The Farmer Receives More Than Five Thousand Dollars a Minute From Swift & Company This amount is paid to the farmer for live stock, by Swift & Company alone, during the trading hours of every business day. All this money is paid to the farmer through the open market in competition with large and small packers, ship- pers, speculators and dealers. The farmer, feeder, or shipper receives every cent of this money ($300,000 an hour, nearly $2,000,000 a day, $11,500,000 a week) in cash, on the spot, as soon as the stock he has just sold is weighed up. Some of the money paid to the farmer during a single day comes back to the company in a month from sale of products; much does not come back for sixty or ninety days or more. But the next day Swift & Company, to meet the demands made by its customers, must pay out another $2,000,000 or so, and at the present high price levels keeps over $250,000,000 continuously tied up in goods on the way to market and in bills owed to the company. This gives an idea of the volume of the Swift & Company busi- ness, and the requirements of financing it. Only by doing a large business can this company turn live stock into meat and by-products at the lowest possible cost, prevent waste, operate refrigerator cars, distribute to retailers in all parts of the country—and be recompensed with a profit of only a fraction of & cent a pound—a profit too small to have any noticeable effect on the price of meat or live stock.

He was intensely I interested in perpetuating the paper which he had built and the publishing business which he had inherited from his father. We all remember the serious illnes in 1914 which culmi- nated in the stroke which he suffered in September of that year, and his great anxiety that his business shoulc be carried on without reference to I personal affairs or his personal parti- | cipation, and it was this that led him to intrust the business to a committee of his friends in order to enable it to | be carried on for him. This trust | is still in existence. We have no doubt that in making the will in the form in which we find it he intended to | create a similar trust for those pro- parties, but if conditions existed at the time which made such a will ad- visable, we think they no longer exist. “In taking this action we believe that we are doing what Mr. Collier would have wished under the condi- tions that exist today; and we wish to | L assure you earnestly that we will co- rate in the most friendly spirit in A Remarkable Offer made to the Sick for this ng you to carry on the admini- Visit only, by stration of the estate and arrange for the future New England’s Wanderful Specialist s, and we hope that you will not h —WIO WILL BE AT— Hotel Beloin ly for all the advice and assist!
