Machine Gun's Terrible Destruc-
tion of Life.
Many reports of the war in LU -
,rope speak of the terribly destruct-
ive fire of the machine grins, and in
view of these events the following
facts from the special war edition
of the 'Scientific ,American are of
unusual interest :
With each regiment of infantry.
there belongs -a platoon or com-
pany equipped with two or four ma-
chine guns. These machine guns
generally fire the same ammunition
as is used for•the rifle of the army,
but fire it semi-antomatically from
clips or belts containing 30 to 250
rounde each.
The most notableof these machine
guns are the Hotchkiss (French)
and Vickers (English), the former
firing ,from clips cdntaining 30
cartridges, and the latter firing
from belts containing 250 cart-
ridges. The rate of fire of these
guns is about 400 to 500 shots per
minute. '
These rifles are transported
either on light wheeled mounts or
packed on tnid.es or horses. Their
prime object is to be able to take
up a position and hatable to deliver.
an overwhelming volume of fere
-where needed.

11,25Q IONS OF FOD A DAY
WHAT THE _GIU?AT EUROPEAN
ARMIES LAT.
The :Problem of Peeling Soldiers
Grows Harder Wit$ •
Every: Day.
The soldiers who are fighting in
the many ai•mies.of Europe eat 1I,-
250 tons of food each day, These
figures are biased on the allowances
made by each country for each man
in war time and averaged by .an
authority on commissariat, says 'the
New York Sun,
It is figured 'that the average for
each man is 2% pounds of food a
day. It has been stated that there.
are from 8,000,000 to 16,000,000 men
now on the ibatltle lines. Just what
the real figures are it is impossible
to determine, but'10,000,000 is
pldbably nearly correct.
A box car 00 an American rail-
road will carry about twenty tons.
This means that to thianaportt the
food of one day for' 10,000,000 men
560 of these cars would be needed.
If these 560 cars were divided into
trains of 'forty cars each it would
mean fourteen trains drawn by the
largest engines in the country.
Own System.
Each nation has its own system
of feeding its men, and now it is
realized everywhere that to enable
the men to fight at their best they
must be fed properly. ,hn•gland,
like the United States, feeds its
army from behind. That is, ib sends
food trains to follow each division,
and these trains, equipped with the
different foods, deal out to each
regiment provisions, which are
served to the then or are cooked
and served from .the kitchens. The
French also furnish their men with
food, especially when they are
fighting on the defensive, but when
they are in an onemy's country
they follow largely the system of
the Germans, that :the country
should support the army as far as
possible, The Germans in the pre-
sent war have'been able to follow
this pion, so that it is probable th
they have not had to draw ver
argely on their reserve stores.
• Catering a Seience.
of :their -food. It has been said that
the British .soldier in the field lives
well and after; has what might be
termed luxuries. lie gets his meat,
12 ounde,s being alio-Wed each man,
Then he -has 16 ounces of potatoes,
8 ounces of fresh vegetables when
they can be procured, 3% ounces of
milk, an ounce and .a half of sugar,
anal a `Quarter of an titin e h f
French Get Witte.
The French ration is somewhat
different. It consists of 32 ounces of
bread, .9% ounces of meat, 3X
ounces of fresh vegetatbles and 1,
ounce of sugar. The French soldier
also gets, whenever possible, about
hall a pint of red wine and coffee.
The daily field :ration of the Ger-
man army is 26 ounces of fresh
bread or 17 ounces of biscuit, 13
ounces of raw meat, fresh or salt-
ed, or 7 ounces' of smoked beef,
pork, mutton, bacon or meat saus
age,. 4 ounces of rice or 8 ounces of
pulse or •flour or 53 ounces of pota-
toes, coffee or tea, sugar and salt.
These various ingredients are not
doled out to the men to cook for
themselves, bub :the food train uses
:them to make stews and to be cook-,
ed in different ways and then when
they are cooked the men are serv-
ed. Each soldier has what is known
as •a haversack ration and an emer-
gency ration,
Stews For Russian.
With :the Russian there is again
a different sye�teun, The Russian
soldier lives on bread and stews.
The'field kitchen follows the army,
and the system works so well that
it is always on :hand when wanted,
and the soldiers always have stews,
coffee or tea and :bread. The stews
are 'matte of everything that is fur-
nished by the Government — meat,
beans, rice, and fresh vegetable

In the German army erbwurst is

Meal, fat bacon, herbs, onions,

sausages. - It is mannfaotured in
Goveminent factories,. and the se-
cret of its :manufacture was pur-
at phased by ;the Government front the
'Y inventor fox $25,000. It is not gen-
erally liked, however, !by the men,
rand its chief value hes in +the fact
that it is m1ol'e • easily transported
e 'than most other ,corms of food and
�- that it is very easily prepared for
ase:
e It is generally conceded by all
g food experts that :the rations of a
a,b soldier should be as varied as•pos-
t si�ble and that the mea while as-
1 tiyely in :the field should be furnish -
1 ed with meals that iyill be as pleas-
• ing as possible, and in this way 'the
s. iBiitish and the United States
ar,mie,s perhaps 'Lead those of other
nations,
Catering for the army has beeom

is absolutely necessary that the

for Germany's Suicide.
Though Grand Admiral von Tir-
pitz, the long grey -bearded Teuton.
with the shining bald head, :Who is
head of the German Admiralty, has
Tot years planned the invasion of
Great Britain, he did not mind tak-
ing advantage of English educa-
tional facilities, and all his ithild-
ren hal=e been educated in the
Motherland, He has been ;behind
the refusal of every invitation from
Great Britain bo come to an agree-
ment ou armaments, .and into the
mind of the very susceptible Kaiser
he has implanted the idea that Ger-
many would be as invincible on sea
as a month ago she thought herself
on dant]- After the Emperor he is
the strongest man in the Father-
land, and he will share with his im-
perial master the infamy of having
accomplished Germany's suicide,
To tattle to, Tirpitz would seem
the inose harmless man in the
world—ready to answer any ques-
tions and to give his views on Eng-
land with disarming frankness. He
has always admitted that the :Brit-
ish navy was the finest in the world
not only in numbers, which is, of
course, obvious, but in efficiency,
and he gave orders that it was to
be sedulously copied in all respects.
Also to be quite sure ,that nothing
was wanting in the compliment he
organized a far-reaching system of
espionage in British home ports,
which happily was frustrated by
the vigilance of the police.• For
years in the German navy they
ca]'led hint "Der Meister" (the
piaster), in tribute to his compet-
ency as a naval organizer; - now
they call him "Tirpitz the Eter-
nal," because when at the Kaiser's
whirs other .greatest statesmen have
come and gone be alone has surviv-
ed. What will they call him after'
the Fatherland's precious 'fleet,
which the so largely helped to
create, has been placed beyond
mischief ?
