The Oriental rug is no longer re-

Raise Many Kinds of Fish.
Now, for experimental purposes. the
experts in charge of this remarkable
marine laboratory have reared many
kinds of animals which have no market

them were starfishes. those notorious
destroyers of oyster beds. They were
raised in boxes floating between the
pontOOns Of the hOuseboat and living
food was supplied to them at first in
the shape of barnacles. Later on they
were provided with clans, oysters and
mussels. Being literally fed they grew
remarkably fast, and at the age of
four months were bigger than wild
specimens year old.

Plain, two-tone, or small pattern rugs
