Editor Poe to Circle Globe.

Announcement is made that Editor
Clarence Poe of the Raleigh, N. c.,
Progressive Farmer and Gazette, will
sail August 23rd for ive-month' s
trip around the world, and will write
for his paper every week a series of
articles dealing with all the notable
and interesting things seen in Japan,
China, the Philippines, India, the
Holy Land, and Egypt, having his
eyes open especially for everything
affecting the South, our agriculture,
manufactures, race problem and polit-
ical problems, conservation of resour-
ces, etc.
What may be expected of Mr.. Poe's
Round the World travel letters NAV
be guessed from the enthusiastic re-
ception of his travel letters from Eu-
rope two years ago. SO popular as
published in The Progressive Farmer
and Gazette. the letters were later
printed in book form, and wereaward-
ed golden trophy cup for distinguish
ed literary merit, the presentation be-
ing made by Ambassador Bryce, of
Great Britain, who Joined great
number of American critics in high
praise of the book. The Atlanta Con-
stitution remarked editorially the
other day that Mr.. Poe ''by his SPLEEN
did qualities of intellectual and moral
leadership has become one of the
leaders in Southern upbuilding as we'll
as lone of the foremost and soundest
thinkers in the South" Progressive
Farmer and Gazette subscribers will
doubtless follow his letters with inter
est, and one or two sample copies for
examination are offered free to our
readers who do not know the paper.

ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Week after week, month after
month, the Chronicle pleads with the
Stevenson people to patronize home In
dustries, trade at home and build uE
institutions. We have an abiding
faith in the old adage which says that
drop of water will wear away the
stone, and we believe that some day
we all will benefit by the good work
we are doing Stevenson, Ala,
Chronicle.
And yet the Chronicle prints week
ly three big, nasty, filthy, lying whis-
key and beer advertisements, for firms
outside of Stevenson, which we will
wager takes away lot of that money
which the Chronicle pleads should
"build up home institutions We
insert the word "home', for we sup
pose that is what the Stevenson edi-
tor meant. 1t is too true that these
ads are helping "build up institu-
tions'', but such institutions are all
of them away from Stevenson. We
should like to see the Chronicle pros
per, but under present conditions 1t
don't deserve prosperity.

GREAT NEWSPAPER EDITIONS.

There was never an age since print ing was invented that could produce such great industrial and anniversary editions as are brought out today. The Worcester Gazette on the goth of June brought out an industrial edi- ton illustrated with portraits of it's leading citizens, pictures of its mills, factories and business places, it's fine private residences and places of his toric interest with 1etterpress and ad- vertisements which, filled no pages. It was in effect an illustrated encyclo- pedia of the city of Worcester as it is in 1910-a measure of that city's industry. enterprise and progress by which future comparisons may be made, and which for all time must stand to the credit of The Gazette and the age and generation it represents.
 On June 18th. the Dayton, Oh,. Daily News celebrated the occupation of it's new home with an edition of 210 pages, ten sections of which wers 1nulti-colored-a work of art in 61e- sign and finish. This edition called for six carloads of paper, weighed 124 tons, and the web would stretch neariy across the continent The new home of The News is three stories high, is of re-enforced concrete, and fireproof in architectural design represents rhe Augustian period of architecture, and cost one million dollars; and in its artistic beauty and completeness ranks one of the most beautiful buildings in America. In it's completeness this is the most ambitious special edition that The Bulletin has ever seen, and if anything in Dayton escaped it, it is not conceivable what it is. It voices the opinion of the editors of the great state of Ohio as to its work. and is recognized and commended by Prasi- dent Taft and other national celsori- ties. James M. Cox, who is the master spirit, is a thoroughbred newspaper man, in the vigor of life, and with a promising future befores him. The Dayton News is a descendant direct from the Dayton Repertory and rep resents a continuous business career of 102 years and belongs to the Gen. tury club of newspapers, of which The Bulletin is a member.
 These two modern printing establish ments are to be congratulated upon their ability to do great stunts for themselves and the cities which they represent.

THE NEW AIR LINES.

New England has had airline rail- roads, but now it has bright pros pect of having, before many years, airline traffic, and the Worcester Tel egram calls attention to the fact that aviation routes will soon bee 1rse a necessity. The Telegram says: Mem bers of the Berkshire Aero club have already figured out aerial routes, and they lead over the tremendous hills and high precipices from one city to another with an abandon of highways that is refreshing. No more sand ruts for the wheels, Is one of the new mot toes of the enthusiasts. Incidentally there is no astonishment when a Con- necticut member of the club makes a present of acres on the top of the hill for a station, and says he does it to bring the flyers that way to add vajue to the other acres of his farm. The mountain land is good for nothing else and is bound to be worth something for advertising That is good New England thrift right off the reel, and there are others to follow.''
 The Telegram in it's enthusiasm waxes warm over the prospect, arc says therein Ties the opportunity for a great deal of New England glory of the future Not only does it open the way to the highest points for ob- serving the scenery that beats the world, but it affords the opportunity for making use of the mountains and hills of prominence It lifts the hill- tops back into the glory that was theirs when the Indians climbed them to make observations of their routes and their enemies. It makes the old hill farm look like an aero station in embryo It adds wings to the ambi- tions of the owners of abandoned hill places. It is a general lifting proposi- ton all around"
 This is what an expectant world Is yearning for, and the days of high stations and great flights does not seem to be distant

