"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

known in Alliance and over this di-Hh

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.

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.

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. Stone of the United
States Geological Survey, Depart
ment of the Interior, the domestic
production of salt in 1916 was 4 5,
449,329 barrels, the imports were
871,992 barrels, and the exports
were 600,461 barrels. 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.
I Perhaps the most marked feature
in the salt Industry in 1916 was the
, great increase in quantity of brine
sold as such or used by chemical
works, the Increase being 37 per
cent and the total production over
18,000.000 barrels. The production
of rock salt increased over 17 per
cent and amounted to 9.973,950 bar
rels, valued at $2,665,270. On the
other hand, the production of evap
orated salt Increased only 5 per cent,
to 17.575,629 barrels, but the value
was $10,i49,412. an increase of
nearly 15 per cent.
