Excerpt from Irrigation in Hawaii
The precipitation of atmospheric moisture is very uneven and irreg ular over the surface of the earth. There are zones that are marked by annual deluges, and there are vast areas upon which rain rarely falls. These rainless areas are not confined to conditions peculiar to Specific latitudes, but are found in the tropical regions of India and Africa, over the wide plateaus of North America, and in other locali ties having widely varying climatic conditions.
