To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But .while the olive will subsist on many different soils or prosper in several, it is not to be concluded that it may be condemned to bare impoverished ground. It must be remembered that the latitude must largely guide one in selecting the kind of soil for an olive orchard. In Southern Spain the mean summer tem- perature is as high as eighty-two degrees. There they hold red soil in very low estimation, preferring the light colored or white, considering the red soil attracts too much heat and r...equires too much irrigation. In Central Spain the light red soil with a porous tendency to carry off the frequent rains is preferred, while the white is entirely condemned. Still further north the dark porous soils are exclusively used. The calcareous soils through their action on the natural and artificial fertilizers quickly put into circu- lation the elements of nutrition of the olive and so promote its growth ; but for this very reason it is necessary that the tree should be frequently manured in order to obtain an annual product.
