Text Appearing Before Image:
the canethrives best, depend entirely on irrigation, the water beingbrought to the plantations by ditches or pumped from wells.On the windward side of the island of Hawaii, where the rain-fall is abundant, irrigation is unnecessary except during verydry periods. In cultivating, the ground is turned with steam ploughs todepths up to twenty-four inches. These ploughs are operated bypowerful engines that work in pairs, one on each side of afield, usually from one thousand to fifteen hundred feet apart.One engine pulls a gang-plough across the field and the otherdraws it back. By this method the rich soil is thoroughly loos-ened and a wonderful vegetable growth results. Ordinarily inCalifornia the farmer ploughs only from four to six inches deep. After the lands are ploughed and harrowed and all the weedsturned under, double mould-board ploughs are used to make thefurrows in which the seed is planted. The furrows are not likethose made for planting potatoes, but are about five feet apart
