Industries, tbe Sheet grades,
are valued according to their degthe
of clearness, are need In tbe mans-
factors of eoopt, fine varnlih and for
"•Itlog” In tbe manufacture of paper.
The medium qualities are mostly con
tained In making yellow *oap,
flux for lolder, as a constituent of
eeallng wax, with tallow for common
candles, and In pharmacy. The low-
es(qual|ties rosin are used for pitch
In ship and boat building, for brew
er'# pitch In sealing the heads and
staves of barrels which bold liquids,
and for the distillation of rosin oil
which eatern Into the manufacture of
lubricating materials. Wltb these va
ried and ever-increasing uses It Is
easy to see how the annut-I consump
tion of roaln last year amounted to
more than 4.260,000 barrels, valued
at nearly *18,000,000.
The great*decllne In the prices re
ceived for turpentine In 1908, while
the prices for roaln were ranging
more in conformity with those of the
proceeding year, hat much to do with
Nils condition, but there are other
causes which combine to lend Inter
est to this ellmax In the general
trend of advancement In the value
and Importance of this product of the
naval stores Industry.
That the general Improvement In
the grades of roaln. produced by a
more general u«o of Improved mctli-
odi of turpentining, Is responelblo to
an appreciable extent tor tbe In-
crease In the value of the entire ros
in output It unquestioned, according
to men familiar with the trade.
Another' eauae for this condition I*
the constantly Increasing demand -for
roaln, and especially the paler and
more valuable grades both In thl t and
In foreign countries.
Some of those at present engaged
In the manufacture of naval stores
temember the time when they found
It unprofitable to preserve the resi
due rtf the turphtlne still—rosin. A
few years preceding the Civil war
there were few uses for. rosin and
only a alight demand. During that
period roaln was permitted to accum
ulate with other discarded and value
less refuse about the turpentine still
But gradually has the demand for
roaln Increased and year by year It
has been climbing higher In the scale
of value aai Importance, until it has
succeeded In passing turpontln
heretofore vastly more valuable and
Important product of the naval stores
farm.
The pos'tlon which roaln has as
sumed In the naval' ktores market
argue* well for Increasing,the qse 'of
Conservative methods which have re
sulted to sucb a great extent In In-
'greasing the value of the rotla by
producing paler grades. 'No agency
has been more potent and non# nan
be usqd to greater advantage la an
effort to- encourage conserv||ttva tur
pentining than th* knowledge that pal
er and more voidable grade* lit roaln
Is one o( the most pronounced resul

When one considers the millions
of tons of sawdust and other waste
of the lumber Industry that la 6*rnM
to get It out of the way, this opnqr*
tunlty for wealth In waste through
the derivation, of alcohol and other
valuable products opens up a prospect
possibly not even equaled hy that
which came upon man when he ceas
ed to pour his cottonseed Into the
nearest stream and'mado the scWtb®
basin for an Industry which In only
40 years ban reached an annual out
put valned at more than *100,000*100.
No one need fear that the new-
dustry will result In too much alcol

Juet as Is Increasing the realisation
of tbe neceanity for science hand

AT PARTING OP WAYS?
Mr. McLendon, the chairman, of
-the railroad commission, -wan tbe
right bower, as It were, of Gof&aor
Smith, In hit first campaign
governorship,.and gave
strong support In his second cam
paign, but It seems that be doesn't
have as high regard for the gover
nors Judgment In railroad mat-
ten at he oboe had. The other day
the governor sent to tbe commission
communication favoring a reduc
tion In-the rate on cotton to the
porta or 5 cents a bale. It Is report
ed that Mr. McLendon has prepared
an answer to It In which he taken
the position that the rate In Georgia
In now lower than In Texas, Ataba-
and Louisiana, and that It
wouldn’t be advisable to lower It
further at this time, since the rail
road# haven't yet recovered from the
effects of the panic.
Of course, It Isn't known what t)te
ertton of the oommleslon will be:
but It would be rather remarkable
tt U should side with the governor
and against Its chairman, particu
larly as the chairman seems to have
much-the better of the argument.

fects of the panic, as ithled , by
