IRRIGATION METHODS.

Esurrow and Flooding Systems-In.
the Case OF Fruit Trees, Etc.
Under the furrow method Of irriga-
ton parallel burrows are plowed lead
ing from the ditch through the field be-
tween the rows of the crop to be irri-
gated. A small opening is made in tho
ditch to let the water into each furrow.
A dam Of canvas or earth Is placed in
the ditch just below the lowest furrow
into which water is being run at the
time, thus holding the water nearly
level in that part Of the ditch from
which it is being drawn. Where the
slope of the ground is excessive these
burrows must be run diagonally or ir-
regularly in order to reduce their grade
and thus prevent erosion Of the soil.
In the case of fruit trees it is gen.
orally found desirable during very hot
weather to prevent the water from
coming into actual contact with the
trees because Of the danger Of scald-
ing. Flooding the surface also results
In some soils in baking and compacting
the earth about the trunks and roots
of the trees. To avoid these conse-
quences the furrow system is employ
ed, one or two burrows being plowed
along each side of row of trees at
distance Of two or three feet there
from, and the water is turned from
the ditch into these burrows and per-
mitted to traverse them slowly from
end to end, thoroughly soaking the
ground as it progresses and reaching
into the roots without coming in con-
tact with the stems above the surface.
The necessary moisture is thus impart-
ed without the wetting and subsequent
baking of the surface which might re-
suit from flooding. When the trees
are sufficiently irrigated, the water is
turned out Of these burrows and into
others, the process being thus contin-
ued until the whole area has been sery-
ed. The burrows are then filed in with
a pillow, the whole surface worked over
with cultivator and no trace left of
either the burrows or the application
of water.
This method also requires the atten-
ton of an irrigator to see that tho
proper amount of water is kept in each
furrow and it does not break out and
flood the surface in places, leaving
the furrow beyond the break without
water. One man can take care of

FuRRow IRRIGATION.

FURROW IRRIGATION.
considerable number of these burrows
at once and under favorable conditions
Of surface and water supply can &C.
complish the irrigation of as great an
area in given time as by the flooding
system.
This method is also applicable to the
irrigation Of corn and in fact of any
crop whatever which is planted regu-
larry in rows, a single furrow between
each two rows being generally used for
such crops When applicable, 1t is the
favorite method both for it's conven-
fence and the economy of water there
by effected. But where the ground is
very irregular this plan is often incon-
venient, for the reason that the fur
rows paralleling the rows of crop
would upon such surfaces be up and
down hill and would therefore not car
~ water. To make this method ap-
plicable in such cases it would be nee
essary that the rows follow approx
mately the contour of the ground in or
der that the parallel burrows might
carry water throughout their entire
length. The irrigation of irregular sur
faces, however, is generally conducted
under the flooding system except in To-
calities where, as in parts Of southern
California, the value of the crop fire.
quently warrants the expense of level
ing off or terracing irregular surfaces
or the application of water through
buried pipes, as it is arranged in the
water supply of cities.
A modification of the flooding meth
cd is the compartment or check system
of irrigation practiced in some locali-
ties, particularly in portions of Arizo-
ma. This consists in dividing the field
to be irrigated into squares or com
partments by levees or bikes of such
height as to cause the water to stand
over the entire area of the compart-
ments at one time, the water being adj
mitted to each compartment by means
of gate in the levee. The water is al
lowed to stand until the ground has be-
come properly moistened, the time de-
pending largely upon the character of
the SOIL The compartments or squares
vary in size according 70 the slope of
the ground, but are not usually more
than an acre or SO in area.-J. O.. III

A Good Late soilinx Crop.

A crop of barley and peas is very
useful for late soiling and may be seed
ed from Aug. to Sept. in New Jer-
sey Its field management is practical
~ identical with that Of oats and peas
1t is not injured by light frost and can
be fed throughout the months of Oc-
tober and November. The yield, how
ever, is very materially Influenced by
the season. If the weather is cool and
moist throughout August and Septenl-
Der, nearly as large yields may be OBJ
tanned as from crop of oats and peas,
but IL the fall is dry and hot the crop is
liable to be very much reduced, as the
pea particularly is seriously injured
by such weather conditions.

GROW.
143 to see which beets were made COM
Portable and. which were SO cramped
and hampered that they were COM
PEELED to throw out feeders, or fingers
and toes.
Fleshy, rapid growing roots, as the
beet, or tubers, as the potato, in order
to expand and grow naturally in the
ground must have the soil so mellow
and loose that in growing they will not
be crowded out. In the case of the
beets with the prongs the subsoil had
not been properly loosened so that the
roots could develop in it, and as growth
progressed feeding roots were thrown
out in the directions of least resist
anee, and the result is monstrosity.
1t has been found that plant will
send out feeding roots in the direction
of the most available plant food.
Where fertilizer was applied to beets
as top dressing large per cent of
the crop was i'll shaped. The sugar
beet requires for proper growth deep,
mellow, well drained SOIL If these
conditions are not present naturally,
they must be produced artificially by
those who would succeed in growing
beets for the factory.
What is true of the crop just men
toned is true to greater or less ex-
tent Of all farm crops. Certain fcondf-
tons are required to make the plants
comfortable and these conditions vary
with different crops.
In potato culture one question which
is asked more than all others combined
is, what makes the potatoes grow out
of the groundw We are Informed that
the potatoes must be hilled in order to
keep the tubers from becoming sun
burned. A rapidly growing tuber must
have a mellow soil on all sides in
which to expand If it is to expand uni
formly. If the lower side of the pota-
to rests upon hardpan or upon soil
which has not been well fitted, it must
of necessity expand in an upward di-
rection.
The pillow If properly used is the most
effective weapon of the farmer in re-
ducing the soil to state of subsection.
It destroys undesirable plants, it aer-

Statement Of MIR. Lucas
Amadeo, Member Of Chamber
OF Commerce Committee.

Mr.. Lucas Amadeo, member O1
the Committee of the Porto Rican
Chamber of Commerce, who has been
. valuable contributor to the BoLE-
TIN NERoANTIL, made, among Of
hers, the following statement before
leaving for Washington: "We leave
to-day for Washington to accomplish
the high mission imposed upon us
by the Assembly of the 9TH instant.
1t is not our intention while there
to defend resolutions on matters of
personal profit.
Our attitude has been clearly de-
fined in the articles we have pub
lished from time to time in the Bo-
LETIN MEROANTlL,
We will not tire in our efforts to
defend the interests of our agricul-
turists as their cause is one of sim
pie justice.
The present painful condition of
the labor forces cannot continue any
longer; at the same time we must
make some move to relieve the pre-
sent state Of destitution among the
poorer classes.
1t is an error to say that in Puer-
to Rico there is sufficient capital to
attend to the PRONUNCIATION of Agri-
culture; when in happier times the
necessary capital was not to be OBJ
tanned. Puerto Rico needs credit at a
long term with very small interest.
We will propose to the Congress
at Washington several combinations
by means of which this result can
be attained.
We will ask them to make some
move towards improving the roads
on the island. Good roads, will be
q strong measure for the expansion
of agriculture
