What reading level is Fertilizers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He uses four or five parts of bone to one of potash. The bone, which is ground, but not very fine, is spread in the barn cellar. The potash is put, in large pieces, in a bag, and there broken with a sledge-hammer, and put in a tight bar- rel, into which was poured boiling water, and dissolved to saturation. In handling the potash, care must be taken not to get it on the clothes or person. It is then turned on the bone, which sets up a great heat, evolving the nitrogen, to absorb which, plaster ...is used. It is allowed to remain two or three weeks, and is turned over several times, and 68 FERTILIZERS. every time covered with plaster. It is considerable trouble to reduce bones in this way, but it gives a better return for the money than buying fertilizers in the market. After the potash has acted on the bone, large pieces can be crushed in the fingers. He has used no other fertilizer than this on his strawberries, and it is equally good for grapes. He has put no animal manure on his grapes since they were set out, but either ashes or bone and potash; and this treatment has been so satisfactory that he will continue it.
