But water to a plant is just like water to a boiler; it's just water until it's converted in- to steam. As water, it's just water. As steam, it's power ready to work for you. Water is just as surely a plant's horse power, after it has dis- solved the fertilizers in the soil so the roots can absorb them. Unless they are so dissolved not a single mouthful can the plant get. Water it is that makes it pos- sible tor the plant foods to be carried freely to every part of the plant. Water it is that brings the nitrogen of the air down into the soil. Water it is that loosens the soil up when delivered gently, the Skinner System way, .so that the air can get down into the soil and freely unlock the nutritive elements. Water it is that, evaporating through the leaves, carries off the plant's waste or poison. Water it is that keeps the pores open so the plant can breathe. Water, and only water, is it of which practically 85% of all plants actually are made. Skimp that water and you see how vital the injury is. Give it all it needs, so it has no struggle to go in search for it; and all its strength goes into growth and blooms. That's why the Skinner System of Irrigation doubles and triples a crop. It's why it more than pays for itself the first season. Give us the length and width of the piece of ground you want to irrigate, and we will send you some interesting facts.
