Claims Nation Could Not Be Fed at Pre sent Cost if Giant Plants Were Not Active. . BY LOUIS F. SWIFT. Editor's Note. Louis F. Swift, head of the vast organization that bears his name, in the following outlines the rea sons why America's modern complex life has given birth to his own and sim ilar companies and why their existence is important to every citizen of the Uni ted States. It is a clearly written arti cle and presents the packer's side of a disagreement that is of many years' standing. We have been hearing for a great many years, especially during the war, about the economies of producing goods on a large scale. Most of the textbooks on economics tell us that the large con cern is able to carry on its business at lower cost than a small concern for the following reasons'. It buys and sells in larger quantities and is able, therefore, to buy raw ma terials and to sell finished products to the best advantage; if it is a manufac turing concern, a largo output permits greater specialization on the part of its labor forces, and permits the use of the best manufacturing methods, with the result that manufacturing costs are re duced to the lowest possible point; large scale operations make it possible to employ highly efficient managers and to maintain research specialists; the large concorn can utilize its by-products more economically. In these respects the packing indus try is like all other industries. The large packing plant can be operated more economically than a small plant chiefly on account of the economies at tending the utilization of by-products on a large scale. Hut strange as it may seem this fact alone does not really ex plain why largo packers have come into existence. A very real reason for the development of large packing concerns is to be found in the distinctive and ab solutely necessary service they render in transporting meat products long dis tances from the producing to the con suming sections of the country. Slock In West. It so happens that approximately two thirds of the livestock of the country is produced west of the Mississippi River, while two-thirds of our population lives to the east of it: Either live animals or iresh meats must he shipped from West to East, and it has been found to be more economical to slaughter the animals in the producing sections and to ship the meat products in refrigor ator cars to the consuming sections than to ship the live animals. Before the development of the re frigerator car it was impossible' to ship fresh meats. The livestock of the West had to be shipped East for slaughter becaupe it was impossible to transport perishnblo products any great distance. The shipment of livestock to Eastern markets for slaughter was exceedingly wasteful. Many of the animals died on the long journey. Owing to the length if the haul stock arrived much shrunk en in weight. At certain points on tho ruud it was necessary to unload tho stock and give them feed, water and rest. All this Involved heavy expense. In addition there was the fact that only a little more than half the animals dressed out as meat, and in those days the balance, with the exception of the hide, was largely waste. To the other wastes of the system would be added nearly half the freight costs. The large packer has been instru mental in eliminating these wastes. Herein lies his distinctive service. His packing plants are located near the source of production. Refrigerator cars transport the products of these plants long distances (in many cases more than a thousand miles) to branch houses located In consuming centers. Ills cars are also used to carry perish able meat products to the small towns SWIFT SAYS PACKERS BENEFIT 111 i . ) Fall In, Buddy In more than 11,000 communities the world over today your old Buddies are, through The American Legion, still in action, fighting at home for the land that was good enough to fight for abroad. There are vacant places in the ranks that can never be filled blank files dedicated to the memory of old shipmates and tentmates who went West when death rode in the air and sea. But there's your old place in the line, Buddy, waiting for you, and the bugle of duty sounds "Fall in."

In short, the refrigerator ears of the large packers, together with its packing house and branch house organization, have made possible the even and eco nomical distribution of perishable meat products all over the country, notwith standing the fact that the big centers of livestock production are far removed from the large centers of consumption. This nation-wide service of the large packer has made for greater stability both in the pries of meat products and in the livestock prices. It prevents, as far as is humanely possible, gluts in one market and scarcities in another. It thereby benefits both producer and con sumer. In addition to the benefits that are derived from a nation-wide distri buting organization, there is the fact that the economical utilization of by products by the large packer enables the producer to get a higher price for his livestock and reduces the price the con sumer must pay for his meat products. While it is well to point out the eco nomies of large scale operations in tha paeking industry, it should not be over looked that the reason for the existence of large packers is not to be found alone in the economy with which they operate. The significant fact is that lrage pack ers are absolutely necessary. The pro ducers and consumers for meat products must have the long distance service which only the packer can render. Of coarse, they must also have the service of small packers who buy livestock and sell meat products in local markets. In this respect the service rendered by the small packer is essentially different from that rendered by the large packer. Each is doing a definite kind of work, but both are needed. Open to Competition. It is interesting also to. observe in this connection that whenever the bus iness of a small packer becomes Urge enough to warrant the extension of his operations to distant markets, he pur chases refrigerator cars, branch houses, etc., and becomes one of the many com petitors of the large packer. The service rendered by the large packer is not so complete or perfect as to be able to close tha road for the further growth and development of the smaller packer. I do not believe the American people fully appreciate the important part that big business has played in the develop ment of this country. "Quantity pro duction" has made it possible for pro ducers to get more for their products, and for consumers to obtain their fin ished goods at lower prices than would otherwise have been the case. This has menit more business for the producer and a higher standard of living for all. It explains why the standard of well be ing is so much higher here than abroad. And the point has now been reached in our development where it is not so much a question of the economies of large scale production as it is a ques tion of their absolute economic neces sity. We must have large business un dertakings if we are to continue to be a prosperous nation and the sooner this fact is recognized by the irresponsible agitators who would impair the service that is now rendered, the greater will be the lei cfit conferred upon producers an I consumers alike. Big business has come to stay because there are funda mental economic laws which have es tablished the necessity for its existence. . And there has never been a time when this should be emphasized so much ac now, with the foreign countries fighting for markets throughout the world.

