AN INTERESTING IRRIGATION 

 PROJECT. 



Mr. TluHxlorf Slrawii. of DeLand, 

 Florida, has contracted for what will 

 bv a very iini(|ue and at the same tiino 

 very efflciont irrinatloii plant on what 

 he calls his Island Grove at UeLeon 

 SprinRs. 



The distribution of water in this 

 plant is to be through a new type of 

 sprinkler known as the Turbo-Irripa- 

 tor. which when placed on stand pipes 

 100 feet distant from each other and 

 extending up through trees, will thor- 

 oughly and evenly distribute water in 

 the form of fine rain over the entire 

 surface. 



The standpipes, which on account of 

 the trees being very large, average 

 over 20 feet in height, will be sup- 

 plied with water under pressure by 

 an underground pipe system forced 

 direct by a two-stage centrifugal pump 

 operated by an oil engine situated at 

 a nearby lake. 



The large area covered by these 

 sprinklers, which are manufactured oy 

 J. I'. Campbell of Jacksonville, Florida, 

 greatly reduces the cost of irrigation, 

 especially for orchard use. anrl as the 

 cost of a modern system of irrigation 

 of this kind has heretofore been al- 

 most prohibitive, many of the leading 

 growers of Florida are awaiting the 

 completion and testing out of this plant 

 with great interest.
