"iVio; PREFACE. pN presenting this pamphlet to the American public I am )impellecl by a desire to direct popular attention to the ad- visability of fostering a richly remunerative industry, as yet only in its infancy in this country, one which is as easy as it is pro- fitable, and also to point out how a product hitherto almost valueless, through lack of utilization, may readily be made a source of revenue. The degree of a country's productiveness is the measure of its prosperity: What better illustration of this axiom could be desired than that afforded by France in her truly wonderful recuperation from the disastrous effects of the Franco-Prussian war and the promptitude with which she met and paid off the enormous war debt imposed upon her by that unhappy conflict? The secret of her success lay in the fact that the French are pre-eminently a nation of industrious producers, among whom flourish industries that give employment even to the classes least likely to be productive, the young, the very old, and the physically afflicted. Among such industries none are more prominent than that of -ilk culture and none are more peculiarly adapted to supplying an easy and very profitable occupation to such individuals as have been suggested. It demands but an exceedingly small investment of capital and requires only a little intelligent care to ensure its success. Certainly no reason exists why it should not be made as prominent a factor in the prosperity of the American people as it has been in that of the French. In developing it we neces warily create a new value for an article which we possess in ^reat abundance — but which has hitherto been almost worthless through the absence of any demand for it — the leaf of the ■"kite mulberry tree, which is the product before alluded to. Thus, both directly and indirectly the popularization of silk l ^ ulture in this country will be of great valne to us pecuniarily. '.And it will be so morally as well. It offers an employment peculiarly attractive to the young and by the intelligent direc- tion of parents ma}*, while affording an amusement, easily be made an important element in the training of the youth of both sexes to habits of careful forethought and industry. Thanks to the practical experience and able co-operation of Mr. and Mrs. Gigrich, of Amityville, L. I., I am enabled to give at this time, tangible form and practical illustration to what has long been with me a cherished project, viz, the encourage- ment of silk culture in the United States, and, in the following few pages, I believe that I have condensed and made perfectly clear to every comprehension all that is essential for anybody to know in order to essay this charming and profitable indus- try. The United States of North America are as perfectly adapted to silk culture as any country on the globe, commer- cial conditions for assuring profit from it are now more favor- able than they have ever before been and it is to be earnestly hoped that it will receive the early and earnest attention which it so richly merits.

SILK CULTURE. fHE prime essential of silk culture is the provision of proper food-plants for the nourishment of the silk-worm. That which experience has demonstrated as the most suitable is the white mulberry (Morus alba) leaf. It has been claimed by eminent entomologists that the leaf of the Osage orange {Mae- lura aurantiaca) is equally well adapted to the nutrition of the worm, but the weight of practical experience is in favor of the white mulberiy, and since that tree is already abundant throug- out the country there does not really seem to be any conspicu- ously good reason for seeking or adopting substitutes for it. The white mulberry is easily propagated by cutting, grows readily from the seed and is a hardy tree A good supply of its leaves having been provided for, the silk culturist may deem himself ready to commence operations in rearing worms. Silk culture may properly be divided into and considered separately under three distinct heads : 1. Procuring and caring for the eggs or "seed" as they are technically known. * 2. Hatching and caring for the worms 3. Getting the silk spun by the worms in the form of cocoons. Care should be taken to procure healthy and properly im- pregnated eggs, from, if x^ossible, the so called "hardy" species of silk worm moths. If yellow in color they are not good. They should be gray, slate, lilac, violet or dark-green, those hues be- longing to different varieties, the distinctions between which it is not worth while to enter upon here. The eggs f i om the Pyranees, in the south of France are deemed best, as least af- fected by climate and productive of worms that afford fine cocoons of the valuable straw colored silk which is held in such high esteem by manufacturers. In the opinion of Mr. ( Jigrich, Technical Superintendent of the silk-rearing exhibition now open in the New York Turn Halle — and of other practical silk culturists, the Japanese eggs are however deemed peculiarly well adapted to growth in the climate of the United States. Certainly, exceptionally good results have beeu attained with them. In this present exhibition Mr. Gigrich has publicly grown worms from Japanese eggs, obtained the moths from the cocoons made by those worms, procured eggs from those moths and out of those eggs has hatched other worms which have made handsome cocoons, a remarkably rapid course of re-production. The preferred French eggs are of the race known as "annuals," that is, they re-produce but once a year, in the spring-time, but the Japanese varieties re-produde twice or thrice per annum, and a race of silk- worm moths is said to exist in India which gives eight generations