stitute For Hardtack.
The elimination of chicken from the
army menu, the limitation of turkey
to Thanksgiving and Christmas, the
substitution Of so called field bread
for bareback and adjustment Of the
field ration sum up the important
changes in the army ration for the
American soldier made in the last year,
according to the report Of Commissary
General Henry G. Sharpe. The elimi-
nation OF chicken has resulted in a
yearly saving to the government Of
$4,000.
It costs the United States 1914 cents
a day more to feed the American SOL
der in Alaska than it did those sta
toned in the United States. This is
held to be due principally to the cost Of
beef and its transportation to the iso-
lated posts In the territory. The daily
average cost Of the rations issued In
the United States alone was 22.75
cents, in Alaska $3.50 cents, In Hawaii
24.1O cents. in Porto Rico 2S.72 cents.
aboard transports 1882 cents, for
American soldiers in the Philippines
24.56 cents and for the native soldiers
in the Philippines 1887 cents.

Owing to the fact that the litter Of
r,fuse thrown from battleship may
provide a trail by means of which the
enemy may ascertain the direction 1t
is taking. the navy department pro-
poses to install incinerators on Its
ships. During the world girdling cruise
of the battIeship fleet the slower sery-
ice ships reported that they had no diff
fculty in trailing the fighters by the
litter which doated for miles In their
