FLORIDA’S CIGAR | @ The next time anyone asks yon about Florida’s industrial possibilities, mention the cigar industry —a shining example of how a. Florida. manafactur-. ing business grew from small beginnings to a posi- tion of world leadership. Other industries can ! enjoy the same advantages which have contributed t to the development of cigar manufacturing— Proximity to source of supply; Access to world | markets; ideal climatic and living conditions. People who think of Florida as 2 winter resort region, or a8 a citrus growing section, will he astonished to learn: That Florida’s cigar industry represents an invest- ment of seventy-five million dollars. That the monthly Florida payroll is in excess of $1,200,000. a That Florida’s 300 cigar factories employ 15,000 workers, That about $22,000,000 worth of Florida cigars are manufactured each year. RY Ds That Florida ranks first among the States in pounds of tobacco imported yearly. That Florida’s tobacco growing helt covers 18 counties, producing a $3,000,000 crop. The cigar industry is source of great wealth and steady employment throughout the year. Its development has been consistent, not spectacular. Factors contributing to ite euccess are permanent, rather than temporary. These same factors are just as advantageous to many other industries. Florida needs more people, more markete— and industries wil} follow.
