Whenever I went to work on my uncle's farm in the summer, it took a

There might be a well or two. There used to be many wells in Europe.
But ever since Europe became crowded, they had to pump all of the
groundwater out in order to create living quarters beneath the surface
of the earth. They have very many levels which extend for a few miles
below the surface. How else do you want these people to live? It's
impossible to house them all on the surface.
