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

J From the point of view of the small holder the case against ownership is overwhelming. He is always handi- capped by want of capital, and he prefers to invest such capital as he possesses in stock, farming capital, etc. , which yield a good return, rather than in land which will pay him only 2| per cent, or 3 per cent. Virtually, however much capital he has, he prefers to rent, a larger acreage rather than to purchase land, for the purchase of land ties him to one place and renders it difficu...lt for him to increase his holding. A successful tenant can move to a larger farm, but the chance that a small owner can buy more land adjacent to his own whenever he wants it is remote.

f The case against ownership is stated very fully and clearly by Edwin Pratt in his book The Transition in Agriculture, Chap. 18 and seq. , which was published in 1900, just before the question became a party one with the Act of 1907.
