What reading level is Soils of the Eastern United States And Their Use Xii the Carrington Loam book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Originally covered chiefly by pine forest, the vegetable litter accumulated in relatively small quantities in this type and was found at shallow depths within the surface soil of the type. With the cutting of the timber and the occupation of the land for agricultural purposes, chiefly for the production of cotton year after year, the organic mat- ter was rapidly destroyed and over thousands of acres of the type the pale, gray, sandy soil is apparently exhausted of its humus.
As this exhaustion ...progressed crop yields deteriorated, and in many instances only three or four crops of cotton wfere produced before the land was thrown out and other areas planted to cotton or to corn. Even under somewhat better conditions of agricultural occupation the organic matter content in the surface soil has fre- quently been exhausted within 8 or 10 years of the first occupation of the land. Throughout practically the entire area where the type occurs little or no effort has been made toward the restora- tion of this organic matter, although its incorporation in the surface THE ORANGEBURG FINE SAND.
