What reading level is Small Fruits : Their Propagation And Cultivation, Including the Grape .. book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cranberry culture, when conducted intelligently, is no longer a speculative business. In many localities it has become per- manent and profitable. A good meadow, in a bearing condition, is readily worth $1,000 per acre. A bushel to a square rod is not an uncommon yield, and a single rod has been reported as yielding more than six bushels, or at the rate of over nine hun- dred bushels to an acre. One hundred bushels per acre is called a good average crop. But there will be many failures in grow-... ing cranberries, as with all other fruits.
PICKING THE FRUIT.
The fruit was formerly gathered by rakes, but is now mostly picked by hand. The work is done mainly by women and chil- dren, at a cost of about fifty cents per bushel. When the rows are visible, each picker is confined strictly to his row ; but if the bed has become one solid mat, plots are staked off containing 90 only a few square rods, one of which is assigned to each per- son employed.
COLORING AND CLEANING.
Of course all fruit will be unfit for packing as it comes from the field, as there will be more or less imperfect berries, and also grass and leaves, that must be removed.
