers Els
acres. Also located at d. arborn, are
the new Ford glass factories with an
annual capacity Of twenty two million
square feet.
The annual freight and express bills
Of the Ford Motor company Is now
one hundred fifty million dollars
year and paid by the company to
these carriers and some idea of the
number of cars required may be seen
when it is realized that the Ford

The fact that all of this system is
appreciated and that Ford cars are
growing in popularity is proven by

The potato grower. with four los

es to average an even break after
the next crop is marketed.
We seriously question why he
should be asked to play heavy again
in acreage. simply because there is
chance that the yield may not be
SO good as that made in a record
breaking year of production with the
results that the production might be
less. We know that record breaking
crops Of potatoes spell disaster for
the grower. We feel that the con-

times the present prices for potatoes,
