so frequent and the secretions so ir-
regular as to cause me great incon-
yenience. Whenever ] took the least
cold, it was sure to settle in my kid
neys and greatly aggravated my suf-
fering. took several remedies
which gave me temporary relief and
the attacks were sure to return. At

Freewater, Aug. 14.-R. R. Collins,
who owns a small fruit tract half a
mile from the city, will install new
and novel irrigation scheme this fall
II his present plans are carried out
He does not have an abundant supply
OF surface water for irrigating, and
SO he will install a pumping plant
with a tank holding from 5000 to
1000 gallons OF water and elevated
about Is feet above the surface OF the
land.
From this tank he will lay a Pinch
pipe the length OF his fruit tract, and
from this pinch pipe he will lay
series of q Inch pipes the full length
of the tract about 20 feet apart. To
these smaller pipes will be attached
hydrants. from where garden hose
will spray water all over his berry
plants. In this way he will waste no
water by having it run through the
bitches and he will be able to cover
the tract completely by means of
shifting the hose from place to place.
He believes that he will save a large
quantity Of water and that he will al
ways have a plentiful supply to irri-
gate his tract well when it needs it.
A plentiful supply of water is to be
fond about 20 feet under the surface
and it is possible to pump enough with |
a small pump to supply a good sized |
berry tract.
