what and how to do in order to sue.
cessfully cultivate silk. This little
book costs 81, but several persons in
a neighborhood, moved to undertake
silk culture, can club together and
procure the book at very much re.
duced rates the eggs cost 81 a 1000,
SIS per ounce. Ordinary mulberry
cuttings Gt is the best way to propa-
gate from cuttings) cost $3.50 per
100.
Now for some figures concerning
the profit OF silk culture. Raw silk
commands from 81 to IS per pound,
according to quality; cocoons and
floss silk from 81 to $3.50 per pound.
Two hundred mulberry trees will
grow on two acres of land, which
would yield about 10000 pounds Of
leaves. About sixteen pounds of
leaves make a pound Of fresh CO.
coons, which would yield about
l,765 pounds of fresh cocoons. These
when stihed (drled) would weigh
about 5SS pounds and the dry Co
coons at So per pound would amount
TO $1,116. a tair estimate for eX-
pense would not exceed $160, leav-
ing a balance of $1,016, on two acres
OF land and in one months or six
weeks time. Where two crops are
raised in the summer, as may be
done, of course the profit is proper
tionally greater.
Another feature of the association
and very important one-is that
it will buy all the cocoons raised by
women, however small the quantity.
This the silk mills Will not do, but
the mills will take from the associa-
ton the raw silk if it can furnish it
to them in large quantities. OF
course large factories can only buy
at wholesale. The Association also
supplies silk worms at the proper
season, at 81 per 100. Perhaps
should say that this is purely phil
anthropic society, chief supported
by persons who are sufficiently inter-
ested in this subject to be willing to
put their hands IN their pockets and
draw out the necessary funds for its
support; especially to benefit their
countrywomen. If anybody who
reads this wishes to make a donation
to this worthy cause, or to solicit
more specific information than l have
given-and there is a great deal
more to be had-address the
Woman's Silk Culture Association,
1928 Chestnut street, Philadelphia.
Don't forget 10 enclose postage

desire.
That silk culture in this country
can at this time be made profitable
by country people, is, / think, un-
questioned by persons who know
anything about it. But, like all new
industries, it should be begun by the
uninitiated in a small wsy at first,
and gradually improved upon as one
obtains experience and success. l
have no doubt but that if a large
number OF the Rurdl readers express
a desire for more information in re-
gard to silk culture, with view to
undertaking il, that the editor OF this
journal, with his usual generosity,
will make room for it and give from
time to time hints and suggestions
that will prove helpful to the young
silk culturists. Perhaps ere long
there will be need OF a "silk culture
