Swift & Company not only
performs the manufacturing op-

market in its we'll equipped
packing plants, but it pays the
freight on meat to all parts Of
the United States, operates 500
branch distributing houses, and
in most cases even delivers to
the retail butcher. All this is
done at an expense of less than
2 cents per pound, and at a
profit of only about of a cent
per pound of beef.

expert management, make pos
