VICKSBURG IS
IN COMMISSION
ASSCHOOLSHIP
-•
SEATTLE, March 31 (by Associated
Press).—Washington boys who are
training at a state school here to fit
themselves for officers’ berths in the
American merchant marine will get
their first taste of ocean swells and
possibly seasickness when they leave
on May 15 for a four months’ cruise
on their school ship, the Vicksburg,
once a navy gunboat.
The Vicksburg, according to present
plans, will sail down the coast, stop
ping at Portland, San Francisco, San
Diego, and probably one Mexican port.
From Mexico she. will cross to Hono
lulu. Alaska will then be visited, and
the home trip will be made down the
inside passage, with stops at Skagway,
Juneau, Wrangell, Ketchikan, Van
couver and Victoria.
Commander E. F. Echradt, U. S. N.,
director of the school, will command
the Vicksburg on the cruise. Six
other officers, ten former navy men
and about sixty-five cadets will make
the trip.
The Vicksburg will be rigged as a
brigantine for sailing part of the way.
Through the winter the Vicksburg
rode at anchor in Lake Union, at a
University of Washington wharf,
while the cadets went to school aboard
her. The boat was turned over to the
state last fall, after being placed out
of commission by the navy depart
ment.

MEXICAN DAIRYMAN
ADOPTS METHODS OF
AMERICAN DEALERS
*>
SAN FRANCISCO, March 31 (by
Associated Press).—Delivery of milk
in regular American glass bottles will
soon be a competitor in Vera Cruz with
the universal Mexican custom of bring
ing the milk around in large cans to
be measured out in miscellaneous re
ceptacles furnished from the custom
er's household, according to Gonzalo
A. Velasco, a Vera Cruz dairyman
who visited California a few days ago.
He was so impressed with the milking
machines used at the University of
California farm that he started home
by way of Chicago to lay in a supply
for use in his own dairy. He bought
two carloads of bottles in San Fran
cisco before his departure.
