The silk growing industry in the United
States, which has kept up Pickering ex.
istence for very long period, is again
trying to get up revival of energy.
What is claimed to be the first silk rearing
exhibition ever held in this country. Is
now open in New York, and will remain
so through hesummer, under the auspices
of the North American silk exchange.
The exhibits show the original silk makers
in all stages Of their existence, from the
egg to the cocoon. The feeding worms
are at work upon mulberry trees and the
Usage orange, and there is large and fine
show of cocoons. There are exhibits from
twelve states, and more are arriving. The
manager stated, in his opening remarks.
that the exhibition was intended to prove
that the United States can raise as good silk
as any country in the world. This has
been demonstrated, but 1t has also proved
true that we have not yet learned how to
make either an industrial or an economical
success of 1t for any length of time. Presi.
dent Smith of the silk exchange said that
the country is now entering spon another
and more hopeful experiment-tbat last
year there were $4,000 persons engaged in
silk culture in the United States. while
next year there would be $4,000. He pre-.
dicted that ultimately the S35 900, 900 now
annually sent abroad to buy raw silk to
supply the 1926 American silk mills would
be kept at home to support new and
most attractive industry, especially suited
to women.
