Nowhere have I heard a grouse, "Satisfactory, under the circum- stances," is the general verdict:
The allowance is based on the census of horses and the quantities of food normally consumed, taken some weeks ago.
The census revealed about 2,300 horses in training. Before the war it was about 11,000.
