said Blanchard. "The total acreage in

London, May 13. According to a
London paper there will be 120,000
guests In London during JUne, July and
August, who by conservative estimate
will spend $10,000,000, and who, by gen
erous calculation, will contribute $30,-
000,000 to the current funds of the hope
ful tradesmen of the English capital.
Vast and almost impossible as this
amount of holiday expenses reads, it is
but a drop In the golden bucket which
has been kept full to overflowing by
Anglo-American alliances, which, since
the days of Elisabeth Patterson, the
Baltimore belle, whose little dot of $100,-
000 enriched Jerome Bonaparte, has
risen by dowers and settlements to the
amazing sum according to a patient
gatherer of statlstlcs--to $1,000,000,000.
What Alliances Save Brought.
In fact, the spending of American
revenues in English affairs, matrimo
nial and social, has grown Into a veri
table passion. The $15,000,000 dot of
Consuelo Vanderbllt, the $7,000,000
brought to the Duo de Bine by Mrs.
Frederick Stevens, the $21,000,000 whicn
Captain 8pender Clay secured with Miss
Astor, the $16,000,000 which Miss May
Goelet brought to the Duke of Rox
burghe, and the other millions that the
Countess Szechenyl, the Countess Pap
penhelm. Lady Decles and the Duchess
of Manchester took with them to the al
tar, are a few high lights In the oft
told story which is again being re
counted with the coronation festrvlties
as Its text.
-The estlmsted millions that will come
from the tourists' purses. It should be
noted, do not, of course, Include the
other millions that will be spent this
season by those Americans who may be
described as permanent American hosts
and hostesses. Taking a hundred names
of well known Anglo-Americans, It Is
certain that a sum will be spent by
them In ntertalnments amounting ap
proximately to from three to five, mil
lion dollars, during the coronation week
proper on caterers, decorators, florists,
musicians, dressmakers, milliners, pro
vision merchants and tradesmen gen
erally. Indeed, if some reports of contem
plated lavlshness that have been re
ceived here are true, these figures aie
an absurdly low calculation. It has
been intimated, for Instance, that Cap
tain and Mrs. Drummond have been
making sturdy efforts to secure from
the Marshall Field estate such conces
sions as will allow them to spend
$1,000,000 for coronation entertain
ments. Mrs. D rex el to Spend Fortune.
Mrs. Anthony Drexel has returned
from America, fortified sufficiently to
carry out her plans of surpassing all
her previous records of splendid enter
tainment during this summer. H.t
house In Grosvenor square is one of the
finest In London and Mrs. Drexel Is
one of the handsomest, best dressed
and richest Jeweled matrons In London
even among 4Vmerlcan hostesses.
The Countess of Granard, formerly
Miss Beatrice Mills, Is also making
elaborate plans to take froyt rank
among coronation hostesses. Mr. and
Mrs. Odgen Mills are to be with her
as affectionate and forceful assistants
during the greater part of the season
and entertainments on a gorgeous scale
are planned. By this enterprise, Mrs.
Granard's collection of gems, which Is
on a par with that of any American
peeress, has been added to by a set of
diamond shoulder straps which are the
last word in personal adornment. But
every titled American will make the
effort .of her life this historic season.
The Diicliesses of Roxburghe, Marlbor
ough snd Manchester have large pro
grams; the Countess of Essex will en
tertain for the first time expensively
at Bourdon house and even the Count
ess of Suffolk will leave her beloved
country home to join the gay throng.
The Countess of Craven, 'Lady Ancas
ter, Lady Newborough and Lady Leith
of Fyvle are among the other titled
Americans who will be much "to the
fore."
Dorchester house, of course, wlll.be
the center of American activity and
Mrs. Reld Is rather dreading the ordeal
or constant entertaining. Mrs. Miliar
Graham, Mrs. William Leeds, Mrs. Jo
seph Stickney. Mrs. Graef, Mrs. .Arthur
Glasgow, Mrs. Waldorf Astor and Mrs.
Henry Coventry are a few others .who
will be constantly! receiving guests. It
looks, in fact, as if no member of the
American colony of any note will b
absent from London during conoration
week and several who Ijave not been
here for a long time will resume thedr
roles of prominent hostesses.
Among these are Mrs., John- Mackay
and Mrs. James MacDonald, wife of
the Standard Oil magnate,. Mrs. Mackay,
owing to bereavements and bad health.
has been long absent from London. She
la now In New York, but Is expected
at her House In Carlton' house terrace
before the first of June. Mrs.. Mackay
owns one of the imposing residence In,
London, its marble staircase la one of
the sights of the town- . She will prob
ably give two great, concerts and 'sev
eral dinner parties. v ,i
Mrs. MacDonald. whose husband must
constantly go abroad In search
Fiealth. was the first American to start 1
'pink teas, and other colored entertain- '
ments in Ixmdon. She has a fine house '
in Cadogan square and is expected to

number of 18,000 have been set, tha
area covered being 15 acres.
The irrigation system installed Is
most complete, and Is the largest In the
west where gasoline power Is tiseit for
pumping, the watei. Tha pumping gta
tlon is located in a concrete and Iron
building located on the river bank and
the water Is forced through It Inch

manufacture, one being of 80 horsepow
er capacity and guaranteed to lift ,J0O
gallons per minute to, an elevation of
260 feet, while the other is of 33 -horsepower
capacity and guaranteed to lift
1100 gallons per- minute to the eleva

stave construction, mounted upon soMd -concrete
foundations, and with capacity -ranging
from 75,000 to 126,000 gallons.
Market Gardening. .

feature in the plans of the owners of
the project and at the present time US
acres are devoted to potatoes, cabbage,
canteloupe. watermelons, lettuct, sweet,
potatoes and other vegetables. More 1 "
than 100,000 cabbage plants have- been :
6et during the past few weeks , while
melons, potatoes and other vegetables .'
are successfully cultivated between tha
apple trees on the flat district. . Com- '
paratlvely small aieas will this season
be devoted to tomatoes, celery and other
