Supply and Demand Fixes Prices

Those who still wondering why meat costs what it
does find to their question in recent state
ment from the Department of Agriculture said Mea
prices directly related to the level of in
comes and the high prices paid for meat now compared
with prewar reflect the great increase in consumer in
resulting from the higher 1eve of wages and sal
aries paid and the marked increase in employment"
It would be oversimplificaton to that this the
sole for high prices for meat anything esethe
causes of initiation many and complex But it is OBJ
vousy of the big factors and the statistics which back
lit up impressive indeed Before the war; 45 00O 900
people gainfully employed in this country Now
have 100000 workers. which that practically
everyone who wants job has The increase in
spendable income is remarkable In the
era the personal incomes of the American people, after
taxs to about 1000, 100000 year. This figure
has than doubled, and reached the $187,OOO
600, 900 level
is true that meat production greater than was
before the But it is not yet sufficient to bring back
balance between supply and the money which goes to
ke after the meat The price of meat is purely supply
and demand matter and is actually established by the
consumer himself AS the American Meat Institute says
SIN buying livestock the meat packer has to compete with
many other meat packers He must pay market prices
otherwise he would not have livestock to keep his person
mel employed and his plant operating And those market
prices always the result of nexorabe economic laws

State Traffic Count Shows u. S. Highway
sc Continues To Be Busiest Arizona Road

Tourist traffic entering the State
of Arizona during the month of
August, 1948 showed an increase
over the preceding month, but was
slightly lower than August, 1947.
During August, 1948, Arizona Ag-
ricultural Inspection Stations in
Spected 128,761 automobiles and T.
$50 commercial trucks. Inspectors
found that one out of every 20 au-
tomobileS which entered Arizona
carried raw agricultural products
infested with insect pests or dis
eases.
Commercial truck traffic contin-
ued its steady month -to-month in
crease. In August, 1948, 1880 COM
mercial trucks entered the State,
an increase of almost 1000 over the
July figure. Forty-seven trucks
were inspected at the line, 8O3
trucks were allowed to proceed
through the state under quaran-
tine or to an interior point for in
Spection. The manifest on 1850
trucks were checked and found to
contain no raw agricultural prod
uctS.
Highway sc continued to carry
the heavy cross-state traffic, how
ever the direction of the heavy
traffic changed during August. All
stations inspecting west bound traf-
fic decreased while all stations in

NEW YORK.. N. Y.-A little
louse by the name OF. Haemato-
pinus eurysternus, alias the short
nosed OK louise, is being evicted
from his home on the range. He
has been having a time of it for
too many years, causing weight
losses to range cattle running into
hundreds of millions of pounds
every year, but now way has
been found to beat the little devil,
and economically, too.
Practical large-scale tests in the
Rocky Mountain and Great Plains
areas during the 1947-48 winter
season demonstrated the effec-
tiveness of a new insecticide ma
terial, Pyrenone, against the short
nosed OK louise, as well as the
long nosed louise and several va
rieties of red biting lice. They
showed that a single, zone shot" !"
treatment was enough to lick the
lice, bringing seasonal control,
and weight gains running over 70
pounds per animal.
The Investigations were made
on over 5000 beef cattle in seven
states Of the areas mentioned.
The new-type insecticides, devel-
oped by US Industrial Chemi-
Gals, Inc, combine pyrethrins with
piperonyl butoxide, a new chemi
cal. They were used as dips,
sprays or dusts, with equally
satisfactory results.
The material was shown to have
Arizona sun., 1948-10-15

keyed up for the game after a
weeks layoff while the Devils are
expected to be suffering reaction
from last weeks 22-17 setback at
the hands of Utah State.
The Devils met their first defeat
of the year Friday night at Logan,
Utah, when a heavier home team
exploited superior reserve strength
to come from behind and snatch
the win.
The setback left Doherty with
the questionable consolation that
he was right in predicting the re-
suit. The coach has been pleading
with people to believe him when
he says the Devils are weak in re-
serve strength.
But after two surprisingly easy
victories, few people paid him
much heed. AT Logan, the Tempe
men just didn't have the staying
power necessary.
Arizona sun., 1948-10-15

