Salt Evaporation a Big Industry. In the producticn of that indis- pensable condiment, salt, the United States is haprily indeper: of all other countgles. The 38,231,395 bar- relc of salt produced in 1515 by 14 states, Porto Rico, and Hawaii con- stituted 99 per cent of the salt con- sumed in the United States, and much more couid easily lhave been had the demand required it, to the United States Geolc: vey, Department of the Interior. Balt occurs naturally In two dis- tinct ways--as rock salt. in beds or associated with bedded or sedirzentary deposits, and in natural brines. The larger part of our salt is obtained by converting rock salt that ltes deep be- low the ear:h's surface into grtificial brines, which are pumped to the sur- face and there evaporated. Some idea of the quantity of salt evaporated from natural brines may be gained from statistics' of the output of New York, Michigan, and Kansas alone, three large ealt:producing states, for| the calendar year 1915. In Michigan, 6,708,261 barreis of evaporatcd sal baving a value of $3,635562. were preduced; in New York 3,443,404 bar- rels, valued at $1,729,43¢; and in Kan- sas, 1,901,756 barrels, valued at $696.060. - All Can Guess.
