What reading level is Petroleum Its Development And Uses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
, F. R. S. , and Mr. Boverton Redwood, F. I. C. , F. C. S. , after investigating the causes of lamp accidents. " The circular states that the wick should be enclosed in a thin sheet of metal tube open at the bottom, which should reach almost to the bottom of the reservoir. That the oil reservoirs should be made of metal without any opening other than that into which the upper part of the lamp is screwed, and that every lamp should have a proper extinguishing apparatus. If these suggestions were... universally carried out lamp accidents would be of rare occurrence. But, as Mr. Alfred Spencer pointed out in his evidence before the Committee of the House of Commons, the London County Council may make suggestions, but has no power to enforce them. It must be added that a great number of the accidents attributed to petroleum are caused by misuse and careless- ness. Among the former is the very reprehensible practice of pouring petroleum oil on the coals in a grate when lighting a fire, in order to make it burn up quicker.
