What reading level is The Industrial Resources of Ireland book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Its general composition may, therefore, be understood, although as the proportions of its elements con- tinually fluctuate, a single analysis of it could have but little authority. The silicious sand usually amounts to from 30 to 60 per cent. ; the shells to from 20 to 50, and, beside carbo- nate, jdeld some phosphate of lime and of magnesia ; there is generally from 3 to 6 per cent, of animal matter, which yields nitrogen by its decomposition, and, finally, from 5 to 10 per cent, of water, whi...ch holds in solution common salt, and the other ingredients of sea water. This manure furnishes actu- ally thus a great variety of substances to the soil, and although its principal action must be analogous to liming, yet the far- mers are certainly right in preferring it to ordinary lime. Another variety of sea sand used as manm-e is the coral sand, which is found but in certain localities, as Bantry Bay, and some of the inlets of Connemara. It consists of silicious sand, intermixed not merely with ordinary sea shells, but with fragments of a material usually termed coral, but which natu- ralists now consider to be of vegetable origin.
