RAILWAY TRANSPORTATION 515 The fact that 1921 showed very little shortage of equipment was due to lack of demand for cars owing to business depression. On the other hand, the adequacy of car supply in the last three years, and more especially in 1925, in the face of heavy traffic, was due not only to better management and the ownership of more and better cars by the carriers, but also to the cooperation of the buyers of rail transpor- lation in giving the railroads, 90 days in advance, an estimate of the amount and kind of equipment that would be required. Although car loadings during every quarter of 1925 exceeded those of the corresponding period of 1924, high surpluses of equipment were Chart IV.—CAR LOADINGS OF PRINCIPAL COMMODITY GROUPS.

Traffic was handled most satisfactorily, with a minimum of delay or interruption. Car Loadings, by Commodities. The figures of car loadings, by quarters, for major commodities show certain fairly regular seasonal fluctuations (Table 7). The im- Proved service of the carriers has resulted generally in more seasonal loadings because of lessening of stocks carried. Grain and grain products normally move in greater volume during the last half than whe first half of the year, but the difference was less marked in 1925 than in 1924. Forest products in 1924 and 1925 show little change.
