What reading level is With Feet to the Earth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Strip this " butter and eggs" from the 9 130 With Feet to the Earth fields and something would surely be lack- ing in our early summer landscape.
Autumn is the time when the ragweed becomes actually coarse, and then because it has not learned to grow old gracefully. It ages like a vagrant and grows seedy and out at elbows, instead of venerable. There are grace and pathos in trees and vines that glow with October color, then, having spent their last energy on beauty, drop their leaves and sink t...o sleep ; but plants win contumely that merely dry and break and wither, that splash the fields with rust, even when their summer aspect and demeanor have been exemplary. Nobody has sung of the ragweed, nobody has described it, except botanically, nobody has painted it, pressed it, put it into a hot-house, tried to reform it, or sat in the shade of it and tried to think large things about it. All-seeing Thoreau does not mention it, and the phy- sicians have not put it into the materia medica. As the old woman in the country does not dry or stew it with other "yarbs, " I surmise that she once boiled a quantity into a tea and made some suffering patient Some Humbugs of Science 131 drink a pint of it for a cold, or measles, or rheumatiz, thereby killing him and saving him from ensuing doses of goldthread, tansy, bloodroot, boneset, thoroughwort, and other draughts that farmer lads remember as bitter, blighting, burning, and abomi- nable.
