Cho Wonderful Fecundity of Fishes, In

According to the naturalists, scor-
pion will produce 65 young; a common
fly will lay 144 eggs, leach $50, and a
spider no. A hydrachna produces 600
eggs and frog LOO. A female moth
will produce 1,1OO eggs, and tortoise
1000 A gall insect has laid $4,000 eggs;
shrimp, 5000; and 10000 have been
found in the ovary Of an ascaris.
One naturalist found over $4,000 eggs
In lobster, and another over $1,000.
An insect very similar to an ant (1HuttIIa)
hasproduced $4,000 eggs in a single day;
and Leuwenhoeck seems to compute A.
000,00O to the crabs share.
Many fishes produce an incredible
number of eggs. More than Sc, 900 have
been counted in herring; 1000 in a
smelt; 100000 in sole; 1,13O, 900 in
roach; 5000, 600 in sturgeon; 342, 900 in
carp; $4,000 in tench; SAG, 900 in a
mackerel, 992, 900 in "a perch, and 1885,
600 In founder. But of all the fishes
hitherto discovered, the cod seems to be
the most prolific.
One naturalist computes that this
fish produces more than 1856, 900 eggs,
and another as many as 9,444,OO A
rough calculation has shown that, were
one per cent. of the eggs of the salmon
to result in full-grown fish, and were
they and their progeny to continue to
increase in the same ratio, they would,
in about sixty years, amount in bulk to
many times the size of the earth. Nor
Is the salmon the most prolific of species.
In 9 yellow perch weighing 81 ounces
have been counted 9,949 eggs, and in a
smelt ten inches and a half in length,
25,141.
