The stoe}i:-pot is a very important

This constant supervision of cook

led the lentil h Army to curtail its

ounces a Clay were pinched off the al-
Iewanco of bveadstuffs, except in the
rases of soldiers under nineteen, -who
have the prize appetites of the Ser-
vice. The salt ration was cut down by
' per one fatutlx of an ounce pe n a day,
and a considerable saving was effect-
ed in the consumption of tea.
Kitchen Refuse.
Although this whip -hand over waste
reduced the ration, and eliminated ex-
travagance in the preparation of food
there was still an enormous sacrifice
in the kitchen. Every day in the hun-
dreds
ue
dreds of Army cook -houses the leav-
ings were dumped indiscriminately in-
to the garbage heap. These represent-
ed, in the course of a year, thousands
of tons of bone and fat which had com-
mercial value.
As long ago as 1915 England realized
that she was paying an excessive price
for glycerine, which is one of the es
sentials in the making of high explo

Facts and Figures.
I can give you no better idea of tile
results of these salvage operi,tions
than to say that last year enough gly-
cerine was obtained from Army fat to
provide the: propellent for 18,000,000
eighteen -pound, .shells. This .means
that approximately 1,800 tons of gly-
cerine were obtained from the refuse
of the camp -kitchens,
The gross income from the sale of
by-products alone last year was $3,-
850,000.
3,850,000. .Add"oto this the saving in the
cost of glycerine, and the value of the
reduction In rations brought about by
1 the supervision of cooking and other
eeoeonmies, and yogi get a total saving
estimated to be not less than $30,000,-
000. A -larger phase of this conserva-
tion lies 'in the laot that it enabled a
considerable amount of food to be re-
leased to the general public: At the
samne time, • the Army, and Navy got all

Quebec's Great Drydock.
Quebec's new drydock, which is one
of the largest in the world, is prac-
tically conmplete. It has been under
construction for the past four years.
The structure is situated on the south.
bank of the St. Lawrence river and
has a length of 1,150 feetand a
breadth of 120 feet. It is divided into
two compartments, the inner of which
is 650 feet long. A floating cais-
son closes the interior entrance while
a rolling caisson has been provided
for the muter one. Although four
hours may be required for filling the
dock, its pumping equipment, design-
ed to deliver 6,300 gallons a minute, is
expected to empty it is about two
and a half hours.

Origin of Khaki.
Several years ago in India, a com-
pany of English troops grewweary
of exposing themselves in white cot-
ton uniforms to the fire of the enemy
snipers. So they' adopted nature's good
old law of protective., coloring and
daubed their uniforms with mud from
the banks of ' oneof the sluggish
streams. Those -who diiect the affairs
of the army in India heeicl of this
camouflage and proceeded to make
some interestting. experiments. What
the1r discovered evidently pleased
thein, for eventually a uniform of this
color es a standard was adopted for..
all the troopsin active service in the
East. :Khaki, the name ; given the
color of the new uniforms, is the
Hindu word for muddy.
