FORD OUTPUT
IS INCREASED
Announce Plans To Take
Care of Large Volume
Of Orders

DETROIT, Mich, April 27.-An-
nouncement of plans for an increase
IN production during the remaining
spring months due to the heavy VOL
ume OF orders being received from
al parts OF the country was made
today by the Ford Motor company
IN a statement discussing the cur
rent building program.
TheVanufacturing schedule has
been balanced to provide for an out
put OF the entire line of passenger
cars and commercial vehicles, which
now includes 10 different automo-
bile types, the recent additions be-
ing tne chauffeur driven car, town
SEDAN, sport cabriolet, taxicab. sta
Q wagon and the de luxe delivery
wagon.
The following statement was made
by the Ford Motor company:
The production program has
been arranged to include the new
BODY types designed Tor the model
A chassis and production has been
simulated due to current orders.
The new types are being built with
out curtailment of the program for
the other standard cars. Orders on
hand are large and reports from
branches and dealers indicate that
the spring demand is greater in VOL
ume than was anticipated.
Increase in March
During March the rate Of pro-
uuction was increased to more than
5000 cars and trucks a day. Total
production for March was 161, 1874
cars, as compared with 125,9 34 in
February.
Although retooling the factories
for the model A car was completed
some time ago, many Of the ma
chimes employed last year have been
rendered obsolete by new machinery
developed within the organization.
This has been or is now being in
stalled. New machinery has result
ed in simplified methods in many
manufacturing divisions and in adj
dition to making possible greater
precision has contributed with other
efficiencies toward the high produc-
ton rate.
Three new furnaces have been
added to the number Of open hearts

tons daily. Deducting time neces-
sary for the frequent refining of
the furnaces, the minimum capacity
is $4,000 tons a month. The COM
pany is now in a position to produce
almost twice the tonnage in steel
ingots that it did in 1926, and 80
per cent more than was possible in
1923.
Six-Day Week
THE SiX-day factory week, which
went into effect at Dearborn March
l, has been of great assistance in
building up the production schdule
and has permitted the development
of an expanded program for the
spring and summer months. The
output Of the new body type will
be increased in accordance with this
schedule.
THE eighteen different Ford body
types have been designed to cover
virtually every transportation need.
Among the passenger cars r the

wheat which came to the Mime
apolis market were graded ergoty.
The federal standards permit on
~ three-tenths per cent of ergot
in the wheat, because the ergot
bodies are poisonous. Further
more, ergoty durum is not suitable
for macaroni because the black
specks spoil its appearance. Mac
aroni manufacturers therefore can
not use semolina containing much
ergot.
Losses can be reduced greatly by
seed treatment and crop rotation,
says DR.. E. C. Stakman, a cereal
plant authority of the University
OF Minnesota. The fungus that
causes the disease persists from
one crop season to the next in the
well known ergot bodies in the soil
or in seed grain. Therefore it is
necessary to get rid of these bod
les in order to control the disease.
The ergot bodies can be removed
from seed by treating it in brine
Dissolve common salt in water at
the rate of 45 pounds of salt to rs
gallons of water. One man should
pour the seed slowly into the solu-
ton while another stirs it. The err
got bodies will rise to the surface
and can be skinned off and burn
ed. Do not keep the seed in the
solution more than five or ten
minutes. Take it out as soon as
possible and wash it with plain wat
er to remove the salt, which may
reduce termination if it remains on
the seed.
The ergot- free seed must be
sown on clean soil. AS ergot is
particularly prevalent in rye and
durum wheat, the seed should be
sown on land which has not grown
either of these crops for at least a
year and preferably longer. The
disease cannot be prevented entire.

tein from various sources were
used have been made at many ag-
ricultural colleges and experiment
stations. In the great majority of
these tests it was found that skim
milk had no equal as an efficient
low-cost egg producer. A recent
eight months test at the Tennessee
experiment station again produces
authoritative evidence of the extra
profit which can be made by pro-
viding the layers with all the skim
milk they can consume.
Numerous experiment tests show
that skimmilk comes very near be-
ing complete substitute for both
water and meat scrap. When fed
with a proper mash mixture, it is
better for hens than water or meat
scrap.
In a test at the Tennessee ex-
pertinent station, hens fed a ration
in which cottonseed meal was used
as the source for the necessary pro-
tein, a flock of 16 White Leghorn
pullets laid an average of 88 eggs
each in 8 months. Another pen
with the same number of pullets in
it, in which meat scrap was substi-
tuted for cottonseed meal, averag-
ed 80 eggs each in the 8 months.
In another pen, the pullets were
given all the skin1milk they could
consume instead of any other
source Of protein and this pen av-
eraged 1873 eggs each in 8 months.
In still another pen, no high pro-
tein feed was added to the mash
and this pen averaged Sc eggs each
in 8 months. This shows that skim
milk was as valuable as the grain
used in making the mash, and it
more than doubled the egg pro-
duction of the pen that had Meth
er skimmilk, meat scrap nor cot
ton seed meal.

