Armour Packing Co.,
Kansas City, Mo.,

Gentlemen:-- Yours of the 22nd inst., is received. How often would the car have to be iced enroute? We would arrange to fill the car with fresh and salt meat, butter, eggs, etc. I am in correspondence with the railroad people, to see whether they can ice the car.

Yours truly,
E.S. Babcock
President
