What
The Packers
Do
For
You
Not very many years ago in tho
history of
the
world,
the man
that
lived
in America had
to
hunt
for
his
food,
or
go
without
0
Now he sits down
at a
table
and
decides
what
he
wants
to eat; or
his
wife calls
up the
market
and
has
it
sent
home
for him.
And
what
he gets
is
incomparably better.
Everyone
of
us has some
part
in
tho
vast
human
machine,
called
society;
that
makes
all
this
conven-ience
possible.
The packer's part
is
to
prepare
meat and
get it to every
part
of
the
country
sweet
and
fresh
to
obtain
it
from tho stock raiser,
to
dress
it, cool
it,
ship
it many
miles in special
refrig-gerat-orcars, keep it
cool
at
distrib-uting
xpoints,
and
get
it
into
the
consumer's hands
your hands
through
retailers, all
within about
two
weeks.
For this
service
so
perfect
and
effective
that
you
are
scarcely
aware
that
anything
is
being done
for
you
you pay
the
"packers
an
average profit
of only
a
fraction
of
a cent a pound
above
actual
cost on every
pound
of
meat
you eat.
