P Is the pressure and ss.Ooo pounds per minute represent one horse power. Working out the three pressures or- tained, the horse powers required are 3, Is and 5.5. respectively. It is nc-s ticed that the horse power required increases very rapidly with the speed and if a speed of so miles per hour be taken. the pressure becomes 2I0 pounds and horse power required 4", This last condition could occur if the car were running at 30 miles per hour against wind going at 30 miles per hour. This would result in the same wind pressure that would be had by driving at 60 miles per hour without 4 head wind.

NO WASTE ALLOWED AT CAMP WHEELER
Reclamation Service Saves Thousands of Dollars in
 Old Material

Camp Wheeler. Macon, Ga-. April z. Special )--Work will begin early this week on the reclamation warehouse. which will be used to take care of the growth and development of the reclama tfon service Col. c. J. Nelson has in op- eration at the present time. a service that is saving the government hundreds of dollars a day.
 In this reclamation service there is a tailor shop. where clothing that has been set aside is cleaned, pressed and to all appearances made good as new. There are F sewing machines in the tailor shop Of the reclamation bureau and eight pressers and cleaners, turning out about 15o remade suits a day.
 There is cobbler shop that is kept going 24 hours a day. Night and day three shifts of soldier cobblers are kept busy repairing shoes that had been cast aside as being of no further use. Before Colonel Neson established ths reclama- found their way to the scrap heap, put now tSe pairs day are remade as good as new.
 Many men are in the reclamation yard, which has the appearance of city dump These men are kept busy every day as- sorting the rubbish turned over by the supply companies from each unit in the camp. Tons and tons of wire from the bales of hay are baled and sold to a junk dealer. In the same way all the scrap is baled and sold for s7.5o a ton. Even pa per sacks are saved.
 The price of all sorts of material has advanced to such an extent since the war began that the quartermaster finds it profitable to assort all the camp junk carefully and in the reclamation yard one may find anything from tuneless bugles to large parts of 'flivvers.'
