was Groundhog Day. To old-

half over. If the groundhog,
awakening from his winter

his hole and saw his shadow,
he returned for six more weeks..
In this area he certainly didn't
see his shadow on Friday. , He

Silk production in Japan is
closely. tied
James H'. Carrie mentioned
Japan's silk industry in his let..
ter last week but a later'lette.
went into more detail on his
visit to the hatchery centre. ,
The raising of silkworm eoeoens
and silk spi . ning is called seri.
culture. The following is ilei.
account on the silk industry;
The production of silk is -
closely tied up with ~agriculture
as silkworm raising is a tna$or
part time occupation. Each
family is, allowed only 2 to ?
acres of land. In the first qua.
ter of the century Japan produo-
ed 48,719 tons of a total'of 65-
504 tons. Then silk was Japan's
most valuable export. World;
War I1 killed the silk trade as'
most of the land was converted
to producing food. Now they a.
are strenuously trying to re-est-
ablish silk export trade.
Formerly sericulture was
limited to° springtime but nowt
by the invention of artificial
hatching they have extended
the period through to autumn:.
The eggs are in two categories,
hibernatedd non -over -wilt
tering eggs. All es are stored
in dry air under 5-0°F. The hi-
bernated type are hatched in
humidity of 80° and tempera-.
ture 71 to 77°F. The hatching
of non -over -wintering eggs is''
promoted chemically by im-
mersion in hydrochloric acid
solution for several minutes.
