Hut figure, iyiiruint phenomenal growth from a single varnish plant in 1917 to a great diversified oqtifliadoo of 36 umo todtj, scprcseocs sales of an unusual combination of seemingly unrelated prodnm--Hsted in die pend at the right. Glidden'* growth and dmuikttioa have sot been accidental--but die mult of a logical principle and pattern. The evolution from paints to foods is e good illustration. Having learned that uniform quality can be assured only by control of raw materials, the company began to crush flsstcorf to msbe linseed oil for its paints, fiat then were long periods when the crushing mill stood idle. It wsx found, however, that mills of this type could be used to crush and extract edilde oils from a wide variety of other seeds and sues. This led to the prosetdag and repmimg of such edible oils as cocoanut, c t h u ,peanut; soybean,cottonseed,sesametod other*. The next logical step was to completely utilise these edible ofis by manufacturing diem into fin ished food products such as shortening, margarine and salad dressings To provide facilities for sods manufacturing and for distribution, Glidden ac quired die entire Duxkee Famous Foods organiza tion and thus became a major factor indie food field. Ever since,-a bold-spirited management ha* used this same principle of functioned dn/erttfUniicn to acquire other properties. Because resemcb has always been its guiding star, this unique Glidden team of industries has grown mpidly and soundly through wan and depressions. Glidden*! 26 research laboratories have many trailblaxing achievements to their credit... their most recent cootfftmtkm being in soybean research, and the new field of hormones. The significance to you of Glidden'* functional diversification and pioneering mrsrrh is die pneemokmg gmotky of any product made by Glidden. You can depend pa it.
