CALL BUREAU, WORLDS FAIR,
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 29.-The president of
the California State Board of Trade,
General N. P. Chapman. indorses the
showing made by California at the
Worlds Fair, and says the State is GER
tain to obtain excellent results from It,
The display made by the various
counties in the Palace Of Agriculture is
magnificent" said General Chapman. II
have been observing California's dis
play here carefully in order to make q
report to the Board of Trade, and / can
make most favorable report. The ma
terial shown by the counties is well Sc
lected and handsomely displayed. I am
satisfied that this exhibit is attracting
great deal Of attention and that its
effect will be apparent in time to come
The attracting of new settlers is not
the only end to be attained by It, The
exhibition Of our products in such
tempting manner draws attention to
them and makes new customers. The
developing of markets Is one of the
most important branches of promotion
work.
The other California exhibits are a
credit to the State, and in education
especially we, are well represented,
which is good thing for the growth
Of the State. We don't make much of a
showing in the manufacturers building,
but will be able to in future years."
General Chipman spent the first part

home entirely recovered and not before
he had taken a good general look at the
fair
