many factors which always develop il
prosperous times and restrict manufac>
turing interests to "a. considerable eN
tent. Labor troubles, a shortage in sup
plies of raw material, slow. deliveries. 'ans
q scarcity of cars and metive power are
incidents that mark the business situn
tion. These things are always to be ex'
pected. The business of the country has
grown faster than the equipment of mo.
tive power, and cars Of the railroads te
successfully handle it Notwithstanding
their recent additions.
The railroads have in the past found IL
is not advisable to carry extensive equip
ment, as their, traffic has, only been Of
the rush order for a. few. months at a
time in the spring and fall, and then q
larger percentage of their cars had to be
sidetracked, to await a return of the
next busy season. For the past year
business has run along with unprecedent-
ed regularity, and railroads have been.
busy all the time their miscellaneous
traffic exceeding all records. The CAR
builders have been full Of orders. and
their books are loaded with them at pres
ent. Locomotive builders have also been
rushed and are full Of orders for months
to come. The scarcity of motive power
and of cars has become a serious factor
in the iron and steel situation. Western
furnaces are suffering from a scarcity of
coke and coal, and three in this section
are idle. as the coke cannot be moved
from Eastern furnaces to keep the West
supplied. Operations by the foundries
are also materially restricted, some hav-
ing suspended operations entirely.
