Fig. 1.— One of the Largest City Milk Plants, with a Capacity for Handling 

 Approximately 15,000 Gallons Daily. 



The average per gallon investment for the group of largest plants in Detroit was approximately S30. 



Fig. 2.— Attractive but Expensive Equipment. 



The disproportionate per gallon investments in equipment between small and large dealers are 

 caused mainly by the well-kept and attractive horses, barns, wagons, and wagon sheds. Such 

 costly investments, however, together with other advertising expenses, are necessitated by 

 competition.
