Framed Print of New method of pasture irrigation, 1873. Creator: H. Crane
New method of pasture irrigation, Stoke Park, near Slough, 1873. ;Mr. Edward John Coleman has devoted some forty acres of his park to a trial of the new irrigation with artificial showers, invented by Mr. Isaac Brown, of the British River Irrigation Company...A 12-horse power steam-engine...draws water from the ornamental lake, and waters the whole area with jets of artificial rain, squirted from small perforations in lead pipes, which are laid down in parallel lines sixteen yards apart...Six acres are watered every night...Our Illustration shows the irrigating apparatus at work combined with the arrangements for pasturing sheep in an economical manner. The sheep are confined in a narrow space between two movable rows of hurdles placed across the width of the meadow, so that they may put out their heads through and eat of the fresh grass...The hurdles are shifted four times a day, moving one yard each time; and the ground behind them is then irrigated, to make the grass grow very soon again. It is expected by the advocates of this improved mode of consumption that it will fatten sheep on a tenth part of the area of grass-land hitherto required for the same number...The meat-consumers of the kingdom will wish the enterprise every success'. From Illustrated London News, 1873. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
