Ii 1895 Florida had a severe freeze
and for seven long years the various
citrus crops were spoiled. In fact the
freeze was so severe that many Of the
trees we're ruined. This killed Florida
for the tine and property went down
20 such an extent that il could be
bought for a song and orange groves
could be had for the asking. In fact
many people made no effort 10 sell their
holdings but moved away, seemingly
glad 70 get of with their lives. Time
went on, orange trees we're set out aud
10 time they began to grow and bear
their golden T. nit. The trees con
tinue 10 bear and Florida today is in a
most prosperous condition. Her people
are happy and contented and those who
are striving are making a good living.
Il is q veritabie land Of delight with the
greatest climate in the world. Cali
fornis has just experienced what Flori-
da did some seventeen years ago and her
people are about as blue as the Florid-
ian was under similar circumstances.
The freeze last week did over S25,OOO,-
600 in damage TO the citrus crops Of the
Golden Coast and many Of the trees
were put out Of commission. This will
require the setting out Of new trees and
il viii take six or seven long years for
the State to get back where il was as a
fruit7growing country. California has
probably forged 10 the front faster than
any other State in The union and while
this setback will cripple her, the State
of wonderful resources will continue 10
remain on the map and in time the
freeze Of 1918 will be forgotten. In the
meantime we opine the FlOridian is
laughing in his sleeve, for the Califor-
mia freeze means big advance in or

immense crop. Ii means an advance OF

more, which spells many million dol

loss is sometimes snOther's gain, and it
is the test Of manhood and the, Christ
ian spirit how that gain and that loss
are accepted. 10 proportion that FlOri-
ds is fortunate, she should be charitable,
just as courage and optimism are de-
handed Of the man Of the West. II

standard, il seems but more grist
