What reading level is Manual of Practical Orchardwork At the Cape book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
E. , cutting back half the last year's growth over the whole of the tree. As the average is from one to two feet we shall take off from 6 to 12 inches. It need not be done with precise measurement ; indeed the strongest shoots should be shortened back most in order to bring up the others, and any long projecting limbs that destroy the balance of the head are cut back to uniform length. This brings the tree into a well rounded shape. By reducing the young wood to one half, we apparently reduce t...he coming crop one half, so far as number of fruits is concerned. But the remaining half, receiving all the sus- tenance the tree has to give, come to double the size. The young spurs which start abundantly from every part of the tree keep it well supplied with bearing wood for next year, and the greater size and luxuriance cf the foliage, as a necessary consequence, produce larger and more highly flavoured fruit. Kemember, in shortening back, to cut to a wood-bud for the finish of each shoot. Else you may have fruit coming out at the very tip, unsheltered by leaves and certain to drop early or come to nothing.
