Th& Most Convincing Argument We Know Of About Advertising Afeou: a month ago. W. T. liudueil inserted an advertise ment In the Dally News. Hiking suggestion* for names of the Beaufort Farm Company prop erty. which Is being developed at the eastern end of the city. This contost cloned on Sep tember 1. and jhe winners will probably be announced tomor row. When seen tbls morning by a representative of the Dally News, snd asked whether many MISS GUILFORD TELLS Of BIG MEEI1NG THAT WAS HELD IN RALEIGH: (BY MISS EMILY GUHJ-X>RD) Home' Demonstrator for Beaufort County. From August 29th to Slat Inclu sive the buildings of A. & M. Col lege In Raleigh accommodated more representative* of Home Demonstra tion Work and many interested in hoem economics than ever before. This was the best meeting ever held by farm women in North Carolina. Quite an interesting and instructive program was on every day, and ef ficient women like Mrs. Jane S. Mc? Klmmon, Mrs. Kate B Vaughan. Miss Minino L. Jamison and others gave demonstrations in cako mak ing. pretty icings, many kinds of bread making and how to properly dress a chicken for home use and for market. A chicken dressed for market, as shown in demonstration, will bring from three to Ave cents per pound more shipped to New | York city than the old fashioned i way. Many demonstrations wore solas Ion simultaneously out of doorn. auch as canning in tin and glass, wear ing ruga, with hnuA loom, making pino needle baskets, making and op erating Iceless Refrigerator, firelest* rooker and fly traps. And this la merely a birds-eye view of the many events which took place at the A. & M. College during this conven tion. Fifty-two thoueand dollar* per year are paid to the Home Demon st-oiton work In our State alone by the government and North Car 1 ollna reielvPB mpre money and is doing a wider extension work than any other state in the union. Edgecombe county received the beautiful loving cup given as a pre mium for largest attendance. Their numebr was ihlryt-nine. All railroads offered reduced rates The cost of the return ticket from Washington was only $3 60. Rooms at the A. & M. College were free, and meals served in the dining room the very best fare, at the minimum co.it of twonty-flve eents each. We ' hope Beaufon county ladies will be come more wide awake and take ad- , vantage of these splendid opportu nities at the next Convention which will be given absolutely free and when It is hoped there will be a Woman's building erected on the A. &? M. College grounds for the ben efit of women at the Farmer's and Farm Women's Convention, and for Strange Case of Mnry Pnige the accommodation of women en gaged In home demonstration work during tho "short, course" which will probably be given at the A. & M. College. As a means of fnrther enjoyment | the visitors of Raleigh were do- ; llghtfully entertained by the Wom an's Civic Club In their new and beautiful club house, where punch and cake, which always "appeal to the Innor man," found fully the same satisfaction amon women. All those who cared to take In the sights of the city had an opportunity of do ing so through the kindness of the well known Colonel Olds, he acting as guide.
