Kept the Equipment Busy and Rail Traffic Density
Howard Elliot of the Northern Pacific argues that top results come from best use of equipment and land. Official Interstate Commerce Commission data show freight cars produced 107693 tons per mile nationwide in 1905, with Great Northern 132105 and Northern Pacific 124083. Western lines show density of traffic 30 to 60 percent above other regions, reflecting high service and efficiency despite rugged terrain and blockades. For sale a dozen young hens and Brown Leghorn roosters, eggs $1 per 15. B Mayborne Sec 7 261.
