Slightly Higher Food Prices Forecast for 1958 in Oregon Corvallis If you consider yourself an average Oregon ian, you can expect to pay at least as much or more of your paycheck for food this year as you did in 1957. High levels of income and employment are expected to cause a continued strong de mand for food products in 1953, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture report relayed to local resi dents by the county exten sion office and Oregon State college. Here's how extension home economists forecast the 1958 food situation on meat, poul try and eggs, dairy products and fruits and vegetables. Meat: As a consumer, you may eat less meat than you did last year, but menus will contain more meat than they did between 1900 and 1955. Pork is likely to be more plentiful, and more attractive pricewise after mid-1953. Lamb supplies will be about the same, but there's likely to be less beef and veal. Poultry and eggs: More chicken and turkey meat but fewer eggs are in prospect this year than last. Increase in chicken meat is expected to come largely from commer cial broilers. Because there are fewer ln-ni-P 4lite Tnnnrtr 1 4 h n n n Iici j ci j iiiJ.o j auuai j a. mou a year ago, egg production on a nation-wide basis will prob ably be below last year's, at least until mid or late sum mer. Retail poultry meat pric es may average close to 1957 levels while egg prices will probably be higher. Dairy products: Total stock of dairy products are much higher this January 1 than last. Milk supplies are expect ed to increase above last year. Prices may decline on dairy products. Fruits and vegetables: Sup plies of fruits and vegetables will continue large this spring, but supplies will not quite compare with the heavy volume available in the same months of 1957. Some excep tions to this are large sup plies of frozen peas and corn and somewhat shorter sup plies of frozen orange juice. Apple and pear crops were considerably larger this past year, but December freezes in Florida are reported to have dimmed hopes for fresh cit rus. If there are no more bad freezes, harvest of winter veg etables promises to be much larger this year. Winter cab bage, celery and lettuce ought to show greatest increases.

Though rela tively little corn is eaten by people, vast quantities of it are fed to animals to produce eggs, milk, meat and other animal products for man. Vitamin Intake, Mortality Rate May Be Related Washington Preliminary reports have been made on a five-year study of the health and nutrition of 577 men and women over 50 years of age in California, according to Nu trition Reviews. One of the more interesting facts brought out in the report is that there may be a lower mortality rate among those who, on first examination, re ported high intakes of vita min A, niacin and ascorbic acid. Those who were getting less than 5000 International Units of Vitamin A a day, the recommended allowance for an adult, had more nervous, circulatory and respiratory diseases than those with a con siderably higher intake. Most vitamin A in the diet and almost all of the ascorbic acid comes from fruits and vegetables. The study was made on 280 man and 297 women. Ages ranged from 50 to 89.
