The list shows price ranges on nine general classified groups with a spread of $13.85 per cwt the lowest at $6.50, and the highest at $20.35. Why this variation in price? Because the meat from different animals varies greatly in quality and weight. . Although the quotations shown are in nine divisions, Swift & Company grades cattle into 34 general classes, and each class into a variety of weights and qualities. As a result of these differences in cattle prices, (due to differences in weights and meat qualities), there is a range of 15 cents in Swift & Company's selling prices of beef . carcasses. These facts explain : 1 Why retail prices vary in different stores. 2 Why it would be difficult to regulate prices of cattle or beef. 3 Why it requires experts to judge cattle and to sell meat, so as to yield the pro fit of only a fraction of a cent a pound a profit too small to affect prices.
