State & County News<br />
Although prices received by<br />
New Jersey fanners last month<br />
,were three par cent higher than<br />
they'were a year ago, the farmers<br />
have less to sell this year and<br />
thus will derive a smaller annual<br />
income, the State Department o<br />
Agriculture deftares.<br />
Dry weather cut yields of fruits<br />
and vegetables and prices received<br />
for milk, poultry, and eggs<br />
were so-near production costs<br />
that some farmers curtailed production<br />
of the items.<br />
Apples and peaches were notable<br />
exceptions to UM higher trend<br />
in good prices, the report said.<br />
Vegetable prices were oil the average<br />
24 per cent higher this August<br />
than in the same month a year<br />
ago, the report said.<br />
Highway safety lighting curtailed<br />
throughout the State durlng<br />
the war emergency nas been<br />
ordered restored by State Highway<br />
Commissioner Spencer Miller,<br />
Jr.<br />
This action was recommended<br />
by Major James L. Hays, High-<br />
way Electrical Engineer, who explained<br />
that favorable battlefront<br />
reports and Increased vehicular<br />
and pedestrian traffic at<br />
many locations have made adequate<br />
illumination imperative to<br />
reduce accident hazards.<br />
The list authorised by the road<br />
commissioner calls for a State<br />
contribution of $6,600 from the<br />
automobile license fees and gasoline<br />
taxes for 167 units and the<br />
total will gradually be increased<br />
until it equals that of the prewar<br />
