Chandler When perforated plastic tubing was planned for drainage studies it appeared that it would be equal- ly good for irrigation. 'I'he merits of perflated plastic tubing for drainage has been written and photographed for CRANBERRIES (issue of June 1955, page 7-9) by Steve Brickman. It was an ex- cellent job of photography and tne only part of drainage to be re- ported is data mdicatmg the dis- tances drained. This will vary from bog to bog aepending on depth of the tube and size of sand particles. The beneficial effect of drainage was published in the Farm Journal. Drainage between two rows of apple trees was expressed by a crop as great as th:.t on the adjacent five undr^iined rows. Such increases in yield have not been reported yet for CRAN- BERRIES but they can be expect- ed. The greatest benefit will prob- ably come from a drier bog surface and better keeping quality of fruit. This year studies of the move- ment of irrigation water and the water table have been made at the State Bog. These experiments show that plastic tubing is very beneficial in getting the water in- to the bog when growers are using the ditch method for irrigation. When the ditch water is raised above the plastic tubing water moves into the section. Ditch ir- rigation alone is only efl'ective for a few feet from the e
