What reading level is Agriculture, Practical And Scientific book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The means possible for counteracting its attacks are to consoli- date the soil so as to prevent the wireworm working easily through it, either by Cambridge rolling or trampling by sheep, or to disturb the insect by deep cultivation, so as to ex- pose it to the attacks of birds, and to the sun or frost. It is also well to remove from the soil anything which might serve as shelter, in which the insect might hibernate, such as cabbage stalks, etc., or to apply something injurious to the insect, su...ch as caustic or fresh gas-lime, the latter being put on the land, of course, when no crop is growing. Rape or mustard cake is also useful, and often a stimulating manure is of service by strengthening the plant.
The wheat midge (Cecydomyia tritici) is a small brownish insect which often appears in immense numbers about the end of June in cornfields and pastures. It flies chiefly in the evening, hovering about the wheat plant and laying its eggs in the flower. The maggot produced is of a bright orange colour and lives in the floret, feeding on the soft "WHEAT 197 young grain.
