or twenty years, at the present rat or

yellow pine of the South, one of Am
lea's, most useful forest wees will, be
nearly exhausted, ay the experts, of
the United State forest service. , II
these pine forests are wtped out one
of the South's Important industries
will die the production of the so
called naval stores. '
The lumber of the Southern yellow.
pine brings 15 to 35 per thousand
feet its turpentine 56 cents per gal-
ion, its rosin from $4.35 to I6.l per
-' ZH v pounas, ana iu v"-" --
' pounds. An of these prices are gradu
l ally becoming higher and higher - on
account of the Increased demand and
the scarcity of the products. Former-
ly. turpentinec ould be purchased for
SO cents a gallon. Now 66 ctnts must
' be paid at wholesale, and the consutn-

SERIOUS SHORTAGE AHEAD.
In the face of these fast increasing
t prices, penple are still found who say
that there Is yet an Inexhaustible sup
ply of yellOTV pine in the South, and
that talk about a famine is unwar-
c trxrm u' 1 1 1 iiHv ja L Liiiic-a w
V.,,t e,ih cmtompnts are not Justl-
t fled by conditions and the yellow pine
.lumbering industry will soon be in the
iace of a serious shortage unless de
eded changes are made in the present
' methods, and unless valuable products
now going, to waste are utilized. The
long-loaf pine In a slow-growing tree
and does not make timber with any
where near the rapidity that it is be
ing cut. The situation calls for mak
,Jng4he very best use of the present
. supply.
'i There are at present In the woods
of the South vast Quantities of pine
, Jogs and tall stumps left as a result
of careless lumbering In the past. This
material Is rich In turpentine and
' could be made to yield from ten to fif
teen gallons of retlncd spirit per cord.
"Besides this, there is a great waste at
the sawmills, In the form of slabs,
edgings, and sawdusU all f which
;"must have a value, but at present is,
for the most part, simply burned to
. get It out of the way. In fact, not more
than 50 per cent, of the tree as It
'stands In the forest comes to the mar;
ket in the form of valuable materials.
SURPRISING WASTE. .

Southern yellowpine was some twelve
.billion board feet. A conservative estl
nvate of the actual amount of turpen
tine alone, to say nothing of wood fi
lter and other materials, which couM
-bep roduced from the waste wood of
this one year, would place the amount
at not less than thirty million gallons.
' ifThls is a surprising figure, when it
.. 1m Mmam)urA.l that It PftnFMdnt An
mount almost equal to the present
Annual production of gum spirits In
this country. If this product w re ex
tracted from the wood and sold at
even the current price of good wood

easily $14,400,000
flMlen have realised for some time
that an enormous waste of valuable
substances Is going on, end a few
have succeeded in extracting the tur
pentine and placing on the market
a .material or a rainy gooa quality. Jn
the majority of cases, however, the ar
ticle has been of an inferior grade)
due generally to the fact that the
. technical methods used have been
faulty. As a result of this, wood tur
pentine is at prexent often considered
: M an adulterated material, or at best
as a poor substitute for gum spirit.-).
It Is true that in some cases these
opinions are well founded, but inferi
or products have put an unnecessary
damper on the "hole industry.
' VALUABLE KKSLTLTS.
v The, section of wood chemistry ol
the forest service has lately ba in
vestigating this subject, and some val
uable results have been obtained, it
has been found that for the recovery
of turpentine from waste wood, ths
team distillation process is f,ir super,
lor to that of distilling tin; wood (It.

doubtless get out a creditable paper
during the soseion.- .
Only three cases of violating the
revenue laws have been sent up to
the United States Court from this
county since the last term of the
court In April one for working in' a
distillery and two for retailing.
Cherokee's Court of General Ses
sions will convene on the 28th of this
month, which means that the law
yers of the Gaffney bar will be un
able to attend the State - fair, which
will be going oo at the same time.
The lawyers here are thinking se
riously of applying to Judge C. T.
Bridges for an order enjoining the
holding of the tpvo events simultane
ously. The Gaffney board of trade held an
Important meeting Friday night. A
committee was appointed to confer
with tho board of public works and
ask that bodyT to order an election
for the purpose of,, voting bonds to

