The Bottom Line
As everybody knows the bottom line represents your profit or
loss, and at WALTER M. DUNLAP AND SONS we do all we can to
enhance your profit or minimize your loss.
How do we do it?
_The answer is in the way all livestock consignments are expertly
sorted and handled whether those consignments are fat cattle,
veal calves, feeder pigs or fat hogs.
The result is LESS SHRINK.
First of all, every consignment of feeder pigs, veal calves and
fat hogs is weighed upon arrival. So, with LESS SHRINK, and at
present prices, this means MORE DOLLARS for ydu the con
signor.
Secondly, all fat cattle are assigned large pens and each con
signment is kept separate. With large airy pens and water
available the result is LESS SHRINK.
And just one more matter of importance There is no waiting
at the docks to unload.
•What does all this add up to?
The bottom line is LESS SHRINK and more dollars to you the
consignor.
