During that time an efficient money-saving sys tem of marketing has been developed. Science has been utilized to find new uses for many products that once were waste and better uses for old products. Multiplied uses have in creased volume. Increased volume has resulted in decreased Manu facturing and marketing expense. , Experience, science and skill have reduced waste to a minimum. Swift's marketing system means only one profit and that is low For the entire operation of convert ing live animals into Premium Ham and Bacon, Brookfield Sausage and other finished meut products and dis tributing them to the retailer, Swilt & Company receives a profit from all sources averaging only a fraction of a cent per pound. The National Distribution Con ference in 1925 found the whole sale expenses of the packers' branch houses to be the lowest of the seven teen trades studied. These economies of operation make possible full market value for live stock and lowest possible prices for meat. Swilt & Company serves both producer and consumer efficiently and well. iwift & Company VMt m kik'u j Mr. and Mis.
