Exhibit of Resources.

Representative Turnbull of Vir
ginia, has offered in Congress bill
which provides for permanent ex.
hibit Of the natural, Industrial ano
educational resources of each Of the
States of the Union. The bill pro.
vides:
"That there shall be appointed a
commission consisting of the Secre-
tary of State, the Secretary of War
and the Secretary of the Treasury
and four other persons to be appoint
ed by the President, whose duty ii
shall be to investigate, consider, ano
report, by bill or otherwise, to Con,
gress it's findings and recommends
tions, regarding the practicability OF
installing and maintaining in or near
the city of Washington, District of Co
lumbia, a permanent exhibit illustra-
tive of the natural, Industrial and ed
vocational resources of the various
States of the Union"
The three cabinet officers are to be
honorary members without pay
while the four other commissioners
are to receive $4,000 a year. The
bill has been endorsed by the COVER
nors of a great many of the States
and by the commercial bodies OF
many cities, including Norfolk.
Virginia could furnished magnlti-
cent exhibit of her resources and If
fact such an exhibit would prove a
revelation TO many people of the var
led and valuable resources Of the
Southern States.
The reasons ascribed for the es-
Establishment of such exhibits are given
as follows:
"The exhibit contemplated by this
law would afford in time an inspiring
object lesson in the vast resources OF
the several states of the Union. II
would give Us all new conception Of
the natural wealth and productive
ness of our country. 1t would oper
the ewes of those who now VIII ho'
see, to the boundless opportunities

to patriotism.Fo that man or wom-
an would be little envied who corl'

HAY MARKETS.

Movement Of hay in the local mar

little arriving in the last few days to
supply fully the demand for local dis
trtbutton. Consumers wants are
scarcely supplied by the fewer cars
coming. Shipping inquiry is very
small as about all markets are getting
enough from their surrounding farms.
Minneapolis prices have strengthened
in the week 81 or so a ton for bright

Late storms put an embargo on the
movement and sales of the little that
came along were quick and the ad.

Hay markets Of the country are
light In business Offering. as farmers
with good stock m holding for an adj

consumers are purchasing largely to
supply present wants, expecting a fur

leaves the markets quite uncertain.
Storms In many parts affect the move
ment for the time. Poor hay is large

there was further covering and prices
advanced an additional Ia for the
near months with the undertone strong
and the market excited. Prominent
London firms covered here with an
urgent demand for early arrivals.
Later there was some realizing and
a decline Of Ia occurred from the ex-

Nc Easy Road
In Literature

Very often a writer who has won
his need Of success 10 asked. "Is 1t
easier to write articles than to write
stories?" say Maude Radford War
! rem in Woman's World.
From one point Of view. nj species
Of writing Is easy" There is no
short cut to 1t. any more than there
is to a teachers certificate or a doc
tors diploma. It xacts its training:
the only difference. as far as energy
Is concerned. 10 that when you are
learning to be a teacher or a doctor
you know that after a given time. un.
less you are hopelessly incompetent.
you do receive your certificate.
Your training for writing. which
means the production Of many. many
stories or articles or novels or all
three. may go on for years before you
win the attention Of any editor. Even
then you may write a good deal o
than Is ever accepted. BY the time
YOU arrive at this point you will be
beyond asking II one kind Of writing
Is easier" than any other kind: you
will know that 1t IL all hard. but you
won't mind II only you can do 1t well.
Besides any n who is learning to
write. and who means to take up writ
ing as a serious profession. will want
to try his hand at all species
sketches. articles. novels. dramas and
poems. Even poems. for although no
one can make a living out Of poetry.
Yet any n who ID anxious to succeed
must be willing for the sake Of the
art. to do work which can not pay.
but which will be useful in develop
ing skill. In general. speaking from
the commercial standpoint. versatility
is advantage.
But whether 4 writer Is more or
less versatile. whether he can do two
kinds OF writing we'll. or only one.
you may he u that he has tried his
hand patiently at all. He has not
been concerned with asking himself
which is easiest; he has wanted to do
all we'll. II you find yourself wonder
ing about what will give you the least
trouble in writing. you had better dis.
trust your call" You have been
mistaken in thinking you heard q
voice bidding you compose. and you
had better seek some other kind Of
work.
One feels no hesitation in giving
such advice: for IL a person has the
genuine impulse to write. nothing can
tear him away from his pen. He will
not mind the long years Of unpaying
struggle, the days Of disbursement.
