13 Dollars-
13 Cents
When Swift & Company
paid, say,—13 dollars per hun-
dredweight for live beef cattle
last year, the profit was only
13 cents! In other words, if we
had paid $13.13, we would have
made no profit
Or, if we had received a
quarter of a cent per pound less
for dressed beef we would have
made no profit
It is doubtful whether any
other business is run on so close
a margin of profit
This is bringing the producer
and the consumer pretty close
together—which should be the
object of any industry turning
raw material into a useful form.
Thia remarkable showing is due to
enormous volume, perfected facilities
(packing plants strategically located,
branch houses, refrigerator cars, etc.),
and an (army of men and women
chosen and trained to do their special
work.
This, and many other points of
interest, are found in the Swift ft
Company Year Book for 1919, just
published which is brought out for the
public as well as for the 25,000 Swift
ft Company shareholders.
The Year Book also represents the
packer's side of the Federal Trade
Commission investigation, upon which
Congress is asked to base action
against the industry.
Many who have never heard the
packer's side are sending for the Year
Book.
Would you like one ? Merely mail
your name and address to the Chicago
office and the book will come to you.
