Otherwise It would he Impossible to account for the manner In which Washington readied out beyond hi Immediate field a n landowner to greater enterprise; nnd how eventually he became the first practical tnrnsportatlon man In the ('tilted Suites. Washington, of course, was a landowner. That Is, his prime business was to run landed estates. If was a declining business when he took It up, when by t lie death of his father and then of Ids two brothers he rame Into Inpossession of very large properties. cluding the Mount Vernon estate mid Ae number of adjacent plantations. of acres had land, P.txn) be ltogether pretty much In one body along the Potomac.

That land he carried on ns a business enterprise, as you would do if you were charged with sueh a responsibility. to make fi.OOtl acres of land pay If you could. lie was the first Virginian to see that tobacco was played out because the land was worn out; that the land would not stand the pressure of continued 'tobacco crops. So he turned to the culture of wheat He built a mill to utilize that wheat nnd he sent It to market. Ue had his own brand. Kept Accounts Faithfully. According to the customs of the time, he put tip a distillery In order to make a different disposition of a part of his product. That Is to say, Washington sought all the different kinds of agriculture that could he maintained on his farm. He raised blooded stock of a superior kind. The king of Spain made him a present of a very vnluah'e jack, nnd he raised mules and apparently raised them to advantage. Furthermore. Washington was a natural accountant, and the proof is in his diaries and in his account hooks. Almost the iat thing that he put on paper was a little hit of bookkeeping. He kept his records In a clear, legible hand. He kept them according to the customs of the times. That is. he recorded whatever went on. His diaries have been published in four volumes hut they tell you nothing of what He put down Washington thought. not what he thought hut what he did. who his visitors were, if he went to church or stayed at home. That is, he kept a record to which he could refer to show very nearly where he was every day and what he was dothe utlon and u ing. Ue was an analytic bookkeeper, and suspect one of the first In America. Hence we find his accounts very carefully subdivided. .We find an account for ear-- plantation, a general account, bow much he gained out of wheat, how much from tobacco, how many slaves he had. what the expense had been, and so on. He had that Inextinguishable love of figures that affects some men. Even Gambling Losses Listed. Washington loved to keep books. One of Ids biographers has calcula'ed He lost To his losses In gaming. pounds In a year, and he kept the ac 1 count r ! r n! d It up.
