stopped over in the Land OF the Sky ana
took in the Bltmore farm near by on the
fertile bottom land of the French Broad
river. They saw one hundred acres of as
fine corn as ever grew out OF the ground,
then on the other side was another hum
acres set to Alfalfa about waist high, and
upon which the 200 fine sleek COWS were
feeding. A little story goes thus: While
these two young men were looklnx at the
cattle, they saw among them pretty
calf which they priced and was told by
the keeper 1t was only worth seven hum
dred dollars, whereupon they replied,
YOU misunderstood US, we did not wish to
purchase the whole herd but the calf
alone. The keeper turned his head aside
and smiled audibly and the young men
stood aghast, being shocked by the price,
they too smiled and turned away to look
at the poultry. They were much pleased
with everything around Biltmore as every
convenience that the mind of man could
suggest was there. They continued their
Journey for 65 miles up the French Broad
taking in the scenery which was grand,
picturesque and beautiful. On every side
great mountain peaks lifted their azure
heads far into the sky, then a yawning
CANYON, next fertile valleys along which
glided the gently flowing river rejecting
these beauties OF nature in its placid
bosom.
i These young men are home but came
without the calf.
