C., Oct, t. 1#!8. , Half a Century Ago, every community could be supplied to some extent with locally dressed meat, drawing on live stock raised nearby. Now two-thirds of the consuming centers, with millions of people, are one to two thousand miles away from the principal live-stock produc ing sections, which are sparsely Settled. The American meat packing industry of today is the development cf the best way to perform a national service- • The function of providing meat had to de velop accordingly. Those men who first grasp ed the elements of the changing problem created ihe best facilities to meet it—large packing plants and branch houses at strategic points, refrigerating equipment (including cars),.car routes, trained organization, profitable outlets, for former waste — which became the nat ural, inevitable channels for the vast, flow of rf j meat across the country. " \. • . ’ 1 4 •- ' - / ■ . If there Were a better way to perform this necessary^-service, American ingenuity and enterprise would have discovered it, and others would now be using it. r During 1918, Swift & Company has earned a profit omneats ( and meat by-products) of less than 2}4 cents per dollar of sales—too small a Ih—profit to have any appreciable effect on prices. Swift & Company,
