Show I No Mystery in Meat III Some things are so simple that they j 1 have to be explained again and again. J II When things are obvious, people keep j II looking for mysteries behind them. y H1 1 So it is with the packing business. The I I mere size of Swift & Company confuses j j jjy many. Because their imaginations are m not geared up to scale, they believe there j ; must be magic in it somewhere some 1 weird power. Swift & Company is just like any other manufacturing business, run by HI human beings like yourself, it takes in raw material on the one hand and turns H out a finished product on the other. IJS Swift & Company keeps down the , 111 "spread", or the expense absorbed between 'II raw and finished material, to as low a I figure as possible. (If it didn't it wpuld If be put out of business by others who do.) jljl How much Swift & Company pays for the raw III material, and how much it gets for the finished pro-III pro-III duct, depends upon conditions which Swift & Company HI does not control. ijjij It depends entirely upon how much people want 1 the finished product, and how much raw material there is available to make it from. J; The profits of Swift & Company amount to less ; : than one cent per pound on all meats and by-products, f , less than one-fourth of a cent on beef.
