I MEDFORDifTRIBUNE i Decreased Supplies of Food Predicted by U.S. Department By GAYLORD P. GOODWIN United Press Correspondent Washington, D.C. U.R) The Agriculture Department reports food supplies next year will be a "little lower" than in 1956, and at retail prices higher in the first four to five months of 1957 than in January-April of this year. Consumer demand is expected to continue strong through 1957. , There will be plenty of meat available in 1957 despite a slight drop in supply.

Where You Park At the Door yearat 63 pounds per person, com pared with 66 pounds for 1956. Beef consumption will be 80 pounds per person, compared with 83.5 pounds this year, veal consumption will drop to nine pounds per person compared with 9.3 pounds this year, and lamb and mutton consumption will remain stable at 4.5 pounds per person. Milk production will be up about 2 billion pounds to a total of about 130 billion pounds next year. Prices of dairy products are expected to remain at present levels, although this situation may change when price supports are announced for the marketing year beginning next April. There will be more eggs, broil ers, and turkeys than ever be fore, the department said. Prices for eggs and turkeys will average a little lowers while prices of broilers will be slightly higher. More Choosy The department said declines in consumption rates from last fall and-winter are indicated for lard, sweet potatoes, dry beans, apples, and grapes. Increases are in prospect for eggs, chicken, tur key, processed fishery products, fresh citrus fruits, frozen orange juice, fresh and processed vege tables, and potatoes. Some small shifts in the pat tern of food consumption are in dicated, the department said. Civilians probably will consume a little larger quantity per per son of chicken meat, fresh oranges and tangerines, frozen concentrated orange juice, and processed vegetables in 1957 than this year. Small reductions are likely for meat, but neverthe less the annual consumption rate next year is expected to average higher than in any year from 1909, to 1954. People are more choosy than ever before about the food they eat. Their incomes have been rising since World War II and they can afford to be more selec tive. Consumers have been able and willing to pay for many ad ditional services such as partial preparation of foods outside the home, special handling, and pre packaging to maintain food qual ity and make it more attractive. The department said' this changing market demand has done, much to encourage new marketing practices which, in turn, have had an effect on con sumer buying practices. 1 Irena Hawthorne, . premiere danseuse of the Metropolitan Opera company will appear in a program Thursday, January 10, under the sponsorship of Jackson County Civic Music as sociation.
