COMPLETE ORCHARD AS FIRST PLANTED, 



The outline represents a square acre. Dashed lines represent boundaries of 

 units. This plan is drawn to scale so that every tree is twenty (20) feet 

 distant from six other trees set on the corners of a hexagon. Each unit contains 

 six (6) blue and six (6) red and four (4) green. The acre contains one hundred 

 and twenty-six (126) trees. 



Let the blue represent Baldwins, the red Mclntosh and the green some early 

 maturing variety, like the Wealthy; or the poorest trees of both Baldwin and 

 McTntosh maybe set in the green circles as these are removed in the first thinning, 

 so have no permanent place in the orchard.
