One Of the largest single orders for
meats ever given to packing company by
the government was placed yesterday with
the Jacob Dold Packing company of Kan
sas City. It was for the delivery within
thirty days of 2,5O0,OOO pounds or !. $50 tons
of cured pork sides, hams and bacon for
the army and navy. The meats are to be
delivered at points to be designated by
the government, probably at Tampa, Key
West, San Francisco and Chickamauga
The meats will cost the government
about 5000, 900. and it will take about p. 900
hogs to fill the order, and the company
will probably put on extra help and the
plant run overtime to fill the order. 1t
will require 125 refrigerator cars, which
will be divided itno six trains, TO haul the
meats. All the large packers Of the coun-
try made bids for this large order. This
is an enormous order for a single con-
tract. and is an indication of the high
degree of standing this enterprising firm
has with the government as well as 9TH
ers. Their prompt and careful attention
to all the details OF this complex and
intricate industry have had no little effect
in making them among the great packing
and produce establishments of the coun-
try.
The packing plant OF the Dold company
is well equipped to fill the order in plenty
of time. The first consignment OF the
order will be taken from the stock on
hand in the immense store houses and
cellars of the company The plant has
recently been enlarged in several of it's
branches, and new machinery put in. It
would not tax the plant to I'll the order
within thirty days, but the company win
fiji It as soon a : possible so there will be
no chance for delay on any account. The
DOid company will use its own refrigera-
tor cars to carry the meats. It is likely
that considerable OF Il win go to San
Francisco TO be shipped from there to
help provision Dewey's squadron, or to
provision the army of occupation, IL one
is sent to the Philippines. A large part
OF it will go to Tampa and will be taken
TO Cuba If the army goes there soon
Part OF It viii be delivered at Key West
for the men Of SIMPSONS fleet.
In the event of unlocked fer emergency.
the Wichita plant will be called upon
to assist in filing this contract, the most
important the government has thus far
let.
