MEAT FOR THE ARMY.

Press Association.—Telegraph.-Conyright

LONDON, March 29. In the House of Commons the Marquis of Tuliibardine inquired rhe reasons for supplying the Army with frozen or refrigerated meat three days a week. Colonel Seely, in reply, said he considered tint it was in the best interests of a soldier to vary his diet. He denied, in reply to further questions, that the purchase of frozen meat was merely due to its cheapness. Even were freshly-killed meat supplied, it would be most difficult to ensure that it had been bred and fed in Britain.
