Should the 10000 troops now in the
Southwest suddenly get orders TO break

commLssary officers would have heavy
burdens of responsibility Before men
can fight well, they have to be fed. II

furnished in camp would be largely dis
carded- The commissaIy officers would
send TO the most advanced depot great
quantities OF bacon and canned meats,

Troops going beyond the advanced
depot would carry in their haversacks
from one TO three days rations maSs

Would Forage.
In emergencies, of course, foraging
would be resorted to and supplies lev
led from the surrounding country.
As far as possible the system of ac-
counting for commssary officers in the
field, in actual service, is simplified.
The accountability of the commissary
officer of a force in a campaign would
stop at the most advanced depot. He
simply gives receipts for supplies re-
ceived from the advanced depot and
keeps account of supplies purchased,
but 1t is his business to feed the troops
with him and not waste time bookk eep-
ing.
1t costs just about the same to feed
the troops whether they are In garrison
or in the field. The ration this wear
costs 2S52 cents. This is considerably
more than the cost several years ago.
The reason is that the cost of
has gone up and the army has felt II
