A partial explanation Of why beef is
so high Is that when a young or thin
steer is fed for beef 1t costs more per
pound to fatten the steer thar the prize
for which the flesh thus added viii

must be sold for enough more to make
up the loss caused by %sqttening il. This

on the market because Of the improve
