Few people that see even one of the largest of the great lake freight carriers can comprehend that one of these boats can transport a train load of wheat two miles loug. The recent cargo of the Carnegie would load 300 cars with 600 bushels each, and that number of cars would be required to handle that many cars if divided into trains, yet the Carnegie transports all this grain at a fuel cost of about one ton of coal per ten miles. The seven locomotives would burn about three and one-half tons hauling the wheat ten miles. One of these big steamers can be run with half the number of men that would be required to handle the saine amountof freight by rail, and can deliver the goods from Duluth to Buffalo in much less time than by rail.
