surplus available for common. SIT, g;

ESTIMATED. t.-.:. ...-.- ..-. a"F 49, ..t--
This is equal to about 20 per cent on the
common stock for the four months Of the cur
rent fiscal year, and if earnings continue at the
same rate for the whole of the fiscal year the
showing would be equal to about 81 per cent
on the common stock. 'r
This computation does not take account Of pos
sible allowances for betterments and improve
ments or for increased maintenance charges The
latter should be increased and probably will be
with improved earnings. ...s .
The directors have not as yet seen fit to de-
clare dividend on the common stock, partly be.
cause the surplus for last year was small and
partly also because it is advisable to wait until
the fiscal year is further advanced. Besides, as
pointed out above, it will probably be necessary
to make heavier maintenance charges SO that
the surplus may not be large as 81 per cent
on the common stock at the end Of the fiscal
year, even If the earnings are maintained or
as good basis as at present. =,
However. the showing against last year
when the surplus in favor of the common wa.
less than per cent for the whole year, is good
The improved earnings are quite marked. Al
twothirds of the business Of this road is freight
the fine crops in its territory and the assured
| continuance for time Of large freigh
| traffic are strong factors in favor of its imme
date future.
