SILKWORM INDUSTRY
LADY HART-DYKE’S HOBBY. Lady Hart-Dyke has a special stall at the Glasgow Exhibition to demonstrate the progress she is making with her silkworm hobby. Her farm at Lullingstone is a pleasant place of pilgrimage to those who are interested in the silkworm industry. It attracts so many visitors, indeed, that Lady HartDyke is proposing to set up tearooms and a refreshment buffet in the old Tudor barn attached to the estate. The dimensions to which she has developed her hobby may be gauged from the fact that this year she plans to breed no fewer than two million silkworms. Lullingstone will be more popular than ever this year, for overseas visitors who go to Glasgow and visit Lady Hart-Dyke’s stall, are sure to be fired with some of her enthusiasm and inspired by a desire to be shown over her farm when they pass through London afterwards.
