Santa Fe Did a Big Business
Kansas.

The annual report Of the Santa Fe
railroad company filed with the State
Board of Railroad Commissioners re-
Gently, shows that the chief tonnage
Of the railroad companies operating
IN. Kansas consists of agricultural
products. Of the total tonnage of
tie Santa Fe in Kansas last year, q
per cent was made up of agricultural
products.
Kansas is not considered a great
mining state, yet the tonnage next in
rank is that consisting of the prod
ucts of mines. This comes mostly
from the coal and zinc in the south
eastern part of the state and the
salt in the central part Of the state.
TwentyAhree per cent of the ton
mage Of the Santa Fe in Kansas last
year consisted Of mine products.
Kansas is not looked upon as a
ereat manufacturing state, yet the
third product In rank is the product
Of the factories in Kansas. This
amounted to 20 per cent Of the to-
tai tonnage. The products from the
animal industry which is looked up
On as one OF the leading industries
q the state, ranks fourth. The total
tonnage made Up of products of the
animal industry was only II per cent
Of the total tonnage. The report
shows that eight per cent Of the ton
mage was the product Of forests and
at first thought Kansan would say
there would be no tonnage of this
nature in Kansas.
In order to move all this tonnage
1t took 1,492 engines and 41,O69 cars.
During the last fiscal year the'San
ia Fe has spent nearly two million
dollars on improvements in this state
. This consisted of new track, new
bridges, new stations, ballasting and
double tracking. The exact fig
ures for these expenditures are ST.
739,1S3.16. The Santa Fe operates a
surprisingly large mileage in Kansas
The state is only 400 miles long and
200 miles wide yet the Santa Fe has
S,539.15 miles of track in Kansas and
all of it is laid with steel except 10
