To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
(1) Prior to 1914 the fuel used in the sugar factories was coal, but during the war the price rose to such heights that its use became economically unsound. Consequently it was replaced by trash, i. E. The leaves and refuse from the fields. . This trash, which contains millions of living insects, is conveyed loose either by trucks or other means of transport from all parts of the sugar growing area to the factories. Some of this is unavoidably dropped or blown off and the 4 whole track becomes ...strewn with leaves from which the insects crawl on to the adjacent standing cane, thereby steadily distributing and increasing the infection. There is at least four months between the time the first consignment of trash is conveyed to the factory and the last field harvested, so that insects from the first consignment may have up to four months in which to increase the infection on already infected cane. Further, as the price of sugar rose during the war, the area under cultivation increased and the cultivation became worse and worse : poor quality " sets " were planted and no trouble was taken to remove the leaf sheaths from the " sets " before planting.
