To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Early in the present century its great injuries were officially reported by several State authorities to the Patent Office at Washington, long before the Bureau of Agriculture was estab- lished, and the multiplicity of such cases doubtless primarily led to the establishment of that Bureau. It has ever since continued to do more or less dam- age to almost every cotton crop planted. The Cotton Worm proceeds from its parent moth, the female of which deposits its eggs in large num- bers, from six t...o eight hundred, on the underside of the leaves of the plant, and are so small in size as to be difficult of detection. According to some au- thorities they hatch within three days. The worms at first feed upon the tender part of the plant, but in a few days more w ill devour any part. When the worms have completed their growth, which is in about four weeks, they fold over the edge of a leaf which they line with a silken fibre, and soon change to chrysalids ; after remaining in this state for from 14 to 20 days, according to the weather, the moth emerges, in which state they are harmless to vege- tation except through their egg producing capacity, and from thence out their existence is very short.
