Supply and Demand
Control Beet rrices
Housewives should not expect
beef prices to go any lower other
than during periods of seasonal
larpe suddHcs, says Ed Coles,
livestock marketing specialist at
Oregon State college. ;
Coles exolalns beef prices are.
determined by many factors af-;
feetine suddIv and demand. The
supply of beef is determined by;
the rate of slaughter ana uie
number of cattle on farms anu
ranches.
Demand is largely determined
by the amount of money the
housewife has to spend for meat.
Recent low prices on beef, due
to large supplies, occurred during
a time of record high employ
ment and incomes, says the spec
ialist. Forecasters expected a 15 per
cent increase in slaughter over a
vear ago. However, the rate has
been double the expected figure
Cattle numbers have been in
creasing since 1949 and were ex
pected to reach a peak in 1954
or 1955. Due to the large increase
in slaughter now the peak may
be reached sometime this fall
Coles further explains a peak in
cattle numbers means a poten
tial leveling off in supply of beef
other than seasonal fluctuations,
The only other major factor that
could cause lower beef prices
would be a decrease in demand
Unemployment and a decrease
in consumer incomes are factors
that could cause a decrease in
demand.
Beef remains a good buy at
present prices considering high
employment and high incomes
says Coles.

The Commission took time out
at its special meeting to agree
to loin with the city of Salem, on
a 50-50 basis, in the conversion
of the present "corner type" traf
fic signals to the generally used
walk-wait" overhead and stand

$9,200. It denied the request of
Mayor Harford of Arlington for
construction of a new connection
with the new highway US 30 and
main street at its intersection
with First street. The estimated
cost of the change would have
been $18,000.
Before adjourning the special
meeting the Commission set Aug

BREAD PRICES BOOSTED I
The cost of most brands of i
bread went up a cent in Oregon
last week.
Up-state bakers followed Port
land manufacturers who had
previously made the increase of
one cent on one-and-one-half
pound loaves of white or whole
wheat bread or one dozen buns.
Higher production costs caused
the increase, bakery industry
