Formerly he had only 4.000 but the Army Medical Boat'd said It was. not enough and had the war de partment raise the ration by a thousand calories. A calory is not in itself food or a measure of food in the ordinary sense V calory Is n unit Invented not by cooks but by scicntbtn. It is a heat unit, considered as fuel for the human ma chine. Its equivalent In mechanical energy is 8,077 foot-pounds A soldieß’s ration for one day should if fully utilis ed be 15,000,000 foot-pounds a day or ten I times the muscular enegry displayed by the average man in n hard day s work.
