lean sheepherder, charged with as
sault with intent to kill William Muir
ply, a Reno bartender, is being tried
before the district court of Washoe

SALT PRODUCTION
INCREASED IN 1914

The salt industry is in some re-
spects unique among the mineral in
dustries. Although most of the met
allie and of the other nonmetallic in
dustries reflect industrial world
conditions and sometimes sharply
fluctuate with them, the salt indus
try, presumably from its intimate
association with the food supply of
man, FORCES slowly but steadily ahead
and generally keeps pace with the
increase in population. There has
been a steady downward trend in the
cost of this most necessary COM
modify, owing to the abundant
sources of supply and also to the
great advances made in the last few
decades in methods of manufacture.
The widespread distribution of salt,
however, has led to great multiple
cation of manufacturing plants. so
that plant capacity has greatly out
stripped demand. This has tended
to lower prices and to increase great
ly efficiency o foperation in the
plants that have survived the keen
competition.
The salt production of the United
States in 1914 was the greatest yet
recorded, according to w. c. Phalea
of the United States geological ur-
vey, namely, ~34,S04,6S3 barrels Of
$50 pounds each, or 4,872,656 short
tons, valued at $~1O,271,35S. Com
pared with the production of 1913,
which was the largest previously re-
corded, there was an increase in pro-
duction of 405,3S5 barrels and of
$148,219 in value.
The domestic marketed production
of salt in 1914 was ~34,S04,683 bar
rels, and the imports were 934,319
barrels, the sun of the two quanti-
ties being ~35,739,OO2 barrels. This
figure, however, does not represent
the quantity consumed, for there
were exported 587,818 barrels, leav-
ing for home use 35,151,184 barrels,
an increase of 14S,485 barrels over
the consumption of 1913. The i'm
ports declined 171,147 barrels, COM
pared with 1918, but the exports in
creased 85,753 barrels. The import
ed salt constituted only 27 per cent
of the domestic consumption.
Salt occurs naturally in two dis
tinct ways, as rock salt in beds or
associated with bedded or sediment
airy rocks, and in the form of natural
brines or bitterns. 1t is prepared 20:
market by simply mining, crushing
and cleaning the rock salt, or by
evaporation, which may be either
natural, as when the suns heat is
utilized, or artificial, when steam or
direct heat is applied.

KENNEDY DISTRICT
COMING TO FRONT
TER ATTRACTS ATTENTION
TO CAMP

North, south, east and west Of
Winnemucca is the energy and prog
ress at work that makes mining
count and which is destined to make
Humboldt the banner mining county
of Nevada.
William Thomas, who is located N
the Kennedy district, is in town to
day from those diggings and brings
good news. He states that ONE 20
men are at work showing and prov
ing the worth of the district.

ing a plant with appliances which
he is confident will recover the val
ues of the ore at a low cost. Prov
ing a success of the Roylance proc
ess means that the great ore deposits
of Kennedy will be worked and give
employment to thousands of men and
likewise increasing business.
Recently A. Smith, who is largely
identified with Mccoy operations.
was in the district and from a new
discovery took a sample of a 25-ton
lot which he had run at the Murrev
smelter, with the striking return of
1852 per ton in gold, silver, lead and
copper values.
"This Murray test is bringing to
us, and for whom l am waiting, one
OF the most prominent mining engi-
neers in the west who will make IN
examination both of Mccoy and
Kennedy for one of the largest op-
Grating in the world.

The great rock salt mines OF Hun
gary are among the wonders of the
world, for the illimitable deposit Of
practically pure salt enables the work
men to cut il out in heavy blocks
much as marble is quarried, after
which it is loaded on trucks and sent
to the mills for grinding. Rock salt
Il may be said, constitutes the world
principal supply of refined salt, and the
Hungarian mines furnish a large
portion of this commercial necessity
Underground passages Of considerable
width, resembling streets, have been
cut at regular intervals, and the whole

near the Roumanian boundary a large
chamber, with benches and seats, has

fact it is known as the ballroom.
