Bridging the Gap,

The day of transporting live
animals from ranch to seaboard
and overseas has passed. There -
was too much waste. The mod
ern packer locates his large and
specialised plants in the produc
ing regions. He ships the dressed
beef in refrigerator cars, and
holds it in his own refrigerated
branch warehouses until deliv
ered to the retailer. For ship
ment to foreign ports, he
transfers the meat to refrigerated
ships.
By means of his nation-wide organ
ization the modem packer main tains a
continuous flow of meats to all parts
of the country, so that each retailer
gets just the quantity and quality of'
meat his trade demands, and at the
time he wants it
Swift Company recently shipped
1,000 carloads of meat products in one
week to our Armies and to the Allies.
Bridging the gap from ranch to con
sumer can-be done successfully—and
at low unit costs and profits—only by
large business organizations.
Swift & Company's profit on meat
always so small as to have practically
no effect on prices, is now limited by
the Government to about 2 cents on
each dollar of sales.
