There la an Inatltatloa of the stata

for tbe pabtle, mat for the benefit ef
every eltixea fn the commonwealth
It la the Bute Mnseum at Harria
burg,, where a collection ia being
made of every kind of mineral, anl
mal, bird, insect, flower, apeolman
of tree, and historical rello from each
ooun ty of the atat e. '
Pike County should be well repre.
sented ia this institution, which is
laying a foundation invaluable for
future years. The purpose of tba va
rious divisions of the museum ia as
follows:
DIVI8ION OF ZOOLOGY -Where
can be seen the animals in
tnelr respective haunts and natoral
surroundings; many valuable featarea
for the agriculturalist, where Infor
mation may be obtained in reference
to tbe birds, Insects and animals of
the locality that are helpful or de
structive to crops
DIVISION OF GEOLOGY. '
Since Pennsylvania is rich in min
erals, there should be place before
the people of tbe commonwealth one
of the best state exhibits found in the
Onion. This should include mineral
ngy, paleontology and industrial ge
"logy. Each county. In the state
should be well represented by its re-
sp&fTYe minerals, the coals, Irons,
nils, clays, glass sands, building
ittooea, .el-c.', with maps and obarts
showing; where located. The ednca-
lonBand" industrial shonld be close-
ty allied, to be of use to the common
wealth. .. There should be maps,
charts and fossils of the geological
era, portraying the earliest forma
tloBs known, including the glacial
period,, .upheavals, mountain and
yauey mating,: rivers ana taxes or
the atate, with relief maps and mod
els showing- strata formations, etc
A DIVISION OF BOTANY

and plants used for beautifying or
for their chemical and medicinal
qualities. Many (basil plants of the
coal .fields of Pennsylvania are on ex
hJhHIdn at the Mcsauui. With the
realisation of the Qapitol Park exlen
.ilon, 4t would be pleasing to see ev..
ery tree, shrub, and, lower native In
the state planted and, labeled, s far
as practicable, within Its grounds.
A DIVISION OF ARCHAEOLOGY.
Pennsylvania should be well known
by a collection from the copterits of
tbe moandeJhat nave bean anaartb
ed, which tells of an early people in
habiting tba state, antedating the
American Indian. )Taeae imple
ments of history, arts and erafta
shonld be gathered al the Museum,
that our present and future genera
tions could have a .more definite
knowledge of these early peoples.
Following this, the American Indian
collection should be arranged and
preserved. There are several good
collections in tbe state, now obtain
able, and in a few years these may
be scattered and li st. They should
be arranged to show tbelr manner of
I ving; art and graft in war and
peaoe; monuments: implement; In
scriptions; relics; dwellings; ololbing
and food obtained from their sur
roundings, each properly shown in
Ita relation to tbe other. . Mapa of

early publications, German pie plates
and the hand printing sliould also be
shown.
There are hiBtoric relics of war
and peace in which the state la very
rich. Many good collections are
scattered throughout tha state, and
should find a home in -tha museum.
There are also many unmarked bis
toriuai spots in each eoaufy of tha
state' whiob should not be neglected.
Either the state or hiatorlul aooiety
of each county, should see .that theaa

labeled, even if only with atsoialb
tablet on a boulder, si tbat they may
not be lost to posterity.

not pat in tbelr leisure during the

among which may be mentioned the
the following; first, tbey furnish iu
fjriuaii' n of diiect value to the farm
