Louisiana Purchase Exposition. aus:
furnishes another Illustration Of tl..,
fact that this Exposition's. complete
ness is the marvel Of; the age.
Ftfty-one states. territories and pos.
sessions Of the United States have
taken the steps necessary to partici
pate in the Worlds Fair on an impor-
tant scale. But two states were st;.
outside the fold at the last report. an
In each of these was well define.

ed at the Fair with buildings ,tn,i as.
hibits New Hampshire. the old home
state. and Delaware are the states re
ferred to. In New Hampshire u fund
for participation is being raised pri.
vately by patriotic citizens. SO that IN
the event Of legislative inaction this
commonwealth may be represented.
The states and territories are ex
pending over 100000 in their efforts
to show Off to best advantage at tie
Exposition. This is a million and !,
third more than was expended at til.
Chicago exposition by the states. In

funds for which are not included IL.
these figures. The municipal exhib;.
idea is entirely novel, From a number
Of the states there will be prominp,.S

picture of surprising beauty. Natur
has done much to aid in the creation
OF the picture. Never before has any
exposition been able to grant such nj
vantageous sites for state buildings
The buildings are situated on pla tea Il
about seyenty-flve feet higher than the
level ground to the north upon which
stand the main exhibit palaces. There
are hills and ravfnes here and there
enabling the landscapists to lay out q
most delightful pattern of roads and
terraces and lawns.
The smallest of the state buildings Is
that Of Arizona. which stands near the
southeastern entrance to the grounds
! One Of the largest is that Of Missouri

perhaps the very finest view Of the
Exposition may be enjoyed. Til:
