Interesting Railroad Facts.

IN one year. 1907, one man, with the
aid of modern railroad appliances was
able to move one ton Of freight 139. $50
miles, and one passenger 16.397 miles
A man with good team Of two horses
and a wagon on roads better than the
average American road would be doing
well to haul l u tons 80 miles, six DAYS
in the week. or 13.500 ton miles FER
year. leaving no time for passenger
transportation. At this rate 1t would
require more than ten men and 20
horses to do the freight transport alton
which one man does with railroad
and without any horses; and to carry
the freight traffic which the railroads
of this country carried last year. IT.
100000 men and 35.000000 horses
would be required, instead of the
1872 900 men who actually not only ef
iected the transportation of all this
freight, but of all the passenger tra..
