are connected both with the storage
tank and directly, at the surface Of
the ground, with column delivering
water from the pump cylinder to the
tank. This connection at the surface
of the ground does away, when de-
sired, with the extra lift of about Is
feet to the top of the tank, and, espe-
cially in time Of light winds, increases
the amount of water delivered at the
surface to the irrigating pipe lines.
These lines are of INSTRUMENTATION
ordinary black iron pipe laid, with as
few bends as possible, up and down
hill with the grade, along the lines Of
trees to be irrigated, and at a distance
of one to two feet from them. Each
branch of the system is controlled by
a valve next to the supply. Opposite
each tree bored coupling is placed in
the line. The orifice used is the small
est practicable size, which is 1892 Of
an inch. With a little practice, using
a wise, a brace. and ordinary twist
drills, anyone can make the borings.
This work may be reduced more than
half by filing a notch midway and
crosswise of the coupling with three
cornered file, and boring in the bot
tom of the notch. The complete pipe
line, with bored couplings, is buried
two or three inches below the surface
for protection, being exposed in the
shallow irrigating basins around the
trees. If the line is deeply buried in
the soil the orifices cannot be cleaned
and are liable to be choked by roots.
For convenience of access the orifices
are laid to discharge horizontally, to-
ward the trees. For flushing the line
a removable plug completes each
branch of the system, making it posi-
BILE to remove rust, moss, or other OBJ
structions getting into the water sup
ply and choking the holes.
When it is desired to close an orif1ce
in order to increase the discharge
farther along the line, an ordinary
round wooden toothpick is inserted,
this device being as effective and con-
venient as an expensive stopcock. To

Aneients Did Most Things Better Than

I'VE are losing all our secrets in
this shoddy age" an architect said.
IF we keep on the time will come
when we'll be able to do nothing well.
'Take, for instance, steel. We claim
to make good steel, yet the blades the
years ago would cut one Of our own
blades in two like butter.
take ink. Our modern ink fades in
five or ten years to rust color, yet the
ink Of medieval manuscripts is as
black and bright to-day as it was 700
years ago.
take dyes. The beautiful blues and
reds and green's Of antique Oriental
rugs have all been lost, while in Egyp-
tian tombs> we find fabrics dyed thou
sands Of years ago that remain to-day
brighter and purer in hue than any Of
our modern fabrics.
'sTake my specially, buildings. We
can't build as the ancients did. The
secret Of their mortar and cement is
lost to us. Their mortar and cement
were actually harder and more dura-

"We can't even make artificial dia-
moDds now. Our brilliants Of French
paste were SO beautiful that they could
hardly be told from real brilliants by

HAD TO PAY TWICE.

Plight of an Ocean Traveller Who Lost
His Ticket.
There was one young man on the
steamship New York, says the New
York Times, who paid we'll for his pas
sage. When it came time to present his
ticket to the steward it was not to be
found. Pockets were turned inside out.
trunks were turned upside down, hat
bands torn out and stateroom con-
verified into wilderness of pillows, bed.
clothes and clothing.
The unfortunate passenger asked
every man. woman and child on the
ship: Have you seen ticket No. 1901 ?"
Notices were posted on the bulletin
board. The next day the passenger
lost his identity. Everybody called
him "1,6O1." From that time he was
known by his ticket number.
"Have you seen Mr.. 1901 to-day?''
some one would ask. Then a dozen
voices would ask:
Which 1901 the man or the
ticket?"
After the big dinner Thanksgiving
day. Mr.. 1901" gave up the struggle
and paid 1925 for his passage. This is
the way he figured it up:
II have examined the first and Sec
ond cabin passengers and know every
thing they possess. When l state that
the New York customs authorities
won't get within few thousands OF
what is due them give expert testi-
mony.
1.-THE steerage had 2O2 passengers in
it. 1t would take me at least three
days to examine them, and that would
bring me into Sunday, and as we are
due Saturday, guess I'll give 1t up"
When '.1601" left the pier yesterday
he was better known than the purser.

and, consequently, the number or orr
ices In action, in such a system.
Roughly speaking. with a gven pres
sure the discharge tends to vary with
the square of the diameter of the eri-
flee. Large openings, therefore, sooner
exhaust the capacity of the line and
the length of the system is lessened.
Also, the capacity of the pipe line
tends to vary with five halves power
of its diameter. A four-fourths of one
inch pipe, therefore, in comparison
with three-fourths-inch pipe tends
to carry little more than twice as
much water. With certain size of
orifice, therefore, a larger pipe line
greatly lengthens the series of dis
charges.
The pressure or head, of water at
the initial end of the system also af
fects it's length. Through both pipe
line and orifces the discharge tends
to increase directly with the square
root of the head or depth of water
supply. The net result of an increase
in the supply head therefore is an in
crease in the length of the line of dis
charges. In other ways friction affects
efficiency. If the oridces are rough,
friction is increased, delivery lessened
and the system heightened. If the
pipe line is rough inside. and contains
bends and elbows, friction is also in
creased. but in this case the supply
is lessened and the system made
shorter. Grade also is influential.
Running down hill increases the head
and tends to increase the length Of
the system. Running up hill has an
opposite effect.
During the past three years the
writer has used this system for irri-
eating his own trees. many practical
points having suggested themselves
meantime. The facilities employed are
a we'll in which the water stands at 90
feet depth; q g3xl4-inch pump cylinder
operated by 9 l2-foot geared windmill

the region; 9 5000 gallon storage tank

equalize and lengthen the system, par
tial distractions may be introduced at
the points of greatest discharge.
Thus arranged, when it is desired to
irrigate row of trees, the valve is
turned at the head of the line, the wa
ter is slowly delivered, without waste,
where wanted.
Delivered in this manner in small
slow streams, the water penetrates
deeply into the soil, inducing deep
root systems, and lessening loss by
evaporation. With the system de-
scribed above, and a head of about 20
feet of water, the writer satisfactorily
irrigates as many as 20 trees at time
along athree-fourths-inch line 600 feet
long. With a one-inch pipe and the
1udicfous use Of toothpicks, twice to
three times as many irrfgations could
be made along one line.
In order to lessen surface evapora
