campaign has suffered at every stage
by slowness of getting troops and sup
plies to the seat of war and delivering
them on the scene of action at the right
time. Modern invention has not done
away with animal thirst. The British
have been hampered by the scarcity of
water because South Africa is not
abundantly supplied. Imagine 10000
to $4,000 men and thousands of draft
animals thrown suddenly into a region
barely supplying water enough for
sparse country population. And then
imagine war where, although there
might be water in plenty, an active EN-
envy took measures to keep its Oppo-
nents from reaching it. Questions of
bread and water supply caused more
than one great battle in the civil war.
There are not many roads in South
Africa, very few railways and no navi-
gable streams. But, if there were, a
foe which could be classed with Great
Britain would have blocked or wrecked
