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.
Ilnv, Cherries- lilt
HILLSnORO, June 13 AP) A
large amount of cut hay and early
ripening cherries were damaged., by
the heavy rains this week. Berry
growers reported the precipitation
did more cord than harm.
