Packers' Profits
The public should understand that
the profits of the packg^ have been
limited by the Food Administration
since November 1, 1917. .For this pur
pose, the business of Swift & Company
is now divided into three classes:
Class 1 includes such products as beef,
pork, muttCMi, oleomargarine and
others that are essentially ahimal
products. Profits ar^e limited to 9
per cent of the capital employed in'
these departments, (including sur
plus and borrowed money), or not
to exceed two and a half cents on
each dollar of sales.
Class 2 inchf^W the soap, glue,
' fertilizer, and other departments
more or le^ associated with the
meat business. M^y of these de
partments are in competition with
outside businesses whose profits
are not limited. Profits in this class
are restricted to 15 per cent of the
capital employed.
Class 3 includes outside investments,
such as those in stock yards, and
the operation of packing plants in
' forei^ countries. Profits in this
class are not limited.
Total profits for all departments
together in 1918' will probably be
between three and four per cent on
an increased volume of^es.
The restrictions absolutely guar
antee a reasonable relation between
live stock prices and wholesale meat
prices, because the packer’s profit can
not possibly average more than a
fraction of a cent per pound of product.
Since the profits on meat (Glass 1)
jare running pr^ about 2 cents on each
dollar of sales, we haye to depend on
the profits from so^pi^ glue, fertilizer
(Class 2, also limited) and other depart
ments, (Class 3) to obtain, reasonable
earnings on capital.
' - Swift & Company is conducting
its busine^ so as to come within these
limitations;

Syracuse Aids in Good Work.
Syracuse Is a community that has
lately joined the shade-tree fraternity,
and, moreover, is working at It. Syra
cuse university has a school of for
estry, recently established. Including
the first definite course on street silvi
culture. By means of Its extension de-
.lartment it Is aiding 4n New York
state In the shade-tree Idea. The city,
has recently appointed a city foreste:
a graduate of thA^chool—a good be^
ginning. The pare superintendent and
the city forester have exclusive control
of existing tree^and power to set out
new plantings. With proper apprecia
tion, of trees as a decorative factor
and of the splendid possibilities of that
city set on Its seven hills, we may ex
pect results If the municipal authori
ties ^ill grant sufficient funds. At
present they give about $7,000 per year
for the maintenance of their 45,000
trees, which means about 15 cents per
tree per annum. Much of this is spent
In taking down dead trees. (The park
department of the city, of Paris pays
$1,25 per tree per. annum; the city
of Newark, 50 cents.)
