FARM PRODUCTS IN
FORD AUTOMOBILES
The important part played by
farm products in the manufac
ture of Ford cars and trucks was
described yesterday by W. C.
Patterson, manager of the Char
lotte Branch of the Ford Motor
Company, who estimated that
the products to be consumed this
year will include 500,000 bush
els of corn, parts of 20,000 hogs
and 30,000 cattle, 3,200,000
pounds of wool, 1,800,000 pounds
of soy beans, 69,000,000 pounds
of cotton, and many others.
“Some time ago Henry Ford
said he was convinced that the
basic materials used in motor
car manufactui'e which then
came from forest and mine could
be secured out of yearly crops,”
said .Mr. Patterson. “That this
prophecy was well founded is
clearly indicated by a study of
the various farm products that
will be used in the scheduled
production of a million Ford
cars and trucks this year.’’
Mr. Patterson pointed out that
from corn comes butyl alcohol
used for enamel finishes and
other purposes, and starch tor
stiffening cotton linings. Leather
from cattle goes into upholstery,
and in addition, glues are made
from cow hide, and from cattle
goes into upholstery, and in ad
dition, glues are made from cow
hide, and from cow’s milk, and
other parts of cattle yield stearic
acid, greases, glycerine and oth
er by-products used in the manu
facture of cars.
Soy beans are an important
part of the baked enamel finish
of a F'ord V-8 and are used also
in making cores for metal cast
ings and plastic knobs and but
tons in the interior ot the car.
Wool roes into upholstery, floor-
coverings, lubricants and anti
rust preparations. Cotton is used
in tires, batting, cloth, battery
boxes, timing gears, brake lin
ings, ard safe'y glass.
Other products involving farm
activities which will be used, ac
cording to Mr. Patterson, are 2,
400.000 pounds of linseed oil,
341.000 pounds of castor oil, 2,-
500.000 gallons of molasses.
- “Ford already has gone far
enough to prove that Industry
can ne a good customer of the
farmer,* he said.
