Irrigation Tour of Interest to Polk County Farmers
Two
Two Days are
Spent on Farms
And Equipment
Dallas A series of Irrigation
nestings wen held on various Polk
tounty (arm Tuesday and Wednea
day, conducted by W. C. Leth. Polk
Bounty agent, and Arthur a. Xing,
Irrigation apeciallit. from Oregon
But college, with the advanced
harvest aeaaon and the fact that
many wen beginning grain harvest
this week, the attendance was con'
sldered a much as could be ex
pec ted.
The meetings began at the Paul
Freeman farm. At this farm
new Irrigation project has been de
veloped this season using a centrl
fugal pump with a 10-horse power
motor pumping the water from the
Yamhill river which borders the
farm. Approximately 10,000 feet of
concrete pipe an used to raise the
water to a high point on the farm
from which between 100 and 190
acres can be Irrigated by the flood
method. '
New seedlngs of ladino and red
clover have been made this spring
which are now making rapid growth
and which will supply considerable
pasture and at least one cutting of
hay this season.
The Job of land fitting on the
Freeman farm is especially note
worthy a It Is one of the beat lev
elllng and trip bordering jobs that
has been done in this county, states
Leth.
The next stop was at the T. J.
Werth farm Tuesday afternoon,
when a nigh pressure sprinkler sys
tem has been in operation for a
couple of years. The Yamhill river
Is the source of water hen and a
jive-norse power eiecino motor is
used to supply the power for irriga
tion. Potatoes, alfalfa, ladino clo
ver and other crops an being Irri
gated to ad rentage on the Werth
farm.
This Installation represents a spe
cial feature in that all of the elec
tricity used comes through the
minimum rate because it is used in
connection with the regular house
. and farm Installation. A portable
pump and motor set-up is an in
teresting feature of this project. .
The Wednesday meetings began
at the Mike Branch farm also
known as the Taylor farm about
hi mile south of Pedee on the Luck
lamut river. On this particular
farm Branch Irrigates red clover
from which he la planning to take
a seed crop. He waa in the Droceis
of Irrigating this particular crop

sprinklers can be operated at once
with this outfit and It is used by
Branch in Irrigating about 100 acres
. of potatoes along with other crops.
A very handy trailer for trans
porting the quick coupling pipe Is
used and la very interesting to see.
At Helmlck park a stop of special
' interest to small fruit growers Is
the Roy Miller farm at which both
high pressure and low pressure
: sprinklers were observed In opera
tion. The low pressure sprinklers
wen seen for the first time by many
as they an about the latest new
development In Irrigation, being
used this season for the first time.
This sprinkler doea not revolve as
do other sprinklers and operates on
leu than half the amount of pres
sure. A unique featun of this
sprinkler Is that It doea not require
each sprinkler line to be off-set
from the previous one to get uni
form coverage.
Miller's berry plantings of boysen-
benies, blackberries and others as
well as some truck crops, is quite
a revelation to small fruit growers
as this Is one of the most attrac
tive plantings of small fruits to be
found In the Wlllsmette valley.
This Irrigation project was start
ed last yeer and the growth and
yield of fruit attest to the success
of irrigation.
The last farm where irrigators
assembled was that of Nelson Ander
son, south of Buena Vista, and ac
cording to Information available.
this Is without question the project
employing the highest lilt or any
In Polk county. Water Is delivered
at a point approximately 300 feet
above the level of the Willamette
by Anderson by means of an auto
mobile engine which burns stove
oil. and a large centrifugal pump.
A new seeding of ladino clover
now being pastured for the first
time, is the first use mede of irrt
garlon water by Anderson of the 100
or more acres that he eventually
plans to have Included.
Many problems were brought out
at these meetings and for the most
part those who attended learned
that Irrigation Is practical now un
der conditions that even five years
ago were not so. That Irrigation is
profitable on a large variety of
crops also Is brought out at these
meetings. '
Many who attended were of the
opinion that Irrigation Installations
costing as much as 150 or more per
acre can be very profitable Invest'
