more important uses.

was in North Carolina that the first
extensive development OF the naval
stores industry occurred. The records
show that from l76S TO l770 the av-
erage exports OF naval stores TO Eng
land included SSH barrels OF crude
turpentine, 20.646 barrels OF pitch and
1896 barrels OF tar. Most OF the
crude was shipped 10 England for dis
tillation through the ports OF VIII
mington and Newbern.
The supplanting OF the ironl retort
by the copper still In 1884 greatly
increased the output OF volatile oil
and gave much impetus TO the indus

over one-half OF the production In
North Carolina was distilled at home.
Then, because OF the poor market for
resin, the stills were transferred from

onslaught upon longleaf pine forests

North Carolina reached It's maxi
mum In naval stores production In
1S79-S0, with an expectation OF 6,279-.

barrels OF resin. A comparison OF
this great expectation with n total pro-
duction In North Carolina In 1908 OF

the exhaustion OF the long-leaf pine In
that state. South Carolina attained
It's maximum output OF naval stores

North Carolina. The invasion OF new
forests OF virgin timber brought Geor-
gia TO the front a few years later, but

PATIEN MAY BE
CAUSE OF rise
Reported That the Well Known Specu-
Iator is Again Manipulating
Cotton Prices.

New York, May 10.-A report that
James A. Patten had once more be-
come an active bull on the cotton
market accompanied a rise of sixteen
points to 1856 in the July option yes
terday. After the memorable campaign
Of last year, which put the staple to
twenty cents and led to the indict-
ment of eight big corporations, includ-
ing James A. Patten, for an alleged
conspiracy in restraint Of trade, Pat
ten announced that he was through
with the speculative markets forever.
Recently, however, he had confer
ence lasting several hours with Eu-
gene G. Scales, who is believed to be
taking a prominent part in the mar
ket on the bull side, and this has
given color to the rumor that he had
again felt the call.
Those who knew Patten best
though, scout the idea, on the ground
that a man of his ability would not
try to conduct an aggressive cam
paign in cotton prices so high. If
Patten is in the market now he has
been in for months.
