The lower the grade of beef greater the percentage of gross profit In Boston, for Hlustration, the rate of gross profit is nearly twice as much for beef costing 5 cents at wholesale as for beef costing 11 and 11% cents Low. priced beef is marked up nearly twice as much relatively as high. priced beef. In other words, perhaps it Is a safe inference that the poor people pay nearly twice as much profit as the well-to-do people pay. The as- cending prices of meat suggest in quiry as to whether the price of the farmer's beef cattle and hogs have In- ereastd at the farm In the same de- gree that meat has te the consumer The department Investigators found that the farmer had failed to receive & share equally with the packer, whole. saler and retailer, but as to hogs the case is different, the farmer receiving nearly his fair share of the higher prices of pork In the increased price of his unfed hogs.
