FEEDING CITIES
IS Big PROBLEM
Study Of Some Things Which Af-
feet Final Delivery of Food
to Consumer.
QUESTION OF: RAPID TRANSIT
Fresh Meats and Other Perishable
Products From Farms Must Be
Speeded Up at Every Stage
Delay Means Shrinkage.

One of the fundamental factors in
the problem Of feeding towns and cit
les is that of transportation. Since
city dwellers are so dependent upon
transportation for their foodstuffs, it
may be interesting to study some of
the things which affect the final deliv-
cry of food and especially meats to the
consumer.
Transportation difficulties begin with
the stock raiser, whether he is a
rancher in the West, corn belt farm
er or other agriculturist who produces
live stock for food. In the early days,
before our railroads were in existence
or before they were the principal
factors in getting stock to market,
cattle, hogs and sheep had to be
driven or hauled long distances to
reach a selling point or point from
which they could be shipped by boat
or rail. This was a very expensive
way of moving stock; it not only took
a long time but the loss of animals
and the loss of flesh by these animals
was also considerable, even though the
values per pound were very little COM
pared with today.
Troubles of Stock Grower.
The first trouble the stock grower
or dealer today has in getting his
stock to market is to get to railroad
point to ship his animals to one of
the various large stockyards to be
sold. Bad roads, adverse weather and
perhaps a long drive or haul to the
shipping point all affect the length of
time required; then there may be a
temporary shortage of cars and stock
must be held in the railroad stock
yards and fed until cars are provided.
Once loaded into cars, however, there
is a special effort made to get to the
market in the shortest possible time.
Delay means abnormal shrinkage; if
the cars are on the road SO hours the
stock must be unloaded for feed and
water; or the market may drop sud-
denly; hence the necessity for speed.
Shipping Fresh Meats.
In order to ship fresh meats sue
cessfully they must be thoroughly
chilled before loading and then trans
ported in refrigerator cars, especially
during the warmer weather, although
this practice is followed the year
round. These cars have ice tanks at
each end, (which are filled with ice
and a percentage of salt and the car
chilled to about 35 to SO degrees Fab
renheit. Also they are provided with
ventilating or circulating systems in
order to keep the temperature in all
parts of the car as nearly uniform as
possible. In making long shipments,
and especially during the warmer
months, it is necessary to ice the car
one or more times en- route to keep
the temperature as low and as con-
slant as possible. Even then on
account of bad weather, wrecks or
any other condition that causes undue
delay, the meat may not be in first
class condition on it's arrival at the
destination and must therefore be sold
quickly even at some sacrifice in price.

lusfX Old Ace.

What time of life can be compared
to the time of lusty old age? Does
white hair betoken failing powers?
Nay, no more than the snow that
crowns the giant old pine betokens
any weakness or decay of the tree.
The head and the hairs of our coming
Redeemer shall be "white like wool,
as white as snow" Herein is the
mystery of the strength of old age.
AS is a lusty tree, so is lusty old
man. He knoweth the secrets of
heaven and earth, and he beareth
fruit to the last. He dieth not easily,
but like great oak, whose roots go
deep into the earth; he is laid low
only by mighty cataclysm of nature.

An account of how soldiers are fed
Mt sea is given In the daily newspaper
published on a transport:
"Outside of providing 100000 meals
at sea, the mess officer of the ship has
very little to do. Very little.
He is only called upon to provide,
by the regulations, 180 different vari-
eties of food. That's 8ll. Every try
to order 1SO different things to eat?
Yet this is the authentic list.
"The food needed to feed several
thousand men at sea ranges beyond
the glutton's dreams. You get the an
swer in the ship down below the water
line, where 1920 'loaves of bread have
been baked in one day, and where you
stumble over every variety, from co.
900 pounds of beef to 10000 eggs, or
a compartment of brick ice cream in
n-degree-above-zero vault.
"And If this doesn't suit, you can
bump along into 1924 pounds of po-
tatoes, 100 pounds Of ham and bacon,
1900 pounds of butter, $500 pounds OF
sugar. and 61,500 pounds of flour.
IF you can't get meal out of this
you can fall back on 1900 pounds of
sausage, 5000 pounds of sauerkraut,
260O0 pounds of apples, 1880 pounds
of oranges, and 4,2OO pounds of onions.
And this leaves out 1000 pounds of
jam and 9,4OO pounds Of lima and navy

The dental requirements OF an army
of more than 100000 men can now be
met by the present force Of the dental
corps of the United States army. Ex-
aminations have been closed and no
further additions will be made to the
corps for some time. The number OF
dental officers has expanded since war
was declared from So to $50. Com
missions were offered to 5.467 dentists
in ali parts of the country, and all but
271 were accepted.
The average number of tooth fill
ings in the army ranges from 225.OOO
to 25O,0O0 a month. Special dental
infirmaries have been established in
the camps and captonments, to which
newly inducted soldiers are sent for
examination shortly after arrival in
the camps.
A school for dental instruction has
been established, where 85 officers are
assigned each month to take the two
months course.

The box-car situation is better at
present than it has been at any time
during the last three years, according
to advice received by the department
of agriculture from the railroad ad-
ministration.
On May l box cars began to move
into wheat territory, and wheat-carry-
ing roads are expected to have on
their lines more than the normal
amount of cars owned by them. Cars
are being parked in wheat-loading ter
ritory, which was impossible last year.
The railroad administration will con-
tinue to move cars into wheat dis
tricts as long as there is any indica-
tion that additional cars will be
needed.

not sufficient.
The question Of the shipment of par

such articles had reached such point
that French railroads were unable to

of parcel-post mail, and found that the
articles being sent not only, In the
main, were absolutely unnecessary, but
undesirable. The investigation showed
that the amount of such mail had
reached a total of 100000 pounds q
week, and was steadily increasing.
Relatives and friends, according to
recent statement by the war depart
ment, will find they often can do a
greater service to soldiers by sending
them money for the purchase of ar
