WEIGHT POSSIBILITIES or CARP.


If wen Fed and Treated. They Attain to
Enormous Size.
Big fish chronicles are always inter-
esting. Attention is just now being be-
slowed upon the weight possibilities Of
carp. These fish are VIGOROUSLY long
lived, and, provided they are not caught
before they have had a chance of living
long, and, provided again, they have
few enemies and solicitous keepers to
supplement their natural food supply
regularly, it is only natural that they
should grow to relatively great size.
Under normal conditions, of course, they
do not exceed few pounds, and, as it
is the normal conditions that prevail,
discussion Of what they might attain
may be regarded by not few as some
thing Of a futility. Still. they are some
times placed in peculiarly favorable cir
cumstances. and, as the question is
really concerned with what weight they
can reach, it is not such futility after
all
We must go abroad for the biggest
carp of which angling history has tc
tell In private pond in Saxony there
used to be pair of breeding carp whose
united weight in Saxony measure a per
cent heavier than English reached 81
pounds The male was 4a pounds and
the female As pounds By good living
and attention they even exceeded this.
In IL years the male put on pounds
and the female 70 pounds. The pond
which afforded a home for these crea-
lures was a famous one. In one year
1900 pounds of carp were taken from il
Ito say nothing Of tench and jack. Ii
this same pond-which, by the way, GOV.
cred II acres-the proprietor had left
several carp for breeding. Five of these
weighed 103 pounds Saxon, and the
largest of the five, Spiegel carp, aged
rs years, drew in the scale 31l5 pounds
English. The age of the two first alluded
to could not be estimated. They were on
the estate when it was purchased from
another family, 90 years before.
We have never to our personal knowl-
edge known carp that exceeded 90
pounds to be caught in English waters.
A brace which weighed 80 pounds was
once presented to the late Lord Eyre
mont A curious thing about these big
fish is their tameness. Mr.. Pennell tells
us he has seen carp in the garden ponds
of Rotterdam eagerly following visitors
about to be fed, while one immense fei.

ly 100 yards along the side of the bank
until his stock of bread had run ont.
This fish, he adds, must have weighed
10 pounds. Their rate of growth has
been approximately computed to be
3 pounds during the first six years AND
6 pounds before the tenth year. Pail

The Farmers institute Of Mills coun-
ty, Ia, has been very usefully employ
ing itself in listening to a paper by one
of its members on the price of corn in
that county for the past 90 years. There
were a good many very decided fluctua-
tions, but the average price for four
years, 1867 SO, was just 80 cents,
and the average price for four years,
lS92-S-4-5, was 3724 cents. This is an
advance of quarter in spite of the de-
cline of silver and the "crime of 1878, !"
and all the other things which the cheap
money men urge in explanation of de-
clines i'll prices, some of which, as in
the case of corn, did not occur. In the
above computation the average for the
past four years is affected by the very
low price of 1895, one-fifth below that
of 1894, which no one denies is due to
the enormous crop of 1895 and not to
any money changes. journal of COM

Testing water.

Into a perfectly clean bottle, having a
stopper Of ground glass, put five ounces
of the water TO be tested. To the water
add ten grains (by weight of pure,
granulated white sugar. Cork tight and
set in a window, exposed freely to light,
but not to the direct rays of the sun.
Do not disturb the bottle and keep the
temperature as near 20 degrees f. as
possible.
If the water contains organic matter,
within AS hours an abundance of whit
ish specks will be seen floating about,
and the more organic matter the more
specks. In week or ten days, if the
water is very bad, the odor Of rancid
butter will be noticed on removing the
stopper.
The little specks will settle to the bot
tom, where they will appear as white,
fiaky masses. Such water should not be
used for drinking purposes. -Philadel-
