The army subsistence officers do not
take kindly to the criticism which has
been made by Major Charles e. Woodruff,
of the Army Medical corps, Of the army
ration. The medical officer in a recent
article made the remark that there was
much to accomplish in the United States
army ration, as compared with the Euro
pean military diet, and he added that our,
ration '1s one Of the worst in the world"
Considerable study has been devoted to
this subject of the soldiers food in peace
and in war and the ration allowance is 80
liberal that last year the saving on the
ration amounted to 81, 100000, which
amount was turned over to the various
companies by which the saving was eff
fected for expenditure In directions cal
culated to relieve the monotony of the
regular ration and add In other ways TO
the comfort and contentment of the SOL
der. With such a means Of purchasing
extras, the subsistence officers do not be-
lieve II necessary for congress to provide
fifty cents monthly for each soldier,
which Major Woodruff has again advo-
Gated as an allowance which shall in
Grease the army ration. The comment
made by subsistence officers upon Major
Woodruffs criticism is that he has not
been sufficiently explicit in pointing out
exactly In what particular the army ra-
ton fails 10 meet all the demands for a
sufficient, diversified and nutritive diet.
There Is no intention Of taking up the
subject, which has been the occasion OF
much conscientious study on the part OF
commissary and medical officers.

The army q-uartermasters who have to do
with military apparel are e%ncountering
much difficulty in obtaining a satisfactory
slicker for use in the military establish
ment. They are now engaged in having
tried by cavalry troops in Honolulu and at
Fort Riley an article which has been
recommended to the authorities as likely
to perform its function Of shedding water
when worn as a garment in rainy weather.
The slickers hitherto used have been crit
icised because they are not waterproof or
even water repellant; they crack and stick
together. One lot Of such articles after
being packed in the Philippines was so
amalgamated that the officer in charge
pronounced them as soldiers apparel. It Is
appreciated that the army sllcker encoun-
ters unusual conditions, since 1t must be
adaptable for all climates, and the experts
are beginning to doubt whether It is possi-
BILE to obtain such a garment.

Arrangements have been made by the
military authorities for the course of in
struction at the service schools, other than
the military academy at West Point, for
those who hold certificates of eligibility
for commissions in the volunteer force.
Few additions are made year by year to
this list. Tho period Of instruction at the
garrison schools for officers is from No
vember / to March 81; the period at the
service schools at Fort Leavenworth is
from September 1 to June 80; that at the
coast artillery school at Fort Monroe
from September 1 to August l, and that
at the Army Medical school in Washing
ton begins on October / and continues for
eight months. No provision is made for
the attendance at joint camps Of instruc-
ton of any persons who have been found
eligible for commissions in volunteer
forces who are not members OF the or
ganized militia. Several cases are Of rec
ord, however, in which the War depart
ment has authorized such persons to at
tend joint camps Of instruction as OBJ
servers on recommendation of the COM
manding general Of the camp. In such
cases the authority carried the require
ment that all expenses incident to at
tendance at the camp should be borne by

The au~artermaster general of the army
will renew his effort Of last year to obtain
horses for the military service in Virginia,
West Virginia and ~neighboring states and
for this purpose Captain Caspar H. Con-
rad, jr., Third cavalry, now on duty at
Fort Clark. Tex, will resume his duties
of purchasing young animals in Virginia
and West Virginia and later, perhaps, In
the Ohio valley. in Kentucky and Tonnes
see. For this purpose use will again be
made Of the farm leased near Front Royal.
Success has attended the acquisition of
young horses for army use in this direction
and it is expected by General Aleshire that
It will be advantageous to continue the
system. The army remount depots at Forts
Keogh and Reno are in a prosperous con-
dition, no less than 1000 horses being at
the latter place. Favorable reports con-
tinue to be received at the War department
from officers who nave observed the horses
received from these depots and the system
has been productive of such profitable re-
suits in every respect that If 1t were possi-
BILE General Aleshire would establish a
third army remount depot in the north
western section Of the country SO as to
have a base of supply Of horses for the
Philippine islands. At present 1t does not
appear that there is any suitable site which
could be obtained at what is regarded by
the military authorities as a reasonable
figure. Later on, General Aleshire, as OPP
portunity affords, will develop the remount
depot idea in order that the mounted serv-
ice may obtain the full benefits Of the
system.

Cause of the Slump In Food Prices

FOLLOWING the Democratic vcto ries in the East comes a slump
in food prices. The slump means plainly enough that n people w
rebuked the high duties O N breadstufs and meat and that the big inter
ess that have fattened off Republican perfection will nave to deal with
a Democratic revision of the tariff from this on.
With the prices OF mea going down in the East San Francisco is
also about ito experience a slump pin the high cost of living, though from
IN unexpected and entirely different source.
The price of mutton is destined to fall so hard that it will have lit
tie chance to rise o the IL and Ia cent figure ofla winter, or IN TACT.
higher than any figure higher than eight cents a pound.
The death blow &c the classification Of mutton as a luxury will be
dealt by New Zealand sheep exporting interests. The INVASION OF the 10
cal market has already begun, in spite of the M -cent-a pound ate to-
the 6S3O miles, and the two-an one hafcent import duty.
The sheep men of New Zealand are preparing to invade the United
States with mutton and have egun with San Francisco where they will
land 5000 cold storage sheep a month az as norman tax a
fancy to the meat with a difference in price which is shown as between
fourteen cents and eight.
Mutton sells in New Zealand att four and ahaf cents a pound. She
shipped we four million pounds to London last year and is now nvad-
ing New York. The mutton that gets into San Francisco will be shipped
all over the Coast and while a few sheep raisers will suffer tn great
mass of consumers will be benefited. If any mutton consumer who likes
a nigh protective tariff and wants to pay the high price still desires to
show his devotion to Repubhcansm and high arih, lie can still onhnu
&c deal with the tariff protected mutton baron and pay him the top price.
There is n o law to prevent him.
