Who says Mis- sourl fruit isn’t In it? “Here we are spending $75,000.00 not only to make a magnificent fruit display, the very appearance of which will startle the world, and give the State a prestige it merits in the realins of horticulture, but in our displa, we will emphasize some things of command- ing importance, for instance : : ‘First. Our display will show and demon- strate that Missouri grows every fruit of the world except tropical fruits. From the extreme frozen Northland, we bring their few fruits such as the red raspberry, red currant, and Alpine strawberry, and grow them to very improved quality in Missouri.

An- other striking features of this exhibit is the complete detail model of the University and Campus. It is said to be the finest specimen of such work on exhibition at the Fair, and an Inspection of it will serve to impress upon the world the greatness of our State Uni- versity. “In the Social Economy Section our ex- hibit of the Boys’ Training School at Boon- ville, the Deaf and lumb School at Fulton, and the Blind School at St. Louls, are the finest exhibits in their respective depart- ments. Every taxpayer of the State should visit these exhibits, and be lmpressed with their philanthropic and economic service to tha, peopte of the State. » “As we pass over the lagoon to the Pal- ace of Mines and Metallurgy, we see to our left the Palace of Manufactures, In which is shown the products of the great and rap- idly increasing manufacturing plants of the State. Under the rules of the Exposition Company, all such exhibits must be made in the name of the manufacturing person, company or corporation ; for that reason the State could not make such exhibit, but the visitor will tind that Missouri's wide-awake and progressive manufacturers have installed Magnificent exhibiis, and especially is this true of St. Louis, the fourth manufacturing elty of the United States.

In each of these palaces individual Missourlans and Missouri compantes or corporations are making superb exhibits in number and char acter that reflect great credit upon our State, “But now we have reached the south en- trance of the lalace of Mines and Metallurgy, where Missouri's Mineral Exhibit is strik: ingly Installed on 8.400 square feet of tloor at a cost of $75,000.00, This extensive and comprehensive exhibit of our mineral re- sources is conclusive of the fact that Mis- sourl is a mining State of great magnitude, and tends to make good the assertion that her mines have produced over $700,000,000,00 in mineral wealth. Gur exhibit is the largest of any state or foreign country, and in its arrangement and completeness is without a beer. Of course we lead the world in our display of zine ores and production, and with a single exception show and produce more lead. Excellent coal for fuel and manufac- turing purposes is shown in one-half the counties of the State, and the great Iron Mountain in Southeast Missouri is another monument to our iron and other mineral re- sources, A beautiful cement pavilion and an ornate and handsome pagoda constructed of manufactured clay producis, will appeal to us all. A comprehensive collection o: building material, consisting of most handsome blocks of granite, Porphyry, onyx, marble, lime- stone, sandstone, etv., will astonish the most of our own people with its extent and qual- ity. The exhibit is uniquely installe by a clreular facade consisting of an overhead railroad track upon whic! is constantly operated six miniature trains of seven cars and a locomotive each, re resenting the six great railroad systems of the State, and each train loaded with and carrying the mineral products found in that part of the State traveled by such railroad, “In the outside mineral exhibit Missourl is also represented by a large pavilion for mas- sive specimens of ores and minerals, by a re 6,000 acres every five days.

No, no, this gospel of our greatness should be preached to all the world that thereby may come our greater development and prosperity. With this in view the Missouri Commission is spendin, $50,000.00 in the publication of the Missour Volume. To do this important work, we have selected that scholarly, Christian gentleman, that prince of newspaper men, your own Walter Williams, whose iacomparable diction, epigrammatic expression and raphic English will fitly tell the story of Missouri's great- ness. That former newspaper associations might not tend to too highly color the glories of his beloved State, it would seem that a kind Providence caused him to be sent, two years ago, to the Holy Land, that there, under the spell and inspiration of the sur- roundings in which the Great Master of All Truth once lived, he might be so inspired as to be enabied to return and to so write the annals of his State's resources that none would doubt his story, whetner he be a saint or sinner, within or without the Holy Land. “This octavo volume of 600 pages in silk Lewes containing some 600 illustrations, printed on elegant paper and issued in an edition of 80,000 copies, will soon be ready for free distribution. It will authoritatively deal with Missouri as it is and as Missouri is to be. Upon proper request and without cost, It will go into the hands of every in- telligent person who may want to know more about M and also into every library in the world, “And in passing I want to venture the pre- diction that no money ever spent by the State will bring better returns or bulld a more last gg . to 3 oo pet ness than that spen' tl reparation an publication of the Missouri Volume. “And now in conclusion I want to invite and all the of Missourl to come re and participate in the dedication of this Missouri State url not only yields more corn, but more rn per average acre than any other state, at if one year's yield were loaded into the procession of “Exposition experts tell us that no such hibit has ever before been made, and that e details, plans, labor and expense are so As an indication of its perintendent that an actual proposition has ready been made to him to buy it at the piration of the Fair, and then remove it Coney Island as one of the leading at- the Missouri Dairy Exhibit, 15,000.00 in placing most attractive exhibit of dairy products ssibilities, The installation presents to the main section of the Fair ‘orestry Exhibit in the Forestry “In crossin; ass our mak: ng a fine display of our timber pro- ind especially of our gum lumber in- rests in Southeast Missourl.
