Someone who is described as the "salt of the earth" is considered to be a goodly person. Salt with earth in this case connotes an unaffected beneficence. Salt with water however has less favorable implications in certain parts of the United States, especially in Arizona and the West. Salt combined with water produces saline water and poses water quality problems in the region.