in a sinyle year. It may be remarked how- ever, in this concection, that those varieties which re-produce most frequently do not furnish the best quality of silk or make the best cocoons and are not the hardiest. Until it is desired that the eggs shall be hatched — which must, of course, not be before the mulberry leaves have put forth to supply the worms with food — they should be kept in a cool, dry . place, where the temperature never rises above 40 fr Fahrenheit, and great care must be exercised to keep them out of reach of rats and mice which are very fond of them. Under no circumstances must the sun's rays be permitted to fall upon them Eggs should be secured in the fall, and as much as possible remain over winter where they are going to be hatched. When the time comes for hatching, place the eggs on large sheets of white paper in a room, the temperature of which is. uniformly maintained at 75° or 80° Fahrenheit. This room should be furnished with a table, of length proportioned to the number of worms to be raised upon it. A strip of wood one inch high should extend around the table, and other strips of equal height should be laid across it, so as to divide its surface into square compartments, in which the worms may be kept separ- ate according to their progressive stages of development. No green or resinous wood should be used where the worms can come in col: tact with it, and no iron or paint Everything must, 10 be scrupulously clean, as dirt almost invariably causes disease and death among the worms. "When the eggs have been three or four days in this warm room, the floor should be sprinkled with water, from time to time, in order to preserve a humid atmosphere, which will keep the shells soft and make it easier for the worms to nourish themselves About the fifth or sixth day, the little worms begin to make their appearance. When they do so, a net or sheet of perforated paper must be laid over them, with some finely shredded tender young leaves of the white mulberry upon it and they will very quickly mount from the hatching tray to begin nibbling at their food. It will be well, as far as possible, to keep the worms of exact- ly the same age, as a matter of convenience in caring for them. Mosquito netting will do for the first net to put over them, but gradually nets of larger meshes, or sheets of perforated pa- per with wider apertures will have to be provided, as they grow very rapidly. Each time that they are fed the fresh leaves should be laid upon netting or perforated paper trays over them, as in the rirst instance and when they climb up to the new supply the lower tray, w 7 ith its dry leaves, excretory matter and any weak and worthless w r orms that have not strength enough to crawl up, should be removed and cleansed. The silk worm in no stage of his existence is anything of a rover. Even when he gets wings, they are of no use to him. Give him his food while he is a worm and his mate when he is a moth and he will go upon no expeditions of idle curiosity. As they grow they should be advanced to other compartments of the table, always keeping apart those of each days hatching . Any eggs left unhatched four days after the first of the worms from that lot of eggs have appeared, should be thrown away, as. even if ultimately hatched they would only produce weak, sickly and worthless worms. When the worms are a week old whole leaves may be given to them. Opinions differ as to the feeding of the worms. >Somp think that thev should be given fresh leaves four times a 11 day, regularly; others that they require but three meals. The hours at which they display most voracity are early in the morning and late in the evening, but it is well to give them leaves also during the day as their abundant nutrition is es- sential to their doing best the work that is expected of them. They should never be given any leaves that are wet with dew or rain. The three great requisites of the silk-worms existence are absolute cleanliness, abundant fresh food and pure air at an equable temperature. All sudden changes or extremes of temperature must be studiously avoided, the uniform condition of about 75° or 80° being maintained as nearly as possible. The silk-worm goes through four periodes of mol tings, shed- ding a skin in each and growing steadily larger and lighter in color until he is fin ally, of a creamy white or cloudy amber tint. The first molt takes place five or six days after hatching. For ten or twelve hours, while he is going through the process, he re- frains from eating and remains motionless, with the front por- tion of his body raised as high as possible, supporting himself on the "prolegs" under the rear segments of his body. When he has thrown off his old skin he goes to work eating with a rapacity that seems spurred by a desire to make up for lost time. Each of the succeeding molts he goes through in the same way and they are five or six days apart. The whole age of the worm is but thirty to thirty -five days. After the last molt the worms eat ravenously for eight days, or perhaps nine, then lose appetite and with more energy than they have displayed at any previous time in their existence be- gin prospecting about for a place in which to spin their cocoons. Some of them prefer to begin spinning themselves in at an an- gle of the compartment in which they may chance to be, but generally they prowl about in a restless, uneasy way until they have found a place to form their cocoons among the branches of some brush or boughs which must be placed conveniently for them to climb upon. No branches should be used for this pur pose that have any odors and they should not be over two feet high. 12 Having selected a