What reading level is Guide to Irrigation Practice On the Pacific Coast book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Sage brush, which on large areas of new land is the only kind of vegetation found, is most easily and cheaply removed by drag- ging with a rail, raking and burning. The cost of clearing by this method is about $2. 50 per acre. One advantage of the method is that the rail takes off the high places, and aids materially in the smoothing that is to follow. Sage brush is easily drowned by irrigation, and is then readily raked without railing.
THE SHUART GRADER, NO. I FIGURE 5 The grading or smoothin
...g of the surface depends on the method of irrigation to be used. In any case, the obvious humps must be scraped off and the holes filled up to some extent. The Fresno or Stockton scraper is the most commonly used implement for the purpose. These are made in three sizes, for two, three or four horses. The retail price in July, 1907, at Fresno, California, was: For two-horse, 3*/2-foot cut, $20; for three-horse, 4-foot cut, $21, and for the four-horse size, cutting 5 feet, $22. 50.
