TO CORRESPONDENTS.
"Poor Biddy."—Tho infallible party is only misleading you. Mrs Bladen Neill (who knows more of silk worm raising than anyone else in the colonies), in her book on silk culture, distinctly Bays tho proper mulberry treo to raise for silk-worms does not bear fruit; Baron Yon Mueller assorts the same ; and the Australasian, in its series of papers on the subject, made the same remark ; and finally, there are old trees in Napier, which happen to be of tho non-fruit bearing sort, we can giro you tho address whore you can see them if you call. Every fool knows there are white mulberries, but they aro not grown on the tree the leaves of which are raised for silkworms. Apparently hecase they know no better.
