Change Announced In Grades Of Beef
Homemakers and others who use federal meat grades should look for a change in the beef included in the grades starting this week. Brooks V. Daugherty, Kana wha County agricultural agent, pointed out yesterday. The grade revision renames two grades and adds a new good grade for beef from young animals. Cuts will be small and tenders due to youth, with leaner composition preferred by some consumers. Those who bought good before should seek choice now, as good becomes the new name for the grade. Prime and captive are combined under prime, with commercial beef largely from older cattle.
