To get or make salt from sea-water by pouring the sea-water over smooth sand letting it dry and repeating the process till the sand becomes thoroughly saturated with salt. This sand is then collected in a heap; more water is poured upon it and the outflow, thick with salt, is poured into bamboo troughs to dry in the sun. Crystallized salt is the result, which, scooped out and collected, is then ready for use or sale. Nagabódbod silá sa baybáyon. They are making salt from sea-water on the beach.
