To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is a question of larger establishments and of a more uniform strength. "^ Major-General Bulwer justly considers this " an important question, greatly bearing on recruiting, for, ' Report for 1885, dated March i, 1886, p. 16.
SECT. IV Time required to mature Physique 6 5 if men are unduly worked, as they always will be in very weak battalions, the army obtains a bad reputa- tion, and becomes less popular with those to whom we look to fill its ranks.
At one time also there was a great cry rais...ed against the recruits, because they were not effective as soon as could be wished. This was no fault of the men ; they are taken young ; and Major-General Bulwer in several of his Reports justly contends that " they must be given time to mature ; " and *' that no men, no army, and no system will stand the strain unless the home establishments are maintained at a strength sufficient to meet the demands made upon them. " 1 Again, as regards the physique of recruits, men between the ages of 18 and 20 have great room for development, and there is abundant testimony to the marvellous progress both in height, weight, and chest- measurement, which is made during the first few months of service.^ Moreover, "while so many recruits are wanted, it will be necessary to take young men, and, provided time is given them, they ultimately become the best soldiers.
