What reading level is Vermont Public Documents book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Thus, after seven sowings and the liberal use of every fertilizing element, Mr. Lawes was compelled to see a com- plete failure of the attempt to keep his land in clover. He relates that in the rotations customarily practiced in his neighborhood, a good yield of clover can be relied upon once in six or eight years.
The land was what they call " clover-sick." " Clover- sick," and finally clover-dead !
Mr. Lawes made another interesting trial on a piece of originally similar ground, which had, ho
...wever, been used as a kitchen-garden probably for two or three centuries. It was sown to clover early in 1854, and from this one sowing Digiti zed by Google ROTATION OF OBOFS. 409 the plant grew well, without further manure, for six years, and yielded in that time fourteen cuttings, at the rate of twenty-six tons of hay per acre for the six years, or four and one-third tons yearly.
In discussing the causes of clover sickness, Mr. Lawes suggested that the assumption that clover requires a portion of food to be supplied by the soil in the form of certain or- ganic compounds — vegetable matters or humus, such as are contained in garden earth and come from the yard manure-^ would perhaps explain why the crop failed on ordinary soil, but should succeed in a garden which had been heavily ma- nured perhaps for centuries.
