Abstract/Contents: | "Water leaking from a faucet in a stream the size of a common pin wastes about 150 gallons a day, engineers of the United States Department of Agriculture have found. Even a leak of only one drop a second causes a waste of about 4 gallons a day. Considering the number of hose connections or other outlets that are to be found on areas in turf, a great deal of water is frequently wasted in the course of one season. All outlets should be checked and hose repaired to prevent unnecessary waste." |
