Sok Discovery
Brought Boom
To Seaforth
(By C. S. BuPreck, inss) London Free,
At the ,same time as the land
back from the shores of Lake Erie
was being 'probed for deposits of
oil, Bruce County on Lake Huron
was being: drilled for stores of salt:
Wells had been found very early
at Goderich. A little later an ex-
tensive supply of salt was" discov-•
ered at Seaforth, which made this
village known to every salt user in
Ontario .some 80 or 90 years ago.
The reservoir of brine was found
by drilling to at depth .of 1.130 feet.
It was discovered that it came
from a stratum 6f rock salt 95 feet
Mid and of great extent., .The
brine that was obtained was very
pure. After `having been pumped
to the surface, the brine was con-
• veyed I to two large tanks which
held enough liquid for 48 hours'
boiling.
The boiling took place in sheds,
called salt -blocks, where. the evap'='
oratingpans-werekept hot by fires.
The residue -of -salt was then pack-
ed, chiefly_ in. barrels. Grocers
scooped it outf them and o n sold
it by pound.
ound.
This salt works was the largest
in the Dominion. It cotild make
300 barrels a day, 100,000 barrels
a year. Such a manufactory was
of considerable local importance
to Seaforth because it gave •Sverk
to 60 men.
Moreover as the fires for boil-
ing operations consumer nearly
8,000 full . cords of wood, that is,
sticks four feet long, farmers of
the neighborhood received a cash
income while they were clearing,
their land. They were paid at the
price of $2 a cord for good "beech,
birch and maple."
A visitor to the works in 1869,
reporting upon this early industry
by Lake 'Huron, was much im-
pressed, but he hoped that the pro-
prietors, Messrs. Coleman and
Gouinlock, made sufficient profits
without "salting" their customers.
Salt, used in that way, must have
had an evil meaning in• 1869.
