Rule for Measuring Corn cribs

Multiply the length and width of the Glib, and
thsn multiply the product. by the height
then multiply the product by 1 ,72s, and then you
have the number of square inches in the crib
DIVIDE that sum by 2,150, the number of square
inches in bushel and you have the number of
bushels in the cob. Divide that sum by 2, and
you have the number of shelled. Divide that by 5.
and you have the number ofbarrels Thus: take a
crib 10 feet square and multiply 10 by 1O-1OO;
ed by l,72s gives 1,72s,OOO square inches: that
divided by 2.l5O gives 500 bushels and fraction
in the ear. Divide by (2) two and you have 40l
bushels shelled corn. Divided by (5) five, and
you have so bushels and fraction
