MILJi MARKETING BIG JOB
During the past twelve months 17,995 dairy f a r m e r s in 27
counties produced over 1,100,000,000 pounds of milk, valued a t
317,600,000.00. This was t h e volume of business done by t h e
Michigan Milk Producers Association f o r its members in the
ten larger cities in Michigan. This is more than 36% of Michigan's entire dairy income. There are 863,000 dairy cows in
Michigan and approximately 20 % are owned by members and
producing milk f o r fluid sales. This marketing organization is
t h e largest cooperative marketing organization in Michigan and
one of the five largest in t h e entire country. Of t h e entire
amount produced during the summer months, considerable
amount was not needed in t h e fluid milk markets. The producers'
organization found it necessary to m a n u f a c t u r e 68,166,645
pounds of milk, which distributors in the various m a r k e t s were
not able to handle during t h e peak production period of May and
June, especially. Because of plans carried out a few years ago
by the organization in having made available m a n u f a c t u r i n g
plants, this entire amount of milk above the noi-mal production
was taken care of in the most orderly way.

THEY ride with greater safety
in the new Ford for 1936. It's
not so much that V-8 engine
power and pick-up whisk them
clear of traffic tangles — although this, too, helps m a k e
the new Ford a safer as well as
a mor* thrilling car to drive.
But i t ' s m a i n l y b e c a u s e
every feature of the new Ford
measures u p to the standard
of V-8 engine quality. The
Ford Motor Company was not
satisfied with putting an engine f r o m the luxury class into
a csr selling as low as $510.
It in«i«ted that everything else
be in keeping with the fine-car
