Army Prefers Bacon to Salt Pork Slabs Washington.—The army has just moved to benefit both the soldier’s .palate and the farmer’s pocketbook by decreeing for its troops the kind of bacon that curls and crisps in stead of the familiar slabs of salt pork. Regulations provide that the ra tion for each soldier must include six ounces of bacon. For years a part of the daily fare has been dry salt pork, generally cooked with its equally well-known comrade-at- arms, beans. Recent revision of the regula tions permits substitution of sugar- cured bacon, and the quartermas ter corps is laying in a large sup ply. Troops stationed abroad will continue to get salt pork, however, as it is particularly adapted for shipment Into warm climates. Moore—Horton.
