s1LKwoRMs IN IOWA.
The Experiments Of an Italian ut DEE
MOines Have Proved Success-
full So Far.

Mark Chiesa, an italian, is success
fully raising silkworms at Des Moines,
Ia. The eggs were brought from Italy
by relative. Two years ago he made
the experiment first, but the person
who brought the eggs carried them in
his pocket and they Matched on ship
board, so the worms had to be thrown
into the sea. This time the person to
whom the eggs were intrusted suspend
ed them on a string so that they got
cool air on the ocean and on the railway
trains. Arriving here, they were put
into cold storage until the mulberry
leaves were ready for them. Then,
upon being put into a warm room, they
Matched in one day.
OF the supposed 5000 eggs from ten
silk moths about 1000 Matched, which
result, Mr.. Chiesa says, is better than
the average in Italy. The greatest diff
Guilty has been to find mulberry leaves
for the worms. They eat about three
wagonloads day, and never stop eat
ing for minute, but eat all the time,
day and night. The worms, in devour-
ing the mulberry leaves, make noise
like rain on the roof. By lively hunting
the food for the worms has been pro-
vided, and they are well developed and
healthy, about three inches long, and
are just beginning to weave their CO.
coons. There seems to be no reason
why the industry should not succeed
here. Mr.. Chiesa has brought wom-
an from Italy who has had 80 years ex-
perience with silk worms, and she says
they are doing as well as any she ever
| saw.
The experiment is the first that is
known to have been made in the west,
and is certainly the first that has been
successful. 1t has attracted as much
attention as circus in this city, and the
number of visitors is very large. The
owner is a good-natured man and he
| cheerfully and proudly shows the in
dustrious 1000 to all who care to see
| them.
If they turn out as well as they
promise to, Mr.. Chiesa will buy large
farm near this city, plant it to mulber-
ry trees and go into the business of rails
ing silkworms and producing silk on a
| large scale. From the experience he
has had in America and Italy, where his
father is silk producer, he sees no rea-
son why the industry should not be e1S
| tirely successful in Iowa.-N. Y. Sun.
