BEEF CONSUMPTION AT RECORD LEVELS IN UNITED STATES Per capita consumption of beef in this country has reached re cord levels. A beef promotion campaign, started last August, is now show ing definite effects, according to C. E. Bell, University of Georgia Extension Service livestock spe cialist.

This is the highest figure ever reached for beef alone, and it represents an increase of one-fourth over last year’s per capita consumption. The beef promotion campaign is part of a five-point program designed to help drough-stricken cattlemen and stabilize cattle markets, Bell said. In addition to sales promotion, the program in cludes direct Government beef purchases, emergency feed dis trnbution, special livestock cre dit, and reduced freight ratea on feed, hay, and livestock moved from drought areas.
