PLANT YOUNG TREES 
We cannot too strongly recommend our customers to procure young trees, espe- 
cially for orchard planting. They cost less, they can be taken up with more perfect 
roots, are much more likely to live, and will become sooner established in a new loca- 
tion. They can also be more readily trained to any desired shape. The largest and 
most successful planters invariably select young, thrifty trees.

RULE — Multiply the distance in feet between the rows by the distance the plants 
are apart in the rows, and the product will be the number of square feet, for each plant 
or hill, which, divided into the number of square feet in an acre (43,560) will give thf 
number of plants or trees to the acre.
