A brief news note from Nature (21 April 1887) reporting that machinery for reeling silk from cocoons was set up in Washington by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It mentions heavy public demand for the Department's Bulletin on Silkworm Culture, which required seven or eight editions, and record requests for silkworm eggs. The note anticipates large quantities of American-grown silk reaching the market that year.
