used for garden crops for many years,
but about eight years ago Mr. Fish con-
ceived the idea Of constructing an irri-
cation plant, as he suffered much loss
on his crops during seasons Of drought.
He had never seen an irrigation sys-
tenn; but. being close student and of
an inventive turn Of mind, he thought
be could bring the water from near
by stream upon bis fields and thus
counteract the action of Old Sol ON a
hot day
The first step was the construction of
dam across the stream. forming a
pond Of about one-half acre in extent
and about ten feet III depth, says il
writer In the Ohio Farmer In describ-
ing the plant This pond has always
furnished an ample supply Of water,
even when the fields were being almost
constantly sprinkled il very dry wealth

the fields above by a pump. operated
by a four horsepower gasoline engine,
The pump throws two barrels Of water
a nalnute AS the engine requires but
little attention, il can be kept running
almost continually, and, with the stor-
age tanks, Mr.. Fish is able to sprinkle
1000 barrels OF water on his growing
crops In a day. The pump is located
az the edge OF the water. the engine
part way up the bank. while tire stand
pipe Is up on the level OF the fields
above
This standpipe, which ia kept pumped
full OF water to the top, regulates the
now of water throughout the entire
system and gives about seven pounds
pressure to the square inch on the
eprinkling hose. The standpipe is made
OF fifteen inch sewer pipe, joined to-
gether with cement, and is sixteen feet
high. Iron pipes. three inches In diam
eter, run from the pump TO the stand
pipe. and the water is then conducted
to the different parts OF the fields by a
line of four inch sewer pipe. the sec
tons Of the pipe being joined together
with portland cement in and around
the joints and laid In a trench two and
half feet underground on an average
This work was done by Mr. Fish and
helper, care being taken TO press tho
cement well into the joints, and an in
gcnious wiper was made which fitted
the inside OF the pipe loosely and was
drawn past each joint as 1t was made.
thus keeping the pipe free from an ex-
cess Of cement on the inside.
