Butter Prices Drop,
But Others Remain
Firm or Go Higher
General Breed Increase
Indicated; Some Meat
Reduced Slightly

Butter prices in Washington
area markets are lower for the
second straight week end, re-
flecting refusal of housewives to
pay the higher prices. But other
foods continue high with no in
dication of any general decline
in sight. .
Chain stores here are selling but
ter from IS to 81 cents a pound for
quarter-pound prints, 2-cent drop
from last week. Solid pounds are
selling around 90 cents. Large grade
A eggs generally remain around 70
cents, their price last week end.
One butter wholesaler, Henry
Males, said butter sales are OF from
80 to IS per cent in the last month
due to consumer resistance to the
higher prices. A good part Of the
decline represents a switch to lower
priced margarine, he said.
Higher Bread Price Seen,
A general increase in the price OF
bread was indicated and further
raises in some meat prices seemed
certain.
Some stores are advertising "re-
duced" meat prices on some items
but prospects for any genuine de-
cline are slim. The Agriculture
Department said there may be some
moderate drops in pork prices this
fall, but it will be only temporary
if it comes at all. Little If any
decline is forseen in prices of better
grades of beef.
The departments Bureau of Ag-
ricultural Economics indicated that
consumers were moving into a
rather lengthy period of low meat
supplies-regardless of the outcome
of the program for food conserva-
ton.
A report made these points:
Total meat output for the last
three months of this year will be
moderately less than a year earlier
and the smallest since 1912.
Small 1S4S Slaughter Likely.
Because of reduced feed supplies
and the smaller number of cattle or
feed for market, there will be rela.
lively small number of fattened cat
tie slaughtered during 1948. The de.
crease in marketings will be most
pronounced during the summer anc
early fall of next year.
Pork output for all of this yeal
probably will be the lowest since
1941. Average slaughter weights o1
hogs will be lighter in the next Il
months than in the past year.
Next years lamb crop promises
to be even smaller than this years
q, 400, 900 head, the smallest in q
years.
The department report held littl'
hope for any important price de.
cline in meats, commenting tina
people want to buy more meat ant
will spend more for meat as theiI
incomes increase"
Continuing their steady climl

While Flanders left for Chicago,

came when seven housewives

So a week. ''Now he makes $50,
but it is not enough to feed three
