What reading level is A Year in the New Hebrides, Loyalty Islands, And New Caledonia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In January or February the seed is sown ; and it is so distributed that when the plants have grown up they will be in rows, having sufficient space between them to allow the gatherer to pass up and down. The seeds quickly germinate, and the plant grows rapidly. When it is about two feet high it is topped, to present it growing out of reach of the cotton picker, and also to render the plant more sturdy and the lower branches more vigorous.
In four or five months after sowing the seed, the first ...crop is ready for gathering; and the plant bears regularlyuntil November or thereabouts, during which time the picking goes on. When the plant has ceased to bear for the season, it is cut down to the roots, next year's crop coming from the fresh shoots which spring up. Every three or four years the plants are renewed.
After the cotton has been gathered by natives in baskets, it is spread out in the sun to dry, and is then taken to the gin house, where this useful little machine separates the floss from the seed ; after which the former is put up in bales and ex- ported, while the latter is culled to get seed for sowing, or is exported as a material furnishing oil of some value.
