THE IRKIGATION AGE. 



Kansas 



J. L. Hibarger, tenant on the I. T. 

 Steele farm, near Wichita, Kan., has 

 installed a pumping plant to irrigate 

 the entire 160 acres. The water is 

 pumped by electricity and the plant 

 has a capacity of 18,000 gallons an 

 hour. The wells are about fifty feet 

 deep. Ninety acres of land is in al- 

 falfa and seventy acres in garden 

 truck. It will cost about $2 per acre 

 for each irrigation. 



The Pawnee County (Kan.) Irri- 

 gating Company, composed of farm- 

 ers in that county, has practically 

 completed the construction of eleven 

 miles of irrigating ditches. 



The Great Plains Co-operative Ex- 

 perimental Association met recently 

 at Hays, Kan. More than 100 experi- 

 menters in irrigation work attended.
