Swift & Company's 1925 Year Book, which has just been issued, tells about, our produce plants located in tho best farming commu nities, how we buy cream and pro duce the best grade of butter, which ' goes under the Brookfield Brand. It tells how, in order that nothing "may be lost, we us9 the buttermilk . mixed with grain to feed chickens so that they are" good enough to carry our famous Premium Milk Fed Chicken and Golden -West Fatted Fowl brands. Eggs also are purchased, carefully candled and graded and the best marketed as Brookfield. The growth of the produce busi ness from a haphazard, itinerant occupation and its development into a scientific industry are fascinating.. The story will be found on page 39 of the Year Book. There are many other interesting stories, also. A copy of the Year Book on tequett, free.
