To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Wood is a combination of cellulose, long hairlike fibers; a small amount of sugar; and lignin, a resin or natural glue that holds the fibers of cellulose together. Cellulose serves as the base for plastics, rayon, paper, and many other products. Lignin is the source of vanillin in vanilla extract, which is replacing the natural product since that supply was cut off by the war. Since it is a good adhesive, lignin is used to bind laminated and plywoods for the con- struction of airplanes. It also... serves as a tanning agent for leather and produces an excellent, low-cost plastic. The millions of gallons of sulphite liquors which are dumped into streams and lakes by our paper mills contain valu- able lignin and sugar from wood. Therefore the plant at Thorold, Ontario, which uses the waste sulphite liquor, is a great step forward. It was made possible by the work of Dr. Donald F. Othmer and his associates at the Brooklyn (New York) Polytechnic Institute and uses a process far superior to that of the Nazis, the pioneers in this work.
