There is no foundation for the alleged
violations of law attributed to pur Com-
pany by agents of the Federal Trade
Commission and I want to say emphatic-
ally that Swift & Company is got a party to
any conspiracy to defraud the Govern-
ment. Nor has Swift & Company been
guilty of improperly storifig foods or of
making false entries or reports.

We have done our best, with other
packers, large and small, to comply with
the directions of the United States Food
Administration ift all particulars, including
the furnishing of food supplies for the U.S.
Army and Navy and the Allies, now be-
ing handled through the Food Adminis-
tration /
Tf
he We will continue to do our utmost, un-
I der Government direction, to increase our
I< production and assist the Food Adminis-
Ka tration. We consider that the opportunity
P to co-operate whole-heartedly and to our
fullest powers with this branch of the
Government is our plain and most press-
ing duty.

The Trade Commission Attorney has, (nN

The services of the packers of the
United States are most urgently needed,
and] regret exceedingly that we should at
this time have to spend our efforts in
defending ourselves against unfounded,
unpproved, and unfair assertions such as
ate being daily made public.

| THIS SURELY IS QUITE
A WONDERFUL RECORD
| ven feed high, we doubt
| whether there is a4 more profitable
source of revenue on the farm than a
| rood herd of fine cows Our readers
| will remember that recently we pub- |
| lished an article which stated that
John Brubaker received a milk check
lof $528 from twenty head of cows,
|an average of $26.40 of milk per
cow. This was a better record than
{was ever heard of around here but
|we can beat that. Mr. John W.
| Eshleman of near Elizabethtown, has
| a very good herd of cattle, mostly
{ Holsteins He has twenty-two head
[and his milk check last month was
[$625.00 or an average of $28.41 per
‘cow. At that rate Mr. Eshleman’s
| cows would produce over $7,500 |
{ worth of milk in a year. We feel|
| certain this latter record will stand |
{and will be a good mark for our|
at. |
| many progressive farmers to aim
|
