Summer bathing iz the lake is not only a luxury, but also a great noselty, be- case of its buoyant properties, while the waters ar very efficacious in cur- ing chronic and cutancous diseases, making the lake n great sanitarium doring the summer season.

In tho spring the water covers the low fiat shore, and during the summer and fall 1t recedes and leaves a deposit of several inches of while crystalized salt, which is shov- eled up and carted away for use in all dowestic purposes and for the reduc- tion of ores.
