It shows where the money goes that
Swift & Company takes in.
It shows that out of every dollar
received by Swift & Company from the
sale of meat and by-products in 1918
1 Swift and Company paid for
live animals ... - 85.00 cents
2 Swift & Company paid out
for labor, freight and other
expenses ----- 12.96 cents
3 Swift Cz. Company had lsft a
profit of only - - - - 2.04 cents
Total 100.00 cents
The 2.04 cents remaining as profit equals only
a fraction of a cent per pound. It is too small to
affect materially the price of live stock to the farmer
or the price of meat to the consumer.

All Effort, to Amend Famou, Statute
of Pennylvanl Hav Thut Fir
Been Unavailing.
Once more an effort Is to be made
to amend the most famous of all
laws on the statute books of Penn
sylvania the venerable blue law, en.
acted April 22, 1704.
It Is suid that at every regular ses
sion of the legislature during the 125
years since Hint awful crimp was put
In Sunday conviviality, an attempt has
been made to repeal It entirely or to
amend It, Glrnrd writes In the Phila
delphia Press.
But that old law entitled "An net
for the prevention of vice and Im
morality and for other purposes," has
survived all the assaults of those who
would destroy It. -
A century and a qunrter of world
revolution, of tumbling thrones, of daz
zling Inventions and economic and so
cial changes finds that statute of 1794
as unbreakable and rigid as the eter
nal laws of the Modes and Persians.
Those old legislation bricks of 1TSH
regarded It as being vastly more
wicked to shoot a rabbit on Sunday
than to drink a hot toddy.
One offender was tagged with a fine
of $25, the other a shilling and a half.
It wns Impossible under a strict en
forcement of that law to operate n
cannt hont, a railroad train, a street
rnllwny car, a cab or sell any com
modity from a lonf of bread to a pack
age of chewing gum.
Every seventh day the state of Penn
sylvania wns expected to freeze up
completely like a good bird dog when
he seec a quail.
WORLD MUST HAVE NITROGEN
Men of Science Preparing for the Time
When the Chilean Nitrate Fielda
Are Exhausted.

Not only the power to produce crops,
but also the power to wage war and
to develop many essential Industries
depends upon nitrogen. Before the
war the Avium n chemist, Ostwnld,
wrote: "If a great war were to break
out between two grent powers, one of
which were to prevent the export of
saltpeter from the few ports of Chile,
It would thereby make It Impossible
far the enemy to continue longer than
Its ammunition supply would last."
Germany bad accumulated 600,000
tons of Chilean saltpeter before the
war. It Is estimated that the' Chilean
nitrate beds wIJI be exhausted some
time during the present century. Sci
entists and engineers, therefore, are
bending every effort to other means of
supply. Nitrogen Is now being recov
