What reading level is The Soils of the Pecos Valley New Mexico book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The water of the Northern Canal is a mixture of the Berendos and Spring rivers, together with the waste, drainage, and seepage water from the Roswell district. The character of the Northern Canal water is therefore not the best. It carries on an average about 200 parts of soluble matter per 100, 000, of which about 115 parts are resoluble after evaporation and there- fore likely to accumulate in solution. Thus we see that the water introduced into the soil contains one-tenth of 1 per cent of so...luble matter. Since few plants can successfully grow with their roots in contact with a solution of more than 1 per cent concentration, it requires only a concentration to one-tenth to bring the soil moisture to the maximum limit allowable. Proper precautions must be taken, therefore, to avoid excessive evaporation from the surface of the soil. The soils at Hagerman are of corresponding types to the Roswell area, with the addition of one new type gypsum soil, or ' ' yeso " as it is termed by the native Mexicans.
