COCOONS AND RAAV SILK. 



Th-^ Northampton Silk Company, will pa^'Cash for Cocoons 

 and Raw Siik at their Establishment at the Oil Mill Place at 

 Northampton. 



The Cocoons should be str'pped of the firss, and placed in 

 the sun three or four days in succession, to destroy the Chrys- 

 alis, aiid should not be packed for transportation till they have 

 been gathered three weeks. If they are put up before well 

 cured, the dampness from the dead Chrysalis will cause them 

 to heat and render them useless. They should be carefully 

 packed in dry boxes or barrels — not pressed butshaken down. 

 The Company will contract for any quantity to 10,000 bushels, 

 to be delivered in good order at Northampton. The price 

 will be regulated according to quality. Cultivators shojid be 

 aware that a loss of lift}' per cent is often made, by want of 

 attention in feeding. Consequently the price will vary — from 

 S2 50 to $5 00 per bushel will be paid. It is the intention of 

 the company, that this shall be a permanent market for Co- 

 coons anti Kaw Silk. Cocoons will be purchased by the 

 pound, as soon as the necessary experiments have been made, 

 to regulate the price according to the age of the Cocoons, as 

 it is well known, that they become gradually lighter tor several 

 months, till all moisture is evaporated. Cultivators in Ver- 

 mont and New Hampshire will find it convenient to forward 

 Cocoons by the River Boats.
