 BEEF WEST SAYS SECY.

The placing of 90 cars of govern ment owned frozen beef from St. Joseph and kansis City on the mar kets of the coast will spell a loss to Arizona stoclSmen in the opinion of Ed W. Stephens, secretary of the state livestock sanitary board. Mir. Stephens declares the arrival of 30 cars of beef at coast terminals is the first of several consignmentS to be similarly unloaded.
 At time when good range-fed beef is ready for shipment. says MT. Stephens, the dumping" of the frozen beef on the coast markets will come as a calamity to the stockmen, espec- tally following year in which few realized on their cattle.
 This move on the part of the de- partment of agriculture will so dis courage many stoclSmen of this state that they will go out of business, in Mir. Stephens opinions.
 According to the report by the Sani- tary board secretary, the government has made contracts with packers, ho- tels and meat jobbers on the coast for shipments of frozen beef at price which forces the stockmen to sacrifice, and wipes out the profit he must make to keep his business going.
 The government paid 23 cents pound for the beef during the was
