T E FOR BEEF WASHINGTON, June 10. m Government livestock experts predict ed today that prices for moat grades of slaughter cattle would average higher this summei and rail than In the same period last year. The bureau of agricultural econom ics said this trend waa Indicated by stronger consumer demand for beef, smaller market supplies, and pros pective large grain crops. Many livestock producers were forced by short feed supplies and Mgh cost of feed following last summer's drought to deplete their herds. Tha bureau aald cattle prices had rsen steadily from last fall until April when consumer resistance to h'pher prices for best grades of beef caused some decline In prices.
