WHY CHEAP BEEF!
We shall not insult your intelligence by telling you something other than what you
already know. Prices of livestock have steadily declined. Seven weeks ago we were
paying $11.15 per hundred, live weight, to Grande Hondo Valley farmers 'for baby
beef. Tqday we are paying $6.00 per hundred for the same quality. We tiro - not
instrumental in making these conditions, we arc obliged to follow the market. Mar-
gin of profits were less seven weeks ago than today on the prevailing low prices
of meats. Who brought low prices, conditions or individuals? ... .
