Libby, McNeill & Libby.

The visitor passing through the plant of Messrs. Libby, McNeill & Libby, Chicago, is not only deeply interested in the cutting rooms, cooking kitchens, canning department and the wonderful mechanical contrivances for accomplishing the work speedily, but is greatly surprised by the vastness of their industry of packing and preserving dainty meats and specialties for consumers all over the world. Some idea of the enormous business of this firm can be obtained from the fact that they require capacity for 300,090 cattle and 100,000 sheep per annum, manufacture forty millions of cans a year or an average of 140,000 cans a day, and require 2.000 emp!"jjes to meet the demands of their trade.