place for its work each worm surrounds itself with a cloud of flossy Bilk, and then In the centre of that concealment performs its mysterious toil of enveloping itself in Its cocoon Care must be taken, if two or fchree of them begin spinning close together to prevent their joining their cocoons and making ;t tangled mai formed mass of them which would be almost worthless, since they could not be unwound by the feeler Each completed cocoon should be about the size, shape ■•tnd color of a very large peanut. The silk of which they are composed is not laid On evenly around and around them, but is piii on irregularly, often in loops and swirls, but the surface is smooth and the cocoon, if good is hard Each <• i coon if made by a healthful and well natured worm should yield from sis fco eight hundred yards of the exceeding- ly delicate filamenl or thread of which it is made up. On the ninth day afterthe worm begins spinning its cocoon It changes from the chrysalis to the moth, If then it is desired fco save the cocoon entire for reeling purposes, it will be ncces sary, on the eighth day to kill the 1 chrysalis. This may be dom either by si am or dry hoi air at a temperature ot 200 degrees which must not be exceeded else the silk may suffer injury In that hot air, a humming noise is heard to proceed from th« cocoons for about twenty minutes and when it ceases all life i killed After that process the cocoons must be kept in a warn' dry airy place and frequently stirred and turned over for sev era! days, until their contents are thoroughly dried. In tha J condition they may be kept an indefinite length of time, unti] if is desired lo send them to market, but care must be exercised ! to keep them from rats, mice, aids and certain sorts of beetles, . which will gnaw them open to get at their contents if the op- portunity is offered. Mr. Gigrich, of Amityville, L. I„ and Mr. Hermann Rooke, of No. 66 East Fourth si reel, N. Y , have invented an appa- ratus which is justly cl limed fco he superior to any ever belon offered lo the public for the killing of the chrysalis without thei possibility of injury to the silk and such an apparatus is need-J ed by everj sihVculturisi in this country since the facilities for selling the fresh cocoons to great filatures such as exist inj 13 j France are as yet unknown here, and the cocoons must be dried for shipment to a distant market. The appliance is simple and not expensive. In this brief sketch all the processes of silk culture, from the primary care of the eggs to the final preparation of the cocoons for market, have been clearly stated in their natural and pro- per order, but it has not been deemed necessary, or indeed ad- [ visable, to lumber ur; the instruction with amass of theoretical , rules and scientific knowledge, such as is generally heaped up- on and piled around this very simple subject in. more preten- tious works. All that has been told is practical and accurate ;and more, so far as it goes, is needed by nobody. But many things remain yet to be considered and it is a not unimp rtant branch of the subject. HATCHING THE EGGS. fl While it is true that silk-worm eggs, of almost any variety may be bought whenever required, the true silk-culturist should render himself independent of that source of supply by produc- ing for himself the "seed" that he requires. To do this requires some farther special instruction. As has already been stated, on the ninth day of its retreat in the cocoon, the chrysalis devel- ppes into the imago or adult moth, Then it discharges a Jwecretion which dissolves the hard gummy lining of the cocoon fund moistens the silk at the head end of the cocoon so that its delicate filaments may be push' d aside and broken sufficiently for the moth to emerge r lhis escape is effected, on the eleventh or twelfth day after the' worm has commenced to spin. The moths are of both sexes, in about equal numbers, and the difference between them is very clearly apparent. The females are very corpulent, being full of eggs, and are very loth to move at all, while the males are comparatively slender in form, have broader antennae and are much more lively, constantly fluttering their useless white wings in a cheery but ineffective way, and even exerting themselves sufficiently to walk very short distances occasiona ly. 14 Foi two hoars after they have emerged from the cocoons, the sexes must be kept separate by confinement in paper boxes. After that time they must be paired and each pair put in a separate small box, or closed compartment of a great box, hav- ing apertures for ventilation. Th<-y can be handled by their wings, but all handling should be exceedingly gentle and if possible should be avoided. The pairs must be left alone in the dark for six hours. Then take them out and seperate, or ''uncouple)" them, handling the female very delicately. As for the male, he may be thrown away. His work is done and his mission in life ended. In a few hours he will die. The female must be placed upon a sheet of paper or a clean white linen cloth, where she will at once commence laying her eggs and will keep at it until she has deposited three or four hundred at about equal distances apart on the surface upon which she is placed. If it is desired to have the eggs loose, she had better be laid upon a piece of line woolen stuff, since they will not be stuck to that surface so firmly as they would be up- on linen or paper. The eggs will be about the size of turnip seed, nearly round, slightly flattened and of a yellow color when first deposited, a hue which they will retain if not impregnated and consequently worthless. "When the female is done laying her eggs she too dies. The manner of