Gentlemen: In your paper of the 18th inst q writer
under the signature of Junus Expresses doubts whe-
thcr the statcmcnttro the Kannwha Register, giving
tho quantity Of Salt weighed 81 inspected on ana wfa
for the quarter ending March lth 1890 (vz $50 I25
bushels be correct This statement was furnished hy
the Inspector, whose duty 1t is to keep regular en-
tries of all salt weighed anu inspected by him. aud
must be correct; for it furnishes the data from which
the manufacturer receives his pay But sir this quar-
ter of which Junus speaks is the least productive OF
any in the year, it embraces the month Of JGnuc-
ry which time nearly all the furnaces are thrown
idle for several weeks lie is little acquainted with
the great ofthis section ohe State fhc be
surprised at the quantity above named For sir, do
not hesitate to say, Kanawha could produce two mil
lions Of bushels of salt annually, with great ease if
the western country demanded it. Her coal banks
incXhaustblc, and yet VIC know no limit to the
quantity of water. Many furnaces produce so bush
els per day, and some of them so. That the quaint
ty manufactured might exceed the western con-
sumption, the manufacturers lave agreed among
themselves, for tho ensuing three years to limit the
quantity to about 900 600 bushels annually; but in DO
ing many furnaces thrown idle and other:
greatly circumscribcd in quantity.