All weekly and semi-weekly Oregon newspapers have been invited to enter the second rural news service contest with valuable prizes offered by the de partment of industrial journalism at O. A C. The papers will be judged by a committee of three at the annual meet ing of the state editorial association at Corvallis, July 21-23. "The first contest was a big thing in bringing the advertising value of s good rural news service to the attention of Oregon editors," said C. E. Ingalls of the Corvallis Gazette-Times, ex-president and present program committee chairman of the association. "As a member of the former judging commit tee I had occasion to study the close relation between tha amount and qual ity of rural news and the amount of paid advertising. You should have this contest at the annual meeting of the association by all means." To enable every newspaper in Oregon to enter the contest with a chance to win on merit the country papers have been grouped into three classes with a loving cup as first prize, fountain pen second, and honorable mention third. The classes are: First, grand champion, free for all, except dailies; second, best paper pub lished in .town of not more than 1500 population; third, paper of fewer than 28 columns all home print. The "best" must be left to the judges to decide, but they will consider the am ount of news from any community away from the publication point or news and editorials primarily for rural readers and the quality of this news and its relation to the total news and editorial space. To eliminate special "cram ming" it is specified the editors may se lect any edition of their papers publish ed in June, 1922. Oregon Jersey Breeders Would Cop All Honors Progressive Breeders Now Hold Seven of Eight Highest Places; Are Hot on Trail of Eighth. Sir Launcelot's pursuit of the holy grail was not more thrilling than the chase of the Oregon Jersey breeder's after the last of the eight honor re cords. "Of the eight classes recognized by the American Jersey Cattle club Oregon holds seven world records," said Hor ace Addie, field editor of the Oregon Farmer. "These are all except the sen ior 3-year-old, and Pickford brothers of Marion have a heifer now going on test at a clip that promises to bring that record to Oregon." Of these record cows St. Mawes Lad's Lady, bred as a senior yearling by Har ry D. Ilif of Independence, with a rec ord of 829 pounds of fat, is considered the most wonderful. She is now owned by S. J. McKee, Independence, who has other daughters of her sire on test that will soon make for him a gold medal bull. Another wonder cow is Viva La France, the only Jersey with two re cords for more than 1000 pounds of fat a year 1030 and 1030 in consecutive years. She also made a senior 4-year old record. She is owned by Pickford brothers who also own Lady Silken Glow, 1040 pounds of fat, and Old Man's Derling 2d, senior 4-year old. This is the only Jersey herd in the world with two cows making more than 1000 pounds of fat on official test. The McArthur and Stauff of Eickreall herd has a gold medal bull, Holger, with 23 daughters that averaged 614 pounds of fat on official test, the highest aver age of all Jerseys with 20 or more test ed daughters. This record was taken from another Oregon breeder, Ed Carey of Carlton whose herd some years ago had 20 test ed daughters of St. Mawes, averaging 601 pounds of fat. Carey has also the unique record of using two gold medal bulls on his herd in one period, some thing no other herd in the United States had ever done. One gold medal bull, Roseaire's Olga Lad, has eight gold medal daughters, more than any other in the entire west Four daughters of St. Mawes full sisters, have another re- cord with an averuge of 728 pounds of tat, one or wnicn nas nve register of merit daughters, three of them gold medal and four of them averaging 714 pounds. G. G. Hewitt's herd at Monmouth has Rinda Lad, sire of Lad's Iota, world record Jersey cow for all ages with a record of 1048 pounds of fat. She was record senior 4-year old at one time. She is now owned by S. J. McKee. Hewitt has live of her daughters now gold med al. Rinda Lad is full brother to Holger and these two are the only two full bro ther gold medal bulls in the world.

Many of the : bucking hroses that will be used in the show, buck altogether too hard to please the riders. One of tha famous buckers is known by the name of "Wickiup." , Few men live that can scratch this little bucker; or even stay on his back. The boys who are expecting to enter the ' bucking contests are all very anxious for practice when this horse is led into tha arena; most all of them have some-; thing else to do. I Bronco busting, steer roping, relay . aioAat ma A A i A rirsraal fubi ni-in tf rorsi ' pack horse races, bulldogging, wild horse races, are soma of the thrilling events that will take place. N. Thomsen of Ions was a visitor in Heppner on Monday. Mr. Thomsen has quite an extensive acreage which he farms in the vicinity of Ella and states that his Turkey red is going to yield him a fine crop this season. From what we can learn of him, Mr. Thomsen is coming to the front as one of the good farmers of this county and is again put ting the Ella country on the map as a wheat producing section. Jack Hynd of Cecil took on a brand new Buick from Messrs. Vaughn and Goodman of Heppner Garage this week. It won't be quite so easy to tell when Jack is coming as formerly, but he will still use the old machine as a "roust about'' for the Cecil ranch. Send for directory of Oregon man ufactured goods.
