"One early evangelist for silk was Ezra Stiles, who became president of Yale College in 1778 and immediately began urging his faculty members to plant an acre of mulberry trees for each of their children. Observing that silk culture had “ever claimed the attention of the best and most cultivated minds,” Stiles distributed mulberry seeds and silkworm eggs around New England. His diary, Chambliss writes, contained “frequent dartings away from academic matters to the latest developments in silk.” At Yale’s 1789 commencement, he wore a gown made from the silk he’d raised."

In the early 19th century, mulberry trees became associated with economic prosperity and morally upright productiveness, leading to a speculative bubble.
