can be transported by wagon.
A Big as a Hat Box,
The small range Is sufficient to do all
the cooking for company of flfty-flve
men, and nevertheless it is not as big
as a woman's hat box of the present time.
II is about twenty inches square and
sixteen inches high, and at first sight II
looks like little safe or money chest.
Nevertheless, it contains all the pans,
kettles and equipment to supply that
! many men. 1t includes a stovepipe and
lantern and all of the kitchen ,uten-
sils.
How would any woman reader OF this
article like to take a stove the size OF
a steamer trunk, and put all her kitchen
tools in II and go OFF oil trip to cook
for fifty-five men. That is what the army
cook does. The range is set upon the
ground usually over a trench or hole and
fire built beneath Il. 1t can be put up
and taken down in five minutes. During
my stay at the school the sergeant cook
IN charge took one out at the back and
set it up in front Of the camera. The
Photograph shows that the range only
reaches my knee and nevertheless It will
cook three meals day year in and year
out. for fifty-five men.
The other range, which is intended for
III men. is perhaps twice as big. 1t is
made Of sheet steel. but 1t is 20 be made
in the future OF a pure iron. which will
not rust. am told that the commissary
department now has enough Of these two
kinds OF ranges on hand to supply an
army of 100000 men with food in the
field, so that II an army OF that size
should be called into being we could sup
ply them all with bread and food upon
very short notice.
Kitchen Cars for the Troops.
In addition to this arrangements have
been made for large number OF kitchen
cars or rolling kitchens. This is in con-
nection with the Pullman company,
which. at the suggestion OF the commits
sary general has remodeled some OF its
tourist cars for the purpose. The cars
may be used for the tourist travel while
: they are not employed by the War de-
partment, and in case OF war they could
be employed TO carry the soldiers and
each would supply hot meals for 900 men
at one time.
These are among some Of the things

our cooks in the Field.

At the cooking and baking schools the
students are taught how to do all sorts
OF work without any machinery to speak
Of They are taught 10 make bake ovens,
which consist Of little more than a hole
in the ground or OF trenches covered with
clay One Of these rude makeshifts Is a
kind OF a barrel oven. a flour barrel or
any other old round thing Is half sunken
in the earth and clay put over It In such
way that when tho fire is started the
barrel burns out anL the clay Is formed
into an oven. They also have semi
cylinders OF iron which are used some
times. This was the form OF oven that
was employed largely during the Spanish
American war. IL Is. as General Sharpe
says. u man-idller. and is only put up in
cases OF emergency.

This Bread Keeps Fresh Two Weeks.
Another bread made here is such that
1t will keep for days and still remain
fresh end good This is after French
method, the bread being made in long
round loaf, one OF which stood upon
end would reach 60 the height of ones
waist. The loaf Is half slit before
baking and i'm this way an additional
amount of crust is formed. Such bread
is good when the army is marching so
rapidly that new bread cannot be sup
piled from day to day. 1t should be
good and palatable for fifteen days after
making, and it is intended to be used
when the troops cannot be supplied with
soft bread and to obviate the necessity
of using hard bread at such times
The Emergency Ration.
And Just here ] want to tell you about
the emergency ration. This is a new food
by means of which the soldier need never
go hungry. 1t has been invented by the
commissary general in connection with
other officers Of the army, and 1t consists
of little package not bigger than deck
Of playing cards, or, when incased in tim
not larger than half-p.nt flask OF
whisky. 1t can be easily carried in ones
breast pocket. This little package weighs
| only eight ounces, but It contains three
I full meals, and its nature is such that a
man could live upon it for long time II
lie had TO. II is made OF the component
parts of milk and eggs, so treated and
mixed with chocolate that they look ex-
actly like the chocolate cakes you buy in
the candy stores. Each ration is in the
form of three cakes Of equal size. Each
cake is wrapped in tin foil, and all three
are inclosed in an hermeticaly sealed

STRUGGLES.

Despite the number OF football up
sets which featured last Saturday,
contests, an incident that seldom hap

are scheduled for next Saturday which
also may result in the same number
Of surprises aside from eliminating
supposedly stronger eloyens from the
race for Their respective titles.
In the west interest win center
around the Northwestern Wisconsin
struggle at Evanston, while the Michi-
gan Vanderbilt struggle ct Ann Arbor
viii command attention. As the Pur-
pie eleven and Badgers have not been
defeated, the loser Of this contest
which should result in hare and ag-
sressive football, will be eliminated
from the conference race.
At Minneapolis, Minnesota and Iowa
win clash in another battle in which
the loser cannot lay any claims TO the
conference title. on the form display
ed by both teams this season the Co
piers should be easy winners.
Michigan will meet Vanderbilt at
Ann Arbor in a game which will have
an important bearing on the caliber Of
football played in the central west ana
in the south. Vanderbilt is the ac-
knowledged champion of the south
while Michigan had the strongest elev-
en- in the west last season.

WoLGAsT TOO GREEDY.
May Lose Match With Wells Through
Excessive Demands.

New York, oct. 26--Negotiations are
under way for a round bout be-
tween Packey Mcfarland. the Chicago
boxer, and Matt Wells, the lightweight
champion of England. to be held at the
Fairmont Athletic club there early
next month. II is declared that Al
WolEast. because of unreasonable de-
mands, is in danger of losing his
match with Wells, scheduled for Nov.
-, and Mcfarland is likely to be sub
stituted for the tltleholder. The chief
contention on which the promoters Of
the contest have baked is Wolgast's
stipulation that the club must put up
the entire amount of the purse, $4,000
before the bout, or there will be moth
ing doing.
Mcfarland and Wells were matched
