Salt and Ice.

Does salt melt ice? In this question
there is but a half truth suggested,
since salt no more melts ice than ice
melts salt Heat is the main agent
whereby a body passes from a solid
to a liquid state. 1t has been well
known, however, for centuries that GER
tain solid bodies when brought togeth-
err (as here. salt and ice) have such a
chemical affinity for one another. e.,
their tendency to combine and melt is
so great-that heat is drawn from all
surrounding sources as we'll as from
the store latent in these substances
themselves.
When this is the case they become
chilled and make freezing mixture,
the temperature dropping till the heat
drawn from the two sources-external
and internalis sufficient to keep pace
with the rate of melting.
Fahrenheit in 1862 made use of this
very melting mixture when he secured
what he thought was absolute sold
thereby marking the freezing point on
his thermometer at 30 degrees.-An-
sWers.
