No Mystery Some things are so simple that they have to be explained again and again. When things are obvious, looking for mysteries behind them. Soit is with the packing business. The mere size of Swift & Company confuses many. Because their imaginations are A% BRITAIF; DAILY HERALD, FR]DAY, in people keep Meat not geared up to scale, they believe there must be magic in it somewhere—some weird power. Swift & Company is just like any other manufacturing business, run by human beings like yourself; it takes in raw material on the one hand and turns out a finished product on the other. Swift & Company keeps down the “spread”, or the expense: absorbed between raw and finished material, to as low a figure as possible. (If it didn’t it would be put out of business by others who do.) How much Swift & Company pays for the raw material, and how much it gets for the finished pro- duct, depends upon conditions which Swift & Company does not control. Tt depends entirely upon how much people want the finished- product, and how much raw material there is available to make it from. The profits of Swift & Company amount to less than one cent per pound on all meats and by-products, —less than one-fourth of a cent on beef. Keep Your Pledge Make Good for Our Fighting Men J. R.

Whether any conasiderable part of the business of the Pacific is due to a mere disposition of commerce to keep away from the areas infested: by the submaries caa be determined by a study of the trade with the principal countries and frand divisions. In the trade of the United tes with FEurope, the figsures show an actual fall off .in imports and ex- ports.
