To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The above grove promising so much at the end of the second year's growth, now appears to be rapidly degenerating, and if left for fifteen or twenty years, will not in all probability repay the expense and labor of planting. From the vigorous grove on the farm of Mr. John J. Denny, planted without previous preparation of the soil, and with no cul- tivation or care since planting, we judge that hill land with an abundance of lime in the soil, is best adapted to the growing of locust. Judging from... the appearance of this grove and of many others of volunteer growth locust should do well on all the hill land of southeastern Indiana and probably of all portions of the State where sweet clover spreads and thrives. The locust, as almost all other legumes, seems to thrive best in soils with an abundance of lime and free from acid. We note also that the injury caused by the borer is much greater in the less vigorous trees growing in poorer, acid soils. If the tree is vigorous, growing rapidly, the borer will not be of great injury, but will completely destroy groves not favorably located as to soil and drainage.
