What reading level is Walks And Talks of An American Farmer in England volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There seems to be no doubt at all that land to which inch bones were applied ten years ago are yet much the better for it. They are usually applied in April, and the ground is lightly pastured, or perhaps not at all until the following year. The effect, the farmers say, is not merely to make the growth stronger, but to make it sweeter ; the cattle will even eat the weeds which before they would not taste of. However, in poor land especially, it is found to encourage the growth of the more valua...ble grasses more than that of the weeds, so that the latter are crowded out, and a clean, thick, close turf is formed. If the ground has been drained, all these improvements are much accelerated and increased. Upon newly laid down lands, however, the effect is not so great ; it is especially on old pastures (from which the extraction of the phosphates in the milk has been going on for ages sometimes, uninterruptedly) that the improve ment is most magical. The productive value of such lands is very frequently known to have been doubled by the first dressing of bones.
