      The water is coming from our well . When the pump isn't running the   
   water in the barrel will be static , any silt will naturally settle to   
   the bottom . When it is running the water will be swirling and the silt   
   will be moving to the outside and down . With the outlet pipe in the   
   middle of the barrel I expect to see a marked reduction of plugged   
   emitters . I'm thinking the barrel will need to be kept full to not have   
   those disturbances in the flow patterns ... or if I let the level drop   
   between watering I'll need to let the pump run long enough to establish   
   the rotation and fill the barrel before I start to draw water . More new   
   ground for me .
