TO ASCEETAIN THE NUMBEE OF CABBAGES, TEEES, <b 



THAT MAY BE PLANTED IS A QUANTITY OF GEOUND 



AT ANY GIVEN DISTANCE, 



RULE. Reduce the quantity of land to be planted to 

 the denomination of the given distance, then divide the 

 quantity thus reduced by the square of the given distance. 



Ex. How many trees will be required to plant 2 ac. 

 2 ro. 20 po. at 2 feet distant ?

29586 i the number required. 



To find the Number of Trees from the Table : Look 

 in the right hand column for the quantity of land, and 

 at the top of one or other of the columns on the right 

 hand of it for the distance; then under that, and op- 

 posite to the quantity of land, you will find the number of 

 trees. 



N.B. When the quantity to be planted consists of several 

 denominations, the number of trees found in the Table will 

 sometimes differ a little from that found by the above rule ; this 

 is on account of only taking one decimal place.
