A spirit of cooperation and

The purpose is to shift some
lands away from crop uses

these uses are camping grounds,
swimming facilities, riding sta

25% of Food
Dollar Spent
For Meat

The nations meat industry
is the largest food business in
the world, says Katie Thomas,
county extension agent, home
economics.
Americans spent $l6 billion
for beef, pork, veal. and lamb
In 1861. That's about one-fourth
of all money spent for food dur
ing the year, and averages "a
bout $277 for each family.
Despite rising costs, meat
is still a good buy, she points
out. In the early le20's the
annual meat bill amounted to
about $34 for each person and
bought l34 pounds of meat.
BY 1861. the meat bill, at a.
bout $40 per each person. was
almost three times as high,
and bought l6l pounds of meat.
Even more important to the
family budget is that only As
per cent of the take-home pay
was needed to buy meat In
1861. Forty years ago the meat
bill required 81 percent of the
take-home pay.
The percentage of income
spent on meat declined be-
cause incomes are higher than
they were four decades ago.
Also, today's farmer. can raise
more hogs, beef cattle. and
sheep with Considerably less
time and labor. Better farm
management, greater use of
machinery. and improved foods
help the farmer to produce
more meat for consumers at
a reasonable price.
