WHALES NEARLY EXTINCT.
Breed Slowly and Require 25 Years to
Attain Maturity.

Washington. July 9.-The speedy eX-
Greenland right whale has already
been practically If not totally exter-
minated. This has been due 10 the
tact that alone among the large
whales it's range is restricted t. the
Arctic ocean.
OF the rorauals the chief is the blue
whale, the bulkiest creature that has
ever existed on this globe. Until about
twenty years ago this animal was eX-
empt from human persecution on ac-
count of it's formidable strength. But
since the invention of the bomb har-
poon fred from a gun and exploding
in the beasts vitals, it has been hunt
ed as diligently as other whales, and
steam whalers with explosive Jrma
ment are likely To make short work of
the greatest known inhabitants Of the
globe.
In lell the total number of whales
killed in the world was reekoned at
22.5O0. Welding G20.000 barrels Of oil
valued at between $l3500 900 and Sl5
900, goo. This was double the catch OF
1910. and that for the current is ex-
pected To exceed IL by 10 or 10 per
cent. The chief field of whale killing
is now i'm the southern hemisphere,
where in 1914 800 OF the worlds to-
tai of 22. 500 were accounted for.
When 1t is considered that COWS ana
nursing mothers are included In this
wholesale slaughter, and that whales
breed very slowly. seldom bearing
more than one calf at birth. and re-
quiring twenty five to attain maturity.
IT is obvious that the whale population
of the ocean cannot long survive.
