Last week in Omnhn the average price on the slaughter steer sold was $20.83 If you want to get a pretty accurate idea of what happens bo- twcon the time your beef stcnk or beef roast quits running around on the'hooE and shows up on youi dinner table, do this. Tnkr your pencil with you the next time you go to niaiket, Jol down the going price of various nnd sundry beef cuts in the show case. Start with neck bones or boiling meat and work your way right on up through hamburger, chuck roast and liver to steak. Add them up and average them I don't know what you will come out with, But I ended up with an average price of beef in the counter at something more than twice that which I quoted above on iteei's.
