Military and
Naval Gossip,

To supply an army with weapons Is
only a small part of the work of equip
ment. The men must be fed and clothed,
and provision must be made for count
less contingencies. Wagons, light bat
terry carriages, ambulances and FORCES
are now built by contract, and they can
be turned out quickly.
Clothing, shoes, hats and like furnish
ings for the army come under the SUI
pervison OF the quartermaster general
and his assistants and are supplied by
contract and stored at the different
quartermasters' department store
houses throughout the county. Food
supplies are under the supervision of
the commissary general Of subsistence
and are likewise secured by contract
While the provisioning of a company
or regiment even is not n difficult task.
the supplying Of food for 100, 900 r.en is a
far different matter and it is c)solutely
| essential that transportation from the
base of supplies should at all times be
uninterrupted and subject to no decays.
For this reason the government as
sumes control of such railroads ardves-
| sells as might be necessary, private bust
ness being permitted only SO far as it
| does not conflict with military necessi-
| ties.
Whenever IT becomes necessary to
| put an army in condition To take the
| field, the general in command, upon an
| order from the secretary Of war. at
once recruits the regular military es
| Enlistment up to its full limit OF ell
cheney These men. together with the
volunteers who have been requistloned
from the government of the various
states or have been raised by direct
enlistment. are assembled at some con-
venient point. where they are formed
| into regiments, brlgades and divisions
under officers OF sufficient rank in the
| regular army. Most of the volunteers
when they reach the rendezvous are
found to he lmperfectly clothed and
| shod and also in many cases entirely
| ignorant of the simplest features Of the
| life of soldier in the field. These men
must of course be taught to know what
| is expected of them on the march and
in camp and what they must do to pre-
| serve their health.
