MARKETING FOR THE SEA COW.
It Is Necessary Now to Cut Through
Ice to Get at the Eel Grass.
Tho man who does the marketing
for the Aquarium's sea cow has had to
do some lively hustling this winter to
keep that big animal supplied with
food.
Tho sea cow Is eight foot long,
weighs 800 pounds, and has a nialthy
appetite. In the first eighteen weeks
after Us arrival hero from Florida, on
Sept. 3 Inst. It ate ninety bushels of
eel grass, six uushels of fennel-leafed
pond weed and two bushels of ulva,
or sen lettuce, making ninety-eight
bushels of aquatic plants in all in
eighteen weeks, or an nverage of
about five and one half bushels a
week, which Is about its present rate
of consumption.
The eel grass and other things for
the sea cow'h table are gathered in
Oravesend Hay or the waters there
with connected. Daymen say that the
present has been the hardest w'nter
hereabouts on the water In twenty-live
years. On many days It has been nec
essary to cut through tho Ice to get

Hut such Is tho met. The exhibit pal
aces of the I-ouislana Purchase Ex
position average much larger than
those ol Chicago and aro greater In
number. About 130 acres of lloor
space are provided In tho various pal
aces of tho present World's Fair and
more Hum twpnty buildings will bo
used for exhibit purposos. The larg
est of those Is the Palace of Agricul
ture, which covers twenty acres. The
net In sire Is the Palace of Transpor
tation, covering fifteen ncres hud con
taining four miles of railway tracks
for the oNhlblt of locomotives and
ears. At tho Chicago ISxj'osltlon
thoro wore practically no outdoor ex
hibits. At this World's Fair about 100
ncros are given up to outdoor displays,
supplementing In a most pleasing
manner tho hundreds of thousands of
Indoor exhibits. At the Chicago Ex
position ono building was used for
no loss than three important depart
ments. At the World's Fair in St.
l.ouls four buildings, covering forty
fix e acres, are given up to the same
four departments.
Tho total cost of tho World's Fair
Is estimated at from forty to fifty
million dollars, exclusive of the value
of tho exhibits. Tho Palace of Ma
chinery alouo will contain exhibits to
the value of eight million dollars.

of most rapid Increase In height from
12 to 14 years tho growth of the

of tho body, but at 17 to 19 It grows
one-thirtieth as rast, and at 20 reaches
onesoventh of the body growth.
