The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1919-06-28
MICHIGAN LEADS IN SALT.
With New York Close Competitor
Ohio Is Third.

Because of the universal use of salt
in food and in food preservation and the
lack Of any substitute its output would
be reduced only by most unusual con-
ditions. There is always general ten
dency toward an increase in production
in the United States on account of the
steady increase in population. The in
cressing use of salt by chemical and
other industries helps to maintain a
larger production from year to year. In
view OF the shortage of labor and other
difficulties which hampered many indus
tries during the war, reduction in the
output of salt might have been expect
ed, but there was nevertheless a con
siderable increase. Figures complied I'M
der the direction of r, w. Stone of the
United State geological survey, depart
ment of the interior, from reports fur
nished by all producers of salt in the
United States show total output of
7,23s,744 short tons, an increase of 260,
567 short tons, or per cent over the
output in 1917. The total value was
S26,e40,36l, an increase of 30 per cent
over the total value in 1917, which was
$l9,940,442.
The production Of salt in 1918, BY
states, is shown in the following table:

Electricity on the Farm.

1t is harvest time down in Kansas and
its biggest wheat crop is being gathered

Eleven million acres are ODE cut, and

is not the banner yield alone that will
make the harvest of 1919 memorable,
but the part electricity plays in its reap
ing
Kansas farmers are progressive and
not afraid Of the untried; they know a
good thing when they see it." Through
considerable part OF the wheat belt a
system of electric transmission prevails
by which not only harvesting but many
laborious farm processes are conducted.
Electricity pumps water, grinds feed
