During the civil war why was life on the front more difficult for the southerners?

The North, being wealthier, more industrial, and more populous, had more resources than the South. Union troops were well-supplied, since the U.S.Navy ruled the coastline and rivers and could deliver copious materiel. The North also commanded more railroad lines and had large urban manufacturing centers far from the front that were connected to those railroad lines. The Rebels, on the other hand, were often hungry and ill-clothed. The pivotal battle of Gettysburg, in fact, came about because Lee's army stumbled into town looking for shoes for its troops, who were ragged and barefoot.
