NATURE IN THE OCEAN.
Creatures Devouring Each other to

Creatures DevOuring Each other to
Prevent Overproduction.
1t Is estimated that the cyclops will
beget 442,000 young In the course Of
the year, and IL these were all permit
ted to mature and reproduce them
selves the seas would in a short time
be a simple mass of living organisms.
But the cetochilus, or "whale food"
constitutes almost the exclusive food
of the vast shoals of herrings and the
sea living salmon and salmon trout.
Their existence is one Of the greatest
economic triumphs of nature, for these
minute creatures scour the sea of Its
refuse and keep 1t sweet, while they
form the food Of fishes, which In turn
furnish wholesome food for millions of
human beings.
Feeding on dead vegetable and ami
NAL matter, these entomostraca are
converted into the food fishes of the
world by one remove, being first assim-
Hated by the herrings, then absorbed
by the funny, cod, mackerel and other
fishes which follow herring shoals and
prey upon the latter. They mainly
swim on the surface Of the water, and
1t Is the search of them in this position
which brings the shoals of herrings to
the surface. Their countless numbers
are also augmented by the microscopic
larvae of fixed shells, such as the bar
nacle, which begins life in this form
first as a one eyed swimming crusta-
cean, then growing pair of eyes and
finally affixlng Itself.
In rivers these larvae are the sole
food Of all young fish and often also of
older fish In early spring the crea-
lures In every stage-eggs, larvae and

traca-swarm in the water, on the mud
and on the water plants, and were it
not for natures provision for keeping
them In check so rapid would be their
rate of multiplication that the whole
character of the water would speedily
be entirely changed.

Notice to Owners of Dogs.
COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA.
STATE LIVE SToCK SANITARY
BOARD.

Regulation relating to dogs in Sykesvlle
and vicinity and from west end Sykesvlle
along the public road through Winslow and
Hende son townships to the County line, also
Brockwayville Borough and Snyder township
West of Brockwayville Borough in Jefferson
County, Pa.
The attention of all owners of do:s in the
above described district is called to the fol-
lowing order of quarantine of dogs adopted
by the State Live stock Sanitary Board,
April 2S, 1905 Dog owners are warned that
disregard OF this notice may lead to the de-
struction OF their dogs and that they thca.-
selves may be proceeded against legally.

Harrisburg, Pa, April 2s, 1906
lWHEREAs There is reas1 IN to believe that
the disease known AS rabies or hydrophobia
exists in Sykesville and vicinity and from
west end Sykesville along the public road
through Winslow and Henderson township to
the County line also the borough of Brock
wayvilleand Snyder township West of Brock
wayvilIe borough in jefferson County, Pa,
and the nature of this disease is such that for
the present all dogs, within certain limits,
must be suspected OF being capable of spread
ing it.
the State Live Stock Sanitary Board under
the provisions of the Act of March 9th, 1903
that all dogs in the above descrihed district
are hereby declared to be in state of
quarantine, ana must be strictly confined or
firmly secured on he premises Of ihei own
ers, and moi allowed 10 run nj large, or enter
muzz'"d with y we'll fitting n.uzzle that viii
eiiectuaIy prevent biting
This quarantine shall remain in force for
50 days from the date hereof or until removed
by the State Live Stock Sanitary Board
Attention is called TO the following Sections
of the above mentioned Act
Section 3. Should dogs be permitted to run
at large, or to escape from restraint or con-
finement, or to go without muzzle, in viola
tion of the quarantine, or regulation, or order
established by the State Live Stock Sanitary
Board to restrict the spread Of rabies or hy-
drophobia, as provided by this act, such dogs
may be secured and confined or they may be
shot or otherwise destroyed, and the owner or
owners thereof shall have no claim against
the person so doing.
Section 4 Any person violating the pro-
visions of this act or of a quarantine, or of. a
regulation or order to restrain, confine or
muzzle dogs, duly established by the State
Live Stock Sanitary Board for the purpose of
restricting the spread of rabies or hydro
phobia, in the manner provided in the other

a mlsdemeanor and upon conviction shall
forfeit and pay fine of not less than ten
dollars nor more than one hundred dollars,
at the discretion of the court.

