Swift & Company
PubKcity
At a recent hearing of the Federal Trade Commission there
was introduced correspondence taken from the private files of
Swift & Company,which showed that the Company had been con
sidering for some time an educational advertising campaign.
The need for this publicity has been apparent to us for sev
eral years. The gross misrepresentation to which we have
recently been subjected has convinced us that we should no longer
delay in putting before the public the basic facts of our business,
relying on the fair-mindedness of the American people.
The feeling against the American packer is based largely on
the belief that the income and well-being of the producer and
consumer are adversely affected by the i packers' operations,
resulting in unreasonably large profits.
Swift & Company's net profit is reasonable, and represents
an insignificant factor in the cost of living.
For the fiscal year 191 the total sales and net profit of Swift
& Company were as follows:
, $875,CGO,000. C
$34,650,000. V
This is equivalent to a $3,465. profit on a business of $87,500.
If Swift & Company had made no profit at all, the cattle raiser
would have recek-e.d only one-eighth of cent per pound more for hia
cattle, or the consumer would have saved only one-quarter of a cent per
pound on dressed tecf. . V ,

How to Read.
At best tlib printed words of an au
thor represent bgt a poor fraction of
what Is in his thought and feeling, of
what he would express If he could.
Therefor, it Is well to follow Ruskin's
ijvlce on "rending for the ' thought."
.ud "get Into the habit of looking In
tensely at words mid assure yourself
i-f their inclining syllable by syllable
!.ny, letter by letter." Not only does
Ills help you to understand the au
thor's meaning by comprehending his
words, but the ac;i of concentration
fertilizes and awakens your own mind
and tends to bring you Into euch sym
pathy with the, Idea expressed, and
with the author, that you are Illumined
by far more of the subject than the
I rlnted words alone contain. William
