bettcring conditions, the heads of
the railroad decided that diyersifi
cation of agriculture, with live stock
production as the basis, would not
only answer their problem as to
greater tonnage, but would also
serve to make the producers more
prosperous and aid in building up
the population and wealth of the
territory served by the railroad.
A campaign to place live stock on
every farm was instituted. The
railroad brought pure bred bulls,
pure bred boars and pure bred rams
by the wholesale and either prac-
tically gave them to the worthwhile
farmers and ranchcrs, or else sold
them ON very easy terms. Bankers
were encouraged to loan money on
live stock. Farmers were cncour-
"gad to cut down wheat acreage and
Increase acreage Of forage and grain
crops which could be fed to live

The problm was solved in few

AlIH bI lHt ttuHtiN bt'dIHt pIOH'tI
ous, bank deposits pyramided, and
the railroad was hauling live stock
and farm products over its rails
every month in the year. With the
addition of 1--we stock came greater
soil fertility so that, even with
smaller wheat acreage, the yields per
acre were higher and, with the pro
gram of live stock and diversified
tion we'll under way, the railroad
discovered that If had not lost its
great volume of wheat tonnage but
that the volume actually had shown
IN increase and this condition has
ralcd year after year, since 1912
whcn the program was first inaugu
rated.
Some Of our western railways are
up against practically the same
problem today that confronted this
railway eighteen wears ago and
where we do not have divcrsification
We still have the single crop to deal
With. In most eases what is needed
is djVcrsificatiun on the individual
farm or ranch. It is honestly be-
ljcved that if We would all get be-
bind q program Of some live stock
on every farm and ranch, we would
have more prosperous agriculture

LOS ANGELES. Jan. 2.-One Of
thg great trans-eonunental rail-
roads some years ago was worried
because Of the seasonal nature of its
freight traffic. In this instance, the
road was called upon to carry on
an enormous tonnage Of wheat dur
ing about two or three months in the
late summer and fail. During the
balance of the year, tonnage was
comparatively light, yet in order to
give adequate service during the
heavy grain marketing season, it
was necessary that the big railroad
invest in millions Of dollars worth of
locomotives, freight cars and other
expensive equipment Moreover, #
was necessary to employ 4 large
force Of mon, most Of whom had to
bc maintained on the company $
raHroIis throughout the year. in or
der to have skilled mru to handle
trains during the peak movements.
Here was a situation which means
lcavV expense al the Fcar around
for the rail company, yet only about
ninety days when there Was suffi-
cieUt volume Of business to pay cx-
Pcnses Certainly, it was not pos
>lbie t. tx the producers Of that
territory sufficiently to pay the
burden, yet the expenses had to be
carnrd out Of freight rry,pues.
The far sighted head OF tho rail
road could See but one way out
and that was to develop freight tra,.
fire for his road which would b.
constant ''fccdcr' for his system
the year around.
Incidentally, there was another
ior problem to b. faced. That
dealt with the prosperity of the
farmers along the line. ii Yields
were heavy and market prices favor
able, the farmers were prosperous.
But if There happened to hc n short
wheat crop which happened more
often than bumper crop - or if
the wheat market happened not to

uatieu which often came about =
