Capacity of Corn Cribs 



(Height 10 Feet.) 



The length is found in top line, the width in left-hand column — the height being taken at 10 ft. Thus 

 a crib 25 ft. long, T'o ft. wide and 10 ft. high, will hold 800 bushels of ear corn, reckoning 2 '4 cubic feet 

 to hold a bushel. If not 10 ft. high, multiply by the given height and cut off the right-hand figure. If 

 above crib were only 7 ft. high it would hold 800 x 7 equals 560 (0 bu., etc.). The same space will hold 

 1 4-5 times as much grain as ear corn. Thus a crib that holds 800 bushels of ear corn, will hold 800 

 X 1 4-5 equals 1440 bushels of grain.
