70 Villa Gardens 



I have already given the cost of bricks. The 

 estimate for a path as shown in Example i, of 

 brick and Macadam, would be approximately : — 



I assume that the gardener will himself 

 supply the muscle and brains to do the work, 

 which is simple and interesting, and may be done 

 by instalments as time and inclination permit. 



To gravel a similar path would cost ^i, to 

 which must be added the cost of edging tiles 

 (about 13s. per hundred), so that in point of 

 expense there is not much to choose between 

 the two systems. 



In some parts of the country opportunities 

 occur of obtaining stone waste, and where such 

 material is available a picturesque, uncommon 

 and thoroughly satisfactory path may be made
