ST. PAUL. January .31.-Shipments
Of grain from this territory are stead

an easing of the financial stringency
in the rural districts. Announcement
this week of further extensive rail-
way and municipal construction prof.
ects also has aided to improve the
general business and employment sit
uation in the northwest. A crop sur
vey conducted by one OF the railroads
indicates a possible shortage Of wheat
before the new crop is harvested. This
would mean an increase in the price
to the farmer and the report has
greatly encouraged the rural commu-
mites. 1t is believed a nearly normal
acreage now Is assured for the coming
season.
Railroads are planning heavy ex-
penditures for equipment, track main-
tenance and terminal improvements
during the year. The Great Northern

ment, $1,000,0G0 In double-tracking
portions of the road, 100000 for ore
docks and terminal betterments and
