Method of Supplying Food to Troopson the Battlefield,

How -an army in the /field gets itsfood from day to day i s told' tn teeSeientifte Amertcaia, from whlcn thefbiiowing extracts are taken:

i'he supply train of an Infantry divi-sion carries two days' field and grainrations. In the late afternoon or: atthe end of a march or close of a combat the division*commander directs thefield trains to move ap immediately iiithe rear of the tn?ops and informs thecommanding officers of organizationsthat one day's rations have been or-dered to a designated place. An order-ly is sent to that place to conduct thewagons to the organization. 4fter being unleaded they return immediatelyand join the grouped portion of the ra:tion seetioQ. That same 'night or earlythe following morning the empty wagons are refilled: from the supply, train,and this latter secures a renewal of itssupplies from a designated point on theline of communications or is reioadedfrom a train pertaining to the tine ofcommunicatioBs if the distance fromthe end of that line of the jsone occopied by the troops fei so great as towarrant the use of a train.

"There are two methbd^ of sttppiyinsan army in the field: ).

First.-^By consignments of supptiesforwarded by the service of the line of-communiCiations', .and distributed ASabove indicated

Second.—By utiSizing the resourcesof the country. .

It is generally necessary to utilize tothe fullest extent the food, especiallythe forage, avails We in the theater Ofoperations. In former times the invader possessed the,right of bpoty^anapiHage, the resort to which was mostunfortunte for the army, as It embittered 'the population and com prpmisedthe safety of the troops in ah enemy'scountry, and In the event of any reaior imagined injury being done, them itgave r|se to redress and reprisals;
