What reading level is The Animal Industry of Argentina book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Clydesdales brought very poor prices, and were a rather "log}"" lot, most of them, though, of fairly good breeding. Perhaps the fact that grain is not often fed to horses there may have had some- thing to do with this appearance of many horses. The first prize Clydesdales, in groups of 6 colts, sold for $150 each, the second group for $195, and the third for $225. As with the bulls in the fine-stock show, the opinions of buyers do not always agree with those of the judges who award the priz...es. Other Clydesdales, pure and of mixed blood, sold as low as $35 and $36, and many went at $55 to $100, though some also commanded from $120 to $180. A great many camp- bred mares and ordinary geldings found slow buyers at $40 to $60, and even less than the lower figure. Some sold for only $15 each. These horses were not worth more than they brought, for. An ordinary horse may be bought any day for $30, or less than $14 United States money. The "cocheros" (drivers of ordinary carriages for hire) in Buenos Aires, who abuse their horses shamefully, find it cheaper to buy a new horse than to feed or take decent care of the poor old animals they often are seen driving.
