[Illustration] THE RICINUS SILKWORM. [Illustration] This worm is particularly recommended, as it will feed readily on linden leaves (Dipsacus) and Ricinus thistles, and therefore augurs a great future, as the difficulty of growing mulberry trees in our northern clime was the chief hindrance. By the introduction of this worm all is remedied, and the agriculturist anticipates a brilliant future; he will soon be able to dress in silk instead of tick. The silk of this worm is not as fine, but quite as good, and more productive than that of the genuine silkworm. I sell these insects: Eggs, 13 shillings per dozen. Chrysalis, 3 shillings each.
