erest in iron mining and manufactures was represented by the crude
product only.

In crude specimens, ores of manganese, zinc, copper, nickel, lead, etc.,
were displayed, as well as feldspar, corundum talc, asbestos, gypsum,
and mica. A pavilion built of old Bangor slate showed slabs of different
grades and varieties of finish.

A handsomely mounted exhibit of crude and refined oils in 200 flasks
conveyed a conception of the variety and extent of the oil industry of
the State. The whole exhibit, so far as space would permit, was designed
upon a scale significant of the size, importance, and value of the
mineral wealth it represented.

The general scheme of installation of Pennsylvania's agricultural
exhibit embraced an inclosing structure of show cases with plate-glass
tops. On either side of the four corners was a massive paneled port
surmounted by a glass sphere 6 inches in diameter and filled with some
farm products similar to that which was shown in the cases adjoining
them.

Upon two of the keystones grains and seeds were displayed in glass jars,
while corn was shown in rows of ears. Upon another keystone were shown
fine specimens of fine tobacco, as also in the show cases adjoining the
pagoda. All the tobacco shown was grown in Lancaster County. Wool was
shown in the grease, or "unwashed," in small samples taken directly from
the sheep. These samples were arranged upon black velvet, which lined
the bottom of the cases in a large variety of beautiful forms, and
constituted one of the most attractive features of the exhibits.

In the remaining show cases was found an unusually large collection of
the manufactured products of the farmers' crops, including meals,
flours, "breakfast foods," oils, liquors, pipes, etc.

Pennsylvania's fish exhibit was divided into five groups, namely: Live
fish, mounted fish, birds and mammals, water colors and photographs of
fishery subjects, legally confiscated devices for catching fish and
angling materials.

Naturally, it was designed that the live-fish exhibit should be the
prominent feature. Thirty-five aquaria were placed on two sides of the
main aisle. Only prominent examples of various groups were displayed,
consisting of game fishes, food fishes, the principal interior fishes
commercially valuable as food, representatives of types which have no
value either for game or food purposes and which were distinctively
destructive, and also minnows.

The still exhibit was one
