It has been thoroughly tested for two years and its users speak in enthusiastic praise of its work. The more rough and more difficult your land is to irrigate the more the advantages of this irrigating device appear. It consists of a canvas hose with apertures along one side, spaced about 20 inches apart, from which the water escapes into the furrows. These apertures are fitted with a regulating device to regulate or stop the flow of water. The hose is tapering in form to conform to the gradually diminishing volume of water. The standard size is 75 feet long and 6 inches in diameter at large end, and tapers to IV2 inches diameter at small end. which is open.

This will require that your ditch banks be thrown, up a little higher than they generally are at present. The hose is easily and quickly set in operation by connecting it with a pipe set into the ditch bank. The end of pipe in the ditch has a cylindrical screen fitted over it to prevent the entrance of leaves, etc. The hose is light and when one strip of land is irrigated it is easily carried to the next strip.
