Swift & Company
1918 Earnings
How They Affected You
During the twelve months ended Nov. 2,
1918 (its fiscal year), Swift & Company
transacted the largest volume of business on
the smallest margin of profit in its history.
Profits of the meat business under regulations of
the United States Food Administration were limited
to a maximum of 9 per cent on capital employed but
not to exceed cents per dollar of sales.
Swift & Company in the regulated departments
earned 7.57 per cent on capital employed and 2.04 cents
per dollar of sales, out of which had to be paid interest
on borrowed money and taxes. Here is how these
earnings affect you.
Live-Stock Raiser
Swift & Company killed 14,948,000 head
of livestock, which weighed , alive,
4,971,500,000 pounds.
Swift & Company made a profit of only a '
fraction of a cent per pound liveweight
Consumer
The sales of our meat departments were
4,012,579,000 pounds on which' our earn
ings were less than yA cent per pound. ,
The per capita consumption of meat in the United
States is given as 170 pounds. If a consumer purchased
only Swift & Company's products, he would contribute
only about 78 cents aryear, or lH cents a week as
profit to the company.

had based his opinion upon the powor
of the public service commission to reg

was a contract entorod into by the city
iu iu private business capacity, for a
supply of wator for hydrant use, nd
not in its governmental form. Judge
ilunt cited no case tiliat sustained his
decision. In the district court the wa
ter company denied that the city char
ter gave it authority to make the con
tract with tho water company which it
did. Macey moved that he be authoriz
ed to petition for a re-hearing. It was
moved that the city attorney be au
thorized to tako the ease before tho
court of appeala iby brief. The motion
was opposed and the vote ehowed a
no; which was broken by the mayor
voting in the affirmative.
North gflem Question Game TJp
A good deal of interest and discus
sion was provoked by a petition from
a commit tee of iorth Salem residents,
asking tho council to join with them
in civil suits of injunction against the
state fair board to restrain them from
further diverting the natnral flow of
wnter across the fair irrouuda into a
ditch on tho south side, whereby the
flood water at that section was turned
westward and resulted in spreading out
all over that part of town, flooding
basements and cutting across roadways
City Engineer Mtott stated that he
nad investigated tho section and had
made a relief map showing that the
original and natural flow of the water
was across the fair ground, and also
testified that the storm sewers in that
section were insufficient to take eare
of the diverted water. In hia opinion:
it would cost the city from $15,000 to
$20,000 to lay a sower dram that
would carry off the wator. A motion
that the city join with the residents in
enjoining the ifair board from further
diverting the flow of wator was car
ried. The ordinances drawn by Chief Var
ney with regard to the violations of
the liquor law, and with regard to tell
ing cigarettes to minora, were read the
J. W. Marooney for the two year term,
and John J. Roberts for the one year
term.
City Library Board
As the city library board for the
coming year the mayor appointed A.
A. Lee, II. II. Olinger and 1). W. Eyre.
Much debate whirled about the min
or question as to whother one man
could efficiently care for both the eity
hall and the comfort station. It was
pointed out that the two men now em
ployed cost the eity $90 a month that
it, $50 for ths city hall and $40 for
the comfort station. One member stat
ed that ho had an application from a
man who was willing to care for both
buildings for $75 a month. The record
er cited his own observations to prove
that one man could not do justice to
bom positions. A member rocalled that
in former years one of tho firemen
took care of tho city hall for ten or
fifteen dollars month, and the fur
ther fact that there was no real labor
entailed in the ears of the comfort
station. He held that one man could
perform all the liubor connected with
both buildings and gtill 'have plenty of
time for meditation. Tho matter was
finally referred back to tho buildings
committee with power to act.

HAIR OF DANDRUFF
The only sure way to get rid of dan
druff is to dissolve it, then you de
stroy it entirely. To do this," get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gntly with the finger tips.
Po this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more appli
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every singlo sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging vf tho sculp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus
trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feci a hundred- times better.
You can got liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive and never fails
to do the work.

Ralph Hussey, Who Has
Been la Salem Fought In
Five Big Battles Of War
Ralph Itussey, who ha been, visiting
with relatives here for the past two
weeks, left today for Camp Lewis to
secure .his surgical discharge from mili
tary service. Mr. Hussey enlisted for
serviee in Battery C, of tho Fifth field
artillery in 1917, and i the nine
months in the field he was in action
on five different sectors. He took pert
in five of the great battles of the war
eoiuu through practically unscathed un
til the fifth, when the un crew of)
eight men with whom he was figting
were blown up by a shell. Seven of the
crow wero blown to atoms and Hussey
himself thiown out of the pit along
with the gun. He was so fearfully ton
by tho shell fragments that it seems a
miracle that the surgeons were ever
able to put him together. He sustained
several fractures of the ribs, one of his
hips was completely shattered and he
was almost completely disembowelled.
After being removed to the field hospi
tal furgrons removed eeores of shell
frngmonts from hia body. He hss spent
six months or more in the hospital, and
today, barring the scars oa hig anato
my, he presents a robust appearance,
althonght he hes only partial nse of tho
limb lliat was shattered.

Judging from the counties, prepara
tions and treatments whieh are contin
ually being advertised for the purpose
of making thin people fleshy, develop
ing arms, neck and bust, aud replacing
ugly noilowa and angles by the sott
curved lines ef health and beauty, there
are evidently thousands ri men and
women who keenly feel tiieir excessive
thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually
due to. starved nerves. Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contained
in modern foods. Physicians .claim
there is nothing that will supply this
actieieney so well as the organic phos
phate known among druggists as bitro
phosphate, which is inexpensive and
is sold by most all druggists under a
guarantee ef satisfaction or money
back. By feeding the nerves directly
and by supply the body cells with the
necessary phosphoric food elements,
bitro-phosphate quickly produces a
welcome transformation in the appear
ance; the increase in weight frequent
ly being astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries
with it a general improvement ia the
health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and
lack of energy, which nearly always
accompany excessive thinness, soon dis
appear, dull ryes become bright, and
pale cheeks glow with the bloom of
perfect health.
OA UTION--Although tjitro-phosphate
is unsurpassed for relieving nervous
ness, sleeplessness and general weak
ness, it should not, owing to its re
markable flesh growing properties, be
used fcy anyonf "vho does not desire to
put oa fleet.

MOTHERS! Clean the doged-up places. Do away with the bile,

like eating candy. Cascarets act better than castor oil, calomel or pills
on the tender stomach, liver and bowels. Cascarets never gripe, never
injure, -and do not disappoint the worried mother. Give harmless
