So IL turned out, but the shock OF re-

The Minor Services Of Irrigation.


Irrigation performs host Of small
services. In the nursery the budding
season Is heightened because a run Of
water will cause the bark to slip later
In the season. In the English walnut
orchard the nuts will be more readily
discharged from the husks IL an irriga-
tion is given q little In advance Of the
dropping time. Within certain limits
fruiting can be timed by irrigation and
succession secured. This Is especially
true of small fruits Strawberries can
be made almost constant bearers In
suitable thermal conditions and can
have two main crops In the summer
even where the winters are too cold
for fruiting. Raspberries follow the
same course, and ever bearing black
berries are the ruling variety in the
warmer parts of the irrigated region.
OF course these performances of plants
are dependent upon temperature condi-
tions as well as moisture conditions
and upon the length Of the growing
season which the irrigated semitropical
region enjoys, but the fact remains
that the forcing summer heat Of the
more northerly regions could accom-
plish far more for the grower IL he
should arrange to have that benef-
cence always attended by ample mois-
fure
