BUYING LESS MEAT IN NEW
YORK
New York City is consuming one-
third less meat than it did last Feb-
ruary. Fifteen per cent, of the but-
cher shops of the city have close
within two months. These are the
statements of butchers, wholesale
and retail, in various parts of the
city. One year ago retail dealers
were paying 10 cents a pound for the
whole beef. To -day' they are paying
13, This is the rise in any one year
in the .history of the trade. Men
who Iraye bees in the meat business
forty years in New York City recall
nothing like it. Consumption has
fallen off one-third and butcher shops
are closing all over the city, no'long-
er able to make a living because the.
rise is placing meat beyond the power
of their' customers to buy.
