Lloyd George Writes His Memoirs;
CFesSpare Hours To Model Farm
sssssssssessssesssss'
usy Associated Press;

"A ss L.
LONDON, Nov. 18.-David
Lloyd George has something on his
mind these days besides his work
in the house of commons.
BY the end of the year he hopes
to A,mplete the first volume of his
memoirs, which are expected to
run to three volumes. The first
will bring the record to the end
of 1916.
This authorship has become per-
haps the major interest of the
present-day life of Britain's war
time premier. But it will be some
time before he gets to the point
of relating his story of the days at
Versailles when he, Woodrow Viii
son, Clemencaau of France and
Orlando of Italy formed the big
four" of the peace conference.
Another interest, pursued chief
ly as a recraational hobby, is
"Brony-De," his estate near Churt,
Surrey. The place is run as. a sort
of model farm, with experiments
in the latest methods of making
England's soil yield food for the
home market.
One of the tests this year was on
fertilizing potato fields. The result
was a fine yield of big, round
''spuds' whose soundness and size
delighted the veteran statesman.
He took pains to tell other farm
ers all about it, for addressing
meetings of agriculturists is one
of his diversions and he seldom
misses gathering in the Churt
neighborhood.
With the fallow season at hand,
however, he puts in long hours at
his writing. He does much of this
work in bed, frequently waking at
$40 o'clock so as to get good
start on the days output. On this
schedule he has completed more
than 10000 words of his first
volume.
While the daily output is re-
tricted in a measure by the time
he has available and tho ease or
difficulty of the particular sub
jeet, he has been able on occasion
to turn out 1000 words iIia single
day.
His method has been to provide
frame" for the work by writ
ing the first and last chapters
and then to fill in the interven-
ing material.
