What reading level is The Smoke Nuisance book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
While one of these little chim- neys may not attract much attention from the smoke which it emits, they are responsible, in the aggregate, for a very great part of the total defilement. It has been proved that the combustion in the domestic fire is apt to be far less complete than in the case of industrial or loco- motive fires, for the reason that the consumption is usually very sluggish and a considerable amount of tarry matter exudes and is carried off as soot, whereas in the other fire the ...temperature is high enough to insure relatively com- plete combustion. Many municipal ordinances establish- ing penalties for the emission of black smoke expressly exempt the domestic chimney, and wisely so, for the reason that no remedy for this condition of smokiness has been presented, and many householders cannot afford to purchase the high-priced smokeless fuels; but this much should be clearly understood, that the domestic fire largely influences the general condition, due to the great number of small contributions, and for the same reason it should be understood that every encouragement should be offered the housekeeper to use a smokeless fuel, if possible.
