What reading level is The Fertility of the Land: a Summary Sketch of the Relationship of Farm-Practice to the Maintaining And Increasing of the Productivity of the Soil book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Average computed value of excrements of sheep.

Average percentage of fertilizing elements recovered in all experiments.
Nitrogen,... ^ Phos. acid, i Potash, i Sheep 62 .73 .66 Calves 5G .39 .63 Pigs 80 .73 .80 The preceding tables show that the total values and the percentages of fertilizing constituents vary, as might be expected. The percentage recovered with swine is larger than with sheep and calves. This would seem to indicate that swine digest and assimi- late a larger amount of the carbohydrates and a less amount, taken together, of the other constituents, than either sheep or calves do. The amount of fer- tilizing elements recovered is dependent on so many conditions, as the power to assimilate food, the age and species, and the kind and quantity of surplus products produced by the animal, that only a general average can be reached, which must be amended as experiments throw more light on the subject.
