Low Meat Pricesvs.

High Cattle PricesIf the farmer cannot get enough for

his live stock, he raises less, and thepacker gets less raw material.

If (he consumer has to pay too muchfor his meat, he eats less of it, und thepacker finds his market decreased.

The packer wants the producer toget enough to make live-stoc- k raisingprofitable, nnd he wants the price of meatso low that everyone will eat it.

But all he can do, und what he wouldhave to do in any case to stay in bus!-- 1

ncss, is to keep down the cost ofccssin the farmer's stock into meat sothat the consumer pays for the meat andby-produc- ts only u little more than thefarmer gets for his animals.

Forcxample.last year Swift & Companypaid for its cattle about 90 per cent ofwhat it got for meat and by-produ-

(such as hides tallow, oils, etc.)

If cattle from the farm were turnedmiraculously into meat in the hands ofretailers (without going through the ex-pense of dressing, shipping lind market-ing), the farmer would get only aboutlls cents per pound more for his cattle,or consumers would pay only about 2licents per pound less for their beef I

Out of this cent or two per pound,Swift & Company pays for the operationof extensive plants, pays freight on meats,operates refrigerator cars, maintainsbranch houses, and in most cases, de-livers to retailers all over the UnitedStates. The profit amounts to only afraction of a cent, and a part of thiprofit goes to build more plants, to givebetter service, and to increase the com-pany's usefulness to the country.
