Tho American army In Ba? rope could bn fed and clothed acd a)) its creature comforts looked after for three months If not another pound o! supplies Was secured. This waa the statement made hero by ?Ulcers of the army quartermaster's department, which directs this mammoth work oi supplies. It gives an Idea of the vast stock of reserve resources stored la the mile? of warehouses stretching from the coast Inland to the fighting line, and It is a comforting assurance, too. that this huge reserve will be kept up through the coming winter period, so that the American soldier's warmth, as well as hfs food and clothing, will bo fully looked after. 8ome Big Job. ; : It is a huge undertaking to feed a minion iben even for a single day? s /million men scattered to a thousand points, in treuches, on battlefields and Camps, along 800 miles of front and foi a depth of 000 miles. And when are added housing and clothing and the period Is extended through the win ter months of cold and frost, with the prospect that another million or twc of men may be headed this way before long?with these elements one get* some Idea* of the magnitude of the supply problem for a million or mort . men. Here at the center of the system Where the receipts are regulated and the <JlRtrIbutlon made, there was an opportunity of learning some of the details of how the system operates. In the food branch alone it takes over 4,000,000 pounds of food CVer> dhy to feed the army. Thig^pjrodl gious daily consumption of food em braces 1,000 pounds of flour baked into a million pouuds of bread ever; day, 875,000 pounds of fresh beef. 875, 00O pounds of potatoes, 200.00f pounds Of sugar and 125,000 pounds oi tomatoes. The pepper and salt for ? single day is 42,500 pounds, Army coffee Is roasted at tho rate of 70,000 pounds a day, and It takes 20,000 pounds of solidified nlcohoj tc * cook this coffee through the month. The beef Is the bulkiesf^roducl used each day, ahd^. occupies a daily space of 45,000 cubic feet, or : about the dimensions of a business block, of solid meat. Flour comes next, requir ing 25,000 cubic feet Of dally space, and potatoes about the same. A Few Dally Itemf. These are only a few of tho main items. But the list runs all through the many requirements of the over sea army ration, with vast quantities In each case. Here are some of the other daily items : BacOn, 225?M)0 pounds; beans, ? 75,000 pounds; rlct, 50,000 pounds; onions, 250,000< pounds ; evaporated fruit, 70,p00 pounds;. Jam, 70,000 pounds; milk, 62,500 pounds; vinegar, 40,000 pounds; lard, 40;000 pounds; butter, 81,000 pounds; syrup, 40,000 pounds. v These being included in tne over sea ration, every one pf the million men Is entitled to 'his full allowance, and It must go forward to him wher ever he is. So that besides the vast dnHy stock there is the question of, unfailing daily delivery, first by rail ways nnd camion trains, and then to the individual soldier. Besides this 4,000,000 pounds of food moving forward daily . to the troops, each man carries with him two days' emergency Nation, 5 pounds to the man, an additional 5,000,000 pounds of food for an army of a million men. Of the emergency ration, carried on the baek, there Is outstanding every day 2,000, 000 pounds of corned beef and 2,000, 000 pounds of hardtack, 800,000 pounds of Kugar, 62,500 pounds of coffee, 20, 000 pounds of salt, and 500,000 pounds of aolidifled alcohol for heating and cooking while on march. . YANKEE BAPTIZED ON A RUN r !- ' T".; Made Chaplain Hurry Because Ht Wanted to Catch Up With Hia Company. With the American Army at the Marne. ? A Jong line of dust-covered Yankees were pushing their way through a shell-battered village near Chateau Thierry toward a ridge of hilln from whlrh came the rumble ?f artillery fire. At a crossroads ;tfcey came upon a chaplain, waiting beside a broken-down sldccur. One of the doughboys fell out of line and walked rapidly np to the crossroads. "Say, Chaplain, baptize the quick, will you?" be urged. "We'll be In the line to-night T The' chaplain walked away from the sidecar. i "Do you believe" he began.

GET SALT FROM SEA W Old Method of Obtaining Ns?< Lift It Mil Practiced li ?? Various Pieces.

For many centuries pmc t ifa 1 1. v nil tlie ealt used by the human , race wan procured by tl?e evaporation of sea water. This method of obtaining salt la at 111 employee! in many localities Where the conditions are favorable. A flat stretch of sea coaat ami a hot aud dry climate are necessary If salt la to fee got from aea water. An Ideal locality for this i ml us try la the coast on the Day of Cadis, Spain. The sea water Is allowed to Collect In shallow baslne, barely above high- 1 water marlb As (the water evaporates the m wwr water crystallise out and form a crust, which Is removed and shoveled In small heaps. There the salts undergo j the first stage of purification. The edible sslt la drained from the other wait#, which constitute the great er part of the Impurities. The edible salt crystallUes out first, while the other salts retain tne water und form a concentrated brine which is allowed to run into ditches dug for that pur pose. The partly purified salt Is then gath ered Into large heaps. Occasional rains wrfsh out the more easlfy solublo Impurities, and the hot sun dries the salt on the surface of the pile. Al though It sUU contains about 15 per cent of Impurities It is shipped In large quantities without further refin ing. ?: It I* estimated that five per cent of the inhabitants of all the countries now at war art* under arms, tfyc percentage ranging from OL' in the case of Liberia, to 1ft in the fane- of Germany, which has .made by fat th#. ]ieavie,st call on it* 1 malt' IWpulatlOH^^M Wants?
