The Farmer's
Share
Live stock is marketed from
farmer to consumer at a lower
cost than almost any other farm
product.
The United State Department of
agriculture reported in 1916 that the
farmer gets for his cattle "approxi
mately two-third to three-fourths" of
the final retail price paid by the con
sumer for the resulting beef.
Under normal conditions, the farmer's
chare of retail prices of various farm
products is approximately as follows:
Butter 71 per cent
CATTLE 6623 to 75 per cent
Eggs 65 per cent
Potatoes 55 per cent
Poultry 45 per cent
Fruits 35 per cent
The difference between farmer's price
and retail price represents the necessary
expenses of packing, freight and whole
sale and retail distribution.
Swift & Company not only performs
the manufacturing operations of pre
paring cattle for market in its well
equipped packing plants, but it pays the
freight on meat to all parts of the
United States, operates 500 branch
distributing houses, and in most case3
even delivers to the retail butcher. All
this is done at an expense of less than 2
rents per pound, and at a profit of only
about of a cent per pound of beef.
Large volume of business and expert
management, make possible this indis
pensable service to the live-stock raiser
and to the consumer, and make possible
the larger proportion of retail prices
received by farmers.
Year Book of interesting and
instructive facts sent on request.

Gasoline Saving
The gasoline question is not so much one of
high price as it is how to make it go farther.
In the Franklin Car, light weight gives the
gasoline less work to do, and hence less gaso
line is needed.
Friction, that drags on a car, is cut down
to the limit.
Valves in the head make the Franklin
engine turn more of the gasoline into actual
going power.
