One hundred and fifty thousand lbs
of beef (75 tons), 100000 pounds of
flour Goo tons), 10000 pounds of po-
tatoes Us tons), $4,000 pounds of SUI
gar, III 1-2 tons), 10000 dozen eggs,
10000 pounds of bacon GO tons), 10000
pounds of ham go tons), 10000 pounds
of mutton Us tons), 10000 pounds of
butter &c tons), 10000 pounds of beans
C tons) 10000 pounds of dried fish C
tons), $4,000 pounds of onions.
The field bakery will turn out Is 900
pounds of bread daily There will be
approximately $500 horses and mules.
The forage provided for these animals
for two weeks amounts to $4,000
