EMERGENCY RATION.
Supplies Carried by Each Soldier of
the Regular Army.
Five Days Food Weighs But Ten
Pounds and Takes Up Only . Small
Amount of Space-What 1t
IL Composed OF.

About two years ago board of army
officers was ordered to convene in
Washington and get up an emergency
ration, for the army. After many
months of hard work the present ration
was adopted. The first point the board
had to decide was what constituted the
emergency" and it was decided that
an emergency was such an occasion
as requiredsthe troops to subsist on
food carried ON their persons. After
many experiments the following foods
we're decided upon: Hard bread, cof-
fee or tea, bacon, pea meal, pepper, sac
charine, salt and tobacco After many
trials and many disappointments the
foods decided upon were put up in such
shape as to be palatable and at the
same time retain their nourishing quail
tiles.
The ration for one day consists of ten
ounces of bacon, 16 ounces of hard bread,
four ounces of pea meal, four ounces OF
coffee or one-half ounce of tea, four
grains of saccharine, 641O0 ounces of
salt, 4-100 ounces of pepper and one-half
ounce of tobacco. The total of the
weight for five days is little over ten
pounds. This ration is never used for
over five days, the board having de-
cided that such time was the minimum
time for which men could live on the
ration, still keep up their physical
strength and be in good fighting condi-
ton. This ration is kept in the COM
missary storehouse at all military
posts ready for immediate use. The IL
lustration given shows how it is put up
in small packages. The bacon, cut into
a piece weighing 50 ounces, would be
wrapped up in paper prepared for the
purpose and kept in stock. The pea
meal comes wrapped as shown, and re-
sembles a thick, short Roman candle.
A man would carry five, one for each
days ration. The hard bread is not
the proverbial hard tack Of olden
times. It comes in the shape OF small
