appeared above the surface of the land it could
then be carefully irrigated and this done several
weeks earlier than with our ordinary sprouted
rice planting.
To practical planters there are doubtless
other ways of expediting the starting Of the rice
crop 50 as to avail of the rise in the river earlier
in the season and to have a completed stand OF
rice such as will shade the ground and keep
down the grasses even when the water supply
becomes deficient. The pumping Of the water
from the river on to the land becomes quite a
serious matter and it's expense will deter the
progress of the industry. We throw out these
few hints and would welcome into our columns
AL comments that our rice growers would like
to make concerning these phases Of the industry.
Our readers are familiar with the fact that
the great Schell Canal near Washington, La,
with its water lifting machinery has been
placed there in order to raise the water OF lrrl-
cation 20 or 80 feet high and thus to afford
water for the great plains Of St. Landry and
adjacent parishes, where with reasonably good
prices for rice that industry would be enormous
" developed. Where the land is all cultivated
in rice, or say the major part of it, we nave nc
doubt but that the elevating Of water on a large
scale can be done much more economically SO
far as human labor and fuel costs are concerned
than when it is done in the small way that is
now p~racticed generally by our rice planters.

Fish and Malaria.

WHEN we reflect on how wonderfully we
have progressed during the last three or tour
decades in the solution Of some very serious
problems, including malarial fever, we are LED
to wonder how our successors will look back
upon our present knowledge OF such matters,
whether with admiration OF surprise. A long
line Of large iron water pipe was laid through
Madison Avenue and one of the adjacent cross
streets in New York in 1873. Apparently CO.
incident Herewith there was an outbreak OF
fever, called malarial, along the line Of the ex-
cavations. The season was dry and hot and the
outbreak Of the fever was attributed to the ma
larial exhalation from the soil.
When DR.. Carpenter sacrificed his life in
Havana in solving the yellow fever problem
some ten or twelve years ago, we were taught
to believe that the stegomyia mosquito became
became the host of the yellow fever and the
anopheles mosquito Of malarial fever and such
is our belief now. The island Of Barbados has
been singularly free from yellow fever and, so
far as we know also from malarial fever. There
is a small fish there known locally as millions,
which we have thought was possibly corrup-
IlOll OIL LllG WOIU lIIIllilOWS, DUc thiO A"AAA1 i'AAoiA
still adheres. These very small fish consume
the mosquito larvae in any pools@of water in
Barbados and are presumed to have exempted
that island from the yellow fever.
Now, under our American domination in the
Philippines DR.. Alvin H. Seal has been request
ed to furnish those islands with a supply Of
mosquito fish, gambusia affinis, for distribution
in the Moro Province. DR.. Seal, who seems now
to be located there, has established breeding
stations in hopes to supply all parts of the island
with these fish. These mosquito fish appear to
be closely allied to the millions of Barbados and
are very small and propagate very rapidly and
can exist where there is little water and other
fish do not feed on it. TWAS first found by DR..
Seal in Louisiana, so we learn from the West
India Committees Circular, and the doctor is
convinced that the fact that the people can live
in the swalnpy regions of the South with little
malaria is due to the existence of this fish in
those parts. In 1889 he introduced these fish
into Honolulu, where they became a big factor
in the elimination of the mosquito. The utiliza-
ton Of this fish in this service, if we may so
term it, eliminates the necessity for using or
scattering petroleum in the marshes. In an ex-
pertinent conducted by DR.. Seal in Manila he
found that one little fish ate. between 600 and
700 mosquito larvae in one night.
