SELF HELPS for the
NEW SOLDIER
By United States Army Officer
THE SOLDIER ON THE MARCH.

THE SOLDIER ON THE MARCH.
If there are important reasons why
soldier in camp or in barracks should
look to his health, these reasons are
infinitely more important when on the
march. For If sick soldier is drain
on the regimental resources while in
camp, in the field, if he has to be car
ried in an ambulance, or sent back to
the hospital in the care of another sol
der, he becomes an utter encum-
brance.
1t is for this reason that the phys
ical examinations are now so exacting,
in order to weed out all those predis-
posed to break down under marching
conditions. Yet it is not necessary for
a man to be actually sick for him to
become a dead weight on a body of
troops. If he does not take care of his
feet, he will become fully as useless.
One half-inch blister may, for march
ing purposes. turn a six-foot soldier
into an invalid.
In the first place, the shoes should
should neither be too wide nor too
short. Sores and blisters should be
promptly dressed during a halt. At
the end of the march the feet should
be bathed and dressed, and, if prac-
ticable, the shoes should be changed.
A soldier should under no circum-
stances, however, go barefoot, for his
feet would swell and give him in
creased difficulty as soon as he starts
to march again.
| One of the points which cannot be
emphasized too strongly is that water
should not be drunk on the march. A
soldier may take an occasional swal-
low from his canteen, rinse out his
mouth and then expel the water, but
if he drinks outright-as he may do
freely at the end of the march-the
| consequences are disastrous.
One National Guard regiment on the
Mexican border last year started upon
a six-mile march. The column was a
! shining succession of uplifted can
teens. Before five miles had been COW
cred, 20 men were stretched out by the
roadside in collapse. Another Ma
tional Guard regiment, in which the
men drank without restraint on hot
march-even scooping up water from
puddles, lost approximately two hun
dred out of the column on that day.
A soldier should never sleep on tn
ground. He should always have his
rubber poncho, or at least his blanket
beneath him, and, whenever possible
bed of straw or leaves beneath poI
cho or blanket. If the dampness G
the soil entered his system, he woul
contract cold and rheumatism and bt
come, as with all sick men, heav
urag upon his organization.
Just as it is essential, for the SAX
of his health that soldier keep Scrl
pulously clean, so for the protection {
the general health, camp or barrack
must also be rendered immaculate. A
trash, even small pieces of pape
should be swept from the floor of tn
tent or quarters, or "policed" from tn
company street. For trash breeds il
sects and insects carry disease. A
pools and damp places near the cam
should be drained, so that mosquitoe
may have no place to multiply. Flo
this reason soldiers are supplied wit
} mosquito bars, as a protection agains
purveyors of fever. All camp refus
is either buried in sink or burned i
an incineratOr.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Denver.-The long appropriation
bill. for maintenance of the various
state departments, was introduced in
the House. 1t carries total appro-
priation of $1,S66,355. which is about
$272,O00 more than the same bill car
ried two years ago when introduced
This increase is made up principally
of the sum of $4,000 granted to the
governor for the mobilization OF the
national guard in the event OF war
with Germany and $10o.25s.33 for the
Industrial Commission. The appropri-
alton for the latter commission two
years ago was carried In a. separate
bill and SO was not included in the
long appropriation bill.
In addition to these two items prac-
tically the only increases are 100000
to the governor for liquor law en-
forcement instead of $4,000, as
granted two years ago. and $4,000 ad-
ditional appropriation for the Utilities
Commission
The sums granted the different de-
Dartmpnts are as follows.
