Swift & Company is equally effective in saving waste in the distribution of products. ) Fromranchor farm to your meatdealer there is no loss of time, money, material, or 3n0tion. Four hundred branch sales houses in large cities and towns, hundreds of regu- lar refrigerator car routes reaching small towns, all directed by wire from a central point, bring meat products from our packing plantslocated in producing areas, to retailers in all parts of the country in the best possible condition, in the least possible time, at the least possible cost, and over the most direct route. The total expense, for manufacture, freight, and selling direct to the retailer, is less than three cents per pound or all meat sold. Our profit from all sources is only a fraction of a cent per pound. Competition compels this close-cutsav- ing. Large volume of business, a well-tal- anced, nation-wide organization, and expert attention to details by men who know, make it possible. We are in your service—at least expense and profit.
