By thoroughly of the thousands that will be on understanding the nature of the worms, and providing them witfj exhibition, Special Correspohdence to the Ilapablicj Salt Lake City, May IS, 1S97. . brh - proper food, the grades may be controlled by the producer. Yet it is as impracticable to attempt to produce only the best grade of silk as of any other agricultural product. Utah silk ha? i examined bv experts who attest to its excellence, and besides having gained a market in many manufactures in the United States, during the failure of silk worms i:i France, sometime ago both eggs and cocoons which were shipped fron Utah received avery high price. As the climate has much to do with quality and lustre of the silk we feel confident that in America, U tala will be the home of the silk worm, for our silk contains the same lustre, elasticity aad durability as any that can be produced in any country in the world; and with assistance held out by the act of the Legislator, e we feel that if the women of Utah will take hold of this industry, (which is so particularly adapted to women) and permanently establish it. it will give labor of a profitable nature to many people and be a great benefit to our State by bringing in a vast amount of money. The rasing of tho worms is a labor which is extremely interesting; while the reeling demands an acute and gentle touch found only in the hands of women. The weaving furnishes abroad field for artistic work in coloring and design, as well as light lab.);, and will bring to any industrious women a profitable remuneration. As there are thoueands of mulberry trees already growing, the climate is well adapted to tho silk worm; the country is free from disease which ia so fatal in damp climates, and with hundreds of women anxious to engage in. tho business, things look propitious tor the development of au industry which will be a aource of considerable wealth and revenue to the No. 51 L-ei- Is Still on at the EXCELSIOR.
