An apparatus for irrigating the earth includes a portable vehicle having a hose reel connected to a supply of water under pressure. An elongated hose is carried by the reel and the end of the hose is connected to a travelling carriage having a water gun and such carriage initially is moved away from the vehicle by an external force after which water passing through the apparatus drives a turbine which rotates the reel and coils the hose thereon while pulling the carriage toward the vehicle at a selected speed so that a large area of the earth is watered automatically.
