What reading level is The Essentials of Soil Fertility book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the limestone could be made as fine as flour, so that every particle were available in the soil, two tons of the lime- stone would correct somewhat more acidity than one ton of lime, but, as we find the pulverized limestone oa the market, it is safe to say that it is not fine enough to permit two tons to be as effective as one ton of the pulverized lime. The so-called "new process" lime on the market is a lime which has been slaked by steam, and therefore has had its weight increased without... any addition of ability to correct acidity. One ton of this *'new-process" lime cannot correct as much soil acidity as one ton of pulverized lime. On the other hand, the ease of application is a great consideration. "New-pro- cess" lime is easy to handle, and on that account rtiay be worth as much to the farmer as the pulverized lime which is unslaked and must be drilled into the ground before it slakes, unless one is willing to be troubled by burst packages.
Pulverized limestone can be handled with compara- 25 THE ESSENTIALS OF SOIL FERTILITY tive ease; but the buyer must remember that he is paying for the transportation of a large amount of "U'aste material in the pulverized limestone, a^: nearly one-half of it is worthless so far as correction of acidity is concerned.
