The survey shows that beef and pork av erage 79 per cent of the meat eaten. Veal, lamb, the variety meats, frankfurters and other luncheon meats make up the remaining 21 per cent.

Friday, Ocr. 23, 195 9 5 Wall Street Chatter New York -4UPD- Most steel users were fairly comforta ble for steel in the third Quar ter, but they will be anything but comfortable in the fourth quarter, says W. E. Hutton & Co. "Evidence continues to ac cumulate that the steel strike has done a lot of earnings damage," the firm points out. Hutton says this shows up in the third quarter profits of the steel companies them selves, and it will show up even more in the earnings of companies dependent on steel supplies in the fourth quar ter. Reynolds & Co. says Gen eral Tire & Rubber is an im portant factor in the rubber industry, rockets and pro pellants and plastics, and is headed for one of the best years in its corporate history. Time Magazine reports Car rier Corp. is testing a new method of desalting water by freezing and trapping salt crystals between fresh water ice crystals. Spear & Staff recommends International Nickel as a hold-and-buy stock on weak ness for long pull capital gains. It estimates Inco's 1959 earnings at $4.75 a share, up from $2.71 a share last year. Abraham & Co. says Mc Kesson & Robbins is a domi nant' factor in the wholesale distribution of drugs, drug store items, and liquor. Its shares at current levels ap pear attractive for the longer term appreciation potential, and its dividend return emi nently secure, albeit modest. In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS From Washington: The U.S. Department of Agriculture officially declar es that seven crops - cotton, rip, neanuts. tobacco, corn. rye and TUNG NUTS - are in surplus. That is to say: wp'n nroducini? more of these crops than we can con sume, sell abroad or give hut we eo on subsidiz ing still further over-produc tion of tnem. IT DOESN'T make sense? Of course not. But so many of the things we do in these modern days don t maKe sense. MORE from Washington: Dr. H. G. Johnston, of the National Cotton Council, reports that cotton farmers are faced with THREE TIMES AS MANY BOLL WEEVILS as they were 12 years ago - which, incidentally, is about the time when the cotton sub sidy got started. ' HOW come? You've heard, perhaps, of the "balance of nature" -which means, in substance, that when there are too many rabbits coyotes tend to IN CREASE in number and the increased numbers of coyotes eat up the damaging surplus of rabbits, thus preserving tne balance and keeping every thing hunky-dory. Maybe it works the same way with boll weevils. IITHAT about tung nuts? " I'll lay a small wager that you didnt' know you were being taxed to pay a subsidy to encourage heavier production of them. BY the way -What are 'tung nuts? Tung oil is the most power ful drying agent known. The oil is obtained from the nuts of the tung tree, which origi nally grew only in the Orient, especially in China. We used to buy our tung nuts from China, and with the money obtained from the sale of them the - Chinese bought American gadgets, thus main taining a balance of trade. But, in the course of time, the Chinese weren't able to supply all the tung nuts ne cessary to provide the tung oil we needed in the produc tion of printing ink, water proof fabrics and paper, and high grade varnishes, 'i lac quers and enamels. So we started paying a bounty for production of them in the U.S. : rNG nuts are now grown on millions of tung trees in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. Although we grow more of them than we need and have to stash away the surplus in warehouses, we go on paying the bounty on them because if we cut it out a ter rific howl would go up from these states and a lot of votes would be lost. Such is our modern system. 1 ri7 STOTOl HKc HEAT 3 FIXED HEATS $2.79 ELECTRIC BLANKETS By NORTHERN ELECTRIC Full Double Bed Size Choice of Xolors Two Year Guarantee 1 SINGLE CONTROL CIK OR DUAL TWIN BED SIZE new TOfftTMfKTER AUTOMATIC HEATER wM MuiagSfMnii-GIt Hurting Unit Perfect solution for hard-to-het rooms saves fuel bills, too!
