FEEDING GREAT ARMIES.
Germans Show the Greatest Ingenui-
ty in Replenishing Stores.


Soldiers in war must be well fed
no matter what happens to the popu-
lation at home. With all that we
read in the newspapers about the suf-
fering multitudes of Germany nobody
intimates that the German soldiers
are hungry.
The Importance of the commissary
department has long been recognized
and the best fed army is usually the
most cheerful and courageous. The
German general staff is probably the
most systematic and abundant pro-
WIDER of viands in the world, but the
British are not far behind. Only the
other day a contract was awarded to
a Canadian packing house for 600,-
600, 900 one-pound cans of beef stew
for the British Tommies.
Men who have been along the Brit
ish front say that not even the i'm
possibility of getting drink causes
as much grumbling as does the lack
of strawberry jam. The issue of jam
is an institution in the British ser
vice. All the armies use vast guam
tity of chocolate in one form or an
other-usually highly sweetened.
Coffee is the soldiers drink the world
around, but the Britisher substitutes
tea on many occasions, and the habit
is said to be spreading to his French
comrades. Russian soldiers are in
veterate tea drinkers, as is every
body in Russia.
The Germans have shown the
greatest ingenuity in replenishing
their food stores. It is said that they
were even able to trade the Turks
ammunition for foodstuffs, although
Turkey was short of eatables before
the road was opened from Berlin to
Constantinople. In all the vast area
of territory that the Germans have
taken they have not missed anything
in the form of food. Northern France
has contributed it's quota. Being a
fine fruit country it has helped to
make up the equivalent of the Eng
lish jam. Even Serbia, impoverish-
ed by three wars, contributed 10000
pigs to Germany's depleted stock.
Men leading active lives, largely in
the open air, are usually big eaters,
and soldiers on duty must be In the
best of health, therefore, any army
rations must be liberal in size as well
as varied in composition. The con-
sumption of food in war time is
therefore increased, and much is
wasted. That is one reason why the
prices of food have scared in all the
European countries, though another
reason may we'll be that on the aver
age people have more money to spend
now than they did before the war.
u When we consider the vast quaint
ties of food taken for army use
when we remember that there is only
one standard ration for all soldiers
of any nationality, and that the poor
est laborer who has responded to his
country's call is just as well fed as
the dukes son who has shouldered a
rifle-if any such thing has happen
ed-and that this average or univer-
sal ration is far above the average
ration of all the population in times
of peace, both in quantity and quail
ty, we do not have to be possessed of
vivid imagination to picture what is
going to happen to food prices if the
war lasts a year or two longer.

In 600 feet Of water. The deeper
you go the greater pressure. In and
about New York there are many div
ers. They work in the sea, in the
harbor, in the rivers and at times are
summoned to the great lakes. They
have been called at times to go down
into flooded mines. On the authori-
ty of the master diver of America it
can be stated that the greatest depth
he or any person he knows has work
ed in was less than 12O feet. It is
a fact that much greater depth was
reached by the divers who went down
to the submarine lost in Hawaiian
waters and the pearl divers are said
to reach depths of more than 100
feet without the aid of diving appa-
ratus, but the professional diver will
tell you the conditions must be diff
ferent there to what they are here.
Unless the waters are very clear
and the bottom Of the sea perfectly
clean the diver works as does blind

ing in murky waters. He must be a
master of many trades or he can ac-

to cut through iron or steel. He
