Silk Production
In PHILIPPINES

Manila, p. l., Nov 3.-The produce
ton Of silk in the Philippine Islands
for export is likely to be revived in
the near future after being aban-
doned for about seventy years, in
the opinion of DR.. Charles S. Banks,
former entomologist in the bureau Of
science in Manila, who has returned
from Nueva Apolonia, province Of
Oriental Negroes, where he super
vised the planting of a large tract in
mulberry trees and where, he Says,
superior grade Of silk is being pro-
duced on a small scale.
AT Nueva Apolonia, conditions are
In every way suited to the industry"
said DR.. Banks. 1.-THE climate is
cool because Of the altitude, 1900 feet
above sea level, and the silk worms
produce eight generations a year.
They are free from all disease and
grow to an unusual size.
"The chief handicap under which
the silk industry has labored in the
past in the Philippines, has been the
lack Of initiative in the planting Of
mulberry trees In sufficient quantity
to enable the raising Of silk worms
in commercial quantities. At Nueva
Apolonia, we have some forty acres
OF mulberry trees and are producing
silk that IL superior to the grades
that for many years have been i'm
ported from China and sold at
high price. Mechanical reeling will
be installed at the plantation and
thousands Of mulberry trees are to
be planted every month"
Nearly $50 years ago silk worm
culture was taken up in the Philip
pines and the silk industry grew to
considerable proportions until about
seventy years ago when it was virtu-
ally abandoned because Of lack of
laborers, according to some author
tiles.

ward Cedar lake. Should the slide
continue it will mean the loss of all

1t has been found that the clay
formation upon which the founda-
tons are erected lies in a slanting
rock strata of extreme smoothness.
There is really nothing but the weight
of the clay subsoil to keep it ball

The winters deep frost and a sup
