than five hundred to-day—the car line system which embraces the use of refrigerator cars having reached the point where thousands of cars must be maintained daily; the growth and the change in the service of surplus production and the spread of distance between production and consumption; all of those things were vital factors in the financial history of the com- pany, its expansions, its metamorphosis, as it were, from packers of pork to meat packers with distribution interna- tional in its scope. The entire history of Armour and Company has been merely a history of service—economic service. The company has stood as one of the principal factors, converting the pro- ducer’s raw material into marketable products, distributing them and, in effect, redistributing the cash obtained from the consumer back to the producer. It has been a factor in per- mitting the continuation of the growth of the great manu- facturing industries, in that it has provided the workers, in the manufacturing sections in the popular centers of trade, with meat with which to keep their vitality going. ITALIAN SAUSAGE & PROVISION CO. In March, 1895, G. Pasquinelli started the manufacturing of dried sausage products, and was located at 604 Grant Street. In conjunction, he also operated a wholesale and retail meat market. His output at that time was approxi- mately 15,000 pounds per annum. One year later (1896) the first Italian Ham was cured in the United States by G. Pasquinelli. These hams are now known by the name of Prosciutti, and to-day are being manu- factured by all the leading packers throughout the United States. In September, 1907, G. Pasquinelli organized the pres- ent firm of the Italian Sausage & Provision Company, of which he is now sole owner. Their products are at present approxi- mately 200,000 pounds per annum. They are also large import- ers of Italian Cheese and Olive Oil. The business is located at 1700-02-04 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, Penna., and is managed and conducted by G. Pasquinelli and his son, S. J. Pasquinelli.
