Saves Army Waste at Camps

the department has saved upwards of
100000 on waste materials.
The garbage from the mess of from
10 to Is soldiers, it Is estimated, will
feed one hog a day. Hogs will gain on
an average of one pound day on this
ration for the first $50 days, govern
ment experts have determined. The
refuse from each cantonment will be
sufficient to feed 1000 hogs q day.
This means an increase of 1,460, 900
pounds Of pork for the country each
year.
Colonel Ellison has injected into
camp life q certain class distinction
in the disposal Of garbage. At the
camps the care of the garbage is a
regular ceremonial. Waste material
is divided into classes, and a special
receptacle Is provided for each class.
There is can for bones, one for rope
and Irvine, another for rags, one for
paper, one for fats and tallow, one
for bottles. one for tin cans, another
for sweeping and pieces Of tobacco,
and still another for garbage.
Practically all of the refusal is sold.
Cans, bottles. bones, fats, paper and
rags have a ready market, and the
garbage proper is carted away for a
hogs banquet. The worthless refuse Is
burned in order to adhere to the strict
sanitary regulations Of the camps.

foods have process of putrefaction
which Is peculiar to that food other
kinds of foods ferment but such food
as meat. fish, eggs, cheese, and such
protein vegetables as peas and beans
decompose and the by-products formed
are more or less poisonous to human
beings.
The difference between fermenta-
ton and putrefactiOn is shown In the
digestion. Vegetable foods may fer
ment and cause irritation but with
animal food the irritation may be in
the form of poiSOns which are taken
up by the blood stream just as is the
food, these pOisOns cause autointOxi-
cation. The vast majority of people
who suffer In this way, suffer because
of Overeating. An eatless meal once
or twice q week, would be not inap-
prOpriate TO follow n wheatless day.
Fletcher, the dietician, in his won
derful books on living has discovered
that the simple art of mastication,
which is a much sighted II not lost
one, Is the secret of good health. Our
loyalty in these stirring times may
teach us the value of lessening our
food supply. The over-padded indiv-
idual who denies herself candy and
sweets because of her patriotism win
be rewarded in the happy results to
herself. This will be true in cutting
out One-seventh OF our meat, One-sixtb
of our fat, and one-fourth each of
sugar and white -four. This self-de-
NAL will not only help us physically
but its influence must be felt I'm other
ways. The individual who cannot say
mo" for his stomach's sake will not
stand very firm on higher demands.
There is one important thing that
all mothers Of growing children should
consider, that they should not be re-
stricted as to food, for they need IL
for the daily activities and to promote
growth.

Uncle Sam 10 Not Going to Deny His

Americans in France Know Every
Part Of Weapons Except
Secret of "75."
TRAINING IS MOST THOROUGH
No Stint Of Ammunition for Practice
Work-Target Shooting In the
Morning, Machine-shop In
struetion in the Afternoon,
Is the Program.

An American Artillery Camp In
Fnnce.-Firing stops at eleven O'Clock
every morning. By that time every
gun captain has finished his allotment
of shells for the day. 1t does happen
sometimes that gun breaks down,
and in that case it's shells are distrib-
uted among it's neighbors. There is

eminent failing to take advantage of
the prodigal son privileges which war
has given him. He is right, of course.
The more shells he shoots the sooner
his battery will be fit for action, writes
Herbert Corey In the Chicago News.
The better part of an hour is used
In getting into camp for luncheon. The
meal itself is over at one o'clock. Then
business starts again. The afternoon
program never Includes firing. but deals
with the fundamentals Of learning how
to fire. The men take the guns apart
and put them together again. They
know just what part each bit Of metal
plays, so that when Ii ceases to func-
ton the gunners will know what Is
wrong. The officers are at work at

On the credit side of the account 1t
may be stated that the men are of an
they are superior in the raw to any
European organization l have seen,
and l have seen them all except the
Roumanians.
But the artillery organizations are
suffering from the handicap of Il lack
of previous experience in bulk. The
artillerist must be highly skilled spe-
cialist. The greater part of the Off
GERS ut this camp are either new TO
the army or new to the service with
the guns. The work of development is
further checked by the shortage of
officers previously referred to-a short
age which is added to by the new de-
mands made by modern war.
More officers must be detached as
observers than had previously been
the case. The training of these Off
GERS necessarily removes them from
immediate contact with their units,
where they are sadly needed. They
are being taught aerial observation in
balloon and airplane at time when
under the previous scheme of organi-
zation they should be serving with their
men. This is not sounding a note of
pessimism. The progress made is mag
nificent. 1t is obvious that q more rap
id progress would be made if the regi-
mental quota of officers were filled.
