Forced to Be Big!

If bigness is crime, Armour and Company are

y Some one has wisely said
that Production waits on dis
tribution." In other words,
there can be no incentive to
stock-growers to produce more
livestock unless adequate out
lets are provided to keep pace
with the production. When
greater yield is created on the
farm, the outlet must be wild
ened at the market to care
for It.
armour and Company are
large because the livestock IN
dust7'y is large. Obviously the
packing industry must keep
pace with the increase of live
stock and population growth.
AS herds increased, the Armour
organization kept step with
them. New plants were erect
ed in the centers of new stock
raising regions; improved oper-
ating methods, were adopted;
more refrigerator cars were
built to carry the food.
Then, with the outbreak of
war, the wisdom of this devel-
opment had a chance to prove
itself. In spite of labor short
age, disrupted railway service,
and scores of other difficulties,
Armour and Company and
other similar concerns were
equipped to instantly meet the
War Departments call for food.
In addition to shipping over a
hundred carloads of meat a
day, or seventy-f1ve million
pounds a month, to the Army
and Navy, we have taken care

of civilian requirements in the
usual way.
With an increase in cattle
production, encouraged by the
Food Administrations high
prices, had to come further in
creased facilities for preparing
and marketing not only the
meat, but the hides, hoofs and
all other parts of the animal.
TO meet the influx of the hun
dreds of additional cattle daily,
we were compelled to erect a
new building in ninety days,
build additional coolers, tanks
to handle the rendered. prod
ucts, dryers, buildings to treat
and handle castings, additional
oleo kettles, hide storage ware
houses, etc.
With the return to normal
conditions, these facilities ex-
banded during the stress of war
to provide stock-growers with
necessary outlets, and to fur
nish food in adequate quanti-
ties for both Army and civilian
needs-are still at the service
of the public. They represent
a permanent investment, assur-
ing a permanent outlet and
thus a permanent supply of best
foods at true value prices. II
Today, with Europe looking
to America as it's most certain
source of supply, together with
our own country to be fed,
Armour and Company's size
and ability to handle large vol
ume most efficiently and eco
nomically becomes of greater
Importance than ever.

RECREATION CAMP
 PROJECT FAVORED
Burlington Site An Ideal One, Com- mittcc BeiieVcS-N1iSundCrS
 About Sanitation Is Explained.

The committee of welfare work kerS and charity organization representa- tives that visited the city tract at Bur lingtOn yesterday for the purpose of reporting upon the advisabilty of esta blishing a summer recreation camp there, is highly enthusiastic about the project. The plan is to have several buildings devoted to the care of sickly and dunder-nOurishcd children whose parents cannot afford to send them away, but whose heAlth really requires such treatment.
 Through a misunderstanding ad- verse comment has been heard in some circles over the project, it being the belief of some that the presence of sickly children would serve to con- taminate the city water. Superintend- ent w. M. Stockwell of the board of health explained this morning that no tubercular children will be sent to that recreation camp nor will any buildings directly upon the watershed be used to house the children. There are enough buildings far removed from the watershed to make possible the establishing of a camp without danger.
 It was further explained that the matter is merely in the eXperim ental stage and whether it is proven a wise move or not the Burlington tract will never be used for a permanent camp.
 If it proves to be an unwise plan the WhCle matter will be dropped. If aft CT one or two seasons the movement becomes popular, a camp will be es- abolished nearer the city. The present site is an ideal one, however, being 1000 feet above sea level, easy of ac- cess and having all natural resources beneficial to the children's health The water board explained that the water from this source would not be available for city uso for two years at least, thereby giving the city ample time to try out this proposed experi- ment without danger of contaminatiug the water supply.

 Colonel Amery, under-secretary for the colonies, said it was most inn portant that financial control remain in British hands, adding that if American capital went to Canada it meant more Canadian capital for de- veloping other portions of the empire.
