Abstract
THE Seventh International Sericultural Congress will be held at Alès (Gard) in the Cevennes during June 7-13, and will be followed by an International Silk Congress at Lyons.

Del-mas, piofessor of sericulture in the École Nationale d‘Agriculture, Montpellier, and the general secretary is M. Schenk, director of the Sericulture Research Station, Alès. The programme is being arranged in a number of sections covering scientific, economic and technical aspects of the subject.
