Irrigation for a Plantation. 



Mr. H. .\. \':m Hcnnami, inaiiager of 

 a large plantation near Havana, has es- 

 tablished a large irrigation plant on the 

 property in an endeavor to demonstrate 

 what irrigation will accomplish in the 

 way of intense cultivation. 



An excellent well, .^oo feet decj). has 

 been bored, from which there is an in- 

 exhaustible flow of water. The pumping 

 apparatus is on the system of com- 

 pressed air, the water being raised by a 

 siphon method, and pumped into a large 

 reservoir. This reservoir has a capacity 



of i.ooo.ooo gallons of water. The water 

 from this reservoir is distributed over the 

 land by means of a centrifugal i)ump, and 

 the entire contents in one day if neces- 

 sary. .\n alcohol engine of twenty-four 

 horse-power capacity is utilized for 

 power. 



Mr. \'an Hermann, who was for some 

 time connected with the Cuban Agri- 

 cultural Experiment Station at Santiago 

 de las \'egas, has been experimenting 

 with improved grades of mangoes, 

 aguacates, and other tropical fruits, and 

 a large acreage will be set out in these 

 kinds of frui;.
