Tables 5 and 6 show the growth and present magnitude of the tur- 

 pentine and rosin industry in the United States and the large amount 

 of capital involved in producing and exporting naval stores. It 

 would seem from Table 6 that the production of turpentine and rosin 

 in this country has reached its maximum, and this conclusion is 

 further borne out by a survey of the stumpage supply still available 

 for naval stores operations (p. 41). Table 7 shows the exports of 

 naval stores by States.
