U. K. Worms Spun Regal Silk Robes

(By Raina Gupta)

EYNSFORD. Kent, England, Mar l-dReutersi-Nearly 4,000.- 000 liitkworms will soon be spin- ning for Britain's smallest indus- try at the Lulllngstone Castle silk farm in tlii-s small Kent. village.

The farm is the only one of it; kind in the United Kingdom. Lady Hart Dyke. director. told me when i. visited it: "Our annual produc- tion of silk is 1.300 pounds and the demand for it. is tremendous. We‘ ltave. orders on our books which will keep us busy for tr.e next l0 years."

The scucess o! the Luilingstone stlk farm. which is being expand- ed tn set aside considerable iancl for grc-uing muiltcrryt trees. has encouraged other groupie to con- sider silkworm farming as a prof- itable industry. Lindy Hart Dyko said: "As Britain has been import- ing a tremendous amount of raw silk from abroad for many years, it is obvious that there is great. scope for home production:

"Though I started I'M-fink ls a hobby, its potentlal~ itles’ were so attractive that my

farm now employs 22 girls all the

year round."

Lady Hart. Dyke founded the Luilliigsioiie Silk Farm, Lid" m i937 with a. capital of $60000. Since then. 8,000,000 cocoons have been exporter! to Australia, tne Bahamas. the United States and Denmark.

Hvr silkworm: spun the threads for the robes worn by ihc King and Queen at their coronation in i937. and for the dresses of Prin- vossvs Elimbcih and Margaret.

Prim of silkworm eggs rose about b0 per cent during the war put that, did not matter as ths price is negligible-a few shillings in ah ounce; and each ounce toti- inins as tnany as 36.000 to 40.000 egos.

lxitly Hart Dyke explained ‘hat the liuliingslone silk farms pass the raw silk to weavers for nttik-

ing up. “Ours is a silkworm m-‘

dusiry and this in itself absorb our entire attention, leaving time in cmivr-tiirale nr experiment. with oltltor twimws of silk indus- tr.\'-"

Instruments used at. the farm for gelling silk strands from eo- ("orliis are the invention of Sir Oliver Hat-t Dyke. They are Vlry §iYll|liP hut. more itscful than tools in use in oihcz" vminlrtes. Girls

in: a necessity in handling the cocoons and the strand in any form.

Lady Hart Dyke said that me- chanical dcvievs have almost killed small-scale industries oi‘ this type. “I am dreaming of the day when the silkworm industry gets a solid footing in Britain.” she concluded.
