The portable houses are rented to employees at $4.00 

 per month. Horses and mules may appear to be valued too 

 high, but only heavy draft horses and the best mules are 

 used in the woods. Steel rails, locomotives, loaders, and 

 other equipment are quoted at market price, but the actual 

 value of the equipment is much less on account of 

 depreciation.
