Indiana World’s Fair Notes ..v T Joseph Cunningham of Peru has been named as general superintendent to look after the collection of th,e exhibit of swine. -■ 4 yr*- • • —; : “ 1 ' " " The horticulture exhibit at the exposition will include a display of apples, peaches, plums, berries, cherries, quinces, nuts and wild Traits. ~ , • •, - Thje exhibit of woman’s work to be made in the Liberal Arts building will be plaoed in ornamental booths made of Indiana hard woods and manufactured by Indiana concerns.

A display of the diamonds whioh have reoently Been found in Mor gan and Brown counties will be made at the expcsiiion merely to show the diversity of Indiana’s resources. 'lndiana will probably prove to the soientifio world in one of its exhibits a troth that hasloDg been denied, namely that magnetic springs exist. There is a magnetic spring tt Oartereburg and its waters will be exhibited. To speak of Indiana as a ship building state sounds odd, and yet one of the exhibits proposed for the exposition will show the state to have such an industry. There are companies that build large river boats in several of the oities slung the Ohio and they have been asked to make exhibits.

One of the great natural resources of the state which will be exploited at the ooming exposition is the oil industry. The oil finds are of such a comparatively reoent date that the full extent and value of the Indiana oil field has never been fully demonstrated to the world. The display whioli is contemplated will do this. Exhibits for the exposition next year are already beginning to arrive at the headquarters of the Indiana World’s Fair commission in Indianapolis. Assistant Secretary Alexander has arranged with Custodian Huffman of the state honsa for several storage rooms in the building. Artioles which will spoil will be placed in cold storage while the others will be kept at the state house during the winter.

Fassett A. Cotton, superintendent of publio instruotioD, is preparing another bulletin to be sent out to the teaohers and educators of the state giving them farther instructions for the preparation of exhibits to be made by the state in Jr • • . the educational department at the exposition. In many of the oountry distriots the pupils have already prepared the papers and drawings which will go into the display. The sub-committee on horticulturists named by Chairman Stevens of the Indiana World’s Fair committee on horticulture is Peking fruit raisere of the State to furnish 900 bushels of apples to be used for keeping the fruit display fresh during the early spring months until next year's apples will be ripe. County boards of horticulture in several oounties have taken the matter up and are assisting in oolleotiDg these apples. They will be shipped to Indianapolis and kept in storage all winter,