NAMING THE BABY.

wfile naming the baby is a pleas ant duty for parents it is not always an easy task if new names are to be evolved. neither is it free from peril for the infant to be named, who has nothing to say about it, but must always answer to it, unless at some dater, influential period he goes to 7hs courts or the legislature and has his name changed for one of his own design or choice.
 Five minutes study of a directory illustrates how wonderfully and fear fully the human race is named; and dtscloses how innocence has been af-, 1licted and some lives actually bur 1ened
 In this year of 1910 a Michigan par eur has named his baby boy ''Halley Comet Bedunah," and although he is not likely to make 1900 miles min ute or to keep going 75 years to see 1he old sky-wanderer after which he was named, he must bear a freak name 10 show the character of his father and the misfortune which was thrust upon him without his consent.
 As the Lansing Journal appropri- ately remarks:
 Young Haley Comet Bedunah's parents could have chosen to name him after a battle. like Buena Vista or Kenesaw Mountain, or after a pres 1dent; but battles smack of barbar- ism, and presidents go and come no snore-Ehils the Haley comet has shown Itself to be harmless and benev- -olert and goes on forever. And the hoy seems to have selected an auspi- ~cioDs star to be born under, since to begin with the despatches picked him SID cut of the obscurity of Otsego to herald his arrival
 By and by, MT H. c. Bedunah of Otsego, Mich. may be graduated by a university and become a congress man. and he will be all right if he declines to write his name in full IT. C. Bedunah looks well enough fer e diploma. CT a check, or a marriage 5icense; but Haley Comet Bedunah ss too much for anything which re- xuires a digni1ed and respectable sig nature

THE ALARMING THING.

The only alarming thing about dogs is the gross neglect of them at all seasons of the year Up to within few years the season for the rabies was curing the hot months, especially Tn doE-days, but of late years the most intense nad-dog settlements have been created in winter The rec- ord stands uncontra dicted that there has not been one real mad dog where fifty have been written up Dogs suf- fer extremely from heat, and when sick and pursued with yells, in their terror bite people. They do rash things from fear just as human be- fngs do Those xersed in the aniic- tions of dogs say that hot wea ther has nothing to do with producing rabies and that mad dogs never froth at .L,. mouth Frothing dogs have fits. The way to prevent excitement and prezll- dice against dogs is for every one 10 see that they have water accessible ana for their owners to see that they are properly fed and cared for.

WASHDAY LUNcHEoNS.

The problem of a quick and sub- stantial luncheon for washday is one over which many a housekeeper fumes and frets. when the whole question could be settled by having the meat and vegetables that would be needed cooked the day before. With a little cold roast beef or lamb or a boiled plate piece Of beef many delicious dishes may be made in jiffy and. in stead of the hot vegetable, which takes so much time to cook, a salad could be served of the cold ones.
 Boiled beef with tomato sauce-Cut the beef fat and all, in thick slices. Then beat together a tablespoonful of mato catchup and a cupful of stock soup or gravy. When this is smoking hot, lay in the slices of beef, turn them over in the sauce until heated through and add the salt and pepper that would be needed. Any cold meat may be used in this way, and veal or mutton would be especially good so treated.
 boiled white potatoes, sliced and warmed in a hot vinegar and oil dressing.
 Savory mince of cold meat or poul- try-This can be prepared in a chaf- ing dish in the pantry if the kitchen Melt tablespoonful of butter or good dripping and add to it a teaspoonful of onion juice. Put into this chopped. meat of any sort and moisten it to the SOftness liked with gravy saved from the roast or boiling. Season with eel cry salt and pepper, and with anything but chicken put in a tablespoonful Of Worcestershire sauce at the last. If beef is used, chopped potatoes may be added with advantage.
 salad for the dish could be made of boiled carrots or beets and Spanish onion seasoned with French dressing.
 Cabbage and Cheese-This delicious dish may be prepared to all but the last touch the day before, but it must be baked on the one on which it is eaten as its chief charm is the fresh ening the last cooking gives.
 Boil a. white cabbage in two waters, drain it and when cold place it in quarters in a baking dish. Sprinkle it thickly with grated cheese, add two tabaespoonfuls of butter some fine toasted bread crumbs little rich milk and bake. Frankfurt sausages heated thoroughly in boiling water make good flank for this dish and the Ger man dainties are usually much liked by the girl at the tub.
 Odds and end 1ash-Fragments of meat and poultry of any sort. carrots, beans spinach tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant. caulifower, asparagus and green peppers may be used- Chop ev- erything together season with pepper, salt, onion juice, add a cupful of rich stock or gravy, heat the mess thor, oug'llly and serve on slices of toasted graham bread
 A can of spinach drained of the water and dressed with French dress ing and boiled eggs makes a good side dish for the odds and ends hash.