Seventh Year of Ton I
Litter Work Started

Litters narrowed between Febru-
airy 20 and June 1 can be entered
in the seventh annual Minnesota
ton litter contest, which will again
be directed by II. G. Zavoral, live
stock specialist of the university,
assisted by Minnesota county
agents. The aim is to produce a
ton or more of pork from a single
litter in $50 days. Enrollments
can be made with county agents or
with Mr.. Zavoral at University
Farm.
There are no entry fees to pay in
this contest, and the county agents
and specialists can be called upon
for information and counsel at any
time. Swine growers, young and
old, big and little, have much to
gain and nothing to lose by taking
part. Farm, Stock & Home of
Minneapolis will give a gold medal
to the producer of the heaviest lit
ter in each county represented and
a free trip to the International
Livestock Exposition to the win
ner Of the contest. The Farmer of
St. Paul will award gold watches
to the novice and to the club men,
Der doing the best in their classes.
Substantial cash purses will be paid
owners of the heaviest filters by
the Minnesota Livestock Breeders
association.
Year by year since 1928, when
the project was started, the ton lit
ter contest has demonstrated that
the saving and full feeding Of good
sized filters spell profits for the
growers. Big filters of early far
rowed pigs have a marked advant-
age, for they can be marketed in
September when prices are usually
the best. Last year 80 filters were
brought forward to ton or more
each within the $50 days. The
number Of pigs in the 80 filters
averaged 11.6 as compared with
an average of 81 to the litter on
farms at large in the state.
Ton litter work makes for a
quick turnover, for less likelihood
of losses by disease, and for higher
returns, particularly in the case of
early born pigs.

Milk Records Profitable;

Tell Cows Fortune
It is not hard to tell the fortune
of a dairy cow, says the Blue Val
ley Creamery Institute. If her
owner knows how she is bred, he
knows her past" If he weighs her
milk daily and feeds her accord
ingly, he can see her present"
productiveness. And he can best
Judge her future" usefulness by
considering her age and condition
and by adding up her daily milk
production of the past.
1t will be noted that all of these
factors are dependent upon records
simple records but vitality i'm
portant if real profits are to be
made. Without the facts, every
thing is guesswork.
The first important record in a
cows life is the record of her
breeding and the date of her birth.
No matter whether she is purebred
or grade, her pedigree should be
known. That pedigree is the best
pedigree which produces the best
results. Theories and fancies in
breeding and pedigrees had best
be replaced by records and results.
In appraisal, the parents can be
roughly considered as twice as i'm
portant as the grandparents inso-
far as the inherent productiveness
of the individual under examina-
tion is concerned.
Good cows look milky and usual
ly carry capacious udders. The I'D
der is the most important single ex-
ternal indication of milk and but
terfat producing ability of cow.
But the surest way to know the
present" productiveness of any
cow-the only way exactly to know
her production and the only way
accurately to tell production costs
lis to spend the minute per COW
per day required to weigh each
cows milk yield, to weigh cut each
cows grain feed. By doing so, one
can be sure each COW gets neither
too much nor too little grain.
Scores Of actually timed tests
show that no longer than one min
ute per cow daily is required for
this work. Further, it has been
shown that the cash return value
of the total minutes spent through
out the year in weighing feed and
milk was greater than the time
spent doing anything else in the
farm work.
Each individual dairy cows stfu-
ture" can be told with remarkable
accuracy by reference to her pres
ent productiveness. Age and con-
dition are, of course, important fac
tors. Looks count, but the simple
records outlined above can best be
depended upon to tell the story of
any dairy cows future" produc-
tiveness. With the records of
birth, pedigree and the total year.
ly milk yields of each cow before
him, almost any practical minded
farmer can "read the future" of
each cow in his herd.
Records are easy to keep. The
time spent keeping them returns
good dividends. More than that,
they provide something of added
interest to dairying and do away
with any sense of motonony that
might be found in caring for the
animals week after week. Records
add zest to dairying, and through
them, by comparing one cows re-
cord with another's, the mixer and
feeder finds new interests
