Fostering the Silk Industry Aims for American Production
Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt leads a push to build a thriving American silk industry. She promotes silk worm culture by farmers' wives and daughters, supported by the Department of Agriculture and Secretary Wilson. The project envisions cocoons as a valuable farm product, with six weeks of care per generation and yields of cocoons weighing about eighty pounds per ounce of eggs. Early successes include a sixteen year old Albany girl’s cocoons praised by Wilson. Currently, major silk production centers are California, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, and Texas, but many states could adopt the practice.
