equilateral. 



RULE. Multiply the length in inches by the breadth in 

 inches, and that again by the height in inches, and divide 

 the product by 2748 (the number of cubic inches in a 

 heaped bushel), and the quotient will be the number of 

 1 leaped bushels of ears. Take two-thirds of the quotient 

 for the number of bushels of shelled corn. 



EXAMPLE. Required the number of bushels of shelled 

 corn contained in a crib of ears, 15 feet long by 5 feet 

 wide and 10 feet high ? 



SOLUTION. 180 in., length, x60 in., width, x!20 in.,
