You Can’t Eat Meat
100 Miles Away
Preparing meat is only a part
of Swift & Company’s usefulness.
The finest meat in the world
wouldn’t do you any good one
hundred miles away from your
table.
Swift & Company efficiency has made
it possible to place complete lines of
products in the smallest and most remote
communities.
To be sure the work is done well
Swift & Company, through its branch
houses and car routes, brings the meat to
the retail dealer for you.
Swift & Company lays out car routes
covering towns—big, little, medium size
—which are not served by a Swift
branch house.
Salesmen find out in advance what is
wanted by the dealers in every town.
They are followed by refrigerator cars
loaded with retailers’ orders, which are
delivered at each town—fresh, clean, and
sweet—once or twice each week.
Swift & Company operates a large
number of car routes like this, from four
teen distributing plants.
This is a necessary and natural part
of the packers' usefulness. It fits into
the industry in an orderly, effective way.
It makes better meat cheaper from one
end of the land to the other.

a good time and at the same time
learned things which he will never
forget. He attended a Y. M. C.
