Winch is best to nsc, a nrdrnniic ram. a wind mill or a s tea'll eiiirnic? How can I 1 place my minis to sprinkle from eight. to ten acres? F. N , Ltoinorest, <ia. . Answer —This question, apparently bo simple, involves the consideration of so many conditions that we would not ' undertake to answer i? unless we had had mbre experience than is just now usual at the south. This question of irrigation requires not only to be stud ied carefully, but to be practically de veloped, before one can discuss it intel ligently. In the first place, the amount Pf water required bj* ouif ordinary ! crops, that is the amount which must —viceu up by their roots, the only way In which the plants can appro priate it to properly nourish thorn from the time the seds sprout until the crops are matured, is equal to a depth Of 1 foot over the entire soil covered by each orop. This is the average require ment, on a medium soil, well cultivated. If tho crop is very highly manured, a still greater amount is needed. By ref erence to No. 82 in the present number, 1 you will observe that there are many | important points to be considered, be sides tho mere collecting of the neces sary amount of water. We are just in the A B G’s of the the science of irriga tion, which belongs to the highest de velopment of agriculture, and can only be successfully operated on the most valuable lauds and under the direction of the most skillful management. One thing is oar tain, however that if wo would keep up with the progress of the Age, we must learn to utilize our au nual rainfall, more than ample for the needs of our crops, but most abundant At tho seasou that they need it least. By collecting oven a part of this amount, and keeping it ready for use iu casa cf emergency, we become prac tically iudepeudeuc of tho seasons, aud •re secured against the unfortunate effects of drouth. But, to do this eco nomically and successfully, requires i technical knowledge aud skill, aud mtist depend on a more certain founda tion thau a tew directions from an ag ricultural journal.
