To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Not one-half of the forests are cleared off as they ought to be. The clearing is not made by the destructive burning of the trees, whereby the fertile soil is converted into ashes and carried away by'the winds. Some stocks or stumps may be thus burned so as to put them almost entirely out of the way. As labor is very high, so sometimes only the bushes and undergrowth are removed ; but the large trees are still left standing. But around these a score is cut, and they thus dry up within the first... year, and thus soon fall down ; so that one may often see fields filled with dry trees, and a heavy crop of grain growing under them.^ 3. The Implements of Agriculture. The implements of agriculture are the plow and the harrow. The plow is so made that from the share two pieces ascend with a handle upon each, about an ell and a half apart from each other. It is put together with screws ; light, and easy to handle. The plowman holds each handle with one hand, and throws up the field into high " lands," plowing first on the one side and then on the other side of a " land," so that the earth is thrown up high.
