Mr. Pires, wbo only ten sears ago went to prospect with a few pounds capital, and who is now one of the biggest diamond merchants in British Guiaca, told a Morning Post representative of the wonderful future for dismonds from the Colony.
started by looking for geld be said, but soon tralised that diamonds were to be obtained with vreater case than in South Airica. At that time, the diamocd trade in Bide Guiana was in its inlaney, but now the production is growing, by rapid strides every year, and soon this will be one of the most important centres for diamond misingia the world.
FEW FEET BELOW GROUND According to Mr. Pires dia monds are found in Britisha Guiana oply a few feet below the surface of the ground, so that expenses are cut down to a minimum. In the winter some 8, 000 carats are sent to England Very month, and the best of the stoces. be declared, are as good as any from the older and famous South African mines.
Diamonds in tbeir ancat state were shown to a Morning Post representative. little beap of stores like tiny seashore pebbles was valued at about 100, 000 Oce of the biggest stones shown yesterday was valued as just over 1000 in British Guiana.

Ferbape anything else, we Alterations and Repairs at reasonable Prices give effect to the recommenda it is becaure of the fact that we tious of the Joint Committe of live in a colony blessed with all Ladies Garments carefully handled the suger Planters Association prvilizacy o nature Chamber Commerce and that we are so westefal in our Farmers, eonference was severe habits.

Considerable ground for optimism 1s to be found in the statement that an investigation of the fruit conditions with special reference to bananas and citrus fruits in the West Indies carried out by the general secretary during his visit.
AND THE FRUIT COMMITTEE bas under corsideration the or ganization of supplies from the Caribbean area on a basis wbich would enable those colonies to become jointly a large supplier of the United Kingdom of of tropical fruits. We have in our minds eye tbat sectiou of Mr. Pooley report in he dealt with fruit possi: British Guitda aod which taken in in conjunction with proposed action by the organization seems to augur weil for our future in the fruit trade.
On this question it would te recalled, be said in part that a country so obviously fit for the fruit should pro so little impresses every visitor Oranges from the neigh bouring Dutch colony of Surinam are commons provided on Georgetown tables.

Splendid word work has been done by the Imperial Culo Agriculture au Trinidad in this direction. Citrus fruits and can be grown the softer essentially tropical fruits the Buxton spice mango is a fruit compared to which the type are mere receptacles for turpentine.
Of course it will be necessary apart from any organization of an inter colonial nature which the may undertake, that local farmers should ora inanner that they would be able to take full advantage of the opportunities offering. In this connection we would commend to local farmers the criticisms Mr, Pooley levelled in respect of The system of cultivation and ares.
