To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some form of protection must usually be provided against wave action on the inside. Rough stone laid in place, known as riprap, is commonly used, and timber is also employed for this purpose. Embankments. — Earth tanks and artificial reservoirs are usually constructed entirely in embankment. Many artificial reservoirs, built of earth, are at present in use in irrigation, some of which are supplied by windmills, while otl^ers derive their supply from pumped water or artesian wells. The reservoir...s generally are of small size, though a few of considerable capacity have been built for artesian weUs. As a rule they are quite successful, although in some instances where the soil is unfavorable and the construction poor, diffi- culty has been experienced in making them hold water. A common method of construction which is frequently adopted for reservoir banks, is to plow down to clay under the bank of the reservoir, to make a water-tight joint, and to tamp the bank thoroughly during construction by letting the teams make the circle of the reservoir bank after dumping their load.
