Beef Prices and Cattle Supply Under a New Tariff Era
Fred C Croxton, a Labor Department attache in Washington, released findings from a lengthy beef price investigation. He notes prices rose with prosperity and tariff protection, while cattle production lagged behind population and foreign demand. Exports rose nearly 20 percent, fresh beef up 474 percent, but cured beef fell. He cites a prior low-price period that discouraged cattle raising and a gradual post-1889 price rise, with population growth outpacing cattle numbers.

Beefs Prices and Pasture Losses Prompt Farm Policy Alarm
The article argues that cattle fattening costs rise with corn, profits for farmers are slim, and futures depend on pasture preservation. It cites Chicago cattle prices at $6.12 per hundred, compares to $5.03 in prior years, and notes a 1200 pound steer yields only modest gains after fattening costs. It warns overstocking harms ranges and urges immediate steps to protect pastures to avoid further price hikes.
