The manufacture of salt at
Turks Island and Salt Cay,n
said Capt. Chadwick of the
schooner Lizzie Wilson, ehas
much ofinterest to one who has
never seen the process, which,
by the way, is performed wholly
by nature, the wind and the sun
doing the work. The wind is
preferable as All agent. At Salt
Cay, where / loaded, there is a
salt pond of several acres in ex-
tent. 1t is divided into numer-
Gus square spaces by masonry 2
feet high. Water is admitted
from the sea to a reservoir, and
it's saline density tested by a
hydrometer. 1t is usually 10 de-
grees. From the reservoir the
sea water is admitted into the
brine pool which is about SO de-
grees, but is reduced by the adj
mixture to about 60 degrees. 1t
is then run into the pools by
small wheels like those of side
wheel steamer, placed on the
side of each pool and worked by
hand. Salt makes in about six
weeks. In the process of gran,
ulation the salt changes its color
first flesh, and then changing
to a beautiful pink. The strain
upon the eyes is very great
when looking into the beds.
When the crystal is formed or
the bottom the brine is pumped
out by a wheel. The salt is then
raked into heaps and put in
half bushel bags TO be loaded
The process is going on contin,
ually, and there is always plenty
of salt on hand. The rainy sea.
