CHEMICAL PREPARATION
European Scientist Makes Interesting
Experiments Which Produce
Larvae.

Paris, Sept. &c Remarkable eXper-
iments in the chemical development of
life have been recently effected by
Professor De Lage of the Sorbonne. In
his laboratory at Roscoff in Brittany
Professor De Lage placed the unfertil-
lied eggs of the sea urchin and the
starfish in sea water, adding a solution
of sugar and a few drops of ammonia
and tannin.
In about an hour segmentation
which is the first sign of life, began
and the eggs produced larvae. The
great majority of these larvae soon
died, but Professor De Lage by con.
slant and minute care. brought four OF
the sea urchins and two of the starfish
through the larvae stage. and they are
now healthy, growing specimens.

INSECTS GONE, BIRDS STARVE
Strange Condition to Be investigated
by Department of Agriculture.


by Department of Agriculture.
Farmers at Bellingham, Wash, are
being harassed by great fiocks of
crows which alight in fields of small
grain and corn and eat everything in
sight
The birds are devastating the fields
because a strange plague had swept
over the forests. destroying nearly ev-
cry species of insect, says q Belling-
ham special dispatch to the Cincinnati
Commercial Tribune. All birds are suf-
fering for want of food. Scientists I'm
the western part of the country are
much interested in what they say is a
migration of all insects.
The crows come from the woods in
flocks that number thousands and
alight in fields, where their cawing
and Gathering may be heard for miles.
The farmers have tried all methods to
get rid of the pest, but to no avail.
James Wilson, secretary of agricul-
turc, recently went through the Bel
bingham section of the state and was
told of the ravages of the crows. lie
sent an expert to investigate the sto
ries of the disappearance of insects
and the report has been confirmed. Dis
ease or a sudden migration is advanced
as a theory. Not an insect of any
| species can be found anywhere in the
big fir and cedar woods. The caterpil
lars and butterflies, usually so nurner
Gus at this season of the year, are no
where to be seen.
An Investigation will be made by the
department of agriculture.
