Of the year book Of the SSrd annual
meeting Of the stockholders Of swift

10 Swift & Co. In an address by tho
wee president is contained the follow
ing statement:
The year was also marked by record
receipts Of cattle, which were the iars-
est in the history Of the country. When
the 1916 marbetings Of cattle showed
such an increase over previous year. II
was commonly believed that this was
done at the expense of the number OF
cattle remaining on farms. but the Sec
rotary Of Agriculture stated in his an
uual report that the number Of live cat
tie on farms in January. 1917. had IN
creased in spite Of the greater siaught-
erings of the previous year.
1--WE learn from the recently issued
annual report of the Secretary OF Agri-
culture that the record-breaking mar
ketings OF 1917 have again been accom-
panied by an increase in the number or
cattle on farms. and that January 1919
finds more thar there were a year age.
The number Of hogs received al the
central markets showed a slight de-
crease. as compared Will A'AV. A
need for hog products on the part Of the
Allies will no doubt act as a stimulant
for greater hog production in the near
future. The number Of sheep marketed
also showed a decline as compared with
1916.
"The Federal Trade Commission has
been investigating all phases o. the
meat industry. and its accountants have
spent several months during the past
year examining our books. We have
given these accounts every facility. and
believe that the investigation Will be Of
value in helping to set at rest some OF
the unfounded statements that are COM
monty made to the effect that packers
profits are unreazonably high.
