Silk Culture in the South

We import yearly $37 900, 900 worth
Of raw silk which might be produced in
the South. where the climate and condi-
tions favor the growth OF the silk worm
and its food. Iu his journal, silk, pub
lished at Tallulah Falls, Ga, Mr.. l. Il.
Magid, having had experience in the cul-
ture of silk in the South, ailirms that
"the farmers, by entering silk culture,
can make in eight weeks time more than
the same family could make in wh' l.
wear by raising crop Olcotton; but, bear
in mind. they can still make the cotton,
and add silk to it. One crop does not in
terfere with the other. There is no con-
aict between them. A few mulberry trees
growing along the fences, in odd nooks
about the farm, along the roadside, will
provide the needed proyender for the silk
worms. And no great outlay is neces-
sary for plant or stock. Ii is business
in which the poor farmer as well Gs the
well-to-do can engage 1t can be made
a side issue, t. be attended 10 principally
or wholly by the women and younger
members Of the farm household, no heavy
manual labor being involved" The first
settlers in Georgia, ne shows, went sue
ceslully into silk culture but "the unset
tied condition OF the colony, the Revolu
tionary War, the invention OF the cottOr
gin, the development OF great plantations
etc, initiated against the silk business
Cotton eventually became king, and sill
culture was abandoned; not, however
because OF any physical drawback to il
success. ."-Baltimore Sun.
