codntry is only now beginning to mani
fest signs of recovering from the dis
astrous industrial effects.
Jamaica welcomed the mongoose
with open arms, for the losses incident
to the ratplague, including the cost of
the important trade of ''rat-catching,"
itself half a million of dollars, amount
ed to ruinous annual aggregate. Nor
did the carnivore disappoint the most
sanguine expectations. The animals
increased and multiplied marvefously,
and in ten years. time the island re-
sounded with the praises of the mon
goose. ~ /: -.
By that time the dreaded rats had
been practically exterminated. The
mongoose had done his work swiftly
and thoroughly. DR.. Morris, then di-
rector OF the government botanical
plantations, now Of Kew in London,
was authority for this, stating after
an official investigation that the re-
suits were most satisfactory, and that
the saving to plantations, directly
traceable to the diminution of rats,
amounted to an enormous round sum
almost equivalent to the actual losses
annually incurred before the animals

So far well. But nature had been
outraged. The mongoose proved-as

rather victim, survived, well and good.

islands most important and promis-
ing domestic industries have been
nearly ruined, and incalculable inan-
cial damage inflicted on it-all because
an ignorant but self-opinionated
sugar planter laid the fiattering unc-
ton to his soul that he had discov-
cred royal road to saving his cane
pieces from the depredations of rats.
Fortunately, nature is a benign mo Their
whose chastisements are inflicted in
loving kindness rather than anger and
never exceed the bounds of necessity.
Hence, the crisis over, the disturbed
balance of nature" is now calmly but
certainly readjusting itself. like the
needle of shaken compass. But the
facts of the case, briefly stated, will
be found of general interest as we'll
as serving to furnish a warning to
other countries and future genera
tons.
A quarter of a century ago Jamaica
was still f1ourishing sugar island, al
though the advancing shadow of the
substance of European bountyfed
sugar that has since fallen on the
West Indies with more or less fatal
force even then trailed up over her in
dustrial outlook. But in those days
the planter had other and more i'm
minent cares than the bounties, none
of which was more formidable than
the plague of rats that threatened de-
struction to his cane fields. Jamaica,
especially, was overrun with the crea-
lures. They >swarmed over the land
like locusts in Africa, until the very
existence of the sugar industry was
imperiled. In those days it had hap
pened that in a single night score OF
acres of magnificent cane fields had
been laid utterly waste by an invasion
of the ro6ents-so, at least, 1 have been
told.
At any rate, the plague was formid-
able enough, and in 1872, all normal ef-
forts having failed to reduce the evil,
one of the foremost planters, Mr.. W.
B. Espeut, conceived the brilliant idea
of pitting the mongoose against the
rats. And he carried it out; with what
result it is the purpose of this story
to briefly set forth. The rats were
wiped out, indeed; but so, also, was to
most alarming extent the fauna of
the island, what is called in natural
istic parlance "the balance of nature"
receiving so rude q shock that the

point, the former had to adapt them
selves 10 ot her diet and they did

them a greater menace to the island
than the rodents ever were.
8 And now for the aftermath. Poultry
rearing was one Of the most Important
Of the minor industries, and it was to
the domestic animals that the mon
goose first turned his attention after
the rats failed to supply his llecessi-
ties. And dolorous was the destruction
that he wrought. Entire poultry yards
were wiped out, and the industry was
seriously menaced. But once on
new scent, the mongoose- perhaps
fortunately for the island became
more and more catholic in his taste
and did not proceed to exterminate
the various Indigenous species one by
one with the answering determines
ton with which he had followed up the
rats at first. It soon became apparent
that other groups were diminishing,
particularly the birds and reptiles
and this opened up another phase of
menace to the island, in the form of a
threat against the very balance of
nature" itself, which was only too
swiftly and fatally realized.
The story from this point EDWARDS Of
the depredations of the mongoose, from
scientific point of view, would be too
lengthy and lacking in popular inter
est to be gone into in detail. Suffice it
that in surprisingly brief lapse of
time the Ave species of snakes and %
of lizards common. to the island had
been practically cleared out of exist
ence. Here and there individual speci-
mems were occasionally found; but as
occupants of the island they had dis
appeared. The same applies to the croc-
odiles, which had been formerly album
dant in the waters Of Jamaica. Sim
ilarly with the land and fresh-water
tortoises, and. above all. with the IA
nous sea orgreen turtles that gave life
to an important industry, to the eggs
of which the mongoose took only too
aptly.
The island was getting in bad way,
truly. But this is not all. The birds
suffered as much, especially the nu-
merous ground birds for which Jamaica
was famous. And the inevitable result
soon made itself felt. Nature began to
put in a protest against this disturb
ance Of her balance. This wholesale
destruction of the insectivorous birds
and beasts, besides affecting various
industries directly, as we have indi-
Gated, led to an excess of injurious in
sects which also commenced to affect
industries. Various insect pests APP
peared, particularly the pimento borer
and the cattle tick, which in short
time created grievous menace to the
