for Packer's Profit in 1917.
The Meat BUI is one of the large
items in the family budget
but
less than 10 cents per week of it goes to
the packer in profits.
In converting live stock into meat
and getting it into the hands of the retail
dealer, the packer performs a complex
and essential service with the maximum
of efficiency.
The above statement is based on Swift & Company's
1917 figures and Federal Census data:
Swift & Company's total Output 5,570,000,000 Pounds
(Meat and by-products)
