Food Profits 46O Per Cent
Jersey Retailers Exact Far
More than Wholesalers

Trenton, N. j., July 23.--Produce
prices obtained by the State Depart
ment of Agriculture and made public
to-day by Governor Edge show moder-
ate profits on the part of wholesalers
and vastly greater profits on the part
Of retailers.
In no commodity does the average
profit of the wholesaler exceed 90 per
cent. The highest was so per cent, and
it was found in dealing in carrots and
many other vegetables many whole
salers we're selling at farmers prices
or below them.
Retailers in certain communities and
on certain commodities were found to
be exacting 460 per cent profit, and a
profit of $50 per cent was common.

HEMP INDUSTRY TO BE REVIVED

east, where it was made into yarn, which was pronounced to be of fine quality
 ''One thing in favor of the hemp in- dustry in Yuma and the Imperial Val ley is that the crop comes ahead of the frost, which means that it will not be discOlored.
 "A decorticating machine has been invented by George w. Sehlicten which is said to be success; it has already been tried on both hemp and cotton stalks If this machine in prac- tice runs true to the experiments that have been conducted, it will be boon to both the hemp industry and utiliz- ing the cotton stalks because the fibre from both can be separated much more economically than by hand and it would not be surprising if the hemp planting next year in the Imperial Valley amounted to 10000 acres"
 The lower Yuma Valley is admirab- ly adapted to hemp culture and Yu- ma can well afford to encourage revival of crop which has been neg lected of recent years for cotton and alfalfa.

MIDYEAR STATEMENT OF ARIZONA MINERAL
 OUTPUT

All the mines and smelters had been producing at capa city with very little interruption other than of the labor strike in the Jerome camp up the end of June, 1917 If later trouble does not prevent the copper output in 1917 according to C. Hikes ofthe United States geological survey department of the interior will be greater than that of 1o16 when the output was approximately 700,O00O00 pounds In fact many of the large copper properties in cudng the United Verde Ray United Verde Extension and Ray have materially increased their monthly shipments of copper bullion The New Corneia teaching plant began producing eectoc copper and the International smeter at Miama, increased the capacity of the plant.
 An increase expected in the gold production, due tivties the San Francisco Oatman district where new mill operated from the United Eastern mne but the production of silver which influenced by the out put of copper will not show any great increase In 1916 the gold output was nearly 100000 and that of silver nearly 100000 ounces
 Owing the high price of lead several old properties are being opened One of these is the Mowry in Santa Cruz county and number of the mines in the vicinity of Chloride in Mohaye county reported to be producing large the production of lead expected from the Bisbee camp which yielding both lead and zincead ores as we'll as considerable manganese Arizona pro- duced about 26 100000 pounds of lead in 1916
 Zinc is produced in several other districts in Arizona especially Waapai district Mohave county where mpor shipments steadily increasing the output Arizona mines produced about 2OOOOOo pounds of reconyerabe zinc in 1916 With greater shipments from the Union Bas in and Tennessee mne in Mohave county and other prop critics Pima Santa Cruz and Cochse counties this out put may be exceeded in 97 though the price of zinc has declined The value of Arzonas output of metals in 1916 than s2Oo0OOOoO With the prices of silver cop per and lead higher and with increased copper output this total value will be considerably exceeded
Arizona sentinel., 1917-08-16

All that can be said in favor of hemp as a crop for the Southwest applies with equal force to Yuma Valley.
 Southern Pacific officials predict that 10000 acres in the Imperial Val ley will be planted to hemp next year, ushering in 8 brand new industry there. Hemp has been grown in the lower Yuma Valley in a small way.
 E. w. Clapp, general freight agent at Los Angeles for the Southern Pa cific has just made report to the general offices at San Francisco on the latest baby industry of Southern California. He says:
 Hemp is being cultivated on the Timkin ranch at Brawley, where 100 acres have been planted, and on the Cudahy ranch south of the bounary line, where another 100 acres have been planted.
 This is the first years planting and it is a little early yet to determine the production per acre and the qual- ity of the hemp itself, because harvest ing has just commenced, but there is every indication that the produc- tion per acre will be heavy and that the hemp is of Al quality. It is said to surpass any hemp grown in Ken lucky; it reaches higher stand-ap- proximately II feet while in Kentucky the average growth is about 6 feet.

 The draft examining board finished its work Tuesday and adjourned until Monday, when a new batch of regis trants will be examined. Yuma county is making showing equal to other communities and better, and will have every reason to be proud of the final result. Thereare, however, some in- teresting side lights, which goes to show the trend of human nature. One young man announced that he wanted to file claim for exemption on the grounds that he was the sole support of his aged mother, while it is we'll known that the father is wealthy land owner in Southern California In spite of all this, the young man per sisted in filing claim, and received his affidayits. He said he was famil- jar with the; way the government did things, and didn't fear any conse- .quences.
 One man has been before the board at least six times, each visit presag- ing a new course of action on his part to secure exemption. He had a wife. He had an affidavit stating when he was born He didn't think he was puyStCdlly 1It, dItuO tOuA uOStOHo new passed him. Finally he said he would file another affidavit, showing he was a farmer, This person, the board thinks, has an idea that he can be ex- empted on one ground, if not on an- other.
