What reading level is Gold, Sport, And Coffee Planting in Mysore book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The supplies, vegetables, fruit, etc. , come from Bangalore three times a week, each mine keeping a'Supply boy' (servant), who goes in from Kolar Road (our railway station, seven miles from the mines), and returns the following day. We get muttonand beef from the local butcher, and also good bread from the bakery onthe field. Our butter comes from Bangalore, and from there we obtain, peas, potatoes, French beans, tomatoes, cauliflowers, vegetable marrow, and lettuces, and also fruit, such as ap...ples, peaches, grapes, plantains, custard apples, melons, and sometimes pine-apples. Servants on the wholeare good. Most of them come from Madras. Wages are much higher on the goldfields than in Bangalore--head butlers, 16 rupees; ayahs, 12 to 14 rupees;chokras, 10 to 11 rupees; cooks, 11 to 14 rupees; and gardeners, 10 to 16rupees a month. Many of them leave domestic service and take work in themines, where they get higher wages very often. " As the elevation of Kolar is about 2, 700 feet above sea level, the climateis for many months of the year extremely agreeable, and it would, so faras my experience goes, be difficult to find a more exhilarating and moreexquisitely-tempered atmosphere than that of Kolar in the month ofJanuary--at least such was my conclusion when I stayed with my friends atthe field last January.