two distinct advantages in the
control of cattle lice over those
materials now used on beef cattle.
One of these is its known safety.
Combinations of piperonyl butox-
Side with pyrethrins have been
conclusively demonstrated az
completely free from toxicologi-
cal and contamination hazards,
and represent no Objectionable
feature to the animal, operator or
consumer of meat, dairy or pou1-
try products. The second advan-
tage is its lasting effectiveness.
Forty-seven herds were treated,
with check herds being used when
practical to determine effective
ness and weight gains resulting
from the applications on treated
herds against untreated herds un-
der similar conditions. In one test
in New Mexico, lot of Hereford
range COWS weighed an average OF
8631a pounds before power spray
ing with the insecticide. Sixty-one
days later the treated animals av-
eraged 947 pounds, gain of 1914
per animal, while the gain of a
nparable untreated check herd
had been only 10k pounds.
Compilation of the data gath
I'd in the various tests enabled
II. S. Industrial Chemicals to de-
.lop effective combinations of
the insecticide which are being
made available through manufac-
turers of finished insecticides.

A Personal Problem Answered
Children's Allowance

"a Oa1 8A
senior in high school this coming year and
I'd like to give her a Iorge enough al
Iowonce for her to pay for everything ex-
cept her meals and music lessons. as |
believe she needs more understanding of
the volue of money before she starts
college.
l want her to have enough thot she con
dress as well as the average girl and
ave as much TO spend as is good for
her, but I don't wont her to hove so
much thot she doesn't have TO do some
planning to come out even. | would like
TO know whot q fdir allowance would be.
A Mother.
I am very much interested in your
letter regarding an allowance for
your 16-year-old daughter who will
be a senior in high school.
l personally feel that an allow
ance is the only way to teach a
young person to handle money. 1t
should be in accordance with the
family income and allow for the
standard of clothing and expendi-
lures you would give the child your
self. Otherwise you will find your
self constantly giving her extras and
the whole point of the training will
be lost.
An allowance should be de-
termined from the income and the
needs, and rather than to say eve
are going to give you S25 a month
for your allowance" let her first
realize what her expenditures will
be-.
List Clothing Needs
Make a list of all the clothing she
will need with an estimate of each
article for the fall and winter. Their
you and she might spend a day IL
the stores comparing values and M
doubt the list will be changed some
what. Maybe she would rather havs
one nice skirt than two shoddy one
as the estimated amount would hav,
allowed. Possibly she will remem
Der that blue skirt of yours which
could be ripped up and made over
Instead of a winter coat with a flu
collar as she had wanted she will
realize that a heavier, better qualit,
tweed will have more style.
After the trip you can go On will
the planning of the budget. Possibl
she does not need a large item lik
a coat or suit and the amount yo-
give her will take care of her i'm
mediate needs and she can put asid
something for the sales that are sur
to be along in December.
AS a senior she will have extr
needs and that should be reckone
with.
A budget I believe should includ
all possible items with the excer
tons which are determined ahead
time. There will be shows, coke
accessories, a trip to another tow
with her friends to the football gam
Church and charities should also /
added because young folks need
realize that these are all legitimat
expenditures. Even gifts for tt
members of her family and friend

Ask Bonus,
Liquor Dealers Say

Several liquor dealers have COM
planned that they are being asked
higher rent and bonuses to obtain
new leases on stores which they
have been occupying for many years.
the Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board reported yesterday, The
board said it is powerlesS to grant
relief to the proprietors unless
their rent is so high that the
landlord in reality becomes a part
ner in the business. Robert Cogs-
we'll, Rent Administrator for this
District, said his Office has no juris-
diction over business properties.
One dealer complained that his
lease will expire next month and
his landlord had refused to renew
it unless the dealer gave him a
$4,000 bonus and an increased rental
of $3.50 month. The dealer quoted
his landlord as saying the amount
of business in the store justified
both the bonus and the rent in
crease.
Another dealer, who said he was
planning to move to shopping
center development, said he was
told that he could not get a lease
unless he agreed to pay S per cent
of his gross profits to the owner.
