If it's literally just plain text, then I would suggest entering it as staff text. If it is more special then that, perhaps you can find an link to an image or article about this?

I don't see the "-" there, but if you mean the notations "1st" and "4th", then this is indeed just plain text, so you can use Staff Text (Ctrl+T). The fingerings can be added using the Fingerings palette.
