OP 14: LBS., IN SMITHFIELD STONES OP 8 LBS., IN CWTS., AND IN 

 SCORES, SINKING THE OFFALS. 



IN the left-hand column of the Table is placed the weight of 

 the live animal in Imperial stones ; and when killed, the weight 

 of the four quarters is found opposite each live weight in Imperial 

 stones, Smithfield stones, cwts., and scores. 



EXAMPLE. The weight of a live ox has been ascertained to be 

 133 Imperial stones; how much will the four quarters weigh? 



Having found the weight, 133 stones, in the left-hand column, 

 opposite thereto stands 74 stones lljlbs. Imperial, 130 stones 

 7 Ibs. Smithfield, 9 cwt. 1 qr. 11 J Ibs., and 52 scores 7J Ibs., 

 the weight of the four quarters in each of these denominations. 



If it were desired to know the weight in Glasgow Trone stones 

 of 22 J Imperial ounces to the pound, or 22 J Imperial pounds to 

 the stone, multiply the weight, found as above, by 14, and divide 

 the product by 22J, or, on account of the fraction, multiply by 

 28, and divide by 45.

 Table XXXIII., showing the live and dead weight of sheep, are 

 so similar to this Table that they will require no explanation.
