In looking owe. the railroad rates we
found that the above rates as quoted are
not correct and should have been under
Wisconsin.
"a instead of 35
20 instead of 30
16 instead Of "a
13 instead of 10
or almost as low as Iowa.
The following tables are combinations
Of the preceding tables. Table A is
combination of class rates from 1 to 4
inclusive, and shows the average cost
per hundred lbs of shipping merchan-
disc in less than carload lots from
Manitowoc TO each of the 10 cities
given.
Table B is combination of the class
rates from to E inclusive, and shows
the average cost per 100 lbs of shipping
merchandise in carload lots ssron Mani
towoc to each of the 10 cities given.
In order to fully understand what
these tables mean, we will illustrate
how the tables were built up. Take
tho class rates from to from Mani
towoc to Clintonville as an example.
The rate for shipping merchandise in
class is 40 cents; class ., SO cents;
class 3, 25 cents: class 4, 90 cents;
making a total of i1S cents for shipping
100 lbs. in each class from Manitowoc
to Clintonville Dividing this 11S cents
by 4 gives us an average of $3.50 cents
per 100 lbs. as shown under "Wiscon-
sin" in table "A'. The average Iowa
rate for an equal distance is obtained in
the same way, i. Q. by adding the rates
from class to 4 inclusive, which gives
81. So cents; then dividing this by 4
gives the average rate of 1859 cents for
100 lbs. of merchandise in less
than carload lots etc. on through both
tables A and B.
ct was best to compile these tables in
this way in order to have less number
of tables to deal WITH
Table A
