TIME LIMIT EXPIRES.
TBy Ed L. Keen, United Pess staff
Correspondent.
LONDON, Oct. 4.-The time limit
set by Russia In her ultimatum to
Bulgaria expired at two o'clock this
afternoon, London time. At that hour,
Gar Ferdinand's intentions were not
known In London. It Is possible that
the uitimatum expired without an an
swer and that the Russian minister
and his staff already have left the
Bulgarian capital.
Petrograd dispatches earlier In the
day asserted that Russia would ac-
.cept nothing burt complete back
down by Bulgaria. The Russian min
lister, II was said, had been instructed
to leave unless Bulgaria pledged her
self to sever her relations with the
central empires.
Russia still hopes that war may be
averted even after the withdrawal of
her minister. This Is hoped on the
base that the Bulgarian cabinet may
change its policy when It realizes the
allies mean war.
~ hostiIities come, the Slavs may
strike first, though Bulgarian troops
are within a few hours march Of the
Serbian border. The Russian war
fleet, which has been raidlna Turk
ish shipping, was today reported off
the Bulgarian port OF varna.

GOOD CHANCE FOR DAIRYMEN AND
BUTTERALAKERS,


Every dairyman or creameryman in
Vermont ought to take advantage of the
opportunity afforded by the agricultural
extension service of the state in con
junction with the state agricultural col
lege to score up their butter and to ron.
tinue their participation from year TO
year SO that they may determine whoth-
er they are making improvement in ttlir
product. The opportunity is particular
ly valuable inasmuch as the returns TO
the buttcrmaker will be accompanied by
honest criticism of each individual case,
coupled with statement of the water and
salt contents of each sample, coupled
with suggestions as to chance for i'm.
provement. Moreover, each participant
will receive the proceeds from the sac
af his sample, minus, of course, any car.
riage charges. As we understand the
Plan, there is not necessarily any pub
licity OF the results other than perhaps
the announcement of the highest scorers,
90 that no one need be backward for
fear that his first contribution Of but.
ter for scoring may be ranked down in
the list. Such a chance for betterment
of their product ought TO be seized eager
ly by every buttermaker in the state.
