I weighed one this morning just for the heck of it. 25 pounds for the average 10 gallon. I don't know of a truck that would haul 200 cans. They were classified by what they held on the floor. Way back early on,most were 66 can boxes. 11 rows of six wide. Later on they went mostly to 72s and 78s. I had an 84. The biggest one I ever saw was a 92. The top decks would hold whatever the floor held minus three rows in the doorway. So my 84 held 150. In spring flush,we'd stack them two high in the doorway too,so there was the capacity to haul 168 if it was really necessary.
As far as the weight in the can,you have to remember,nobody stood there with a teacup topping them off. You couldn't even see the milk in the can. The strainer was on it. You'd lift the strainer before you dumped a milker in it and if it was up to the seam,you'd most likely switch to an empty,not stand there and dump a little in,wait for it to run through and dump a little more. You wanted to just dump it and get the milker back on another cow. That's why the average was 72 pounds of milk in one.

Today's Featured Article - Ford Part Number Trivia - by Forum Participants. "Replaced by" means the part was superseded. All of my part books date back to 1964 and New Holland have changed some part numbers. They usually put the old Ford part number on the package. I was suppressed when I looked up the part number of the auxiliary drive shaft because for some reason the part number went through a radical change and it lost its "Basic Part Number". Ford part numbers follow the following rules. Most part numbers are in three parts. The middle part is called the