"the United States-The Financial
and Economic State of the Country
; Era of Great National Pros
perity Predicted For Chile.
'New York, Oct. 1$. Assurances of
an altogether new and extensive mar
ket for American raw cotton were
made to-day by 8enor Adolfo Ortuaar,
the consul general of Chile In thla
city, who has Just issued an official
commercial reference work of 60
pages, enUtled "Chile of To-Day," un
dersubvention of hia government
Tne representative of the- South
American republic declare that, the
time Is most opportune for the entry
into Chile, In exceedingly large quan
tities, of baled cotton from the United
States, provided that American capi
talists establish cotton manufactories
in Chile on a large scale. Haw cotton
is now Imported into that, county In
limited quantities, but Senor Ortuaar
is of the opinion that; the American
product would enjoy , a most extra
ordinary market there upon the com
mencement pf mills backed by both
American and Chilean capital. , An
enterprise of this character, the con
sul general believes, -would command
the moral support of the government,
as the establishment of cotton tex
tile factories at Valparaiso, Antofo
gasta, Talcahuano and other Impor
tant centres would materially lessen
the entry into Chile of manufactured
cotton goods from Europe, which last
year amounted to $11,600,000,
A similar venture undertaken but a
few years ago for the refining of sugar
In Chile has yielded Its backers tre
mendous profits. Until comparative
ly recent date, the southernmost
American republic Imported all sugar
consumed therein from abroad, but
since the establishment of refineries,
the entry of the finished product has
ceased, and only the unrefined sugar
is now brought Into the Country.
Startling revelations of the advan
tage that has been gained , over the
trade of the United States in South
America by German. French, English,
Belgian and other European compe
tition are contained in the compen
dium Issued by Senor Ortuzar, who
is regarded an authority upon the
commerce of his. country. Y
ECLIPSING THE UNITED STATES.
According to carefully compiled and
very complete statistics of the foreign
trade of the republic that are included
in the publication, the European
countries named have succeeded, ef
fectually, in excluding the steel and
iron interests of the United States
from the markets of Chile.
Of the importation of steel rails
into that republic during tha last
year, which totaled approximately
$2. .100,000, Great Britain captured
business that aggregated her manu
facturers $1,523,592, Germany follow
ing with a custom valued at $504,580,
while the United States secured or
ders to the extent of but $38,984.
Hridge material valued at $496, 2S0
was entered, but In this business the
American trade did not participate at
all; the Creussot Interests. France,
having supplied more than half the
quantity imported and Great Britain
and France the remainder.
As an example of the insignificant
proportion realized by the United
States in the trade' of Chile in wrought
and unwrought Iron, which reached a
total of $5,832, 358, less than $200,000
worth of that material entered the
republic from this country. No blajk
corrugated iron (unpalntcd, non-tinned
or non-galvanlzed) was sent from the
United States last year, although the
Importations from England amounted
to $173,313. Nor did the American
mllU figure In the entry of unpalnted
smooth iron, which totaled $783,687,
and of which aggregate the British
Interests succeeded In bringing in
$639,807 worth.
Against totals of $1,640,661 and
$1,172,631, shown by Great Britain
and Germany, -respectively, in the Im
portation of Iron and steel, In bars,
the sum of $131,589 represents the
business obtained by the United
States. British smooth, painted, tinned
und galvanized Iron, valued at $197,
!40, entered Chile, with the United
States as a competitor to the extent
of entries totaling $144. The aggre
gate of tin iplato Imported from the
United States was $45 during the en
tire year, while the shipments, from
Great Brltsln reached a total of
$294,197.
As a conservative estimate places
$25,000,000 as the sum of Chile's
requirements In structural steel and
other building material, to be used
In the rebuilding of the sections of
Valparaiso and thee environs of th it
city destroyed by the great earth
quake of Inst yetr, the possibilities of
profit to the principal Iron and sterd
nations of Europe become apparent.
AN AUTHORITATIVE WORK.
Senor Artuzar's book is an authori
tative, comprehensive treatise upon
the internal rcaoiurces of Chile, her
rapidly increanlng foreign trade and
the commercial, admlnjjstrativo and
economic condition of the republic,
capecial attention being paid therein
to the present state of agriculture
and mining. Included in the work Is
a complete directory of agricultural
planters, mining and other industrial
proprietors, wholesale and retail mir
chants located throughout Chile and
