PLANT LOW GROUNDS
We are not a pessimist,
but with the continuance of
dry weather which we have
been having, we realize that
the early corn will • be cut
short, and to those of our cus
tomers and friends who have
low grounds not already
planted, we urge that you use
every effort to plant late corn
or hay crops. We can not af
ford to let this low ground re
main uncultivated when we
need every ear of corn and
ton of hay that can be raised
in this country. If you have
any low ground you owe it to
yourself and to your neighbor
to make something on it. Do
not delay, but plant it as soon
as possible. PLANTERS

Some Facts About
THE UNIVERSAL CAR
Here are authentic figures from the Ford factory at Detroit.
They show you just how many Ford cars and trucks have been
built each month since January 1, 1921 and how many have been
sold to retail customers in the United States.

127,074 Total Retail Sales 207,732
showing that actual sales for the first three months of 1921 ex
ceeded production by 80,658 Ford cars and trucks.
April requisitions already specify 107,719 additional cars and
trucks and the estimated April output of the factory and assembly
plants combined calls for only 90,000.
These facts clearly show that the demand for Ford products
is growing much faster than manufacturing facilities to produce
and were it not for the dealers’ limited stocks, which are now be
ing rapidly depleted, many more customers would have been com
pelled to wait for their cars. It will only be a matter of weeks*
therefore, until a big surplus of orders will prevent anything like
prompt deliveries.
