There are two ways:

  1. Hollow out the stone to the form of a boat so that has more displacement then weight.
  2. Use pumice, a light weight volcanic stone that has lots of air bubbles in its structure.

A stone does not float because it is denser than water, meaning it weighs more than the water it displaces.

Yes, adding salt to water increases its density, which can make some objects that would normally sink, like eggs, float. By altering the density of the water, the buoyant force exerted on the object can be increased to make it float.
