　　In some countries in which there is very little rain at any time, the farmers have to irrigate their fields．Irrigation is easy enough if there is a great river near the crops, and if there is plenty of water in it．Canals carry the river water to the fields when necessary．In some seasons there may be too much water in the river, and the water may flood all the land near it．At other times the river water may not be enough for all the farmers, and then it will be difficult to irrigate the fields．

　　To prevent these difficulties, a dam may be built across the river．This will store water for dry seasons, and in wet seasons it will prevent the flooding of the land．A great lake will, no doubt, be formed behind the dam, and this may mean that houses and fields will be covered with water．Most people will accept that and will be ready to move to other places．Then the country can have the right amount of water at all times; more crops will be grown, there will be more food for everyone, and there will be no more floods．

　　We cannot use sea water for irrigation; the salt will not allow the crops to grow．Fresh water is always needed, and it is very difficult and costly to make fresh water from sea water．This is done in a few countries, but the fresh water is for drinking．There is not enough at present for irrigation．Perhaps a scientist will one day invent a cheaper way of producing fresh water from the sea．If fresh water could be made cheaply, we could grow more food．
