Women (in the proportion of 1 to every 17 men,) a ration in kind, alap to matrons and nurses allowed in hospitals. NOTE.---Though forage may be allowed for the number of horses noted, yet money in lieu thereof cannot. A distinction should therefore be drawn, say forage money for one horse only, to all those of the staff, who have not been entitled, heretofore, to more than ten dollars per month. The brigade major, aid to a brigadier, and adjutant, are expressly limited to that. The allowance of forage in kind, hay, oats, and corn, may be made to as many horses in actual service as the War department directs.
