FAMOUS PARKS TO BE CULTIVATED. LONDON, Jan 10. Mr. Lloyd George's golf club (Walton Heath) has allotted five acres for potato sowing.

Motor ploughs will be immediately available. Smaller allotments have been chosen in Kensington Gardens and Regent's Park, and Hyde Park for vegetables suited to the London atmosphere and soil.
