What reading level is Outlines of Practical Hygiene book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Wherever subsoil drains are laid, coarse gravel should be thrown in along the course of these drains ; for gravel favors drainage, and the outflow is thereby in part at least provided for whenever any accident happens to the drain.
To prevent water from the soil rising into the lower part of the house, the cellar should have concrete floors and walls overlaid with asphalt or otherwise made water-tight. It is also desirable that this layer be tight enough to keep out gases that may chance to ent...er from leaky pipes. The foundation walls keep dryer when by the use of cement on the outside or by other means they are made impermeable to moisture. In loamy or moist soils a ditch-like depres- sion, between the water-tight foundation wall and the ground beyond, serves to catch what moisture would ooze out of the ground and come against the wall. This ditch should have a drain at its lowest part, and it may need to be covered in, if water from the surface be liable to flow into it.
Bushes add to the moisture of the soil, and, when near the house-wall, they should be removed if the soil be only slightly permeable to water.
