To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hundreds of car-loads of the seedlingsare not even picked, and ninety per cent of the eighteen thousandcar-loads which make the season's orange crop are navel oranges. Overforty-five millions of dollars are now invested in the growing andmarketing of this remarkable fruit.
At Riverside, the home of the orange, the two original Washingtonnavel trees still stand. Mr. Tibbets guarded them for years, had themfenced with high latticework, and seldom allowed any one to touchthem. He refused ten thous...and dollars for them, since for months hesold hundreds of dollars' worth of buds from these parent trees. Thesetwo trees and their large family have caused thousands of people tocome to the state, and have built up Southern California wonderfully.
THE LEMON For many years people who use that sour but necessary fruit, thelemon, thought that only the little yellow ones which came from thefar-away island of Sicily were good. The men who import foreign fruitsalways said so; and in spite of the fact that the larger Californialemon was more acid, of as good flavor, smooth skinned, and golden, people believed the Mediterranean groves produced the best.
