Maj. Logan was instructed TO commu-

consequently much of it runs TO
waste. To provide against these loss
es and in order to secuer the full use
of the plant it is the custom in many
cases to provide a small reservoir of
sufficient capacity to hold what is
pumped during the night. This is then
used the following day with what
the pump is able to supply. This
practice makes it possible to give
better attention to its distribution
and by the use of a double head, a
very material saving is made.
Although there are many thous-
ands of pumping plants in successful
operation today, pumping for irriga-
ton is still in it's infancy. The last
few years have seen a wonderful i'm

IRRIGATION BY
MEANS OF PUMPS
ADDRESS OF DON II. BARK, IR-
RIGATION ENGINEER ON
SUBJECT OF INTEREST
Thousands of Acres Under Irrigation
BY Means of This System and Per-
feet Satisfaction In Nearly Every
Instance.

The following interesting address
on irrigation, and its various phases
was delivered by Don. H. Bark, r.
rigation Engineer in charge Of in
vestigations in Idaho, at the session
of the Movable School of Agricul-
ture at Armory Hall Thursday after
noon. 1t is full of valuable sugges-
lions and information to every cit
izen of this state which has taken
the lead over all others in matters
pertaining to irrigation:
There has been a very rapid IN
crease in the area of land irrigated
by pumping during the past few
years. At least one half of the LAM
irrigated in the state of Kansas is
supplied by pumping plants These
vary in size and design from the
5000 acre plant of the sugar COM
pany at Deerfeld, Kansas, down 10

hence the Kansas irrigator is com
PEELED to secure his water supply
from wells Fortunately water IS
found in sufficient quantities com
paratively near the surface and as
gasoline can be bought by the bar
rel for liz to IL cents per gallon,
the expense Of pumping is not pro-
hibitive
There are now several hundred in
dividual plants in Kansas scattered
along the Arkansas valley from the
Colorado line 100 miles eastward.
The machinery Of these plants con-
sist of gasoline engines of from ? to
2 horse power and centrifugal
pumps from 200 to 1000 gallons per
minute capacity. The lifts average
between 10 and 25 feet and the plants
supply all the way from five to two
Hundred acres each. From mechanical
tests Of about % of these plants made
by the writer during the summer Of
1908 it was found that the cost OF
gasoline and lubricating oil ran all
the way from $3.50 to $3.l5 per
acre foot. AS ordinary crops require
2 acre feet and over per annum it is
seen that the annual cost per acre foi
gasoline would range from $500 &c
$3.50 and over.
Gasoline costs about double thu
amount in Idaho and these cost:
seem rather high to many but thu
