Book excerpt: Excerpt from Farm Irrigation, And, Orchard Irrigation Though this method is not held to be infallible, it is thought to be accurate enough for comparative results. The attempt was made to keep the water at the proper head by an overflow The greatest trouble was encountered from the grass, weeds and sticks that are carried along in a running stream. These Would reduce the flow considerably by being sucked across the orifice, while there was little to cause the flow to increase from any cause whatever. So it is thought that the amounts of water given are somewhat larger than were actually applied. Taking an average for dive years, however, the comparative results are thought to point strongly to the facts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation by Overhead Sprinkling Although the irrigation of truck crops by overhead sprinkling has long been a common practice in some parts of the United States, with some citrus fruits irrigated this way in Florida, the application of water by overhead sprinkling has but recently become a factor in California orchard irrigation practice. Though scattered installations which have been in operation for some years are to be found in various parts of the State, the majority now in operation have been established since 1924.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation of Orchards Care and good judgment should be exercised in the selection of an orchard tract. If it turns out well the profits are high, but if it fails the losses are heavy. It involves the setting aside of good land, the use of irrigation water, and somewhat heavy expenses in purchasing trees, setting them out and caring for them until they begin to bear. Assuming that the climate and soil of the district selected are adapted to the kind of trees to be grown, the next most important things to consider are good drainage and freedom from early and late frosts. Low-lying lands under a new irrigation system should be regarded with suspicion, even if the subsoil be quite dry at the time of planting. The results of a few years of heavy and careless irrigation on the higher lands adjacent may render the lowlands unfit for or chards. On the other hand, the higher lands are not always well drained naturally. A bank of clay extending across a slope may inter cept percolating water and raise it near the surface. Favored locations for orchards in the mountain States are often found in the narrow river valleys at the mouths of canyons. The coarse soil of these deltas, the steep slopes, and the daily occurrence of winds which blow first out of the canyons and then back into them, afford excellent conditions for the production of highly flavored fruits at the minimum risk of being injured by frost. Proper exposure is another important factor. In the warmer re gions of the West and Southwest a northern exposure is sometimes best, but as a rule the orchards of the West require warmth and sun shine, and a southerly exposure is usually most desirable. Natural barriers frequently intercept the sweep of cold, destructive winds, and when these are lacking, wind-breaks may be planted to serve the same purpose. Depressions or sheltered coves should be avoided if the cold air has a tendency to collect in them, a free circulation of air being necessary to drive away frost. The low-lying lands seem to be the most subject to cold, stagnant air. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation-Enterprise Organizations Irrigation enterprise was defined by the Irrigation Census of 1940 (22, p. XI) 2 as an independent irrigation establishment owning or operating works for supplying water to agricultural land. An enterprise may-represent a short canal or a pumping plant watering a single small farm, or a great system of canals and reservoirs operated under one management supplying thou sands of farms. When systems that serve a number of water users are involved, the term irrigation project is practically synonymous with the term irrigation enterprise. In either case, the term includes not only the physical works but all the affairs of the undertaking. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Irrigation Classic Reprint written by Charles D. Poston and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation Irrigation existed in Egypt before the pyramids were erected. It has fed the millions of Asia since the creation of the world. It nurtured Rome into existence, and was practiced in America before Columbus discovered the New World, and yet the people of the United States east of the Mississippi river know but little about it - and care less. The Moors introduced irrigation into Spain, and the Spaniards imported an imperfect system of irrigation into Mexico, Texas, California, etc. The Valley of the Nile has yielded its fruitful abundance from irrigated lands for countless ages, and Cato wrote learnedly advocating its introduction into Italy; but the greatest achievement of modern times has been the improvement of the system of irrigation in the East Indies, by the British Government of India. Irrigation in the East Indies antedates all history; the Great Mogul gave it a grand impetus during the magnificence of his reign. When the British Government (after the Sepoy mutiny) took over the control of more than two hundred and fifty millions of subjects in India, the first duty of Statesmanship was to provide labor and food for the people, and this has been accomplished by the extension of a system of irrigating canals unequalled in the world. Famine in India is rendered impossible, as long as the Himalayas give their melted snows to fructify the Indian valleys. The Ganges Canal, with its branches, is three thousand five hundred miles long. Among other duties in the service of the Government of the United States, it was a pleasure, nearly twenty years ago, to investigate and report upon the system of irrigation throughout Asia; and in this service I learned much in Japan, China, India, Persia, Arabia and Egypt; and subsequently observed much on the subject in Italy and Spain. In California as early as 1850, it gratified a youthful curiosity to follow the irrigating ditches which those primitive people had made, and subsequently the grand irrigating canals in Arizona and Northern Mexico excited a livley interest in a lost and perished race, who have left little or no other evidence of their existence upon earth.
