What reading level is Simple Measures By Which the Recurrence of Famines May Be Prevented And the Pr book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It will probably be suggested here, that a recurrence to potatoe food on emergency may so habituate the lower orders to it, that once in the use of it they will not return to their former and more expensive diet.
Was this to be the consequence, I agree with Mr. Malthus that it would be a serious evil ; potatoes once become an established food, lse all the advantages they possess as a substitute, and in this case I should be sorry to encourage an increase of potatoe culture.
Fortunately an atten...tion to the nature and habits of this root, will shew that an occasional use of it cannot grow insensibly into habit.
The quality of the potatoe varies with periods; it becomes a much worse food in summer, and necessarily dearer as this root incurs expence in keep- ing; for if not turned often, and picked, it will vegetate and spoil. Should therefore the consumer porsrvere in this food through June and July, he eats a worse sort of provisions ;, t a higher price.
The new potatoe, it is true, comes in then ; but the farmer will not dig his potatoes in August, before his crop has nearly attained its full quantity, and also while it is so perishable a commodity as to keep but for a very few dajs.
