FLORIDA WEATHER


B zone of our big jobs is to convert
northern people to the fact that Flor
ida summer weather is nothing like
they generally imagine it to be-, says
the Florida Grower.
1t is indeed big job. Northern
people generally reason that IS
Florida is about 30 degrees warmer
than most sections of the north in
the winter that the same must be
true in the summer. That Florida
can have winter temperature thirty
degrees warmer and a summer tenn
perature from ten to fifteen degrees
cooler than the north's highest tenn
perature, is thing that is hard to
believe. A campaign of education
along this lines the Grower, believes,
would be something worth while.
The Grower announces that it =
going to do something along this line
in its midsummer number, and it is
q movement that most Florida papers
will gladly join in.-Clearwater Sun.

VALUE OF DIAMONDS IN U. S.

The value of the diamonds in the
United States at the present time is
apparently more than 81 600 600, 900.
AS searly as 1900 asdistinguished dia
mond expert of the United States
said: 1T may be safely said that
$500 100000 worth of diamonds are
owned in the United States and
compilation just made by the Nation
al City Bank of New. York shows that
the value of diamonds imported since
1900 is $506,O00, 000. This alone
would bring the total value of the
diamonds of the country above the
billion dollar line, but when it is re-
membered that S175.oOO,O 900 worth Of
the diamonds imported since 1900
came in the uncut state, and that
their value was doubled by the cut
ting process which occurred within
this country, it is apparent that the
value of the stock in the country is
considerably more than $1,000, 900 900
TO say nothing of the further fact.
that prices of diamonds have in
creased materially during the war.
About one-half of the worlds dia-
monds are now apparently owned in
the United States. An estimate
made in 1900 by the authority above
quoted put the value of the worlds
stock of diamonds at rather more
than s1,Oo0.0O0,oOO, and indicated
that the United States then owned
about one-third OF the total stock
known. With the rapid addition to
our own stock through the impor-
tation of s5o6.OOO.oo0 worth since
1900, it seems probable that fully
one-half Of the worlds stock of dia-
monds is now held in the United
States.
