mating the rations of each man at the
cost Of twenty-five cents per day. 1t
Is a recognized fact that the United
States Army is the best fed and best
clothed army in the world. and the
cost of feeding is higher than that of
any other nation. This cost might be
reduced were it not for the waste
which Is unavoidable--and this waste
helped largely in feeding the Insur-
rectos In the Philippines during our
difficulties there after the Spanish
American War. Today the same thing
exists for we are really helping to feed
the Mexican Army outside of Vera
Cruz where Huerta's men wait for the
left-overs of the meals of our men.
While mediation is pending the two
armies are encamped not very far
apart-indeed, they are beginning to
behave like the armies of friendly
nations who happen to be at manoeu-
vres at the same time. 1t is no I'M

Enormous Amount OF Food.
General Henry G. Sharpe, Commits
sary General Of the United States
Army, In q recent interview gives the
following as one days subsistence for
an army of five hundred thousand
men:
| 500, 900 pounds Of bread.
100,0 900 pounds of sugar.
262,5 800 pounds Of bacon.
| $1,000 pounds Of desiccated vegeta-
bles, potatoes and onions.
10000 pounds of coffee Breasted and
ground).
| $4,000 pounds Of beans.
| $4,000 pounds Of tomatoes.
! 1880 pounds of Jam.
| 10000 pounds Of salt.
1880 pounds of pepper
5000 gallons of vinegar.
Fresh or canned meat can be used
whenever procurable, but it is abso-
lutely impossible to supply the army
with fresh vegetables unless they can
be purchased near the army camps. In
transporting the above named articles
fifty freight cars of 10000 pounds ca
pacity would be required. or two hun
dred and fourteen army wagons. Nat
urally, the cost Of transportation is
enormous. AS an army advances sup
ply stations are located at different
points, and these depots become more
numerous as the base Of supplies gets
farther into the enemy's country. OF
course, the greatest care is exercised
in the location Of these depots, as they
must be guarded from attack by the
enemy.
No More Hard Tack.
In the old days the soldiers lived
on q cracker known as hard tack"
but today his bread is baked in the
field and Is quite as good as the bread
purchased at the average bakery.
Every division Of 10000 men has a
bakery of its own set up In the field.
The bakeries are in charge of enlisted
men who have learned the trade of
baking at the school for army cooks
in Washington, and from sixty to sew
enty-fve men are required for each
field bakery. The bread contains as
little water as possible and is baked
in such a way that the entire surface
Of the loaf Is covered with crust. This
makes the bread solid and 1t can be
packed away and kept fresh for TWEEN
ty days. 1t is put up In sanitary PASTE
board boxes and sent to the different
regiments Of the division In automobile
trucks or army wagons. The bakers
are also experts In the art of baking
rolls and buns The field ovens can be
taken apart on an hour or two notice

to our soldiers. OF course, some few
things such as fresh vegetables are
purchased from the MexicanS who
have little gardens near Vera Cruz.
1t is the rule Of the United States In
feeding its army to pay the inhabitants
for whatever food they can secure and
never to seize food without paying for
1t unless there are aggravating cir
cumstances to warrant such action.
This fact, too, has caused no little sur
prise in Mexico as both the FedeYals
and Rebels have been used to looting
the inhabitants Of whatever they de-
sired. This naturally engendered a
hatred for the military, and when the
supply was exhausted the residents
fled and the army. having been cut off
from their base of supplies. could get
nothing in the towns and in many In
stances were on the verge of starva-
ton. In case Of war with Mexico the

tract only the placer miner and even
placer mining has been limited entirely
to the exploitation Of bonanzas. In
the absence of means of communica-
ton only the arabic lands that lie
close to the settlements have been
taken up so that the farming popula-
ton is very small, despite the rich
opportunities.
Route of the Proposed Railroad.
The route to be selected for the new
railway becomes now. with the formal
sanction Of the project. a subject Of
great interest. First and foremost Is
the question of Just where the new
line will "pierce the mountains" The
Pacific Mountain system which fringes
the coast line OF British Columbia
and stretches northward into Alaska
presents a formidable barrier to In
land travel. The great interior val
| leys lie north Of these mountains.
and all the ice-free ports lie south Of
them. Therefore 1t Is through the
passes in these mountains that rail-
way route must be sought. One pass
is already traversed by the White Pass
and Yukon Railway.
1t is going to be no simple task to
choose from among the half dozen or
! more different routes which have been
suggested for the new railroad. AS Is
apt to be the case In all such situations,
each route has its advantages and dis
advantages. For instance, there is one
route which would commend itself
strongly were 1t not for the fact that
much of 1t lies In foreign territory.
Indeed the railroad would have to run
| through Canada for nearly half the
distance in reaching the town OF Fair
banks. Some of the routes are very
rugged, meaning much hard work for
the railroad builders. Then again there
are four very excellent routes which
reach the interior but do not give
economical access to the principal coal
fields. Two routes would tap the coal
fields, but would do that only and two
other routes offer compromise in that
they reach both the coal fields and
that section OF the interior which 1t Is
hoped will develop into a rich farm
ing country. The experts who have
investigated the subject for the gov
