Inc nrst early apples exhibited at
Cne Fan-American Exposition same in
t.o tioh missouri and were put on exhi-
OlIlon early last Monday morning. The
variety is the EARLY Harvest" a very
wen known and delicious summer
apple OF the Mississippi valley. The
ohlpment came from Southern Missou-
H. and is made from the earliest pro-
Nucts OF one Of the finest apple belts
OI the Union. Commissioner Bell has
just returned from Missouri, and has
arranged Tor an exhibit of the Stone
Hill wine Company, of Hermana. Mis-
SouTl. tie says it will be the greatest
wine exhibit ever shown from points
between the Mississippi River and the
ROCKY Mountains. The Stone Hill
wine Company possesses a cellar ca
paclty and carries a stock of wine un-
surpassed by any firm in the United
states. Commissioner Bell says this
company has a fortune in it's wine Gel
lars, all of which are below ground.
More than twenty brands of MissOult
wines are exhibited in the HOrticul-
ture Building, including the famous
BLACK Pearl" a wine which won the
Medal Dor at the Paris Exposition.
1t is claimed by Mr. Bell that the Mis-
souri, wines rival if they do not excel
those of California.
Mr.. Scott, Superintendent of the
horticulture, has the finest display of
roses on the Pan-AmericAn grounds
ever seen in the United States. Twenty
thousand blush roses are now in full
bloom. In walking through his rose
gardens one is reminded of the ia
nous valley of Cashmere, where for
centuries the altar of roses has been
made. 1t is possible this industry may
yet be introduced on large scale into
Ane Uni.ed States.
The fourth of July was observed here
by the display of $500 worth of fire
works and apparently by $4,000 of fire
crackers and toy pistols. Patriotism
is all right, but when it comes to lis
tening to a miniature battle for two
nights and a day continuously the
lining gets monOtOnOus. Cannot some
inventive American find quieter way
in which young America can show it's
devotion to freedom and the Declar-
alton of independence. The Expo
'sition authorities offered most at
tractive program to the thousands of
people who thrOngeG the courts Of
this most magnificent exposition.
There has recently been installed
in the exhibit Of the Bureau of Edu-
cation in the Government Building
school exhibit from the Philippine
Islands and Hawaii. The work of
the more advanced pupils will be
surprise to those who imagine the in
habitantS of our new possessions are
barbarians. Among the most notable
objects of the Philippine exhibit were
the various books ordered for school
use in the islands. A manu-
script poem in the Tagalog dialect;
manuscript arithmetic over one hun
dred years old, and the letters written
by the children in Spanish, English
and TagalOg The exhibit is very
-creditable, considering the fact that
the sc.ools are not yet very well or
.ganized. The teaching force in the
islands is limited to one hundred
teachers, who are scattered over the
various islands of the archipelago.
The Hawaiian exhibit is not less
interesting. On the wall is raised
map of the island of Hawaii made by
the Chinese pupils of Kauuwela ~
the island of Oahu. Near by II :
large flag made by the girls of the
Princess Kailulani school; a screen
made of mats, napkin rings, hats,
ETC., woven from the lauhala, or
leaves of the pandanus tree. There
are three cabinets containing manu-
script work of the various schools of
the territory. 1nere is a botanical
exhibit made by the pupils of the
fifth ana sixth grades. There is a
collection of botanical plants painted
by the pupils of the Kailani schools.
This exhibit was co-4ected by Mr..
Alatau T. Atkinson, Superintendent
of Public instruction for Hawaii. =;
The visitor to the Pan-Americau
Exposition should not fail to examine
the group of buildings erected by the
South American, Central American
and Mexican Republics. In these
buildings are displayed products pc
-culiar to the country they represent
Take, for instance, Honduras. 4
unique agricultural display first ar
rests the attention.; then there are
A Sure Thing for You. =.
