Default Scientific Notation when graphing

Hi I'm using Excel 2003 and I am trying to make a column graph where the
y-axis represents bacterial growth in log form. Therefore, the numbers are
quite large. I need the axis to say "10^3" and not "1.E03". I am confused
as to why the only scientific notation that I can find is written as "1.E03"
because no scientific journal that I have come across uses this notation on a
graph. I have tried using the "custom" tool and adding "^3" to the end but
the number ends up being quite large and not anywhere what I need it to be.
Thank you.
