The Branch House is the place in the packing organ ization where what the packing plant does for you is put where you can use it. Both are the natural result of growth and development in the living thing they belong to. Swift & Company Branch houses are located in distributing centers all over the country. They are fitted out with refrigerating equipment to keep meat cool, sweet and fresh. 1 Each one is in personal charge of a man vho believes in what Swift & Company is doing for people and wants to help do it. They are directed by men who have spent years learning how to get better meat cheaper to the places where it is needed. Meat is shipped to the branch houses direct from the packing plants in Swift & Company's refrigerator cars, in such quantities that it can be disposed of while fresh and sweet. Your meat dealer comes here to buy your meat for you unless someone else can treat him better than we can. So you need the branch house in order to live well; and the branch house and the packing plant need each other, in order to be useful to you. Swift & Company, U. S. A. Ashland Local Branch F.
