The author briefly reviews the early history of the industry and 

 its development in the State. Considerable attention is given to a 

 discussion of the methods of manufacture, costs of operation, yields, 

 market value of the products, and uses to which they are put. Similar 

 reports in other forest industries in the State would be gladly welcomed.
