What reading level is The Home Acre book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In purveying for the home table, white rasp- berries offer the attractions of variety and beauty. In the case of Brinckle's Orange, its exquisite flavor is the chief consideration ; but this fastidi- ous foreign berrry is practically beyond the reach of the majority. There is, however, an excellent variety, the Caroline, which is almost as hardy as the Turner, and more easily grown. It would seem that Nature designed every one to have it (if 132 THE HOME ACRE. we may say it of Caroline), for no...t only does it sucker freely like the red raspberries, but the tips of the canes also bend over, take root, and form new plants. The one thing that Caroline needs is repression, the curb ; she is too intense. I am incHned to think, however, that she has had her day, even as an attendant on royalty, for a new variety, claiming the high-sounding title of Golden Queen, has mysteriously appeared. I say mysteriously, for it is difficult to account for her origin. Mr. Ezra Stokes, a fruit-grower of New Jersey, had a field of twelve acres planted with Cuthbert raspberries.
