IT is generally known that tr.o livestock supply varies
from day to day, and that juices Jluctuatt in conse
quence. It m nul so generally understood that the retail
demand for fresh meat varies tremendously also, and
that, in consequence, the price obtained by Armour and
Company fluctuates, too.
When fresh meat is finished
at the plants it Is shipped to
Armour branch houses located
in more than 4 00 centers of
consumption. And, this meat
Is shipped unsold. The branch
Louse manager receives with it
a memorandum of what It cost
to produce the meat. It Is a
simple matter then for him to
determine what he must seek
to get for it if he Is to show a
profit. And, he must sell It in
the open market, in direct com
petition with other packers
branch houses, local abattoirs,
and so forth. Also. he. must
face the umertainties of
weather, heavy. rtnAtp's of fioh
flwl and, oKtBgSexpectcd
iin tiiuswl circirmfeaces.
Under tha heading- of " .n
usual circumstances" for in
stance, would come the recent
epidemic of Spanish Influenza.
Statistics gathered by Armour
and Company show th: : while
the epidemic was at its height
freah iueit purchases the coun
try over fell off no less than
2f per cent.
A sudden wave of intense
heat; a severe blizzard which
blocks roads and makes trans
portation difficult; heavy re
ceipts of lish or game; local
killed meats coming on the
markets in small communities
all or any of these factors
have a marked effect on the de
mand for fresh meats.
Branch house managers
must because storage facili
ties demand it dispose of
their stock each week so far as
possible. This often necessi
tates selling below cost.
Thus, if statistics be con
sulted, it will be found that the
celling; price of Armour and
Company's fresh meats paral
lels the price of livestock and
is constantly further affected
by the conditions mentioned.
With these facts in view, fair
minded readers must compre
hend that It Is not possible for
Armour and Company to tlx the
price of meats.
