■JT"
FORT WORTH.—Nine hundred
skilled cooks, trained for overseas
duty, have been graduated in classes
of 300 from the government school;
fo rcooks and bakers, the largest i
school of its kind in the country,
which is being conducted at Camp
Bowie here under command of Cap
tain Fred H. Morrell.
Students graduating must reach
the following standard: Practical
work, 50 per cent; recitation and
theory, 20 per cent; care of kitchen,!
15 per cent; discipline, 15 per cent
The majority of those graduated
have been taken from the course ]
for second cooks, with first cooks
next in number and mess sergeants |
.third.
The course includes lectures and
instruction on rations .bills of fare, !
component parts, field specifications
preparation, sanitatoin, tempera-1
tures, mess management, stock1
1 sheets, field cooking, recipes and
visits to the packing houses here.
An understanding of food values
most needed to suit conditions ex
i isting in various places is being
j drilled into the students,
i Great attention also is given to
food conservation. The army must
not waste and cooks are taught to
throw all particles of meat and bone
into a 20-gallon pot where the mix
ture is boield and the fat rendered.
The stock is then used for gravies
and soups.
Some companies here require the
i men to weigh what is left on their
plates and the amount is deducted
i from the next meal, thus adjusting
the food needed to their appetites.
| The sanitation course requires
i the mess officers to keep kitchen,
mess hall, refrigerators, ovens and
cooking utensils hygenically clean,
i This applies to tables and floors,
j How to set the tables is an import
ant part of the study.
Experiments are conducted to de
vise means of using substitutes for
| flor, such as oatmeal, cornmeal, and
rice flour. Use of syrup instead of
. sugar wherever possible is encour
, aged.
| “Food wastage,” said Captain
! Morrell, “is not always the fault
o fthe soldier at the mess table. The
cook is often to blame. If he does
not cook the food right, it will be
distasteful to the men and they will
refuse to eat all set before them.
The well cooked meal puts the men
in good spirits as well as helping
them physically.”
A record of food conservation was
kept at the detention camp where
the recruits are gartered and fed
under the direction of Captain Mor
rell. Of 72,170 pounds of flour
allowed the camp in fourteen days,
only 36,105 pounds were used and
yet every man had all the bread
he desired.
HORSE STEALING GROWS
AS PRICES INCREASE
ZURICH.—Horse-stealing in Vi-1
enna has increased to such an ex
tent that' several firms have been i
forced to give up business. A good
wagon team is now worth from
$5,000 to $6,250. Some firms have i
lost as many as a dozen horses, as [
well as wagons, and thefts continue ;
daily in the streets. The stolen j
horses are usually sold to slaughter
houses. 1
A recent order forbids the publi-1
cation of market prices of horses'
for slaughter, but the last reports
priced them at $1,000 to $1,500 i
