EXPLANATION. Find the number of feet in the left-hand 

 column of the table ; then the price at the top of the page, 

 and trace the line and column until they meet, and you will 

 find the amount in dollars and cents. 



EXAMPLE. If a load of wood contains 98 feet, at two dol- 

 lars and a half per cord first find the amount of 96 feet, 

 which is $1.88; and then add the value of 2 feet (4 cents), 

 making $1.92. So of all similar examples. 



Should the price per cord exceed the amount in the pre- 

 ceding table, the price of the parts may be found by adding 

 or doubling, as per example, for $3.50 double $1.75 ; for 

 $3.75 add $2.00 and $1.75 ; for $4.00 double $2.00 ; for 

 $5.00 double $2.50, &c.
