A peculiar industry Of the Island Of
Procida is the manufacture of fine silk
threads from the stomachs Of silk
worma. Ths worm, just before the
time Of its metaniorphosis, is cut open,
and the membrane of the stomach is
carefully removed and picked by d
secret process. Holding one end in
the teeth and drawing the otler with
the hands, the work people then work
the. tissue into threads Of considera-
BILE length. The threads are priced
for strength and He1ibility, and find d
market id Northern Italy at abotit S15
a pound. TREY are used for fishing
tackle, brushes, etc. Production is
expensive, as the worms must be taken
at the time of their greatest value for
silk. making, and the various opera
tions demand much labor by skilled
hands. ys Sgtj =. 5l.., {.
