'--. i "The expense of the building up of the sea resources is almost nil when compared to the irrigation and commercial fertilizer ' neces sary to make land productive," continued the speaker. There are 40 different species of mammals in the Pacific Ocean, said .Ir, Evermann. s These form one of the most Important natur al resources. OM the different varieties, the Northern sea otter Is the most valuable fur bearing animal in the world. v A two reel motion picture illu stratlng the habits of, the seals was shown during I the evening.
