What reading level is The Jewish National Fund book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


On an estate of the Pale. Stine Land Development Company, at Kin- nereth, being land leased from the National Fund, there is a girls' train- ing farm, where, under the guidance of an expert lady principal, girls are instructed in poultry rearing, vegetable growing, and other branches of farm work.
35 (3) Afforestation (The Tree Fund).
One of the most important agricultural tasks is the afforestation of the treeless districts of Palestine. In the course of centuries a great many plantations, esp
...ecially in the mountainous districts of Judaea, have been devastated, partly by wars, partly through removal (as by the Venetians) for commercial purposes, but partly also through the vandalism of the rural population, which uses both trunk and roots for fuel. In ancient times Palestine was thickly planted with fruit trees, a fact repeatedly mentioned in the Bible, and of which the traces may be observed even to-day. The removal of the trees causes serious damage : where the moisture, a precious possession in the dry East, is not retained or properly distributed, marshes and sand wastes are formed in abundance, and the fertile earth-crust on the treeless heights of rocks is swept away by the rain.
