A Magnificent Display.

The Brazilian Government intends to make a magnificent display at the World’s Fair and will invest not less than half a million dollars in carrying out the plans for its representation. It is proposed not only to erect a building in which to display the magnificent resources of Brazil, but to surround that building with practical illustrations of the methods of agriculture and industry. There will be a sugar mill in operation, a coffee quinta, at which the method of gathering and curing coffee for the market will be illustrated, and the manner in which rubber is gathered and prepared for market will be shown in a similar way. There will be also several fao-simUes of native huts,' with native families living as they live at home, and pursuing their industries. It is proposed also to have the national band of Brazil in "attendance. The equilibrium of things in general would be more nearly established if farmers who supply the city market would pick their apples after they are ripe and their turkeys before they are ripe.
