to undergo again"
The first part of her letter is dated
November II, 1917, at Moscow. 1t
says:
Yesterday we were able to leave
the hotel in Moscow and are now at
the French military headquarters.
For eight days we were under bonn
bardment and for three hours the
guns of the anarchists were turned
directly on the Hotel National, where
great damage was done. All the
windows were broken and the walls
torn by the big shells.

"The last few days we lived like
rats in the cellar, running from place
to place to safe shelter. During all
the bombardment we did not take our
clothes off and sat up two nights

which have been finished ON a silage
ration and a dry ration. The meat
seems equally bright and the fat as
well intermixed with the lean.
If silage makes up the bulk of the
roughage it will be necessary to haul
hrge amounts of bedding into the
sheds to keep the animals dry, as there
is no waste in silage, or else make a
cement floor and cover with bedding
to absorb the urine and prevent the
animals from slipping and to give
them a warm place to lie down. When
the enormous saving in the quality and
amount of the feed is considered, this
disadvantage does not seem so hard to
overcome by the stockman who has the
capital to put up the silo and pave his
feed sheds or feed lots.
