High Cattle Prices
Accompany
High Beef Prices
If consumers are to pay less for
beef, live-stock raisers naturally will
receive less for cattle.
If farmers are paid more for live
stock, consumers will necessarily pay
more for meat.
Swift & Company pays for cattle
approximately 90 per cent of the price
received for beef and by-products.
The remaining 10 per cent pays for
dressing, freight to market, operation
of distributing housés, and in most
cases, delivery to Ahe retailer. Net
profits also have to come out of this
10 per cent.
This margin ‘cannot be squeezed
arbitrarily withéut danger of crippling
the only effective means of performing
the complex service of converting
cattle into meat and distributing this
meat to the fighting forces and to
consumers,
Swift & Company’s net profit on
beef during 1917 was only V4 of a
cent per pound. On all products, it
was a little less than four cents on
each dollar of sales. Complete elimi-
nation of these profits would not affect
appreciably retail prices of meat, or
farm prices of live stock.
Swift & Company will be glad to
co-operate in devising methods that
will improve conditions in the meat
and live stock industry.
