Kackborth and Koy System. --The plant of Kackborth and Koy is located on Mill creek, from which it takes its water six miles northeast of Sealy, and consists of an 8-inch Morris pump and an Erie City 40-horse power engine, working against a lift of 21 feet. The soil is described as a red buckshot, with an admixture of black, 150 acres of which were irrigated during the current season of 1902. Stone System. --On east San Bernard creek James and Stephen Stone have installed an irrigation system 1 miles from Beard, with which 390 acres were irrigated in 1900, producing after the Galveston storm six sacks to the acre, commanding 3. 00 per sack; and 300 acres in 1901, yielding 3000 sacks, which also sold for 3. 00 per sack. The plant consists of one 150-horse power Westinghouse automatic compound engine, operating a No. 13 Ivens pump, having a 15-inch suction and a 13-inch discharge pipe. The estimated capacity is 7000 gallons a minute (16 second-feet), under a lift of 27 feet. The flume is 5 feet by 2 feet by 520 feet long, and delivers the water into a canal 2 miles long and 100 feet wide. The laterals are f of a mile long and 15 feet wide. The soil is light and sandy, from 1 to 1 feet deep. Wood is used for fuel, requiring 3 cords per day for the 390 acres irrigated in 1900. The experience here in 1900 but confirms the estimate of irrigators in the Beaumont section, and in Western Louisiana, that it requires fully 9 gallons a minute for each acre irrigated, or 8 second-feet for each 50 acres. In 1902, 300 acres were irrigated. Jahn System. --Just north of Beard, G. A. Jahn and associates. . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.<
