Turks. But even had our men been

little opportunity of exercising their
skill Camp kettles were issued at kal-

the kettle would cook fresh but nor

and. moreover, this number. five. repre-
scented nothing tHen. nor does ii now.

Most of the kettles had been droppal
ut the Alma, or in the SUBSEQUENT
march, and the soldiers were reduced
for all cooking purposes to the mess tin
which each man carried on his back.
These We're inadequate. The lid. per
hapS, was most priced, for when Tho
body Is wet ard cold there is a crayin.,
for hot drink. and it took less time
and fuel TO roast the green coffee ben
