What reading level is Report of the Commissioner of Agriculture On the Diseases of Cattle in the United States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The nature of this feeling is indicated by a let- ter from Mr. S. Morgan Welch, of Waverley, Missouri, to the Prairie Farmer of the 26th of September, 1868, in which he says: "Talk to a Missourian about moderation, when a drove of Texas cattle is coming, and he will call you a fool, while he coolly loads his gun, and joins his neighbors ; and they intend no scare, either. They mean to kill, do kill, and will keep killing until the drove takes the back track ; and the drovers must be careful not... to get between their cattle and the citizens either, unless they are bullet- proof. No doubt this looks a good deal like border-ruffianism to you, but it is the way we keep clear of the Texas fever ; and, my word for it, Illinois will have to do the same thing yet. Congress ought to do something in regard to this stock. Very stringent laws were passed in regard to the rinderpest, and yet it is scarcely more fatal than Texas fever, only the latter is not contagious among our native cattle. Texas stock should not be allowed to cross the 35th parallel of north latitude alive." With rare exceptions the States of Illinois and Indiana were not visited with splenic fever prior to 1868, and the great reason for this is that southern stock has been slaugh- tered in the west by butchers and packers in the winter months, and has not been purchased in large quantities by cattle dealers and graziers, to fatten on the western prairies.
