Introduction
This book, written by an Englishman who is a member of various British Agricultural Societies, is a combination of lively notes of travel with the serious and exhaustive discussion of an industry which the author has long been recommending to the notice of British colonists. Incidentally he gives interesting information with regard to the agricultural and fruit growing possibilities of Asia Minor, especially as concerns the success which German colonists have had in raising the vine in the neighbourhood of Smyrna. But his main object is to point out the possibilities and explain the processes of silk - culture as practiced in the Levant.
A long residence in China some twenty years ago convinced Mr. Cochran that the cultivation of the Tea - plant and of the Silk - worm might profitably be introduced in certain parts of Queen Victoria’s dominions; and on his return to England he preached this belief so vigorously in the press and elsewhere, that, largely as a result of his words, Tea - farming was taken up on a great scale in Ceylon and in India. But the general adoption of sericulture in the east has been longer deferred, owing to the diseases which, for many years, had been raging among the silk - worms in China and which threatened the success of fresh enterprises of the sort. A few years ago, however, M. Pasteur devoted himself to examining these maladies and to providing a cure; and his lessons having been put in practice in the Levant, Mr. Cochran spent a season there for the purpose of studying the results. These, as seen in the large establishment near Smyrna of Mr. Griffitt - who although an English citizen, has for many years been the consul of the United States - proved to be entirely satisfactory. In his book Mr. Cochran exhibits this fact in a clear way, and gives full accounts, carefully illustrated, of the whole process.
Preface
Whether the reader be a professional man, a manufacturer, or a trader, there is likely to arrive a period in his life when a change of climate and scene, however brief, will be required for the resuscitation of his jaded faculties; and probably no such change could be more complete and beneficial in every respect than a trip in a Cunard steamer along the Mediterranean. Accordingly, for the benefit partly of all hard workers, the following notes of the writer’s experience during a recent voyage to, and a short residence in, Turkey have been penned. I refrain from naming any particular season of the year for such a trip as being either the best or one to be avoided. The time of each one’s going must clearly depend on personal convenience as much as on other considerations. In my own case the date was fixed without regard to temperature, serene skies, or a placid ocean; I required to reach one of the Levantine ports before the end of March, 1885, so the cold of a boisterous February, and the swell of the tumbling Atlantic had to be faced as best I could, in the hope that the union of a search after health, and the prosecution of some important inquiries, might not prove incompatible.
