' sAvmo ARMY Houses.
The British Boeiety for the Preven-
tion of Cruelty to Animals announc-
os that it has treated 81,000 wounded
ind sick horses in the hospitals in
,mnce, and has returned 47,000 or
them to the army as cured.
it's interesting to learn that the
death rate of army horses is being
cut down by one-third through such
medical attention. it does seem -like
an odd business, however, for 11 “So-
ciety (or the Prevention of Cruelty to
‘Animals" to be busied with—waving
horses' lives to send them back to the
firing line.
The average term of a horse’s army
Service is said to be little more than
' a week. And most of them don't die
from wounds, unless gallvmarks and
llashwclts may be called wounds. Let
equine [tell a poor beast must pass
‘ through when, starting in full strength
“ and health, it is worked so hard and
incessantly, under the sting of a pit-
lless whip and in a hideous uproar of
bursting shells, dragging cannon about
of mudhthat it‘is actually worked to
deathln a tow days. A genuine pre-
ventor of cruelty to animals would
put a bullet through
horses bead instead of curing it and
every
incidentally, it may be remarked
I that any American who loves horses
won't sell them to foreign military
agents Our recent exportation of
homes has been ten times as great as
usual. Pretcntton of cruelty to ani-
mals should begin at home. if the poor
~iboast must be sold,
them to drown en route, as the (urge
of mules did in the English Channel
when a Gennan submailne sank th
steamship Armenian.
lilorses and mules are not realh
needed in the war anyhow. Almost e1-
- my use they can be put to is peut‘orm-
ed for better by 11 metal car that has

AMERICAN EFFICIENCY IN
GHUM.
11 is gratifying to learn that the
German military governor of Belgium
has agreed to let the entire grain
crop this year go to the Belgian civil
population. That promise it strictly
icod supplies (or the use of the Ger-
man army was the chief actor last
year in reducing Belgium to starva-
tion. It is gratifying, too. to note that
the German government's agreement
to keep hands 01! is due chiefly to the
American commission that has been
relieving that starvation.
The commission has won the res-
pect and confidence of everybody con-
cerned by its absolute fairness and
efficiency in handling supplies and
helping the natives to regain their
capacity for self support. The com-
mission has not only fed the hungry.
it has systematized the distribution
of food from all sources, among all
elements of the population. It has pro-
vided seed. and looked after the sow-
ing. it has arranged to take charge of
the new harvest. and distribute it reg-
ularly throughout the ensuing year,
making good by contributions from
abroad whatever is lacking.
The feeding of Belgium will re
main in American hands, apparently,
until the war is over, by joint consent
of the conqueror and the conquered.
American benevolence is playing a
big part in it, and yet a subordinate
1 part. ’The outstanding fact is the trl~
11mph of American business efllcien-
cy, coupled with American honesty
and fairness.
