"The Modern Packing House" by David I. Davis is a scientific publication that appears to have been written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive treatise serves as a detailed guide on the design, construction, equipment, and operation of meat packing houses, specifically reflecting American practices of the time. The book emphasizes modern methods of efficiently utilizing by-products of meat processing and ensuring quality control throughout various stages of meat production. The opening of the treatise introduces the background and significance of the modern packing house industry, highlighting its rapid growth and the innovative shifts that brought it to prominence. It discusses the importance of concentration and conservation in meat processing, detailing how centralized slaughtering practices evolved from earlier methods. Moreover, the text outlines key operational components such as chilling and refrigeration, stressing their vital role in maintaining product quality and the economic benefits gained from the effective management of by-products. This sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the complexities and necessities involved in running a meat packing plant throughout the subsequent chapters.
