RESTORING The STUpEMnOUS IRRIGR-
Ti0N SYSTEM OF CEYlON,

In the last week in February a
succession of festivities and cere-
monies took place at Kalawewa, in
Northern Ceylon, to celebrate the
restoration by the Government of
the great tank at that place. These
huge reservoirs, which are called
"tanks" in India and Ceylon, spread
cultivation and fertility over large
tracts of country, which, without
them, are given over to marsh and
jungle. Northern Ceylon, especial
ly districts which in the early cen
turies of our era supported large po-
pulations, are now, owing to the
ruin Of the irrigation works of the
ancient kings, almost uninhabitable.
For some years past the Colonial
Government have steadily directed
their efforts to restoring these
mighty works. and early in the
present year the Kalawewa tank,
the largest and most important in
Ceylon, was declared completed.
The tank was constructed in 460 A.
D., to supply the ancient capital of
Anuradhapura and the neighbor-
hood, the water being conveyed
from it by canal ID miles in length,
which on its way supplied large
system of village tanks. 1t has an
area of 4,425 acres, or about seven
square miles, with q contour of 30
miles. On all sides but one it Is
surrounded by high ground, from
which it is fed. On the remaining
side an enormous embankment was
constructed, which measures six
miles in length, with a breadth of
20 feet at the top, and an average
height Of 60 feet. 1t is formed Of
large blocks of stone and earthwork,
and provided with fine spill wall 260
feet long, 200 feet wide, and about
40 feet high. Just beyond this wall
was the great breach which destroy
ed the tank at some unknown period.
1t was 1000 feet broad, and it is
not known whether it was caused by
u heavy flood or by an invader.
This is the breach which has just
been repaired. A huge masonry
wall has been thrown across, the
canal has been renewed, and regu-
lating sluices and other works have
been provided. The whole has
taken four years. 1t is described
by Mr.. Burrows in his "Buried
Cities of Ceylon" as the grandest
experiment in irrigation ever under
taken in modern Ceylon, for its COM
pletion means the resuscitation of
the most important part of the
second largest province in the ISL
and. When the work of restoration
began the bed of the tank was quite
hard and dry; it is now covered
with seven square miles of water
twenty feet deep, and supplies
towns and villages over an area as
great as an English county, and fill
ing tanks belonging to considerable
towns more than fifty miles away,
which in their turn become centers
of distribution. With all this the
Government of Ceylon in the Nine,
teenth century is only restoring the
work of the Government of the fifth
century, London Times, April l3.
