Gov. James B. McCreary, of Kentucky, has read so much about the National Conservation Exposition that is to be held in Knoxville, Tenn., during the months of September and Oc couer, nau uwume mj mucu ixnpressea with the magnitude of the exposition and its importance to the South as a whole that he recently palled Dr. J. B. Hoeing, State Geologist, before him. "Dr. Hoeing," the governor said in effect, "this exposition at Knoxville is going to be a big thing, a much bigger exposition for the South in every way than most people imagine. I am anxious that you go down to Knoxville, look over the ground, see what is being done, and arrange for a state exhibit of Kentucky minerals fet the exposition. Kentucky can not afford to be unrepresented, I believe." Dr. Hoeing came to Knoxville, marveled at the work being done and at the work already accomplished. He went beck to Frankfort and made his report to Gov. McCreary. Kentucky will have its exhibit at Knoxville. The incident thus related is only one of a number of similar character that have occurred recently. Many | who could not see things aright before, have become convinced that the National Conservation Exposition is to be in reality a national exposition, nation-wide in scope, nation-wide in character. The United States government, through its different departments and bureaus, is taking a deep interest in the success of the big undertaking, and in no department probably more than in the Department of Mines and Minerals. In the first place the managers of the Exposition have taken into consideration that the mineral resources of the Great New South are many and varied, that for richness of deposits there are none just like them anywhere in the country, and they have taken into consideration the fact that there is much development work still to be done among these mineral deposits. So a magnificent vnew building, white as snow, as are all of the other buildings of the Exposition, is going up. It will be used exclusively for the display of mines and mineral exhibits. Here the resources that mean so much to the South will be on display; here the lessons of how best to con serve tnese wonaercuuy ncn resources will be taught; here the lessons of how best to protect the lives of those who go down in the mines as a means of earning a livelihood will b) gortraygag.
