What reading level is Cuban Cane Sugar a Sketch of the Industry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Given favorable growing conditions, such as the cleared jungle of Cuba or Java, it re- quires a minimum of labor. Sugar beets, on the other hand, constitute a typical temperate zone crop. They require rich soil, and especially good drainage conditions. If there is not abundant rainfall, the beets must be irrigated. Unless the soil is very rich in natural fertilizing ingredients, it becomes necessary to apply commercial fertilizer gener- ously. The beet is a crop which re- quires constant cultiv...ation during the early part of the growing season and is subject to a number of ene- mies and diseases. It has been noted that as the beet crop has increased, its enemies have become more wide- spread and destructive each year. We see, thus, that the beet requires land which is worth from forty to two-hundred dollars per acre for [47] Cuban Cane Sugar other purposes, whereas, cane flour- ishes best in the tropics with land, which, assuming that the Mahogany and Cedar pays the cost of clearing, costs from six to fifteen dollars per acre and is good for little else.
