Making Money On the Farm I— Drainage By C. V. GREGORY. Agricultural Division, Iowa State Cofcge Copyright 1909. b, American Press J
C V. GREGORY. ! < Author of "Home Course In Modern Agriculture" ' |
IN order to make money on the farm o It la first necessary to get the land t In shape to respond liberally to 1 the work put upon It. One of the f first and most Important steps In get- i t ting It In such condition Is to drain It ; o 1 thoroughly. There are two general I types of drains— tile drains and open <3 \ ditches. " i About the only place where an open f | ditch can be used to advantage Is to [ I draining large sections of the country t where natural drainage Is Insufficient t to carry of! the surface water or to provide an outlet for tile. Such a ditch Is really an artificial river. Its ; t large size prevents It from becoming t easily clogged. It should be made i deep enougb to provide a good outlet 1 for tile systems from the farms trlb- 1 utary to It. The sides should have a t slope of at least one to one— run back i one foot for every foot of rise. 1 The Use of Tile. ' The major portion of the drainage, 1 however, must be done with tile. In starting out to tile a farm It pays to go at It systematically. Few farmers are able to tile tbelr whole farms at once, but by planning the whole system before any work Is done and then putting In as many rods as possible each year the farm will In the end be thoroughly drained at much less expense I than If the work was gone at In a hit i or miss fashion. . | The proposed lines of tile should be ! laid off by a good engineer. He has , ! the tools and ability to do It properly, 3 1 and a little money spent In this way ' | will be made up many times over In 1 j the added efficiency of the system. : The first money that Is spent for tile - ; should be put where it will yield the ?l quickest returns. On almost every 1 farm there are sloughs and draws that , are too wet to work long after the rest of the field Is dry. The loss Is not so ' much from the land that is taken up j by these sloughs, tbougb that often amounts to considerable, as to Jbc n trouble and loss of time In working 1 around them. A line of tile can be rut •- 1 up to 6ueh a place to take out tbe wae ! ter and laterals put In later to drair a] the surrounding ground more tborj ougbly. | Often after the 6longb Is drained ' there will be a strip of corn over the I n tile that will be the best In tbe field, i j while out a little farther the corn will | ' V. — (-n.mil m.i.l i-aIIaIT TG. WtlltVl (if and yellow. The j-
j this strip of corn Is a very good indl- h cation of the distance apart tbat the ! c drains should be placed. The ground f over the tile Is warmer and drier In t the spring than the other, and conse I % ) quently the corn gets a better star' ; t j tbe summer, when there Is s I water in tbe tile, air is flowing ! e : down through them. This pulls alt | p i down through the soil, making root j c ' growth more rapid and the plants j \ ! vigorous. A deep root system , c i means a large feeding ground and conaequently a larger yield. For these | | reasons all low, flat lands should be L : thoroughly underlaid with rows ol j , , tile, even tbougb the surface water ; t j never 6tands on them. A map showing | ( i tbe exact location of the drains 6bould j ( j be kept so tbat they can be readily j t i found when It Is desired to add later- ( j als to tbe system. , Planning the Drainage 8ystem. , I In planning a drainage system there ; 1 are three especially important consld- | e rations — tbe depth and size of tbe - tile and tbe distance apart of thf | drains. More tile drains are put In toe \ shallow thaD too deep. In most soils ; four feet Is about tbe rigbt depth. In 1
no. 1— pbotbctxxo Tina outlet.
hardpan tbe -tile may have to be laid , shallower or the, water will never get 1 to them. Deep tile mean a d^p layer of mellow soil. w^lch^aglAas a sponge , to hold capillary water for the crops. The deeper the tile the farther their effect will be felt on either side. > The size of the tile depends upon the I fall and the amount of land to be L drained. Tbe engineer who lays out the drain will usually be able to compute the size required. In estimating the number of acres to tie drained by a given line of tile all the land from which surface water flows toward It should be included, as well as all land drained by lateral" which empty into It. The depth of the drains and the character of the soli are the chief factors that determine the distance apart to ~ *1 place the drains. Tile four feeW^ej)
on a sandy soil will draw seventy-five on either side, while In clay soil effect will not be felt a third as ] As already stated, tbe width of i the strip' of good corn or other grain a drain Is a good Indication of the | "pulling power" of the drain. Where a i \ drainage system Is being put In a little . i at a time the laterals can be put In 75 to 200 feet apart at first, de- > pending on tbe soil, and others put in later If experience shows them to be necessary. The Outlet. One of the most Important parts of | j ;,the drainage system Is the outlet If | ; the drain empties Into a ditch or ' stream a atone bulwark should be ] 1 built up to keep the end tile from )>ewashed away. Tbe drain should ( enter the stream above tbe level of the • water If possible. When It enters be- | the force of the current Is checked. and If the water Is carrying much silt some of it will be deposited In the
no. n— foob wax to tax Tins.
tile. It Is a good plan to use sewer pipe for a few feet back from the out- : let, as It Is not so easily -displaced by freezing. Many drains are built with an out1 let In a box at the side of the road or ? next to a neighbor's fence. Such an . j outlet Is not very satisfactory, but 1 ' sometimes It Is the best that can be | f nrnrlllwl Thp hflT sllOUld be Well provided. be .
to keep out rubbish. Tbe mouth J of the tile In this as well as In other of outlets should be covered to 1 keep out small animals during dry j weather. The bottom of the box should j ; at least a foot below the tile. The , | silt that settles here should be clean- ! ed out occasionally. A much better | plan than the use of a tile box Is to co j operate with the rond authorities or j j with the neighbors and extend the lln I i of tile to some permanent outlet. Laying the Tile. I It rarely pays a farmer to lay his I ' own tile, but he should keep close ! watch of tbe men whom he hires to do j [ the work. A little carelessness In lay- ^ I the tile may make tbe drainage . j system practically worthless. If at , I place the tile dips an Inch below j tbe grade line, tbat Inch will fill up | with silt, and the capacity of the whole I system will be reduced that much. I old saying that a chain Is no stronger than Its weakest link applies with especial force to a tile drain. No can lay tile to grade accurately eye. even If there Is water running In the ditch at the time. Remember that it Is your money that is paying for the drain and that it Is your privilege to have It put In as you want It The only way to get the tile laid exactly to grade Is to use targets. When an engineer lays out a line of the tile he sets a row of grade stakes, each j one marked with the depth the ditch Is I to be at tljat point When the ditch Is down nearly to the required point targets are set* up at these grade stakes. A target consists of an upright stick on each side of the ditch with a crossbar clamped to It These crossbare should fie adjusted so that they • are level and Just seven feet above the grade Una For Instance, If the cut marked on the grade stake Is four feet the crossbar should be three feet •above the stake. After a number of ip ;s :b ie r
three targets have been set a string Is stretched across the tops of them. a measuring stick seven feet long will Just reach from the string to the correct grade line. With one man to hold the measuring stick and soother to scrape out the bottom of tbe ditch. It can be dug to grade very accurately. Of course both digging tbe ditch and. laying the tile should begin at the outlet. Don't let the men stand on the bank and lay the tUe with a book. giv» them get down Into the ditch i «»wi put them In by hand, standing on I those already laid to bold them In - place. By handling each tile any i cracked or Imperfect ones can be dls i covered and thrown out After tbe tile are laid a Uttle dirt should be scraped from tbe side of the ditch to ; bold them In place. As soon as the t whole line Is In no time should be lost , to covering tbe ditch.
