HOW TO PROCURE TREES. 35 



The following table will serve as a general 

 guide : 



Standard Apples 33 to 40 feet apart 



Standard Apples, close pruned ... 25 "" 



Dwarfs on Doucain stock .... 10 "" 



Dwarfs on Paradise stock .... 8 " " 



Standard Pears 15 to 25 " " 



Dwarfs on Quince 10 to 12 " " 



Standard Cherries 20 " " 



Dwarfs and Morellos 10 to 15 " " 



Peaches and Plums 12 to 15 " " 



Quinces and Grapes 6 to 8 " " 



Currants and Gooseberries .... 4 " " 



Raspberries in rows four feet apart and three 

 feet in the rows. 



Blackberries three feet in the rows, but a sec- 

 ond row should be eight feet distant. 



As an acre contains 43,560 square feet, it 

 follows that it will accommodate about the num- 

 ber of trees shown in the table here given, de- 

 pending somewhat upon the shape of the land.
