An interesting application of petrol propulsion to military needs is the Saurer field-kitchen, an illustration of which we include herewith. The chassis is the company's standard two-ton live-axle chassis, -the chief features of which are too well known to require de:-crip-don here. This travelling kitchen is so fitted as to meet the culinary -requirements of sonic 700 men, the main cooking plant consisting of a couple of self-contained stoves, each equipped with two separately-flied cauldrons_ The cauldrons are double-walled for oil-bath heating, the intervening oil serving the dual purpose of retaining the heat once generated and preventing the food from getting " caught " by fire. Thanks -to the practical arrangements of the stoves, it is possible to cook when the wagon is moving, so saving much time.
