There were additional expen- ditures for maintenance of track extensions to yards and develop- ment of new ones. erection of buildings. purchases of fuel and normal supplies. and a thousand and one other things that the rail- way had to do to maintain its ser- vices. "When engine power can be de- veloped from the atom you can be assured that the railways will use it." he continued. "They have been quick to take advantage of tech- nological advancements and have inspired many of them. Wood gave way to coal which is now being supplemented or surplanted by oil and electricity; main line rail has risen 56 to 130 pounds to the yard and will be increased to 131' pounds: automatic signals are re- placing train orders as fast as the railways can afford to install them.

Recent high prices for wool have accentuated this trend as farmers have turned over more acres to pnsturage for sheep. One way in which the govern- ment hopes to talk the farmers into growing more wheat is by stressing the fact that wheat fits in well with crop-rotation plans aimed at providing better pastures for sheep.
