estimates These reports show that
the longer hauls to market generally
are in cotton states or in the Rocky
mountain region. The smaller loads
also are in the cotton states. The aver
age size of Il wagon load of cotton Is
three bales, or 1900 pounds, while the
average wagon load of wheat is $50
bushels, or 5000 pounds.
However, while the size of the cotton
load is much smaller than that of the
corn load, the value of the former is
greater. The average value of Il load
of cotton, based on farm prices Dec.
l, 1913, was S1S3; wheat, $43; corn,
$2S.
The bulletin states that wagon hauls
are much shorter this year than 1906,
when the last similar inquiry was
made.
Railroad building" it IS stated,
during the past nine years has
brought some farms nearer to shipping
points and markets and has helped to
shorten the average distance hauled
and to increase the average number of
trips per day.
During the seven years following
1906 more than $4,000 miles Of new
railroad were built, and several thou
sand more miles have been added since
1913 so that there are at least 10 per
cent more miles of steam railroads In
the United States now than in 1906.
"In addition to this new mileage of
steam railroads the hauls OF some
farmers have no doubt been shortened
by new freight carrying electric rail-
roads"
The figures indicate a considerable
rise in the average cost per day to the
farmer in hauling his products. How
ever, this higher cost per day is Offset
partly or wholly by the larger quanti-
ties hauled per day in 1915 compared
with 1906
