What reading level is Fundamentals of Farming And Farm Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
large part of the valuable food materials in the manure is in soluble form, so that if the manure is left in the rain these are leached out and carried away in rain-water. Some of the nitrogen is changed to ammonia and passes off to the air in the form of a gas. A large part of the other materials of the manure which are so valuable in loosening the soil and supporting soil bacteria is slowly changed by the ox\'gen of the air and lost when manure is left exposed. If the manure is allowed to bec...ome drj', these changes and this waste go on more rapidly. In tests made at the New Jersey Experiment Station manure exposed to the ■ft'eather lost over fifty per cent of its \alue in four months. At the Ohio station exposed manure when used on a crop was found to have a value of .§2.15 per ton, while the value of stable manure was $2.90. When twenty-three cents' worth of acid phosphate was added to the stable manure its fertil- izing value was .|4.S0 per ton. At Cornell 4,000 pounds of manure were exposed from April 25 to September 25, at which time it weighed only 1,730 pounds.
