MILLIONAIRE HUsBANDa1AN.
How George W. Vanderbilt Makes His
 Famous Biitmore Farm Pay.

Famous Biltmore Farm Pay.
 Broadway Magazine.
 At Biltmore, in North Carolina, George w. Vanderbilt has spent over s2.oo0.oo0 In creating the greatest es- tate in America. He has torn down a mountain, built a great castle. and owns seventeen square miles of noun tain country. These miles, however, are all under the most careful culti- walton. either as farming, grazing. or timber lands.
 Thesowner of Biltmore has the facul- ty of picking the right men for the right work. He Induced book farm CT" from Louisiana to come Into the Carolina mountains and take charge of the fields. nocks. and herds. That was eleven years ago, and until Arthur $. Wheeler began riding up and down the hills and through the bottoms he had mover known of agriculture ex- cept from the printed page. He tested the soil of the few little worn -out plan tations on the estate, he examined the hlllsIdes. He brought into play his knowledge of fertilizing the earth, of crop rotation, of the fodder and grain which might grow here, and especially of the live stock which might thrive and yield a profit. He decided that high grade Jersey cattle would pay in milk and butter, also hogs and poultry. and that the product of the soil should be first for their benefit So the bare hills became pastures. and lots for the swine 70 range, ample shelters being. oi course, provided. The poultry farm was stocked with record egg layers of high degree also pigeons, for squabs ars profitable. Modern. incubators matched chickens by the hundreds. Ev- orytning, however, was conducted on strictly business ines. Each Jersey Ia tall aA lea. cha dairy record. Every time she is milk ed the number of quarts she gives are marked on the record, as is also the butter test-the quantity of butter which the cream would make. All the ensIlage ana other fodder she eats in d day are debited against her. When q hen in the poultry house wants to con- tribute to the egg fund, she enters
 trap" nest by which she shuts a gate which keeps her prisoner until the poultry keeper finds her. He looks at the number on the leather band around her neck, takes the egg, and then re- leases her Each hen also has a rec ord page according to her number, and the number ot eggs she lays In month or year of her life are noted on the books at the farm office.
 Seventy-five farm hands are needed for all purposes. including the milking, which is done by hand. The creamery has such a mechanical system that in 1t three men prepare over a thousand quarts of milk daily In bottles, In but ter. and in Ice cream the yield of the cows ranging from eight to fifteen quarts or more a day. The Asheville people who boast of having a Wander bilt for a milkman have to pay II cents a quart as 1t comes from the shiny yellow wagons bearing the sign Biltmore Daily. and think 1t Is cheap.

Like the estate of a millionaire with too many children the weather re- mains unsettled. The elements pro- ductive of uncertainty in the diagno- sis are the tail-end of low barometer area and the advance guard of high barometer area. Tte preponderance of the former predicates rain with only a slight decrease. if any. in the tenn perature: that of the latter. fair weather and a material drop in the thermometer reading. It Is expected that for the first few rounds the low barometer area will lead in the clash climaxinE It's efforts with rain in the afternoon.
 The high barometer area will then force the fighting and for two days fair and cooler weather will prevail. At least. this is the statemet of the official bureau.

 The negro. 1t Is alleged. stole from the pressing club of Burton simmons, located on Grady Street, two pairs of paints, one skirt and hat. of the total value of S25. The articles were the property of N. J. Greil.
 The prevalence of such examples or petty thieving has attracted the atten- tion of the police and determined ef- forts are being made to stamp them out. A number of arrests have been made during the summer for the per petration of similar robberies. despite the fact that the fines imposed have had a marked deterrent effect.
