What reading level is The Business Hen (A New Brood) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Mapes does not claim a heavy yield in Winter, yet with his systetra of handling his hens averages a profit of over $1 each per year. This is the way the work is done.
"My son and partner proposes to take full charge of the poultry and pigs, while I care for the cows and horses. This will give us a chance to form some opinion of how much poultry it would require to furnish a full day's work for a man, under better and more ideal conditions. He was up about five o'clock, and had things well under... way when I reached the barn. While breakfast was being prepared he proceeded first to mix his morning batch of feed for the hens. There are 1,482 of them, and he dumps four baskets of balanced ration into the box on the old buckboard. 1 his weighs 35 pounds to the basket, making 140 pounds in all; 100 quarts of skim-milk are then poured on it, and the whole well mixed with a shovel. This takes about 15 minutes. I have found the follow- ing mixture to give very satisfactory results both where fowls have free range and when confined in yards with nothing else whatever in the way of food, not even green food of any kind.
