HERES THE DOPE ON
Here Is what some of the Prognostlcators out of
Washington tell lis about Food Rices Take them
for what they are they are not original with us
Food prices at the grocery store end win con-
tinue about XereL Respite huge crops Oao
reason Is that farm prices are goremment
supported through the long established policyof
goTemment purchasing or government lending to
keep prices at the farm from falling too far bo
low the parity levels
But the main reason Is In higher costs processing
and handling From farm gate to store shelf Is a-
long winding and expensive route Wages freight
cans boxes trucks machinery equipment < all
cost more
Beef will stay high Port about 15 per cent lower
Chickens a mild decline Eggs down a little MXtti
generally steady Butter aboqt the
Margarine and shortening plentiful and cheaper
this sounds good Bread and flours about level
Sngar big crop but price sustained Canned fruits
and vegetables slightly higher
Frozen foods big carry over restraining price beasts
Someup and downs In things but average family
budget about the same a now