the exporters Hnd importers at the
principal ports.
In a concise review of the financial
and ccuiioink- Ulo of his country at
the present time, the author treits
as follows of the effect upon the coun
try's prosperity of tho earthquake of
last year:
"Few yearn have had so many -vicissitudes
and alternatives of pros
perlty and ruin In store for Chile as
1906, and none perhaps has left such
marked traces behind It.
"On rte side a part of the princi
pal harbor of Chile Valparaiso was
practically destroyed by an earth
quake which desolated a part of the
central valley-of Chile and demolished
titles which It had taken centuries io
form. On the other hand, a, beneil
int Privltlenco compensated largely
for this disaster, for the year of the
Valparaiso earthquake was a year of
the greatest progress and welfare and
the most prosperous one an to busi
ness, , .,.-' ,:',. 'I't.,'; '" .4!;.v'-,; '
"All the Chilean export products
had a considerable rise in the world's
markets, and especially nitrate end
copper reached, during the last few
months, prices almost unknown be
fore. . Consequently, money has been
flowing Into ths Chilean markets at a
rate that ths present situation, after
the earthquake,, Is such that the d.
mouthed houses icaa be easily rebuilt
with the ordinary resource f ; the
country. ' Furthermore, the catastro.
ph of last AuKust revealed the soul
of tne "countryr" On"tliaf occasion' If
wa clearly to b seen that the ChlN
earn form a welj ortanltcd nation, not
r .. I .- . 1 r . -
in? to fj! tut UU...S up v-..i
renewed fervor." ,
cile's Govrxxrr-cx. .
Interesting facts are presented In
the book regarding the stability and
fidelity of, the governing element of
the country's population. All the
Chilean national administrations,
Senor Ortuzar asserts, have been
marked by the scrupulous honesty of
publ!cservants. '
.Upon this point the book chronicles
the following; -
"Never has a president of the re
public or a minister of State been ac
cused of conversion of funds. On the
contrary, it often happens that "presi
dents retire from- power Jn poverty,
by reason of .navlng neglected their
private affairs, during their adminis
tration of the government
; "During the civil war of 1890 the
administration devoted Itself heartily
to the task of ttOJitary mobilisation;
tho party which supported President
Balnvaiceda was defeated, and. when
the victors look possession of ' the
capital, and ,of the government, there
was not found In the Ts.rchives of the
government a single account, a single
payment, .which wag .not .audited, nor
one which could have bean made, in
the slightest degree, 4 reproach to'
the fallen administration. Further-,
more, there was , not a single high
functionary who profited by the dis
order to make his fortune. , , 1
"The Interest on foreign loans and
obligations of the State has always
been promptly met, It has been with
Chile matter of pride never to de
fault on contracts of any kind, cot
even in- moments of financial diffi
culty. This Is dally a matter of more
importance among nations, especially
now that It. appears to be an estab
lished point that the collection of debt
may enter into (he category of diplo
matic negotiations."
.Reviewing the administrative . his
tory of the country from the time of
Portales, practically the founder of
the nation, who may be termed the
"Washington of Chile," it Is pointed
out that many of. the Chilean leaders
present likenesses In character and
strength of purpdse to the foremost
public men of the United States.
An era of great national prosperity
Is predicted for the republic by Senor
Ortuzar, who comments thus upon
the administration of President Pedro
Montt, who was lately seated in of
fice: "Supported by a really national
party, President Montt was elected by
an enormous majority. He broke the
lines of the ancient historical parties
to form with these a Arm government
body, from which the present admin
istration derives its much valued
strength.
"The schools and the railways have
been the chief pre-occupatlon of the
present Executive during his long pub
lic career, who, for thirty years, has
been one of the most prominent men
in Chile. First In the Chamber of
Deputies, then In the Senate, in the
Council of State, at, different times
Secretary of State during the last five
administrations, he distinguished him
self always by his spirit of Justice, his
austerity -and activity. To-day, raised
by a wave of popularity to the Presi
dency of .the Republic, he can realize a
vast programme of work during his
government a programme which,
however' extensive and fraught with
difficulties, will be successfully car
ried out by the President, who Is en
dowed .with two great qualities
method and perseverance.
"The son of Manuel Montt, one of
the most illustrious Presidents of the
Chilean Republic (1851 to 1861), the
President Montt of our days found
in his father and in his home a school
of austerity, work and method."
