Tony, I found one place:
http://www.armorplans.com/rocking_horses.htm
The specific catalog page is here. They have maple and oak, maple spindles are $1.75 each, 20 for $22.00, or 40 for $38.00
There may be other places but you'd have to dig through this Google search.

Do you have a lathe? I make cherry spindles all the time for my chairs. I use a spoke shave you get them to close to dimension and then I mount them in the lathe and sand them to final finish and dimension. Its a lot cheaper then buying them.
