ported missing in action in to-day's
first time and being rescued by British
troops the second time. In each in
stance Maxson, who was attached to the
Medical Corps of the British army, was

Britain to Buy Ships
Millions Reported Involved in
International Co. Deal

The board of directors of the Inter-
national Mercantile Marine Company
assembled at special meeting yester-
day to consider the proposition Of SELL
ing the corporations British tonnage to
the British government. Negotiations
for the taking over the company's float
ing properties were first started by the
British government about four months
ago.
P. A. S. Franklin, president of the
company, said that the meeting had
been a satisfactory one, but that moth
ing sufficiently definite had trans
pired to warrant an announcement It
was a big transaction, he said, and
necessarily would have to be pr, .
tracted.
1t is said that the company had re-
ceived all offer of 125,0O0,O0O for the
tonnage Of the White Star, Leyland,
Atlantic Transport and Dominion lines.

Summary of Vermont January Butter
Scoring.

\ The January educational butter scor-
| ing in which the state department of ag-
riculture and the agricultural college ex-
tension service cooperate was held at
the dairy department. Morrill, hall, on
Jan. Is instead of Jan, Is, az previously
announced, because part of the samples
were also entered in the Vermont Dairy
mems association contest from which
they were not released until Jan. 49,
There were % samples entered, which
is a credit to the creameries, for the no
tees were delayed, many reaching the
creameries only a day or two before the
date set for the scoring, Many more en-
tries are expected for the second month
ly scoring, which is set for Feb. Is.
The samples, as lot, were very good
indeed, the time of year considered. The
scores did not run high, for, as was stat
ed in the original announcement, the
judges were critical and endeavored to
score each sample strictly as TO market
standard and value. Those samples
which were entered in both places were
uniformly scored lower here than they
were at the state dairymen's meeting.
The average score for all samples was
90.4. Most entries showed good work
manship, but several were more or less
notified and few were slightly gritty.
With the overcoming of these defects,
the score will be increased, BY far the
most severe cuts were made because of an
old cream and cowy flavor. This empha-
sizes the Importance of proper care of
milk and cream on the farm, together
with frequent delivery. The average
moisture content was 1913 per cent and
the salt test showed an average of %
per cent.
The scoring was done by George f. Z.
Story, II. b. Ellenberger, " Il. Jones
and NJ K. Tolstrup. All of the state
creamery inspectors were present.
The averages of the judges scores of
individual samples follow:
