Excerpt from Opportunities Out-of-Doors
It is the purpose of the writer to try to tell beginners how to get a start in some of the employments out-of-doors. These particular occupations - construction, forestry, lumbering, tree surgery, rural motor express, botanical drug collecting and cultivation, and landscape gardening - have been selected because I believe there are great opportunities in them for health, contentment, and material well-being.
It is surprising, too, how little has been written about them with any idea of helping a beginner. Take any of the vocations mentioned in the ensuing chapters and practically everything pertaining to them on bookshelves is either historical or technical.
