NATION OF SALT EATERS.

A Barrel IA Year Is Consumed fer
Every Three Persons.
The United States consumes 26,S72,-
700 barrels Of salt annually, or a bar
rel for every three persons IN the
land. Last year 1t went abroad for
only 1,151,133 barrels. In 1880 63.5
per cent of the salt used in cur coun-
try was Of home production. Last year
95.7 per cent of the product consumed
was produced within the borders of
this country. In 1880 the consumption
in this country wars only 1884. 263 bar
rels. Thus we see that the people OF
the United States are using annually
three times as much salt as they used
twenty-six years ago.
Only 1861 eco barrels were pro-
duced in this country in 1880, and the
consumers were forced to go abroad
for 3,427, $50 barrels. Last year the
total production at home was 25,9e6,-
100 barrels.
The chief salt-producing States are
Michigan and New York. Statistics
recently gathered by the government
show that the combined output Of these
two States amounts to more than two
thirds Of the total production Of the
United States.
No attempt has ever been made to
ascertain what per cent of the salt
consumed In the United States is used
for culinary purposes. The annual
output Is consumed In the Industries of
meat-packing. fish curing, dalrytng and
the Ike. The chlOrination OF gold ores
demands a large quantity. and great
quantities of salt In the form OF brine
are used In the manufacture of soda
ash, caustlc soda and other salts Salt
Is cheap. The average price for 1905
was a little over % cents a barrel,
which Is lower than that reported In
any previous year. Dry salt, of course,
brings a higher price than brine. Ths
average price for dry salt last year
was 31.51 cents a barrel.
