| Quotable quotes | "On the last golf-course I kept a record of, the mole drainage was done at one-twelfth of a penny a yard. Drainage with three-inch pipes would have cost a shilling a yard." p. 58
"One man, a horse, and the turf-cutting machine, may under favorable circumstances nick and pare an acre (4,840 square yards) of sods per day, whereas by hand a man rarely cuts more that [than] 240 square yards per day." p. 59 |
