The Successful Farmer Raises Bigger Crops and cuts down costs by investment in j labor-saving machinery. Good prices for the farmers’ crops en- j courage new investment, more production j and greater prosperity. But the success of agriculture depends ' on the growth of railroads—the modern beasts of burden that haul the crops to the world’s markets. The railroads—like the farms—increase their output and cut down unit costs by the constant investment of new capital. With fair prices for the work they do, ( the railroads are able to attract new capital for expanding their facilities. Rates high enough to yield a fair r etum i wiM insure railroad growth, and prevent costly traffic congestion, which invariably results in poorer service at higher cost National wealth can increase only as our railroads grow. Poor railroad sendee is d<jar at ary price. No growing country can long pay the price of inadequate trauspoi .ation facilities.
