What reading level is The Painted Hickory Borer book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In fact, it seems to prefer the smaller trees and branches to the large trunks, for the galleries are always more numerous in such material. In all cases the most severe injury is due to the pupal cells which penetrate the larger trunks and branches to a depth of from one to two inches, while in smaller branches they extend to the heart- wood. Hickory is particularly injured by this borer, for the sapwood, which until recently has been considered the only part of the tree suitable for the manuf...acture of vehicles, agricultural implements, and various other commodities, is so riddled by the larval galleries that the manufacturer's profit is considerably reduced, resulting in a higher price for the finished product. Years ago, when the hop industry consumed large numbers of hickory poles, the wood for this purpose was often seriously damaged, especially if it was left standing in the woods during the danger season.
