Cattle Buying for
Swift & Company

Swift & Company buys more than
5000 head Of cattle, on an average,
every market day.
Each one of them IS sized up" by
experts.
Both the packers puyer and the
commission salesman must Judge what
amount of meat each animal will yield,
and how fine it will be, the grading of
the hide, and the quantity and quality
of the fat.
Both must know market conditions
for live stock and meat throughout the
country. The buyer must know where
the different qualities, weights, and
kinds Of cattle can be best marketed
as beef.
If the buyer pays more than the
animal is worth, the packer loses money
on it. If he offers less, another packer,
or shipper or feeder gets it away
from him.
If the seller accepts too little thel live
stock raiser gets less than he lis entitled
to. If he holds out for more than it is
worth, he fails to make sale.
"A variation Of few cents in the price
per hundred pounds is matter ofvital
Importance to the packer, because it
means the difference between profit
and loss.
