The total distributive sales for 1905 exceeded $200,000,000. This total Is realized from the sale of fresh meats ( beef , mutton and pork ) , provisions , produce ( poultry , butter and eggs ) , soaps , glues , oils , bones , fertlllzers , fenthers , casings , hides , wools , pe ts end othcr b.prod. ucts derived from cattle , sheep , hogs and poultry. Margin of Profit , The Industry Is operated on a mar. gin of less tha11 2 cents to each dol. lar of sales. Swift & Co. do not sell at retall. Their entire output Is sold at wholesale to many thousands of dealers In various parts of the world. There are hundreds of local slaughter. ors throughout the United States. who buy their Uve stocl , In competi. tlon with the packer doing an Inter. state nnd International business. Like. wise the pacler must sell In compe. tltlon with the local slaughterers. There are no secret processes In the Industry , no compUcated and expen. sivo factories , and as livo' stoCI , can b9 purchased in almost every hamlet and city , and the preparation of meats Is simple In the extreme , local slaughtering wlU long remain a fac. tor in the production of fresh meats and provisions , Economic Advantages. The large pac1ting houses will , however - ever , always have these advantages : Locations at the chief live stock cen. ters , with the opportunity to buy the best live stockj manufacturing In largo quantities , at the minimum of expensej utlllzation of all waste mate- rlalj refrigeration : mechanical appli. ances j highly efficient business man. agement. These ndvantages are reflected - flected In the quality of the packer's output , a quality that has leached its highest development In the products bearing the name and brand ot "Swift.

At Chicago , which Is the largest marltCt , there are about two hundred and fifty buyers , repre- sontlng pacl\Crs , local slaughterers In ynrlous clUes and exporters. Of this number , less than a score are employ. ed by Swift & Company. The farmer ships his live stock to Chicago , consigns them to a commission - sion firm nt the Union tock Yards. who sees that they are unloaded and put in pens. Thcn the buyers Inspect them , maIm their offCl's to the COlD. , mission dealer , who accellts or rejects ' ns his judgment dictates , All buying must be finished at 3 o'eloclc each day , and the buyer must pay spot casb. If the commission man has no satisfactory - factory otters , he can hold hIs stocl , oyer to the next day. He gets his commission from the farmer , and hat. urnlly strives to get the highest pos. sible prIce Cor his client. Wholesale Distributing Houses. A wholesale dstrlbutlng ! house is a ginnt refrigerator , but Instead of shelves there are trolley ralls , from which are suspended hoolt8 to hang the carcasses. Some ot the house& I cost ns much as a hundred thousand' ' dollars to bulld and equip. As a. rule they are of pressed llrlel\ , the Insides being Uned-floor , walls and celllng- with highly poUshed hardwood. The fioors are covered dally with fresh sawdust , and all are 1ept spotlessly clean. There are over three hundred of these wholesale houses In various cities ot the United Statcs , and the pubUo fs always welcome to "Isit them. Packing Plants.
