One Of the factors that has con-
tributed to the advancement of Wis
ccnsin, not only agriculturally but
industrially, is the nearness to mar
ket and its transportation facilities.
The Great Lakes offer water trans
portation, the cheapest type.
Of the entire area Of the state only
2.4ao is more than ten miles from
railroad. The market to be supplied
may be appreciated from the fact
that there are more people in the
hicago-Milwaukee territory Wis
consin, Michigan, Illinois and In
diana, than there are in the Domin-
ion of Canada and more than there
are in the following states combined:
California, Montana, Oregon, Wash
ington, Idaho, New Mexico, Arizona,
Colorado, Wyoming, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas,
Missouri and Oklahoma.
The development of the states
manufacturing industries is an inter
esting story. Many factors have
played their part in this and volumes
have been written SO that the brief
picture attempted here must sketch
with the broadcast strokes.
Four Necessary Factors
Manufacturing depends on a prop
CT balance of raw materials, cheap
power, markets, and man. Wiscon-

Editors Note.-Badger Cities can
rightfully take pride in the long list
of products that have 'fManitowoc,"
GAINESVILLE" Sturgeon Bay" Hart

industry has been diversified, so has
the manufacturing of the state been
extended into many different fields.
