What reading level is Orange Culture in California book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Solid ice formed from one- fourth to three-fourths of an inch thick. The salvation of the trees seemed to depend on protection by shade and the absence of wind.
Second It is with pleasure that I answer number two, hav- ing orange trees in my own garden, and having noticed those of my neighbors. Only a few leaves, and those most exposed, show a blight. My few trees are from two to six years old. They are all green and apparently uninjured. A few days ago I saw trees with golden yellow fruit, wit...h only a few leaves injured.
Third The trees I speak of are planted in small valleys, sheltered in a measure by surrounding hills. Some trees must be from twelve to sixteen years old.
Fourth Some trees have been protected by a thin cloth, others received no protection. The past frost has been the severest in thirty years, the extent of my observations but I do say I have great faith in these foot-hills for the future of oranges, lemons and limes. A range of twenty-five miles from the plains toward the Sierra, and commonly known as the "Foot-hills, " will, owing to the natural protection and facilities for irrigation, ultimately be more successful than the plains, over which the wind has a strong, cutting sweep that will de- stroy young and tender trees.
