What reading level is The Cultivation of the Turbot book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
1908—55 866 BULLETIN OK THE BUREAU OF FISHERIES.
At the end of a few weeks of captivity our prisoners began to feed. To them were distributed once a week large pieces of plaice at the rate of about half a fish the size of the hand to each turbot. This ration may seem scant, but it was purposely limited, we deeming that too great an abundance of food is not favor- able to the functions of reproduction. It is probably to excess of feeding that must be attributed the failure of attempts to make th...e turbot spawn in captivity. In order to keep the basins free of putrefying food substances we put with our turbots a conger eel and a dogfish long since acclimated to life in cap- tivity. These fishes, well known for their voracity, were employed as scavengers, in which capacity they did good service. Our turbots, in captivity since Feb- ruary, began to spawn in July.
We do not know yet whether individuals that have spawned in captivity and survived one season will spawn the following year. We will not know this until in July next.
