Fish That Go Forty Miles an Hour.

Fish That Go Forty 5ties nm MUIR
Few Of us have an accurate idea or
the rate at which fish swim. When we
say that a person is cas- fast as a por-
poIse.o we hardly associate n quick
rate Of swimming with that individual,
vet he and everybody else would Ike
to be able to get through the water as
rapidly. Porpoises have been seen to
dart round and round steamer travel
ing seventeen miles an hour, thus prov
Ing their capacity to swim at greater
rate than that.
The dolphin may be placed on a level
with the porpoise, but the bonito has
occasionally been known to approach
forty miles for short distances.
Herrings, in shoals, move steadily at
n rate between ten and twelve miles;
mackerel swim much faster, and both
trout and salmon go at a rapid pace
when migrating up stream for spawn
ing.
Whales are not fish in the scientific
sense. but it is interesting to note that
these monsters swim at a rate of six
teen miles an hour when excited. al
Though their ordinary speed Is estimat-
ed at between four and five miles.

rhe water carnivora.

she number of carnivorous creatures
found in the water seems out or all
proportion TO the usual order OF nature,
but this is perhaps because the minute
almost Invisible creatures Of which the
rivers and ponds are full and which are
the main food Of the smaller water car
nivora, live mainly on decaying yege-
table substance, which is practically
converted and condensed into micro
scopicaI animals before these become
In turn the food Of others.
1t Is as If all the trees and grass on
land were first eaten by locusts or
white ants and the locusts and white
ants were then eaten by semicarnivo-
rous COWS and sheep. which were In
turn eaten by true carnivora. The wa
Ter weeds, both when living and decay
ing. are eaten by the entomostraca, the
entomostraca are eaten by the larvae
of insects, the perfect insects are eaten
by the fish and the fish are eaten by
men, offers and birds.
Thus we eat the products Of the wa
Ter plants at four removes in a fish,
while we eat that of the grass or tur-
nlps only in the secondary fOrm-beef
or mutton.
