DIscoURAGTNG TO BEAIN-woRKERs.-
doctrine of the survival of the fittest''
doesn't appear to be the rule among the
piscatorial tribes. For years it has been
asserted that the catfish eat the perch. and
now it has been discovered by a local
fisherman that the carp eat the catfish.
This is too bad, as thereby much otherwise
good food must 90 to waste, for nothing in
the animal kingdom has yet been found to
eat the carp-that is, not the second carp.
The first one might be eaten through mis-
take, or perhaps knowingly by a National
Guardsman at Santa Cruz, but the second
oh, no. If this order of things could be
reversed-if the catfish would only eat the
carp, and the perch the catfish, and then if
something really palatable would come
along and eat the mud-perch, and the fish
chowder business should stop at that, man
kind might be the gamer. But what is to
become of US when the catfish shall have
eaten all the perch, and then, in turn. be
swallowed up by the carp? Oh, yes, there
will still be the succulent sturgeon so it is
probebly all right.
