Answer 14

Yw medal for u

Answer 15

because they didn't really have to have boats right

Answer 16

I would actually say C. Reason being is because it gave thier range of sell a greater area. Instead of only being able to sell to say, Central Kansas, a refrigerated Box car would keep meat fresh to go all the way to New York City.

Answer 17

that makes sense to -.-

Answer 18

Yes itscletus it could have but no. It was a lot cheaper and faster to use a telegram

Answer 19

We are speaking Cattle farmers in general. Trust me. It's in the 8th grade history book. Meat rots easily. Though telegraph was an excellent invention and in fact helped cattle farmers. I think that the refrigerated Box car helped. It does not say about price. it asked what had the greatest impact of that particular type of farmer

Answer 20

The telegraph was important, but in reality, it had not much of an impact on cattle farming. Really the only thing that they may have even been able to use it for is maybe to tell a friend rancher about say, a coyote or predator. The box car however, expanded the business of the farmer to at least two times his normal reach.

Answer 21

Yes but think about it telegram was a lot cheaper then running a railcart to every buyer. Not every cattle farmer had the money for that. You can't put cattle in refrigerated rail cars any way

Answer 22

You are aware what comes from cattle right?

Answer 23

A refrigerator car (or "reefer") is a refrigerated boxcar (U.S.), a piece of railroad rolling stock designed to carry perishable freight at specific temperatures. Refrigerator cars differ from simple insulated boxcars and ventilated boxcars (commonly used for transporting fruit), neither of which are fitted with cooling apparatus. Reefers can be ice-cooled, come equipped with any one of a variety of mechanical refrigeration systems, or utilize carbon dioxide (either as dry ice, or in liquid form) as a cooling agent. Milk cars (and other types of "express" reefers) may or may not include a cooling system, but are equipped with high-speed trucks and other modifications that allow them to travel with passenger trains.

Answer 24

People bought cattle as well.

Answer 25

Do you know how much money that would cost a cattle farmer?

Answer 26

So had this but very few it is better and faster but more of them had telegram

Answer 27

Milk and meat are both very perishable. cattle farmers didn't raise the animal just to have as pets. The money that you get from cows comes from the PERISHABLE items that they produce. Therefore, the refrigerated box car was essential for meat and milk transportation. Look at the world today, Meat and milk are carried in REFRIGERATED trailers.
