Along the line of many Irrigation

rolling. Wbvrr thin occur in largo

bution of water can be assured which

ilarly as shown by the plan herewith,
(ha water enters tha distributing
ditches at the upper laft-hand corner,
and dividing, flows through these into
the still smaller ditches, from which
it Is turned laterally Into furrows.
Little dams or temporary obstruc
tions of earth chock its flow from point
to point.
After water flows out upon a field,
any surplus la caught by small
SIMPLE SYSTEM OF IRRIGATION,
trenches shown in the figure ai trend
ing diagonally toward the right-hand
lower corner. From thene trenches
the water can be turned upon the low
er field so that the excess or seepage
is not wasted, but is employed on the
les elevated tracts.
"-anvas dams are generally employed
In checking the waters over the field
a thev are most convenient. The fol
lowing description will enable anyone
to eontruet them, and will also ex
plain their use. The materials used in
the construction of n ennvas dam art
a piece of timber, usually a two by
four Bcantling, long enough to reach
acros the top of the ditch from bank
to bank: a small slick varying in
length accordiny to the width of the
ditch to be dammed, but no longer
, than will lie across the bottom of the
third wider than th depth of the
ditch and as lnopr 119 h width of the
ditch at the upper edfre. The canvas
is cut Into a trapezoidal shape, some
what resembling but larper than a
aection of the ditrh. The lonir edj?e of
the oanvas is fastened to the seant
ling first desoribed and the short edg-c
to the amall stick. It is well to have
a little) margin of the cauvaa below
this short stick.
The dam is placed by throwing the
cantling across tho ditch just below
the point at which it is desired to di
vert the water. The canvas rests In
the ditch, with the short stick lying
across the bottom, far enough up
stream from the location of the scant
ling to make the canvas nearly tight.
The brace is placed with one nd
against the scantling and the other
against tho short stick, thus prevent
ing the canvas from being washed
back under the scantling.
A little earth is thrown upon the
loose edges of the canvas, where it
rests against the banks and against
the bottom of the ditch, and the
water is turned in. The weight of the
water presses the canvas agninst the
banks, o that there is scarcely any
leakage. In some cases permanent
dams with head gates are placed in
the ditches, and this is often done
where ditches branch anil it is desira
ble to divert the water to one or the
other branch. V. J. Ulanchard, in
Farm and Home.
Keen-inn Ilonila In Condition.
Fred Grundy, in Farm and Fireside
tells us he has been watching "road
keeper" care for ten miles of black
earth road, and he has kept it in
good condition, not by macadamizing
it or by covering it with crushed
stone, but by providing good drain-
by tilo in most places, to take
the water oil, and by digging out
some of the worst places about 1H
inches deep and filling with broken
brick, tile, coal, cinders or whatevei
will make a firm foundation, and al
low water to drain through. Then il
the roads are rounded up to allow
the water to nm off and they get
a little attention alter every rain.
they are easily kept in good eondi
tlon. The results are much better
and the cost much less than they
were for the annual turnout of the
district to mend, or often to make
worse the roads, the job being ex
pected then to be done until the same
Maaon comes around another year.
Wood Aahe a Fertiliser.
Wood aahe give the best result on
naatura land, orchards, small fruits
and on clover. To purchase wood
aahe ia a risk, a it ia difficult to pro
cure two lots alike in composition,
while exposure to rains may cause
loss of potash by leaching. If one has
ashes it will pay to use them, as they
contain both lime and potash, bnt It
will be found better and cheaper to
purchase potash in the forms sold by
fertilizer manufacturers than to buy
shea on the market.
