What reading level is Protection And Free Trade to Day At Home And Abroad in Field And Workshop book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is nothing the State can do which will be of more benefit to the farmer. Protective duties, as I have shown, do this by building up manufactures giving employment to labor, reducing the price of manufactured goods to the farmer the Western no less than the Eastern farmer.
Thirty years ago, it has been computed, when we de- pended upon foreign countries for our manufactured goods, ninety per cent of the commodities then used were made abroad. The policy of protection has changed all this, ...and now not ten per cent of our manufactured goods come from other countries. Home competition has brought down, as we have already seen, the price of everything to the consumer, and to-day most of the manufactured com- modities used by our farmers are as cheap in the United States as they are in England ; are now being sold in our stores at as low prices as they can be purchased for in the shops of England. Here is the testimony of Mr. Dudley, who has lived abroad as an official representative of the United States for more than twelve years : " This applies to the cotton goods the farmer uses for domestic purposes, whether as clothing for himself and his family or that which he uses for household purposes ; to all descriptions of household furniture, to the clock that hangs on the wall, to the watch that he carries in his pocket, to the boots and shoes he wears, to the hat that covers his head, to all descriptions of wooden-ware, to carriages, wag- ons, carts, barrows, harness, and all agricultural machi- nery ; to tools and implements, including reapers, mowers, threshers, rakes, rollers, ploughs, harrows, cultivators, drills, forks, hoes, shovels, spades, and every other description of agricultural tools, implements, and machines.
