EeeunAliy OF the oyster.


To render the ideas Of germ-fecundity and
productiveness of the oyster easily understood
Prof. Mobius makes the following comparison
between tho oyster and man: According ia
Wappaus for every 1000 men thoro are 347
births. According to Brockh out of every
1000 men born 55l arrive ut maturity, that
is, live to be 20 years or more Of age; thus, on
an average, 3l.7 children are produced from
554 mature men, or go children from 1000
mature men. Since 1000 full-grown oysters
produce 440, 100000 of germs, then the-germ
fecundity of the oyster is to the germ
fecundity of man as 44O,OOO,OOO to G2.6, or as
702S,7 54 to l. On tho other hand, the
number which arrives at maturity Is $40, 00l
times as great with mankind as with the
oyster, for OF 1000 human ombryos brought
into the world 55i arrive at maturity, or of
4i0,00O00O newly born 2i37GO,0O0 would live
to grow up, while OF 1i0 100000 young oysters
only 421 ever become capable of propagating
their species. The proportion then Is AL 70
243,7GO,000, or as to $40, O01."
