The Ford Barn

I got my '30 coupe last fall. I'm getting it ready for spring and I just changed the oil. Everything I've read on the Barn and in my manual says the engine takes five quarts of oil and, when you change it, one quart will likely stay in the engine, so you're supposed to add four quarts. I added for quarts and nothing showed up on the dipstick. I threw in the fifth quart and the level is registering a little less than halfway between the low and full markings. What's going on?
