Coca Cola Company Expands

Question: bought Coca Cola at 42
a month ago and am now advised to buy
more at the present price. My adviser
informs me that the stock has earned
or will earn this year about $40 a share
and that the Coca Cola Company is
piled up with orders beyond it's capac-
lty, and that the only reason they are
not earning double the present profit
is limited capacity, but that they have
now under construction three new
plants and contemplate erecting several
more during the coming year. Kindly
advise me through your column wheth-
er ! have been correctly informed
Z. w.
Answer-Coca Cola Company ac-
CURED in September the II. p. Pratt
Laboratory, the largest manufacturer
OF carbonic gas and other chemicals in
the South. For the last fifteen years
TINS company's operations have aver
aged about 100000 a year. The Coca
Cola Company is building plant in
Statesvilc, n. c., which will have a
daily capacity of $4,000 bottles. Total
production is said TO be running at the
rate of 3,100000,000 bottles a year. Uu-
doubtedly prohibition will be of great
hclp to this company.

Answer-All the stocks you mention
arc speculative, but all are good stocks
With ample earning power. On Marine
preferred there is an accumulation of
over so per cent back dividends. but
'he company has made practice of
paying off various amounts from time

stock viii in time be free of accumula-
lions and offering substantial yield.
Great Northern Ore certificates are
we'll secured, and on account of the
great prospective demand for iron ore
should prove TO be a valuable security.
American international Corporation,
upon which 500 in cash has been paid
in on the stock, is well managed

facilities. Southern Pacific. on account

Bakers Figures Contested

"From Secretary Bakers report Of
settlements" Chairman Graham said
"the original answer was erroneous and
the committee instructed ali account
ant to review the figures given by the
Secretary. After an extended investi-
CATION, the accountant reported that
the amounts expended by the War De-
partment, as given by Secretary Baker,
are off balance from $171, 1,582.37 as
minimum to $184,945,938 as max
imum."
Fifty per cent Of "informal con-
tracts" suspended by the armistice
have been adjusted with damages to
the War Department, Representative
Graham continued.
ain investigating the various mat
ters it has not been possible to find
anywhere d complete record of the
transaction. There were private con-
versations by the various and So
called technical experts with mer
chants and business men and with
claimants, as a result or which claims
were allowed and large sums of money

Representative Graham attacked the

At meeting of the state land de-
partment, called by Governor Camp
bell, Ina resolution was adopted in
structing the governor to enter into
a cooperative agreement with the U.
S. Reclamation service whereby the
state of Arizona will furnish funds
UP to the amount of $4,000 dollars
for the purpose of investigating the
feasibility of the San Carlos, San
Francisco and Red Rock projects. This
action has been taken under authori-
ty of SB 80, passed by the legisla-
ture at it's last session which bill ap-
propriated 100000 for surveys and
investigation of irrigation projects.
The bill was introduced by Senator H.
A. Elliot of Greenlee county, and is
generally known os the Elliott bill.
Calling of the meeting by the Cover
nor followed a conference with w. w.
Schleckt, representing the Reclama-
ton service and in charge of investi-
cations for that department along the
ella river. The Red Rock project
would involve a storage dam on the
headwaters of the ella river in New
Mexico and would irrigate a portion
in Greenlee county. The proposed
San Francisco project would involve
a ram in the San Francisco river
which flows into the ella just below
Clifton, and would be for the purpose
of flood control, and furnishing of an
auxiliary supply to the land in Green
lee and Graham counties. The San
Carlos project as has been widely adj
vertised is proposed storage dam on
the ella river in the box canyon below
San Carlos, and would irrigate a
large area of Pinal county.

During the war butter vanished
from the menu, the only obtainable

Large commercial value has been
found in the ocatillo, "coachman's
whip" or condlewood, scientifically
known as fouquieria splendens, a
plant of coIumnar green stalks, with
flaming red flowers found on tens of
thousands of Arizona acres, generally
where foothills break upon the rocky
detrital deposits that lead down to the
plains. The plant has had no practi-
cal use in the past, save as fencing
by Mexicans, the resultant hedge most
beautiful in the time of Towering. 1t
is of slow growth, the average matur-
ed plant probably having a life of 40
years, till it's growth is such that it
is blown over by the wind, for its
roots are small. Some plants have
been found even 16 feet in height.
The first utilization of the ocatillo
now is in progress at Salome, a sta
ton on the Arizona & California rail-
road, go miles northeast of Phoenix,
in a district notable for the growth
of the desert shrub. For year the
Ocatillo p roducts Company has been
experimenting on processes for the ex
tracing of gum of the plant. Though
relative degree of success was Sc
cured by the solvent method, by the
use of distillate or gasoline, this plan
has been rejected and distillation has
been adopted as most effective and
most economical.
However, odd it may appear, resort
has been taken to a distillation fur
mace originally designed for the
handling of Ignite Goals. Such a
graduate oven or retort now is being
completed at Salome by it's inventor,
