About 22.5 per cent of the total production of this plant is dried this way. Refined salt is for the most part kiln-dried. After being dried t he salt passes over one of several kinds of screens from which it falls through chutes to a series of bins, where it is sorted as to size a nd grain. From one of these bins, salt is drawn off and mechanically mixed with 0.02 per cent potassium iodide to m a ke the iodized table salt. Mechanical mixers also incorporate one per cent filler with t he salt to be used for table purposes, to prevent absorption of moisture and consequent hardening.
