figures are multiplied by three, 1t may be
seen what would be necessary 70 reed an
army corps of 10000 men.
Should it become necessary to trans
port these ratons for any considerable
distance. whore there are no railway or
steamboat facilities. It would require 5i6
four-mule teams carrying a maximum
load of 1900 pounds each. or 2S2 four

that number for an army corps These
figures Of course. do not include the bag

rhe daily rations OF a soldier while I'm
camp. which means the amount OF rood
and supplies allowed for one day is as
follows. Fresh beef. 20 ounces or bacon i

al the rate Of u As ounces OF potatoes
and 10 ounces of onions. I'm lieu or
portion of the onions canned tomatoes
can be obtained.
This amount Of food is considered
amply sufficient for the most healthy
and hearty man. and If there is
scarcity of provisions it is because the
cooks and company commlssaries do not
look closely enough after the prepare
ton of the food. This difficulty has OF
course been more or sless experienced by

ten days rations on hand at one time

When travelling 1t becomes impracti-
cable for the soldiers to prepare their
rations and the following allowance Is
then made for the day. Corned beef,
twelve ounces; soft bread. IS ounces or l5
ounces hard tack: canned tomatoes, 70
ounces and n cents In money with which
to purchase coffee already made.
When even the carrying OF 1ese ra-
tlons IS impracticable, while travelling,
the soldier IS allowed $3.50 per day and
when az post or station. detached from
mis- company and impracticable to cook
rations. the allowance is 70 cents per day.
