ILLINOIS FARMERS
MAKE CAR SURVEY
Reports Shows Excuse for "car Short
age" is Largely ComoufIage; Hun
dreds of Cars Idle.
ray Associated Press.l


Chicago, Aug. 22.-The first sur
vey of freight cars ever taken by the
farmers of a state has just been COM
pleted through the Illinois Agricultural
Association, Secretary d. o. Thomp-
son announced today. On the basis of
this census, he said, Illinois farmers
did not believe there was a car short
age. The trouble with transportation
he characterized as 'immobility" and
he declared the farmers meant to find
out whose fault it was
Secretary Thompson said the assoc
citation undertook its census after re-
ceiving reports from farmers over the
state that they saw many cars stand
ing idle on country tracks.
Members of the association made
daily records of the car initials and
numbers of all cars at 494 stations To-
Gated in 46 different counties for seven
consecutive days" the state farm bur-
eau executive said. "Of these 494 sta
tions. lag or 29.5 percent, reported
some of the same cars on tracks the
last day of the count as were on the
tracks the first day of the count.
AT all stations. 1924 cars were list
ed the first day and of these cars, 938
out of 1924 cars had not been moved
from the country point for seven con-
secutive days. This is just a little
over 10 percent Of the cars at such
points.
mo count was made in Chicago. In
several other large yards the associa-
ton enumerators were elected from
the yards by railroad officials
mine operators say they were
forced to idleness many days each
week, leading to the strike of the
miners which recently tied up the
mines just when the farmers were
needing coal for threshing At this
same time before the strike in Chris
tion county, at Clarksdale and at Vii
leys, two trains of coal cars totaling
SO cars were reported empty at both
first and last days of the count.
IF we may take the yotal number of
freight cars of the country on Deem
Der 81, 1918, as a basis for computa-
ton and consider that the percentage
of immobility of cars is as great in
Chicago, Toledo and New York as in
country places like Clarksdale, FL
deity and Low Point, it is a very
moderate when we say that the total
number of new cars which the rail-
roads say they need to meet the trans
portation requirements of the present
moment, is not a patch to the total
of immobile cars now idling by the
weeks and months in terminal yards
an don side tracks at country points.
This survey shows pretty clearly
to the farmers of Illinois the excuse
of car shortage is largely camouflage,
given to cover up some real. deeper
reason for the present transportation
inefficiency. And to search for that
reason will be the next job of the
farmers business organization"

TEXAS CATTLEMEN
FINDLOANS HARD
Money Stringency is Resulting in
Herds on Many Ranches Being
Seriously Depleted.
fRy AsaocIated PrsssA

Fort Worth, Tex, Aug. 22.-Texas
cattlemen are facing a very serious
situation, which has its bearing on the
country's beef supply due to their in
ability to get loans, according to A. G..
Villains, assistant secretary Of the
Cattle Raisers' Association of Texas.
He said that the money stringcncy
was bringing about the depletion of
existing herds and preventing the
building UP of new ones.
More good pasturage is going to
waste in the cattle country than for
many years" Mr.. Williams said.
Range conditions in Texas and else
where have, been ideal for the past
year, and. prices, though unsaisfac-
tory, have not in general meant actual
loss to the stockmen. The relatively
low prices prevailing have been in
goodly measure a result of the inabil-
ity to obtain credits.
"The present financial situation,
however, following on the heels of se-
we're drouths in both the southwest
and northwest, is bringing about a re-
duction of the cattle population which
must in the end mean mounting beef
prices and nationwide economic loss.
"On recent trip through west
Texas and New Mexico 1 had occa-
sion to observe that many pastures
were unstocked, or thinly stocked, and
inquiry developed the fact that owners
We're anxious to stock and had plenty
of security but could not obtain lcuns.
MANY cattlemen whose ranches
were stocked were being completed to
hquidate, and thousands of cattle
which should normally be used for
breeding, or at least for development
into finished befe, were being sold
for slaughter.
The sheep-raising interests Of the
San Angelo country are even more
seriously threatened than the cattle
interests. This is due in part to the
financial stringency, and is having its
bearing on the cattle situation.
"The principal factor in the sheen
mems problem, however. appears to be
the virtual withdrawal of the wool
buyers from the market. The wool
crop this year in the San Angelo ter
ritory is estimated at between 5000,
900 and 100000 pounds, an increase
of about 100000 pounds over former
years.
Comparatively little of that has
been marketed because the buyers,
having comfortable stocks on hand,
are not offering anything like a fair
price. The growers are endeavoring
to hold, and have several million
pounds stored at San Angelo and
neighboring points"

West Virginia led from the early
