1. It is^t eery easy matter to find the
Dumber of cubic feet m any erib or box,
iqaare at tb? corner*. Multiply the
length by tb^ breadth (In f*et) for the
number of equart feet on the floor, and
[his product by- the depth, for the required"
number of oobic ftct in the box
or room. Tbus if a- foot be 12 feet long
by "6 wide, if contain# 12 m 6?72
iquare feet on tbe floor, and if 5 feet
Jeep, it contama 72 m 5?360 cubic
peeL ' - >
2. To find tbe number of bueXele is
ilso easy. A cubic foot contains 1728
subic inches, and a bushel about 2160
accurately 2160.42) inches. A cubic
foot is therefore 1728-2160?4-5 or I
8-10 of a bushel. To reduce cubic feet
to bushels, multiply tbe number of cu
bic feet by 8, and eut off 1 decimal figure.
In 360 cubic feet there are 360 m .8?
288.0 Or 288 bushels. A wine gallon
contains 291 cubic inobes. . A cubic
foot therefore contains about 7? and a
bushel about OJ wine gallons.
3. Corn is usually put up on the cob
or in the shuck, while it is sold by the
bushel or barrel of chelled corn. The]
proportion of shelled corn to corn on tbe
cob is nearly unifocal, but compared
with ?orn in the shuck it raries considerably
? depending on first, the size of
the ears ; second, the way it is shucked,
and third, the way it is packed or trodden
in. One bushel of shelled corn ie
equal to two bushels of corn on tbe cob ;
to about 3 bushels of corn in elip shuck,
(say 2h'io 8j() and Gs about 4 of corn
in fullehuck, (say 4 to 4^.)
4. If a crib of corn on the cob is 12
feet long. 10 wide, and 8 deep, it will
bold as follows: . ^
12 Length in* ftct.
10 , Width.
120 Square Teet on floor.
8 Depth.
900 Cubic feet.
8 ? 8 10 Multiplier for bushel*.
768.0 (The right hend figure cut off,
number of hiohels of corn on
the cob?768.
2)708 "On the cob.
884 Number of bushel* of shelled
corn.
8)768 Bushels, if in tlip shuck,
25C Bushels of shelled corn.
4)708 Bushels, if in full or whole
shuek.
102 Bushels of "shelled corn.
5)384 Bushels of shelled corn.
70.4 5 Barrels of shelled corn.
The above example gives the methods
in fall of solving each of tlie problems
as to contents of a crib. Other rules
will be given, which abbreviate the pro
cess. - It is necessary, also, to explain
some practical difficulties; If the corn
be not level in the crib, the depth not
being uniform, it must either be redaced
to a level, or else averaged. TLia may
be done with tolerable accuracy by
measuring where, after careful observetion,
it ia thought to be of average depth.
For greater accuracy measure in aoum.
ber of different places, and divide the
sum by the number of measurements.
If found at Ave places to be respectively
4,5, 6,0, 10 feet, add these numbers
together, make 34 feet, and divide by
the number of measurements, 5, and the
average depth will be 34 5?0 4-6 feet.
[Where corn is Mowed in the roof, it
it reaches to (be comb of the house, it is
easy to find, the contents. Consider
half the height of the comb above the
plate to be the average depth. If the
house be 10 feet'loog, 8 feet wide, and
the comb be 6 feel above the plate,
10x8?80 feat?number of square feet
on floor. - Multiply this by naif of 6
feet. i. e., 8. 80x3?240 oobic feet.
If the:com doea not reach the comb,
then half the depth of the eorn, above
the plate, is not quite enough. The
fraction expressing the average depth is
more difficult to find, but jt may be
found thus:
Add tbe width of the corn at the bettorn
to its width; at the top aod half ol
this wiild>e the numerator. The width
at the bottom is the denominator of the
fraciion. . Thus, if the roof be feet
wide at the plate, and at'the top when
the corn gives ont it is 4 feat wide, add
8 and 4, making 12. Owe-half of rfaie
(0) 18 the numerator, and (be width at
bottom (8) the denominator, and so 8-8
of the actual depth would be the ever
age depth. - 4-' , .? '
