This early work contains a detailed guide on the irrigation of farms, including information on the construction of canals, irrigating meadows, drainage, dams, pumps, and much more besides. Complete with clear instructions, helpful hints, and profusely illustrated, this antiquated text contains much in the way of information still relevant today, and is a text not to be missed by the discerning farmer or collector of farming literature. The chapters of this book include: 'The Necessity for Irrigation', 'Importance of an Adequate Supply of Water', 'Amount of Water Needed for Irrigation', 'Irrigation of Gardens', 'Preparation of the Surface', 'Irrigation by Pipes and Tiles', 'Irrigation with Liquid Manure', 'Culture of Irrigated Garden Crops', 'Irrigation of Orchards and Vineyards', etcetera. This text was originally published in 1893, and is proudly republished now complete with a new introduction on farming.
