PINE OIL HAS
MANY USES
Former Waste Product a
Valuable Commodity.
Forest Service Bulletin.)

A striking example of a seemingly
useless waste product of the forest
which has developed into q market
able commodity of no small impor-
lance is what is known as pine oil.
The crude wood turpentine obtained
from the steam distillation of GER
tain species of pine must be refined
with considerable care before it can
be sold in competition with gum
spirits, the true turpentine of COM
merce BY Redistribution with steam
this crude product is usually separ-
ated into two substances. The first,
which is the larger fraction, con-
sists almost entirely of the product
known technically as "pinene. This
clsoely resembles gum turpentine eX-
cept for a barely perceptible differ
enee in odor. The other fraction is
product somewhat thicker and
heavier than turpentine, with a yell
low color and a very pleasant odor.
This is known as pine oil.
Formerly this by-product had no
market and was either burned or
sold for almost nothing in order to
get rid of it. 1t was realized how
ever, that it was extremely poor
business to waste three or more gal
Ions of oil for every cord of wood
without knowing certainly whether
the oil was of value, and it was
clearly up to the chemist to find
uses for pine oil, and to the sales
man to create market.
Pine oil is now sold in tank car
lots to manufacturers of roofing
paints and varnishes Considerable
quantities are consumed in the man
ufacture of insulating materials, me-
tai polishes, and cheap perfume. 1t
has been found to yield very cheap1y
"terpene hydrate,' a drug which at
present is manufactured by somewhat
costly methods. Pine oil has also
been suggested as an excellent sol
vent for varnish gums for the pro-
duction of light colored varnishes.
Further investigation may even lead
to its use as a raw material in the
production of artificial camphor.
Thus, from worthless product,
pine oil has SO much increased in
value that refined grades may now
be sold for from 40 to SO cents a
gallon. The very lowest grades
sell for about 10 cents a gallon.

ELLAVILLE LACKS
RESIDENCES FOR RENT

Ellaville, Ga, Sept. S.-(SpeciaD
This city is building up. Among
the building operations going on in
Ellaville are a handsome two-story
brick business house on the corner
of the public square and Broad street,
and two nice residences. The bust
ness house is being built by Mr.. John
Williamson. The residences are for
Mr. Chas Rainey and Mr.. Emmett
Duncan. The latters new home is
nearly completed. There is an UNI
satisfied demand for houses for rem
tai, some who desire to remove their
families here being unable to find a
home. One remarkable thing is that
there is but one frame business
house in town.
