They were given to HAPPY BIRTHDAY May 28 Myrtle Dygart Ben Kalin Cliff Bragg Buying a side of beef for the freezer can be a highly satisfying investment if you know what you're paying for and like cuts of meat that you get. However, many shoppers buy a side of beef, a whole hog or lamb and arc disappointed be cause they do not understand the "hidden costs" of the pur chase. Some families may be better off to buy selected wholesale cuts such as beef chuck, loin or rib. pork or lamb loin, or buy favorite cuts of weekend "specials." Your family's meat needs will vi.ry from your neighbor's but here arc a few guides on meat buying provided by food market ing specialists, Oregon State Col lege. Meats are in-season certain times of the year. For instance. grass fed beef, pork and lamb arc in-season in the tall. Grain-fed or higher grades of beef are usu ally in season in the spring, pork and lamb in the winter. Beef hindquartcr cuts are usually low in. price in the winter and beef forcquarter cuts arc low priced in the summer. County extension agents, your local meat markets and locker operators can help you decide on best times for meat purchases. Learn the meaning of the grade stamp. If meat has been graded by USDA, the grade will appear in a shield shaped purple stamp on the full length of the carcass of beef or lamb. Pork is not graded. Packers' grades mean something to the packer. "Lock er" beef doesn't mean anything to the consumer as far as the quality goes. If you plan to buy a whole, half or quarter carcass, figure the cost per pound on the net weight or weight after waste is removed It you buy a fourth or half beef carcass, figure a yield of about 80 per cent in retail cuts. Fats, and bones account for most of the waste. As more boning and trim ming is done, more compact convenient cuts are available to - MAY 30TH IS - The annual activity banquet was icld at the North Powder gym.
