What reading level is Harris On the Pig. Breeding, Rearing, Management, And Improvement book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CHAPTER XYI.
PIGGERIES AND PIG PENS.
In selecting a site for a pig pen, the first requisite is dryness. A side hill, sloping towards the barn-yard, is a desirable location ; and if this cannot be found in a con- venient place, it is not a difiicult or expensive matter, with a dirt scraper and a span of horses, to form a basin in the barn-yard, using the dirt to make a high and dry founda- tion for the pig pens, and forming a slope towards the basin, so that the liquid from the pens will rajDidl...y drain away to the manure heap. If the soil is not dry, it must be drained with tile, or stone underdrains, at least two feet deep ; and if there is suflicient fall, four feet would be far better. These underdrains are not designed to carry off the water from the surface, but to make the soil underneath dry. Surface drainage must be attended to also ; for, as the Uquid from well-fed pigs is the most valu- able portion of the manure, it is especially important that the whole of it should either be absorbed by the straw or other bedding in the pen, or drain away to the manure heap.
