DIAMONDS IN UNITED STATES
Stores to the Value Of $500 Found In
Single Year.

Never In the history OF the United
States has there been such a demand
for diamonds as there was In 1905.
Large quantities were imported, but
the country produced none.
In 1903 IL produced diamonds to the
value OF $50. In 1901 1t had an output
worth 500. in 1900 Its production was
valued at $780, and In 1899 the coun'
try boasted native diamonds to the
value of $500.
Diamonds have been discovered In
the United States in four different re-
gions. but their actual place OF orr
gin is unknown. All have been found
Ia loose and superficial deposits, and
all accidentally.
1t is not at all improbable. how.
ever that some day the original
sources OF this queen of gems may be
discovered. The high price of dia.
monds has made the recent search for
these precious stones in the United
States and Canada keener than ever
before. Scientific American.
