Trench and camp. ([Admiral, Md.) 1917-1919, 1917-10-24

To those who dislike that intruder
into the English speech. ''profteering,"
there Is at hand the more formidable
word ''profltmongering." For good old
ssmonger," which merely means 'deal-
err" has its roots deep in the past--the
shady past In Sanscrit it means Ito
deceive: and although there are hon.
est mongers of fish or iron, the prac-
tees of too many other sorts of deal
ers have deeply tainted the word, as
all scandalmongers know. Trading and
cheating are sometimes closely relat-
ed, and even Ireland's Great Book of
the Law" gave legal sanction to the
kinship.
That venerable document defines the
three rents of land-the fair rent
(Which a member OF the clan paid), this
stipulated rent and the rack rent, i'm
posed upon the stranger. The stran@-
er suffered so much under this ancient
village community law that the mon
GER in time became a somewhat dis
reputable person.

TARIFFS AFTER THE WAR.
Plans Of Many Countriesto Protect
and Encourage Their Industries.

Readjustments of tariffs are in prog
ress all over the world. Italy this
month begins consideration Of new
after-war program OF industrial de-
velopment. At Vienna a conference is
now In progress to determine what
Germany and Austria will do at the
expiration of present commercial agree
ments in January, 1913. India has In
creased protective duties. in a differ
emit way from other British dominions.
which are working under systems Of
emergency sur-taxes on imports. Ar
gentina has accomplished an upward
revision through raising the Official
valuation on goods on which ad
valorem duties are charged. There
have been legislative enactments bring
Ing higher duties also. Other South
American countries have added to both
import and export tariffs. In fact, the
whole world is working on q higher
tarin basis.
est II is not a, war tariff proposed
there. but permanent machinery for
carrying out national policy of high
tndustrializatiOn. A commission will
report at the end OF this month the
details Of a scientific conventional tariff.

which Italy will cOncede after diplO-
matte negotiation, in exchange for
other nations concessions in COM
mercial treaties. II the recommended
lions or the commission are adopted
and they probably will be, since italy
has given formal notice of ahroration
or all special tariff treaties to prepare
Tor just such system, Italy will be
In q position to act instantaneously,
Wnen occasion arises. with either q
friendly or an aggressive commercial
attitude toward any other nation. Eng
lan0S government can very quickly
prepare to do likewise when the rirlt
time comes. and probably France also.
IN every european country the matter
or future tariffs and commercial treaties

| on a tentative basis
The politics Of tariffs and the conn
mercial and industrial effects OF tarff9.
are bound to become very important
subjects whenever the time OF nnakinR
peace approaches, whether il be simply
| military peace or real one There
| Is now every indication that since the
entry OF the United States into the
war change has taken place in the
the character OF the future interna-
tional arrangements that are to be
made particularly arrangements Of
tariffs. This change Is reflected in the
public statements OF men who win
have the strong part In the recon-
structive statesmanship to come. A

as Is humanity possible animafes the
public statements of the statesmen 81
all the allies. Il now begins to appear
that II the allies win success decisive
enough to make 10 possible for these
statesmen to make practical plans for
carrying out these purposes, a con-
scientiOus attempt is going to be made
to find some way in which the different
countries can individually have pro-
i tective tarin for their national indus
tries and still cooperate.

AN Cots Of Straw.

The cots may be built at the same
time as the huts themselves: they are
SO. In fact, In the German army. II
prisoners reports may be taken with
out dispute.
In the Austrian army. again. these
huts are Invariably built in circular
shape. though of the same straw ma
terial. The French prefer to carry In
wooden planks and build of wood. even
for summer camps.
Winter huts. again. are OF various
types, but their construction IL much
the same as that OF the ordinary hut,
with the exception that stronger beams
and heavy. sloping roofing are em-
ployed.
The latter is especially necessary. be-
cause layer Of earth usually overlios
the wooden or straw lattice, and the
snow that comes to lie on 1t must have
a slope to coast down to the ground,
lest IL make the whole thing Overbear-
ingly heavy.

bles, leaving only a burrowed opening
for entrance and air.
For cooking, trenches one and one
half to two feet in depth and three and
one-quarter feet wide are used. In one
side wall an average Of Ave holes are dug
and the excavated earth is thrown up In
front as q windshield. If there are no
buildings near which contain kitchens,
hearths are built of brick or of lime
stone and mortar Three masonS can
build such a hearth in one day with
six hundred bricks and cover the hole
with q protective roof. For single
company there must be three caldrons
of IFS quarts capacity each.
How Field Ovens Are Built.
Field ovens can be built, if necessary.
by the field bakery column, and for this
purpose the column always carries with
1t an iron frame upon which the bricks
can be laid. In the Prussian army this
frame is always built in SO firmly that
the bricks must be broken up before 1t
can be released upon evacuation OF the
camp, but the allies have these frames
only as false works." which can be
slipped in and out OF the oven even
though 1t is q harder piece OF build
ing to accomplish.
The water supply of camp Is
matter of great Importance. Prac-
tically nothing but running water can
be used. For the German army the
up stream water il used for drinking
purposes and the down stream water
for watering the horses and for bath
ing.
Signs to Indicate Water.
Suitable signs notify the men which
water Is safe to drink and which 10

low or narrow streams basins are dug
or small dams erected so that there
may be q reservoir Of ample dimen-
Si0nS.
Pipes may be driven IL water lies
at q reasonable depth; not more than
twenty feet, say. Depending on their
size, these pipes will deliver from four
to twenty-five gallons Of water . min

Wind Screens as Camp Huts.

Camp huts are most easily made by
fitting two such wind screens against
each other. the angle at the ridge about
80 degrees.
On an-average the height OF the ridge
from the ground Is nine feet four
inches and the interior will have q
breadth of ten feet Ave inches, or room
enough for two rows OF cots and an
aisle between yard in width. Boards
are laid on the poles and covered. as q
closed: the other Is provided with a
door.
Draining bitches are dug all around
the hut to keep 1t dry. while earth Is
heaped about the bottom to keep out
the draft.
Such huts are usually not less than
twenty feet long, meant to accOmmo-
date twenty men, though they rarely
run over thirty or thirty-five feet in
length.

racks with vertical side walls.
These are built with buried posts or
stanchions. JotstS or Joined boards NAV
be used for the posts. The walls are
boarded up both from without and
within. and the hollow spaces between
are filled with turf. moss, earth. or
whatever is handy, to protect against
the cold. as well as to stop dying bits
OF shrapnel. In deep winter Ii Ia often

With tho entire country dotted with
military encampments, there IL much
curiosity among those who have not
yet visited a cantonment as to what the
new soldier cities look like, and how the
men are cared for.
And what viii the camps be like when
the men reach the other side? There Il
no answer for it, excepting to point TO
those which the allied armies have al
ready erected for their men. The Amer
lean Army will have homing places there
which probably will not differ by much
from those Of the French and English

Of three feet, the piles being connected by
ropes Of straw or grass. Against these
ropes branches and the like are piled
SO as to make wall, held in place firmly
by the building of layer OF earth at the
foot Of the row. If long poles are OBJ

can be tied together and supported by the
poles as a protection against the wind
