What reading level is The Complete Home book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THE CELLAR FLOOR In country places, where there is no sewage to contaminate the soil, a hard, well-beaten dirt floor is not particularly objectionable, except that it can- not well be cleaned. Boards raised from the ground by small blocks nailed to the under side, and leading to bins, cupboards, and furnace room, should be laid across it to prevent the tracking of dirt to the upper rooms, and these little walks must be swept and kept free from dirt and dust. If the cellar is floored with boards..., the flooring should be raised sufficiently to allow free circulation of air beneath it ; but the only strictly sanitary floor- ing is of concrete, six inches thick, covered from wall to wall with Portland or other good cement.
Cellars, being below the street, and therefore re- ceiving some of the surface drainage, are prone to dampness, and are easily contaminated by leak- age from drains and sewers, and other filth com- municated to them through the soil. These condi- 220 THE COMrLKTE HOME tions arc larf!:ely couDteracted by the concrete and cement llooiint^, whicli also hum tbo entrance of ants and other vermin.
