And these 5,500,000 men is but a fourth of the Army we expect eventually to have in Europe. •This Army will eat 13 350,000 pounds of beef a month; L 375 000 cans of cornbeef and 2,266,00 pounds oo r< n tck " They wi " a,so consume 14,83f,000 pounds of potatoes monthty and over 3,000,000 pounds of other foodstuffs.
