Price of Powder Advances
Tremendous Profits of Dupont Powder Company

Consumers of blasting powder II
this district have become accustomed
to receive at intervals of few week,
a notice in the following form from
the Wallace sPowder company, ~ sub.
sidiary of the Occur 6'Alene Hardware
& Foundry company:
Gentlemen: Increasing cost of raw
materials necessitates the manufact.
urers of high explosives to further ad.
vance their prices on powder for min.
ing purposes, and we are therefore
obliged to adopt the following schedule
on Dupont and Giant gelatin. from oul
Wallace magazines, effective March
1916:
40 per cent gelatin, rs pound and
so pound boxes, ton lots, 1928; less than
ton lots, $24.
80 per cent gelatin, so pound boxes
ton lots, $31; less than ton lots, $32
"2O per cent stumping powder, SO
pound boxes only, ton lots, $1450; less
than ton lots, $15."
dupont Annual Report.
Assuming that the local company
makes these periodical advances fol-
lowing a similar advance from the
manufacturers, and that it is receiv-
ing no more than a fair and customary
profit, it is interesting to turn to the
manufacturers of high explosives and

keep their heads above water on ac-
count of increasing cost of raw ma
terial." Here is an extract of the
annual report of the Dupont Powder
company for the year 1915, as publish
ed in the New York Sun of February
20:
Profits Increase $52,000,000.
A sheer jump of s52,2s7, sos in net
earnings over 1914, with an increase of
56,S6S employees and the acquisition of
many new plants and many new facil-
tiles, are facts which stand forth in
the annual report of e. l. du Pont de
Nemours & Co., made public yester-
day.
Where in 1914 the net earnings were
only $5,6O3, 1853, they reached the total
of $57,S4075S in the fiscal year just
ended, 1000 per cent increase, and of
this amount, after deducting $2,298,482
for fixed charges, there is a balance
today of $55,542,275 available for dis
tribution as a dividend to the common
if the company cares to
do it. According to Wall street yes
-erday that would be a melon of 943
per cent ON the common stock, about
the biggest thing they have ever
known for distribution out of the earn
ngs of company.
1t was point out in the report yester-
lay that such earnings could not be
in ordinary times. President
Pierre S. du Pont, in his statement to
the stockholders, said:

As the matter now stands, with as

mean the expenditure Of approximate

It is to be hoped that the committee
