What reading level is Farm Woodlands And the War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To-day charcoal is but a by-product of the de- structive distillation of hardwoods, and was not as essential to the wari as the acetone and alcohol produced by the process. Acetone is used in the manufacture of propellant explosives for all calibers of guns, and is an important ma- terial for use on the wing covers of airplanes, and since from 75 to 100 tons of wood are required to produce 1 ton of acetone, enormous quantities of wood were needed for this purpose alone. After the entrance of th...e United States into the war, it became necessary to construct several large dis- tillation plants to produce acetone for war purposes. Wood alcohol is also used to a large extent in the manufacture of explosives.
WOOD FOR FUEL.
Among the numerous results of the entry of the United States into the war was the upsetting of the fuel situation.
The production of coal not only fell off at the mines, but the transportation facilities of the country were so over- burdened that the whole national life was embarrassed dur- ing the extremely cold winter of 1917-18.
