zil, reports that the, botanical exhibit
from that country will be the finest ever
made. The director of the botanical
garden at Rio de Janeiro, DR.. J. Bar
boza Rodrigues, probably the leading
scientist in that republic, is taking
great interest in the work of preparing
a fine display for Chicago. He viii send
the fullest possible collection OF plauts,
and make full exhibit of orchids and
palms, on both of which he is high au-
thority, having himself discovered over
five hundred varieties Of orchids and
fifty now varieties of palms. He will
send also his private chronological collec-
ton OF over hundred pieces, the most
valuable and the rarest that he found
during his stay in the Amazon country.
DIR. Ladislao Neeto, the director of the
national museum at Rio, is also very
earnest in having fine exhibit at Chi
cago, and has already made requisition
for funds for that purpose. DR.. Neeto
organized the Brazilian section of the
Berlin fisheries exhibition, and promised
to get up similar display for Chicago.
HThis may be given to the United States
Fishery Commission in exchange for
something OF theirs.

\ A Western cattle rancher says it is be-
coming an everyday occurrence to see
women out West dealing in cattle and
horses. The loneliness and harpships of
the great prairies do not seem to deter
energetic women from the purpose of
conducting aproftable business. A few
days ago cattle queen from Idaho sold
two carloads of fine horses at Omaha at
much better figure than any man could
have obtained.
