r - j \ Original Swift Plant \ Barn3tabl«Ma3s.lß6l 22 Packir^^l^^ in U.S.A. Unlike Topsy— Swift & Company Has Not “Jest Growed” Swift & Company, in fifty years of well ordered growth, has become one of the great national services because it has learned to do something for the American people which they needed to have done for them, in the way in which they preferred to have it done. It has met each successive demand, in the changing conditions of national life, by getting good meat to increasing millions effectively, efficiently, economically, and expeditiously. The Swift & Company packing plants, refrigerator cars, car routes, branch houses, organization, and personnel of today are the practical solutions, bom of practical experience, to the food problems of half a century. Because of aU these elements working in correlation and unison, Swift & Company is able to supply more and better meat to more people than would have been possible otherwise, at a net profit per pound of meatso low (a fraction of a cent) that the consumer price is practically unaffected. Strip away any portion of this vast, smooth-running human machine, and you make a large part of the meat supply uncertain, lose the benefit of half a century of fruitful experience, and scatter the intelligent energies of men who have devoted a life work toward meeting the needs of a nation in one vital field. The booklet of preceding chapters in this story of the packingindustry will be mailed on request to Swift ft Company, Union Stock Yards, Chicago, Illinois. Swift & Company, U. S. A.
