TWO THE SOUTH AMBOY CITIZEN FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, <strong>1944</strong><br />

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 />
