Image Title: "A
Pictorial Album of the Naval-Stores Industry"
Image Caption: Caption
1: Front and side views of faces showing a jump streak, a narrow band of unchipped
wood separating one season's chipping from the previous. The jump streak affords
a ledge so that all of the gum will not have to run over the old face before reaching
the cup. When cups are not elevated every year, loss scrape is produced with a
jump streak than if no jump streak were employed.
Caption 2: Twenty miles north of Pensacola, Florida, on State Route #7. Escambia
County. End of 2nd year working of longleaf pine showing scraped face and jump
streak for next year. NS-1 Lib. No. 5.21213.
