together it is 392 feet the space that each tree 

 will occupy. This will go in 43,560 (the number 

 of square feet in an acre), 1 1 1 times, which is the 

 required number. Should the trees be set in equal 

 squares, square the distance, as at 20 feet apart each 

 tree will occupy 400 square feet, or 108 to the acre. 

 If trees are planted in nursery rows 6 inches 

 apart, and the rows 4 feet, each tree will cover 

 2 feet, or 21,780 to the acre.
