A Successful Experiment.
DR.. Merchant, of Glendale, expert.
mented in artesian well irrigation
this year with quite favorable results.
Irrigation was direct from the city
we'll and also from the waste waters
of the we'll, pumped by wind mill.
In the plat irrigated direct from
we'll, although only two irrigations
were given, the results were highly
satisfactory, only garden crops, con.
sisting of celery, onions, cabbage, to.
matoes and most of the other garden
vegetables, were irrigated. Over an
acre of celery was planted, and al
though it was watered only when set
out and just before banking up, it
made a splendid growth'and the quail
ty was excellent.
The supply of water vas so small.
being only an inch pipe, that not all
the onions could be irrigated, but
where water was applied they yielded
at the rate of 600 bushels per acre,
The cabbage was mostly destroyed by
lice, as they were very troublesome
this season. He set out about 400 to-
mato plants but lie was experiment
ing with different varieties, not more
than half of them proved valuable for
that locality. These were the Dwarf
Champion, Early Ruby and Atlantic
Prize. From sthese 200 plants thirty
bushels OF tomatoes were raised sell.
ing at eighty cents per bushel. AL
other vegetables were irrigated il
small quantities, but the yield was
abundant and quality unsurpassed

Because of the lateness of the sea

condition of the land, having remain.

irrigation by windmill was not wholly
satisfactory.