caring for the eggs until hatching time has already been stated and may be condensedly recapit- ulated as having four requirements, viz: Strict seclusion from the sunlight; a temperature never higher than 40° Fah- renheit; dry air and. protection from rats and mice. It is a good plan to hang them up in a bag. THE COCOONS. In sorting and preparing cocoons for the market care must be exercised in picking out and putting by themselves the soft ones and in throwing away the black spotted ones, their dis- coloration showing that the chrysalis has died inside. If al- lowed to remain with the others, the foul matter from the do- composition in them would spoil the good cocoons. Another thing to bear in mind when gathering and sorting the co- 15 coons is to ]aj aside the largest and hardest ones to breed moths from for next year's supply of eggs. To get an oun.ee of eggs — about 40,000— it wilt be necessary to lay aside for breeding about 100 to 110 moths of each sex. A good way for keeping them in good form for developement of the moth "is to attach them by a little paste to a piece of card, board. In most of the silk raising countries of Europe the silk-eul- turist makes no effort to reel himself the product of his worms,, but simply sells the cocoons to a filature — as the large estab- lishmeiits for reeling and preparing the raw silk are denom- inated. This is merely a matter of convenience, as those ex- tensive manufactories have much more perfect appliances and a better system for the utilization of labor than the individual would be likely to possess. Even the killing of the chrysalis is performed at the filatures, where the cocoons are bought fresh. Here, in the United States, as already suggested, it wiD be necessary for the silk-culturist to kill the chrysalis and dry them himself before his cocoons will be marketable. In France, where all connected with silk-culture and manufacture has been brought to the highest perfection, silk is reeled by steam machin- ery, but in Japan and China this work is done by hand. And, indeed, very good raw silk can, by skill and care be produced with the aid of a hand-reel. It is not however necessasy for the American silk-culturist to reel his own silk. New York now affords a good market for cocoons, since there are at pre- sent several houses engaged in the business of buying them for exportation to France. All information can be obtained from H. Kocke, 60 and 68 East Fourth street, New York.' The hand silk-reel is not an expensive piece of machinery and ladies maj in some instances prefer to employ it. For their information it may be said in brief that the reel itself is geared by multiplying cog-wheels so as to have a very rapid revolving motion, that it must also have a lateral motion so that the thread shall not lie straight upon each other as they are reeled on, that in its front are two or more small glass "eyes" or "ringlets" through which the filaments pass, and these filaments — four or rive in number, according to the thickness of raw thread desir- 16 €< J — are drawn together from the cocoons floating in a basin or pot, of copper or tin, containing water almost boiling and kept hot by means of a small flame under it. The filaments are picked up from the hot water by the small twigs of little birch brooms and have on them enough glutinous matter to stick them firmly together in one thread. Yery great care must be exercised to keep the thread even, replacing each fila- ment as it breaks or gives out. For any further information or orders for the "American Silk Kaiser" please address H. Rocke, 66 and 68 East Fourth street, New York, or A. Giegrich, Amity ville, L I., dealers in silk worm eggs, mulberry trees, thermometers, and all other articles necessary for silk culture. GENERAL RULES Which should he home in mind hy the silk-culturist o 1. Buy only sound eggs. 2. The *ggs must be kept in a cool place, never higher in temperature than 40° Fahrenheit. 3. The eggs must never be exposed to the sun. 4. Mulberry leaves, of the species Morus Japonica or Morus alba, (the so-called white mulberry) should be given as food, but never in a wet condition. 5. Abundance of food should be given to the worms early in the morning and late in the evening, especially to those of most advanced ages. 6. Give finely shreddtd. tender leaves to the young worms until they are one week old. 7. Keep together, as much as possible, the worms of the same age. 8. If two or more worms spin their cocoons together, separate them carefully. 9 Cleanliness, pure air and an even temperature of 70° to 80° Fahrenheit are absolutely essential. 10. Keep in reserve at least one day's food as a provision against possible storms which would wet the irees and render the leaves unfit for feeding temporarily and only give the leaves at the temperature of the room in which tbe worms are kept. 11. The frays or tables upon which the worms are kept, must be made of dry wood, odorless and free from resin and must, have no exposed metallic surfaces, even so small as nail-heads, as contact with metal chills and may kill the worms. Use no paint where the worms can come in con- tact with it. 12. On the eighth day after commencing fo spin, tbe chrysalis in tbe cocoons intended for the market must be killed by exposure for 20 to 25 minutes in steam or hot air at a temperature of 200° Fahrenheit 13. T > those who have seen our exhibition the above rules are all that is required. gtur roeifere ^usRunfi foinic fiir km ,Jlttimk(uii|d)ctt Seitiett ^iidjter' iDcnbc man fid) an $. ffioifc, 6G Hub 68 £>§ 4tc ©trajk, 5ttelu*g)ort, ober *. ©forty, SlittpiOc, 8. 3 V §anb(er in unb aflc anbevcn Slrttfct tocldje $ur Seiben^u^t uotfjtg ftttb.