AIR IN HIGH ATTITUDES.
The Same Ms In other Places, hut II
Contains No Microbes.

contains NO MlcrODes
1t is an error to think that the chem
ical composition of the air differs es-
Sentially wherever the sample may be
taken. The relation of oxygen to nitro
gen and other constituents Is the same
whether 1t is on the heights of the Alps
or Mt the surface of the sea. The ia
vorable effects, therefore. of n change
of air are not to be explained by any
difference in the proportions of its
gaseous constituents. The important
difference is the bacterioogical one.
The air of high attitudes contains no
microbes and is, in fact, sterile, while
near the ground and some hundred
feet about it microbes are abundant.
In the air Of towns and crowded places
not only does the microbe impurity in
crease, but other impurities. such as
the products of combustion of coal, ac-
c"uc also.
Several investigators have found
traces of hydrogen and certain hydro
carbons in the Gir. especially in pine,
oak and birch forests. 1t is to these
bodies, doubtless consisting of traces
of essential oils, that the curative eff
fects Of certain health resorts are trac-
cd. Thus the locality of fir forest is
said TO give relief in diseases of the
respiratory tracts. But these traces Of
essential oils and aromatic proiluct
must be counted, strictly speaking, as
Impurities, since they are apparently
not necessary constituents Of the air.
Recent analysis has shown that these
bodies tend TO disappear In the air as
= higher altitude is reached until they
disappear altogether. 1t would seem,
therefore, that microbes, hydrocarbons
"Hd entities other than oxygen and
2,."ogen, and perhaps also argon, are
c:.'v incidental TO the ncighborhood of
human industry. animal life and damp
vcg2tation.- Chicago Chronicle.

THAT NEW STEAM ROLLER.

1t is claimed by some that we are op-
posed to the purchase of new steam
roller for use in the street department
of the city. This is a mistake. The
Astorian is in favor of any and every
thing that will contribute to the perma-
nence and maintenance Of the dirt
streets Of the city. But there are other
elements of the affair upon which we
hut echo the sentiment of a large per-
.entage of our readers; and notable
mong these is the manner of making
such purchases. We would have the
Committee on streets proceed in regu-
lar way to secure so costly an adjunct
10 the city's enginery and know what
t is doing before entering into con-
tract for the buy. They should have
written guaranty from the seller that
the machine will traverse, and do the
work expected Of Il upon the heaviest
grades Of the city, and they can get this
If they go after it. To buy an expensive
machine of this sort in a haphazard
fashion is raw waste of money, and
Astoria is too near the margin of her
public Indebtedness to throw any money
around loose Most of the work cut
out for roller is upon the steep hill
sides and whatsoever is bought in this
line must measure up to the absolute re-
quirements of this situation. That the
old horse-roller is horse and man killer
has been known here for long while,
and it is far too light to thoroughly key
the crushed rock that simply must be
keyed if it is to do the service expected
of it.

poRrLAND's DISCOVERY.

Portland has just awakened TO the
fact that she has been shamefully cheat
ed by the street railway combine; that
she has been gulled to the last dollars
worth Of franchise property she pos.
sessed; and that she is, practically, with.
out recourse except upon the plea Of
eminent domain for the recovery OF the
avaged rights she gave 50 willingly to
the adroit thieves.
Well, 1t was getting around TO
Portland, anyway: every other city on
the coast has had an experience of the
sort with corporate vultures and now
the Oregon metropolis can put up her
fight. We hope for the city's sake, she
viii put up clean. hard winning
scrap; that she will be so successful,
that every other outraged community in
the land win have winning predicate to
operate upon when they shall be called
upon to fight the like, But, in the light
of past experience, the country over,
we are compelled to nurse a reasonable
doubt of that success.
