NEED MORE CARS
Railroads Have Car Famine
on Their Hands Again
ADDITION TO EQUIPMENT
Were Made but Business In
creased 20 per Cent

Trouble is brewing for all the railroads
this fall, and it is showing up right
now" said a prominent railroad man yes
terday who as a master of transported
ton on this division fully understands the
situation.
The railroads are strictly up against
a hard proposition when it comes to
handling this years wheat and corn crops
OF course, it is too early TO make very
strong predictions regarding the corn,
but We know that the wheat viii make
close to ninety million bushels in Kansas
this year, and how the railroads are
going to handle this crop with the bust
ness they are now doing is more than I
or anyone else can tell.
THE roads all show an increase Of
from 10 10 . per cent in freight tonnage
this year. You know what a car famine
was on last fall, when for weeks there
were very few cars Of wheat moving.
This year il looks worse than ever.
Every road that gets into the wheat belt
learned lesson last fall and they placed
orders for cars and engines They or
dered cars of larger capacity, seventy
and eighty thousand pounds is not I'M
common in the new cars, and the roads
bought hundreds of them. The car shops
and foundries are working overtime and
there are nearly enough new cars ready
TO have handled the crop of last year
without trouble. New engines have been
built and of a larger type. The COM
panies in the spring gave orders that all
cars should be sent to the shops as early
as possible for repairs, so as to have
them in readiness for the wheat traffic.
After all these precautions the rail-
roads are not out of the hole yet. Their
business has increased % per cent over
the traffic a year ago this month and
some lines have been rushed to death
trying to keep up, and here is the wheat
crop to move and the bulk will be moved
within the next four or five months. and it
now seems as if the car famine would
be as serious, if not greater than last
year. in spite of the provisions made by
the roads
Il see that many farmers are threshing
their wheat and selling it right from the
machine This seems to me to be the
only way to relieve the situation. Last
year comparatively little wheat moved
early in the season. The farmers held
their grain in bins or did not thresh it
until September and October. Then they
wanted to sell il right away and it was
thrown on the market. This year they are
threshing out a good deal from the shock
and selling it. If this should keep up
we will be able to handle the crop fairly
well. Last year the bulk of the crop
was thrown on the market here within
few months This year ii looks like the
wheat will come early, and that looks
good to us, for the roads may be able
to take care of a good share of the crop
without much complaint"

sent to him recently by a brother-in-law
living at Cambridge, Ohio. This Ohio
man is a great pet stock fancier and
belongs to an association of that name
in Ohio. a large reward has been offered
by the association to the owner Of car
rier pigeons that will make a trip Of
loo miles across the country and return
to their home. He had a flock of thir-
teen pigeons and while they were yet
very young sent them to Columbus, and
after being liberated they returned as
fast as wing could carry them to Cam
bridge. They were then sent to Indian
apolis and returned to Cambridge without
mishap. Not long ago they were sent TO
St Louis and twelve of the flock made
the return trip in four days. The thir-
teenth was lost in the shuttle and never
returned. The owner then sent three OF
them to Captain Ash with instructions
to hold them until favorable weather.

calls from those people asking them to
take some action and unite forces and
try to get the railroad company to ex-
tend their line to this city. The matter
