Homemade Fireless Cookers and
Their Use" is the title of late Farm.
ers' Bulletin that is especitsly adapted

40 AMERICAN BASE
HOSPITALS IN FRANCE SOON

In view Of the fact that nearly a
scors of Canon City and Fremont
county boys have volunteered their
services to the government for duty
with the Red Cross hospital corps, il
will be interesting to the public to
know as much about base hospitals
as possible, for ii is with such insti.
tutions that they will be chiefly EN-
ployed in the zone of warfare. Siy
OF these base hospitals. with a full
complement OF surgenos, nurses, doc.
tors and enlisted men were sent
abroad for service in France early in
May and constituted the first branch
of the United States army to go to
Europe following the declaration OF
war with Germany.
Forty additional base hospitals
have been ordered into active service
since that time and are likely to be
on the way to the front before the
end of the current month France
alone is said to have requested tho
United States government for 100 full
ly equipped base hospitals and a com
plete personnel for their operation
To comply with this alone wonld

hospital work Of the army can only
be appreciated by the members of the
