vast numbers of the latter and of the
fishes themselves were not continually

fill up all the waters. For example, man

Goldfish from the sea around the shores of
Newfoundland. But even that quantity
seems small when we consider that each
cod yields about $4,000, 600 eggs each
season. and that even 100000 have
been found in the roe of single cod.
Were the G0,000,000 cod taken on the
coast of Newfoundland left to breed, the
100000 females producing 5000, 900
eggs every year, it would give a yearly
addition of 100000, ZOO, 100000 young
Goldfish.
Other fish, though not equaling the
cod, are wonderfully productive. A
herring weighing six or seven ounces is
provided with about 80 600 eggs. After
making all reasonable allowances for the
destruction of eggs and the young, it has
been calculated that in three years a
single pair of herrings would produce
154 100000. Button calculated that if
pair of herrings could be left to breed
and multiply undisturbed, for a period
OF twenty years, they would yield an
amount of fish equal in bulk to the globe
on which we live.-Scientific American.
