To the Editor: Owing to the fact that

TURPENTINE INDUSTRY.

| The discovery of new way of extract
| ing turpentine, made two years ago by
DR.. Charles H. Herty, working under the
direction of the Bureau of Forestry, is
resulting in complete change of methods
by turpentine operators all over the
South
In a bulletin published last spring by
the Bureau of Forestry the claim was
made that the experiment with the new
cup and gutter system of turpentining had
resulted in an increase over the old box
ing system of % per cent in the amount
Of product extracted. This figure has now
been raised to more than SO per cent.
In other words, DR.. Hertys system, when
universally adopted in the South, as it
is bound to be sooner or later, will have
raised the turpentine production of this
country by more than third, provided
the same number of trees are used. Two
years ago when DR.. Herty first made
known his discoveries he put 10000 cups
into operation. Last year this figure was
increased to about 100000. This year
conservative estimate places the number
of cups to be used at 100000. The fig
ures give some indication Of the rapidity
adopting the new system. The change
of method has been so rapid that the
pottery company which undertook to sup
ply operators with earthen cups has been
unable to keep up with its orders and has
been obliged to refuse contracts for over
two million cups 1t is safe to say that
the majority of the large turpentine
operators in this country have given UP
the boxing system and will extract their
turpentine by means of cups and cutters.
The economic saving of this new dis
ccvery is enormous. 1t not only causes
a great increase in the amount of turpen-
tine produced, but it is a most important
South. Every one knows that trees from
which turpentine has been extracted by
the old method-"boxed" timber it is
called-soon die from the wounds inflic.

On the other hand is not fatal to the
hfe of the tree. and does very little dam

it writes about things within it's knowl-

as the following will show:
THE whole South has gone mad over
the cotton speculation, and to this fact
alone is due the ability of the leaders
to pump enough more hot air into their
balloon to lift it above the 14-cent point
the highest price made for cotton since
tho Civil War. They may be able 10
peg it up a little higher, but that will
only make the inevitable collapse all the

DEATH OF MRS. HARRIS.

The death of Mrs. Carrie Jenkins Har-
ris will be regretted by wide circle of
friends in North Carolina and by the
newspaper fraternity. She was native
of Granville, graduated with honor and
first devoted herself to teaching music
in Wilson Collegiate Institute. She was
an excellent teacher, brilliant and accom-
pl;shed. While there she married Mr..
Cicero w. Harris, at that time editor of
the Wilmington Star. Later she estab-
lished the South Atlantic Magazine, q
literary monthly that published many ar
ticles of literary and historical merit.
For twenty years she has been engaged in
newspaper and literary work in Washing
ton and was at one time 2 correspondent
OF this paper. About two years ago she
edited and published book called state
Trials in which the trials OF several his
book was we'll received. During the Buff
falo Exposition she was connected with
the press bureau and at the time OF her
death was assisting Mr.. p. V. DeGraW
in the press work for the Louisiana Elk
position.
Mrs. Harris had read much and travel
cd in Europe and all portions Of America
She had high gifts as . letter writer
and her letters from Greece and other
European countries were charming de-
scriptions of the customs and manners
Of the people. She loved art ard music
and was proficient in both. She forlu-
erly wrote much for North Carolina news.
papers and was as we'll posted on North
Carolina politics as any man. She loved
her State, its history, it's traditions and
its people and hoped to return here to
srend her last days. About three weeks
ago she sustained serious injuries by
falling down an embankment near the
Baltimore and Ohio depot in. Washington
City, she seemed to be recovering, but
was suddenly stricken and passed away.
She was about ffty-six years OF age.
