by side with the growth of the salt manufacture in Cheshire, 

 I will here make no further reference to the matter, but will 

 conclude by pointing out that the growing demand for brine 

 will inevitably lead to the destruction of much surface pro- 

 perty in all salt districts of any extent, and this action of 

 fresh water upon beds of salt will ere long call for some 

 regulation by the State.
