KANSAS SALT.
Some Interesting Facts about the Salt Industry in Kansas. What the Chemistry Department is Doing.
A few years ago it was supposed that the great salt marshes in the the extreme north of the state and in the Cimarron valley, on the border of the Indian Territory, would at some time be utilized for the production of salt. More recently however borings have disclosed that there are solid beds of rock salt at depths of from 300 to 1,000 feet below the surface. One of the richest borings was made in Ellsworth county and the salt analyzed in the chemical laboratory at the University was found to be of excellent quality. In Hutchinson, Kingman, Sterling, Lyons, Kanapolis and Wellington the industry has since been developed. In some cases as at Kingman, Lyons and Kanapolis the salt is mined by means of a shaft, while at other places, notably at Wellington, Hutchinson and Anthony water is forced into the well and the saturated brine that comes out is boiled down till the salt crystallizes out. Two methods of boiling are in use, the ordinary one in which heat applied directly to the pan evaporates the water, and the "grainer" process in which steam pipes are immersed in the brine and thus evaporation is produced.
The oldest salt works are in Saline county. Here the water of a shallow well is evaporated by solar heat.
The chemistry department is engaged in making analysis of the brines from the different localities and of the salt obtained by its evaporation All three localities have been visited, and the process of salt making has been studied on the ground. Mr. Case is assisting in the examination of these specimens. The whole subject, when properly worked up, will be published in a report to the State Board of Agriculture. From the analysis that have been made it is shown that Kansas salt is as good as any in the country. Some crystalline lumps that have been obtained from the mines, are of exceptional purity. Indeed so pure is some of this salt, that it is ground and sold directly for dairy purposes without any purification.
The most powerful competitor for the market in the west is the Michigan field, and they have the advantage of cheap fuel from the immense pine forests of that region. Notwithstanding this, by the use of "black" from Kansas mines as fuel, the cost of evaporation is reduced to a minimum, and the industry is increasing in importance in this state.

After listening to Chancellor Snow's lecture Tuesday night, one is apt to ask his friend at meeting. "Friend how are your corpuscles?" The ready answer will surely come, "Thanks friend, in perfect condition, for I have regulated my whole system with Raymond's Little Liver Granules." See, patronize home industries.
