Soldier Bakers Turn
Out Million LoaveS Of
Bread Daily in France

American Advance Zone, France.
Two thousand soldier-bakers turn
ing out million pounds Of bread
day--this is the vast and animated
work one sees here at the Amer
lean Army field bakery, which sup
plies the staff of life to the Amer
lean Army in the entire area of the
advanced zone.
1t is a bakery of tents, unlike the
ordinary bakery within brick walls
and with whizzing machinery. but "a
field bakery right out in the open
air and open fields, half military
encampment and half an industrial
city, capable of being picked up and
transported to another point in
few hours.
A city of tents marks the site of
this huge camp bakery, along the
country roadside about a mile out
side of the large cities of the advance
Zone-nameless as are ali places in
the zone of advance. The camp
stretches over many acres, lately
plowed ground of a big farm, but
now humming with the activity of n
huge productive enterprise. Above
the tents one sees countless smoke
stacks of the bake ovens, belching
black smoke, and in the open air
hundreds of soldiers, stripped to the
waist, bending over the huge masses
of dough, and hundreds more ma
nipulating the loaVes in the huge
battery of ovens.
Although the camp is in the fields,
yet spurs of railway have been run
alongside, and each day huge train
goes forward so that every American
division and every camp along the
whole front gets its supply with un-
failing regularity. The train is near
ly half mile long, with some fifty
boxcars loaded solidly from floor to
roof, 10000 pounds to the car, or q
million pounds of bread to the train.
Nearby another train discharges
huge stacks of flour straight from
American wheat fields and milling
centers of the West and Northwest
1t comes in ninety eight and 14O-
pound sacks, of the best standard
grades, for nothing is too good for
the food of the fightingman.
The soldiers laboring among the
flour sacks have now begun to look
themselves like -four sacks. for thew
have adopted a strange uniform in
which the empty flour sacks take the
place of sleeveless shirts. The sacks
are slit at the side for the armholes.
They are of INugh white bagging.
much cooler, the men say, than the
Army undershirt. Each sack has
flaming red and blue letters of its
brand, and so they work resplendent
with the whole range of American
hour brands in their flour sack
shirts.
