South St. Paul once was home to the largest stockyards in the world. Alpheus B. Stickney, a prominent railroad businessman, had the vision of a potential stockyard, and in 1886, he organized the St. Paul Union Stockyards in St. Paul. Eventually, the stockyards moved to South St. Paul, which was founded in 1887. The St. Paul Union Stockyards Company was a Minnesota corporation that was formed in 1886, owned more than 240 acres of land South of St. Paul, one half of which had stockyards, packing plants, its own sewer system, and 15 miles of rail line, located on a Chicago & Great Western RailRoad line and on a Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific RailRoad line. In 1907, the St. Paul Union Stockyards Company had a facility capable of processing 12,000 hogs, 15,000 head of cattle, and 35,000 sheep and had facilities for the feeding of 110,000 sheep. The St. Paul Union Stockyards Company had a four story brick and stone office building for its offices, the Stock Yards National Bank, various livestock commission firms, the Cattle Loan Company, and a joint railroad agency in 1907. In 1907, the St. Paul Union Stockyards Company had $2 million in issued stock and had $2.1 million in funded debt. The officers of the St. Paul Union Stockyards Company in 1907 included Louis F. Swift, chairman, A. A. McKechnie, secretary-treasurer, H. B. Carroll, acting manager, and J. S. Bangs, L. A. Carton, K. D. Dunlop, A. B. Stickney, Louis F. Swift, and R. C. Wight, members of the board of directors. Almost every family in the city of South St. Paul had a connection to the livestock operation along the Mississippi River. The stockyards eventually attracted four major meatpacking plants, including Swift & Company in 1897 and Armour & Company in 1919. Meatpacking and its related businesses became the heart of South St. Paul's economy. World War II brought peak years to the meatpacking industry when the plants had government contracts to supply military needs worldwide. In their heyday, the big meatpackers and others employed thousands of immigrants, mainly Eastern Europeans. In the late 1960's and 1970's, the meatpacking market decentralized and the sprawling meatpacking plants became obsolete. Swift's meatpacking plant closed its doors in 1969, while Armour remained open until 1979. In 1990, the Armour plant was demolished and was replaced with an industrial park. The Central Livestock Association, successor to the St. Paul Union Stockyards Company, is expected to end local operations in 2008. The Blue Cross & Blue Shield non-profit health care movement began in Minnesota and the South St. Paul Stockyards. In 1932, the Hospital Service Association of St. Paul was formed for the purpose of operating a nonprofit prepaid hospitalization plan. The association, operated by Dr. Peter Ward, Dr. Arthur Calvin, and its first manager, E. A. van Steewyk, began with a capital investment of $857, and a basic annual premium of $9.00. Contract 1, Group 1, was taken out in July 1933 by the employees of the St. Paul Union Stockyards. In 1934, van Steewyk chose a "blue Greek or Geneva cross, a symbol of relief for those struck by disaster" as the association's logo. In 1939, it became the national symbol of pre-paid hospitalization plans. The Minnesota setup became a national model. Van Steewyk left for Philadelphia in 1939, replaced by Dr. Calvin. In 1940 the number of participating hospitals reached 75, the number of subscribers, over 380,000. Growth continued through World War II and after.

Mennonite Voluntary Service started in 1944 and is the oldest continuing voluntary service program in Mennonite circles. Mennonite Voluntary Service reached its height during the U.S. military draft of the 1950's and 1960's because of the increased demand for alternative service. Today, Mennonite Voluntary Service provides placement for men and women, recent college graduates and retired couples, as well as some families. Mennonites are a Christian faith group that began in the 16th century as an outgrowth of the Anabaptist movement in Europe. They were called "Anabaptists" or "re-baptizers" because they insisted that water baptism should be reserved for adults only. In 1536, Menno Simons (1496- ,) a Catholic priest, joined the Anabaptists, whose network was growing in spite of intense persecution of the members and martyrdom for its leaders. From his studies of the Scriptures, Menno Simons began to write and teach about community, mutual aid, sharing of resources, support to widows, their children and the poor, sister/brotherhood among believers, simple life-style, nonresistance, nonviolence, peacemaking, and servanthood, the values of Mennonites. The denominational name "Mennonite" was first used as a nickname, but through the centuries it has become an accepted label. There are about 60 separate organized groups that derived from Anabaptism, including Mennonite Brethren (168 congregations,) Brethren in Christ Churches – 196 congregations,) Old Order Amish (1,159 Districts,) Old Order Mennonites, including Groffdale Conference, Weaverland, Stauffer, Wisler subgroups (124 congregations,), Church of God in Christ Mennonite, sometimes called Holdeman (111 congregations,) Conservative Mennonite (97 congregations,) Beachy Amish (103 congregations,) Evangelical Mennonite Church (31 congregations,) New Order Amish (60 congregations,) Mennonite Fellowship Churches (47 congregations,) Amish Mennonite (13 congregations,) Mennonite Christian Fellowship (23 congregations,) Evangelical Mennonite Brethren (4 congregations,) Old Colony Mennonite (1 congregation,) Old Order River Brethren (5 congregations,) Reformed Mennonite (9 congregations,) Reinlander Mennonite (2 congregations,) the Hutterites, including the Schmiedeleut (the Hutterian Brethren and the Committee Hutterites,) the Lehrerleut, and the Dariusleut (458 colonies,) and the Church of the Brethren (in excess of 1,000 congregations.) The Amish, or Old Order Mennonites, split in 1693, when Jacob Ammann, a Swiss Anabaptist leader, felt that Mennonite church leaders were not holding to strict separation from the world and that spiritual renewal was needed. Ammann did not believe that the Mennonite penalty of shunning was being properly practiced and separated from the Anabaptists over this issue, over differences related to the celebration of Communion, and over the practice of the washing of feet. His followers were nicknamed "Amish." Amish faith and life is governed by a largely unwritten set of rules known as the "Ordnung" (i.e. order.) The 1887 city directory indicates that Mr. and Mrs. J.
