What reading level is Practical Modes of Destroying the Cotton Worm book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

All of these the writer has used, and found that a small part flour will answer every purpose; — saj five pounds to twenty of plaster and one of the poison, thoroughly incorporated. And also all plaster {gypsum) has proved entirely effectual. Lime is objectionable on account of its impalpable dust rising and floating in the air or wind, in the manipulation and applis cation of it, and which is unpleasant and in- jurious to the lungs. Ashes is also a coarse 'material and dusty in a wind. And we ...must say that the land plaster is the best material, on the score of economy and convenience, being cheap, heavy and free of dust in the handling, and very well secures the poison on the rough surface of the cotton leaves.
Then it is generally worth its cost as a fertil- izer on the land. And, on the whole, we must recommend this for general use in our cotton plantations, — say twenty-five to thirty pounds plaster to one of the poison, well in- corporated, by mixing in a box or barrel, say a spoonful to the twenty-five times that quantity of the plaster, and so on till enough for a given area of cotton — say an acre — be mixed.
