What reading level is Canadian Economics; Being Papers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The upland farmers not unnaturally copy the process followed by these favoured dyke-land owners, and try to work their land as grass farms. But the hay fed on the farm will not maintain the fertility of the hay fields : the grain is weak and poor, a prey to weevil or other enemies ; roots, for lack of manure to raise them, are but rarely grown ; the farmer and the farm both get poorer instead of richer ; and the upland districts, through no fault of their own, get a bad name. A regular rotation... is necessary for the maintenance of fertility on this class of farm. This implies stock, implements and plenty of labour, which the average run of farmer is unable to furnish. Men of means who go into farming note the absence of prosperity without examining the cause, and, if buyers of land, buy in the dyke-land districts. Thus capital, the principal want, does not find its way to the upland farms. Technical training is also urgently required — not merely the knowledge obtained from books, but instruction in theory com- bined with its adaptation in practice — a want which can only be met by the establishment of an agricultural school associated with a model farm, such as the Provincial Institution at Guelph in Ontario; where working farmers are taught science, educated men to labour with their hands, while the general pupil learns both branches.
