Mm mm Less Than a Nickel Week This is all that Swift & Com pany's profit cost the average American family in 1919. Here are the figures and author ' ities for them. The average consumption of meat per person for a year is about 180 pounds (U. S. Government). The average American family is 4'j persons (U. S. Census). Swift & Company's profit from all sources in 1919 averaged less than V4 cent per pound on all products including meat This averages for the family leu than the price of 1 cigar per week for father, or 1 street car fare per week for mother, or 1 package of gum per week for the children.
