Feeding the Army , The London Times points an in- ‘teresting article on the provisioning of the British arsny in South Africa. The basis of the arrangment is that there shall be four months’ supplies always available at the seat of war for 110,000 troops and native transport heipers, and 51,000 horses and mules. At the present moment there are only three months’ supplies on hand in South Africa, but the additions necessary to bring the totals up to the four month's limit are being despatched with speed, and that limit once reached, wiil be maintained as long as may be thought necessary. Of the enormous qaunti- ties of food which go to make up a fonr months’ supply for this number of men and animals few persons can have even the remotesc idea Coffee 12,000,000 pounds, and biscuit stands at there 4c0,000 pounds, tea at 200,- ooo pounds, sugar at 3.200,000 pounds, compressed vegetables at 8co0,000 pounds, and sait at 400,000 pounds. on active service is a preparation of Of this a singie contractor is sending jins at the rate of half a million each month, Ot condensed milk sweeten- ed and unsweetened, the four month’s supplies represent 360,000 tins. Particularly interesting is the item of jam. This commodity was first given to the British troops in the Sou- dan expedition of 1884 and 1g85, and it was afterwards supplied to the It was reported not only was it regarded with favour by the troops, but it was found to be a distinctly healthy food especially on account of its antiscorbutic properties, an important consideration in the ab- sence of a good supply of fresh vege-— | tabl Jam has therefore taken permanent piace as one good thing | among others for troops to fight on, Cs. and the quantities to be kept in South One article of diet which has been - found particularly suitable for trocps meat and vegetables cooked together. + its | Airica) as a four months’ reserve amount to no less than 1.450,000 | pounds, consigned in tins each contain- a single pound. In regard to the s liquids the list provides for 80,000 gallons of rum, 12,000 bottles of vhiskey, 32,000 bottles of port wine, * 40,000 pounds we igh ht of lime, juice t ity of * | arklets ‘for mak-] So tons of alum for purifying spring or tiver water, of which the quality may be doubtful. Of tobacco the quantity sent out by the War Office for the four months is 40,000 pounds, this, of course. quite independent of the amount con- tiibuted by private donors It should be said, however, that the troops have to pay for the tobacco supplied by the ing sod Dg s Ud water, and War Office, doing so at the rate of ts. per pound, so that, no doubt, they would be doubly pleased to get free gifts from the British public. Of ordinary hospital supplies the quantities are on the supposition that 1o per cent. of the troops are always either sick or wounded, th6ugh, happily,this percent- age is never reached. In the way of disinfectants, also, it is assumed during each four months there will- or may—be required 6000 pounds of carbolic acid powder, 20 tons of chlor- ide of lime, 10,000 gallons of izal, and 10 tons of McDougalls disinfecting powder. Still another item on the list is that ot 80,000 pounds of candles.
