First Salt Merchants.

The Delaware Indians made salt from brine springs in New York state and sold 1t to settlers as early as 1870, making probably the first commercial production of salt in this country. The manufacture of salt by white people in the United States was begun near Syracuse, N. T., about 17S3. Salt is the most commonly used mineral In the world, and no useful mineral ex- cept coal, perhaps, occurs in greater abundance or is more widely distrib- uted in the United States.

A REDUCTION IN
ENGLISH RETAIL
SALE CHAMPAGNE
(By The Associated Press.

London, Nov. S.-Since Chancellor
Austen Chamberlain introduced his last
budget there has been marked reduc-
tion in the retail sale of champagne
and cigars in England.
Cigar merchants say that during the
recent months clearances from bond
and impOrtatiOns from Cuba have prac-
tically been suspended. The public, it
is stated, refuse to buy at the high
prices necessitated by the heavy
duty and the inflated cost of the
tobacco.
In 1914 a really good Havana cigar
could be bought at 40 shillings to 80
shillings hundred but today the cost
is more than five pounds hundred.
Wine merchants are little surprised
at the decline in the sale of champagne,
as prices have not been substantially
increased. In many cases growers have
shouldercd part of the duty imposed
by the budget in the hope Of maintain
ing the English demand.
