It is water that contains too much dissolved c^Jcium and magnesiurt^ salts. Hard water becomes soft when the calcium and magnesium are traded for soft sodium. This takes place in a ^household water softener through a simple chemical exchange. The Water Conditioning Research council, on the. occasion of National Soft Water Week, Sept. 420 to 28, points out that the natural water supply of 85 percent of the country is hard.
