From ths American JS.ik Grower. , Preservation of Silk Worm Eggs. let I houses not the on'y means by which these may be preserved from hatching. i Those who design feeding suk worms fiom the moms mul icaulis, planted in du* Spiing, should know how I ho eggs maybe ' k? pt from handi ng hy the increased warmth 1 of the season, ttoforc the leaves huvc nt'uin- * ed a size snflV-ien' tonflbrd enough food lee houses have been m iiu1y depende I 1 upon (or ihis purpose, but the results of nn 1 experiment tnudo hy Aubcrt, manager of * thellovul Domain at Neu lly, n< ar Paris, ' shows that" silk worm eggs may be kept 4 i i wo years, and perhaps f,?r u much longer ' period, iv tliont being subjected lo a gicamr : degr* 0 of cold them lit.it ivliieli forms tlu> 1 natural tcitiffer.itnro of" tho earth, namely. 1 abou; 56 <?r or Fahrenheit. So that eel-j f lars, caves, and wells, froin which tho at- I 1 mos|ih;;iie nir is excluJed, will answer us ' depositories for thu preservation of eggs ' as w. |j, if not better, than ice houses. The following is a condensed account of Aubcrl's experiments:?Silk worm eggs, ^ obtained from moths in 1831, nt the regular season, were put into a sin .11 tir> box which f was df-positoJ in a cellar at Nouilly. The ; tcifipOMu-u of this eel er during Hie great- ! . est bent of August 1835 never rose above ! . 11 Reunmuer. or 57 Fahrenheit, nor del j J (be eggs manifest the sligh'est indication j <if hatching. Having remained in'licsoine situ uion during n not Iter season, they w?*r<*, aftor a lapse of abou' 22 mon lis, brought out and hutched by C. Buauvis, under whlS'sM superintendence ih?y were reared with tho most perfhet succ ss. Tim result of this exp- rmrnt mokes us acquainted with some highly interesting and 1 useful fttcts. It demonstrates clearly tiiat ' silk worm eggs require n temperature high- ' or than that met with in thu earth at the * ordiuary depths of Cellars and wells, to give ' th m thu baching movement, and cons*. 1 i quendy go*s lo show that the preservation 4 I of 8'Ik wotrm egus can probably he mom suf ly e Use tod in cellars properly ud-tptud ! for tho purpose, than in ice houses. Th< se 4 last arc not always within the reach of per- * sons engageJ in retiring silk worms, where, as almost every ono can have access to a j suitubtu collar, c ive, or dry well. Tho tduco wliere thooiriMare deuosited 1 should bo closed or rut off so as to prcvttni the circu'ution ofi.s air wli cli will thus al- 1 w.iy< remain nt the temperature of the sur- 1 rounding earth. A thermometer placed ' near the eggs should be examined occasi- I onally in the warm season, to ascertain 1 whether the temperature ke-'ps suflicietrl) 1 low. It *i|l not do to trust to the feel.tigs for this purpose, as a place may feci sutfi- ' ciently cool, whilst it is actually warm en- c outfit to ciuse the eggs to ha'chout. To r insure success the thermometer should nev- 1 er be above 50 or 57. The eggs h iving ' once puss d througli their hybernation, a 1 very short exposure to warin'h will rxritu the ha'cb ng movement, so that handling or <breathing upoutho vessels containing ilicm, should be avoided as much ns possible. 1 In asserting that silk worm eggs may be prevented fiom hatching, if kept at a temp. I endure not exceeding 07 Fahrenheit, some explanation may be necessary, especially to those who, in their attempts at preservation, : have hail tiio eggs to hatch in vessels almost : r f not directly in contact with lee. The c ?gg< Josigned to be kept from hatching must j bo deposited in the situation where tley are to remain, either previous to winter, or at * least some time before its close. This wll i prevent thein from starting or getting a i tendency to fSttch ; for if this hatching movement ever commences, the worms must be suffered to corne out at the natural period, and any attempts to rasirain them from doing so, will destroy the embryo insect in the shell, or injure it to such a degree that the worm* will either die sorn after hatching, or drag out n ft able existence. If ih?*y live to spin, their cocoons will lie very indifferent. S.Ik worm eggs imported from Europe last winter and spring, generally turned out very unfavorably with those who utt? mpteil JO preserve them for late feeding the put,! season. The reason of thi unity doubtless be thus explained. K,'gs of 'he one crop race generally require to be Kcj>t over it winter netore they are suscep'j. IjIi* of hatching. After passing a whole or even * P' rtion of winier, all that they re?jii re 10 ruiao in them the hatching movement Is a proper degree of wurmih, ami this they meet.with in crossing the gull m ream, the temperature of which is never below 70 even in the dead of winti r. Silk worm eggs that have thus had the hatching tendency excited in them during their vov' ago to this country may serve very well for the first or early crop ; but uny attempts to keep tlu m back for lato feeding will end in disappointment ns no degree o( cold will answer which will not either destroy, or'produce irreparable injury to the tender embryo. Not so however, where the eggs have been deposited in a cool situation previous < /<> :?hi et\ For being thus from ; acquiring any tendency to naicn, tney inuy i bo preserved so long as their temperature t do?'s not riso above 57 and would, per. t haps, even resist one, two or thr? e degrees I more. At live mido timo they receive no injury from #*posur? in ice houses or re. c trigeraiors, to the iowest degrees of cold, I which they do after the hatching movement r lis* once commenced. I All autltortiius upon tire subject of pres- I crving silk worm egg*, agree as to the nr. i cesiity of keeping them as dry ss possible. Tin's may bo dono by putting them in'o C ? w wxes or lio'tlen and packing these nway in : urjpr boxes or barrels, tiiesiden and inter- I 'ula being filled with dry materials, such > s shavings, eh'ircod, ?Stc.
