MrhrdoJm Tfttal of 15 (JroupM OnranJsrd "The oryln nwd of thr- railroads in nien unci more of them." is the as eertlcm of Frank n Thoman, for merly of the 8afMy-flrst depart sMBl of the Burlington, but recently trans ferred to the frelnht car chasins bur eaus.. Mr Thomas is atiite well known in Alliance and over this di-Hh islon, blnK a more or leas rrequent caller In the city. Tin- freight car chasing burea ins a new department and has to do with the expediting of frMght cars In their movements In order that the service may be made more efficient. Mr, Thomua says that the depart ment with which he Is connected has done much in the way of solvinu the freight car shortage In his work Mr. Thomaa travels over the aystem. impressing upon agents, consignor and consignees the necessity of hur rying the loading, unloading and moving of freight cars. During the few weeks that he has been at work he has speeded up the cars and in a great measure has reduced material ly the car shortage that existed dur ing last spring. Need More Men According to Mr. Thomaa, the most serious problem with which the railroads all over the country are wrestling now is the shortage of la bor. He says that apparently men are not available Higher wagea than have cvr before been paid are being offered to men to engage in railroad work, but these wages fall to bring the men. At this time Mr. Thomaa says that at (tlbson, where the Burlington Is ronstructing new and larger yardB. sixty men could b- given employ ment, but not a man can be found who wants to work. In addition. In the (tlbson repair shops thirty skill ed car repairers and engine men are ne.-ded. but apparently there are no men who want the Jobs. What is true with reference to conditions at (Jibson applies equally as well over the lines generally. Through Nebraska and Wyoming the Burlington has employment for 250 to 500 men on track and mainten ance works. It Is said the North western needs about the same num ber, but neither the Burlington nor the Northwestern iR able to find men who want to work. Box Butte.

Adv 3 More Ik-ef In the Making " the Itnngev Mow Than There Ha It.-, n for He vera I Years Sioux City Live Stock Record: Re ports coming direct from the conven tion of the Nebraska Stock Growers Association, held In Valentine this week are to the effect that there are more cattle in the western Nebraska stock country than last year or for aeveral years. This is directly in line with findings of the Sioux City delegatea to the early spring con ventions in the range countries of western South Dakota. Wyoming and Montana. We may not have beef enough next fall and winter to meet the extraordinary demands of these war times, but there Is hardly a chance to doubt that there is more beef In the making than this country has had for several years. If the corn price, as well as the young cat corn in the coming fall, and th ear ly season haying gives every reason to expect an abundance of roughage. Normally, an viewed from tbls first day of summer, there should be an ; increase in the beef supply with the coming fall and winter but these are abnormal times and these is no safe predicting next winter feeding otperations. AUSTRIAN SLACKER .

He stated that those who wanted to could register under the conscription act but that he would not do so and The domestic consumption of salt In 1916 was 4 5.720,860 barrels of 280 pounds each, an Increase of more than 7.000,000 barrels over the con sumption of 1916. According to statistics compiled under the direc tion of R. W.

This was an increase of 19 per cent in the quan tity of salt produced. The total val ue of the salt was tl3.645.947. Michigan, as usual, was the larg est producer, and New York was a ( lOM second. The production, in barrels, by the leading states was as follows: Michigan, 14,918.278; New York, 14.087.750; Ohio, 6.706.19H Kansas, 4.564,793; California. 1.-124.236.
