WEST VIRGINIA HAND BOOK
To be Issued by the West Virginia
Worlds Fair Commission.

The West Virginia Commission TO
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition is
preparing to have issued comprehen-
sive West Virginia hand book for free
distribution at St, Louis next year. 1t
will be handsomely printed volume
of several hundred pages, devoted to a
summing up of the wonderful natural
and industrial resources Of the Little
Mountain State. No state in the
Union is at present attracting 80 much
attention from Investors and the pub
lie generally as West Virginia, and the
Commission is acting wisely in doing
all in It's power TO exploit the state.
Among other features the hand book
will contain write-up of the fifty five
counties. Secretary Winchester has
recently addressed letters to the coun-
ty courts Of the different counties,
suggesting an appropriation of 500
per page of write-up desired ~ the
publication, and the response is said
to be quite encouraging The Com
mission has not as much money to
spend as the Chicago Commission had
in 1893 else the book would be issued
without calling on the counties for as
sistance.
