4 Many persons wonder why they
have to pay 40 or SO cents, or more,
for the beef they buy when live cattle
are only 10 or Is cents a pound.
In the first place, we average
only about 12 pound of meat from
the pound of steer for which we paw
10 or 15cents. Only part Of the other
hall consists Of such by-products as
hides, oleo oil, tallow, etc. - the
remainder is waste And the return
from by-products Just now is very
small. Hides and fats as well as
many other items are down to pre-
war prices.
In the second place, there are
not many pounds Of the kind Of
meat for which you pay 40 or SO cents,
or more, iii the entire animal. Some
times the retailer has 10 sella lot ofthe
meat he buys for aboutwhat he paws
for 1T, because you and your neigh-
bors pass by certain cuts and insist
upon the other choicer cuts such as
steaks, etc.
Necessarily, he must get enough
Tor these choicer cuts to make IN for
wnat ne loses on the less popular
ones, such as soup meat, etc.
The difference between the fina,
retail price of the finished meat
product and the first cost Of the 1;ve
steer is less than it is for most farm
products.
