Another Fine Baltimore County Farm.


When Mr.. Luther Tucker editor ofthe COM
t,y Gentleman of Albany. N. Y, was in Balti-
more county lately he paid visit to the farm
of Mr.. Edward Austen, near Glencoe, and the
following is what he has to say about it:
'Filston Farm-such is the name of Mr.. Ed
ward Austen's property-is an attractive place
to the lover of natural beauty as well as the
dairyman and the breeder; for the GAO acres of
which it consists embrace some OF the very
loveliest scenery of all this lovely country. Its
bounds extend to the Northern Central Rail-
road at Glencoe, 20 miles north OF Baltimore;
but to reach the handsome mansion, one drives
a mile and half from the station over wind
ing and well shaded road. The surface of the
farm is irregular, giving excellent drainage;
and there are never-failing springs of pure,
clear, cold water (54o) in every field. The soil
is what is called "rotten rock consisting large
ly of disintegrated feldspar, and is bountifully
fertile to a surprising depth Excellent crops
ofgrass were high and rank over broad surfaces
at our recent visit.
at will be seen that the place is admirably
adapted by nature to the bovine race and the
pursuit of dairying in general and it is only
fair to add that every improvement and appli-
ance which the latest knowledge can suggest,
have been supplied, literally and iudiciOusly,
by the enterprising proprietor. The farm is
devoted only incidentally to the breeding of
Jerseys, but chiefly to the production of milk
for Baltimore. There are now 100 cattle in all
on the estate of which 80 are cows in milk,
yielding considerably more than two gallons
per diem each. They are MIXED at IA. NJ. and
81 P. NJ, winter and summer, with great pune
tuality and scrupulous care and neatness-the
mixers being required to wash and put on
clean clothing before beginning, while the cows
are carded, and their udders thoroughly
brushed.
''The stables, it is hardly necessary to remark.
are models of neatness and convenience. We
were particularly struck with the care that is
taken to insure the health and vigor of the

The Wilson Sanitarium.-The sixth year
of this noble institution commenced last Mon
day. 1t is located at Mount Wilson, on the
Western Maryland r. r., near Pikesville, and
daily trains are run to it to convey thither
mothers with their sick children. The farm
contains 10 acres of improved land, 600 feet
above Underwater, and amid the beautiful rolling
country through which the Western Maryland
passes. The buildings in use are six cottages,
including one used for nursery and an excur-
sion house Last year the high ground was
graded and prepared for building at a cost of
$4,000 and the trustees hope to erect next year
enough additional buildings at a cost of $4,000
to accommodate in all 100 children. The cot
tages this year will be in charge of one of the
best trained nurses in the country, and two
trained nurses will also see to the little ones in
the nursery. Transportation to and from the
sanitarium is furnished Free as are also three
good meals day to those who go there The
plan of the institution is to give, as a rule,
mothers a chance to have their sick children
a day in the country. If the mothers cannot
spend the whole day they may leave their
children in the nursery, where every attention
will be given them. While the majority Of
children only spend one day at Mt. Wilson,
provision is made that where necessary they
NAV stay there for two weeks. The number
of children who may enjoy the benefits is, of
course, limited. No cost whatever is attached
to the trip to and from the sanitarium and to
the stay there. Mr.. Thomas J. Price, formerly
of the 9Th district of this county, is superin-
tendent of the farm.
