The science of railroad building out West Is
4 developing some new methods. The old sys-
tem OF getting q road-bed over great eleva-
ton was to distribute the grade over as much
space as possible, which necessarily made the
work very expensive. The new plan Is to fol
low the lay of the land as nearly as posi-
pie lump the heavy grades together and then
use heavier locomotives to draw the trains
over these steep places. In this way rail-
roads are now made to climb such grades as
were scarcely dreamed OF few years ago,
and the cost Of surmounting high hills is
greatly diminished
