dainks-thc-prico-sproad-ib- m justified much of this misunderstanding arises perhaps because the consum er does not always appreciate what happens in between officials in the department of agricultures marketing service at ottawa point out that when each step is studied in detail there might be n better understanding of the problems confronting the producer packer and various distributors concerned in bringing beef to the consumers table what is the story s for example behind a choice twoyearold 1000 pound steer thot farmer john doe sells to the packer for approximate ly so cents a pound during the steers short life he would normal ly have spent about a year and a quarter feeding on pasture con sumed one ton of hay four tons of silage and about 600 pounds or more of grain depending on the finishing method adopted by trie producer who collects about 300 for a thousand pound animal when the packer finishes his part of the business cycle however he finds that ho has only about 000 pounds there may be considerable variation in this figure of beef to sell the retailer 40 per cent of the live weight of the steer being auction sale of holhehold fuknituke the ontario

the farmer the packer must rajy on the value of such byproducts as hides fat casings sausage covers animal feeds and feriilixcrs which go to make up the 40 per cent re duction from live weight to carcass weight to offset dressing handling and selling expenses and allow him some profit on the business trans action t to the aetlvltiesofthe retailer we find that when he converts the 600 pounds of beef he bought into retail cuts this in turn suffers a considerable shrinkage and the retailer mdy end- up with only about 340 pounds of saleable beef recent research findings on the chicago market show that even the choiceststeer will yield about 40 pounds of porterhouse steak which the retailer can sell at n top price of about 00 cents a pound compared with about 160 pounds of hamburger and stew beef retailing at a much lower price other of the more expensive cuts include sirloin and round steak totalling about 130 pounds rib and i rump roasts 70 pounds chuck or cheaper meat about 100 pounds and about 40 pounqs of fat bringing the total quantity up to about 540 pounds of beef that the retailer sells at varyinr prices o the con sumer on most canadian markets and will undoubtedly
