IRRIGATING THE PARKS

SIRE see that somebody is trying to profit
by my suggestions made through your Columns, 10 ro
gard TO irrgating the parks for trial has been made
IN the Battery Castle Garden opposite the Bathing
The result Is highly encouraging for there are
patches Of the loveest green, sucA be no.
where else The authorities ought 10 DO convinced and
90 to work with full faith. when the result will be OF
the most astonishing nature. 1t s true that said ono
should go slow but had idea that work OF any kind
could be done so slowly rs that rrgltng ia tho
Battery. The operator ia big fellow. who has an inch
hose which is conducted into bucket and being full

Is moved to another place By the looks Of things work
was commenced about week ago. for the grass mus,
have started so long ago, while other patches are
in progress and altogether there no more than
few square rods Whether work has been going on all
the time do not know, but do know that can irr
gate in hour than that fellow rrlgate in

Let mo tell you how. First get large hose, say Of
three inches and have 10 long enough to extend 10 the
highest part Of the ground TO be watered and then et
the water OF cOurseit will make food but this
is right for 10 rrigatng you always want water enough
to keep lively. This pattering with an inch stream
and bucket Is simply foong away tins. say let tina
water rum and then have the take the hoe and
duct the water In little channels over the sward He
ought 10 break the sod except the upper surface
say inch deep aud when tho grass starts tho surface
will not DO dstgured in the least When tho water ba,
flooded all the ground possible from polnt remove

selected by the nature OF tho ground which, OF course
requires judgment and ready experience, aud so pro
