To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But we do not begrudge it this capacious appetite when we remember what it portends — the storing up of the energy- and material necessarj- for the wonderful work of silk production. In fact, the more food we can encourage the little cr ature to crowd into itK alimentary canal during its brief lifetime, the greater may we expect the yield of silk. As I have already pointed out, the food suppl3' must be secured in anticipation of the hatchings. The natural forxl of the silk- worm is the mulberry... leaf. There are man vvarietiesof mulberry trees, but the best for the purpose is the White Mulberry which is to be found in many parts of the United States. However, mul- "berry leaf is not absolutely necessary for the nourishment of the silkworm, for I have raised them on lettuce leaf, which thej- will eat with relish, when, for some reason or other mulberrv leaf was not obtainable. Thej' can even be kept alive for a time on Ihe leaf of the dandylion and one or two other plants, amongst them the Osage orange, but of this latter the young and succulent leaves should not be fed But none of these substitutesenables the worm to thrive and produce the quality or quantity of silk that it does from the mulberry.
