What reading level is How We Are Sheltered; a Geographical Reader book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


This block is carefully tipped over on to a heavy board, and the wooden box taken out. This leaves a hole in the stone as large as the box.
ARTIFICIAL STONE 141 In order that the stone may dry slowly, it is put under a shed, or covered with straw or cloth, and sprinkled frequently for about a week.
It is then allowed to dry in the sunshine for several days.
Frequently the blocks of artificial stone are rough on one side, thus resembling natural stone that has been chipped. This effect is produc
...ed by placing on the bottom of the mold a form like that desired. The material, being pressed in on top of this, takes the proper im- pression.
Besides the ordinary building blocks, much ornamental building stone is produced. These ornamental pieces are often used on the fronts of brick buildings. The ornamental work is first drawn, and the drawings then carved in wood. You will be interested in knowing that the carving is done in just the reverse order to that in which it will appear in the stone.
