Floripedia: Indian River Region Sugar-cane grows astonishingly, attaining a height of twelve to sixteen feet, single stalks yielding more than a gallon of juice, which, being boiled down, makes over a quart of thick sirup, and produces five or six hundred gallons of sirup per acre. The natural growth of the hammock is the sturdy live-oak, measuring from two to six feet in diameter; the stately hickory, two to three feet in diameter, and twenty to forty feet to the first limbs; the red elm, mulberry, wahoo, cabbage-palmetto, with an undergrowth of hack-bush, torch-wood, marl-bush and vines. It requires three years from transplanting to commence bearing, then pays hundreds of dollars per acre, and soon runs to thousands, there having been four to six thousand dollars per acre realized in one season. fcit.coedu.usf.edu /FLORIDA/docs/i/indriv.htm   (1010 words)

It was in use in England at least as early as the eighth century, and by the end of the ninth century it was generally understood to be the area of a field one furlong (40 rods or 10 chains) long by 4 rods (or 1 chain) wide. www.unc.edu /~rowlett/units/dictA.html   (35 words)

Accord is near -- new lot size OK expected soon However, if a developer opts for half-acre lots with one quarter acre per lot set aside as green space, the frontage requirement would remain at 100 feet. Builders could put in a subdivision with half-acre lots as long as a quarter acre was set aside as "green space" for each lot. Several housing developers, as well as their countywide association, opposed the original lot-size increase from a half-acre to three quarters of an acre. www.sunnews.com /news/2000/1102/SLOT.htm   (97 words)

Rod (unit) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A rod is a unit of length, equal to 5.5 yards or 16.5 feet (5.0292 metres in SI units). The length is equal to the standardized length of the ox-goad used by medieval English ploughmen; fields were measured in acres which were one chain (four rods) by one furlong (in England, ten chains). Because the furlong was "One Plough's Furrow Long" and a furrow was the length a plough team was to be driven without resting, the length of the furlong and the acre vary regionally, nominally due to differing soil types. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Pole_(unit_of_length)   (97 words)

JS Online: District's 5-acre prairie spared from destruction Village of Pewaukee - School district officials have dropped a proposal to build soccer fields on a 5-acre prairie that students created in the early 1990s and have nurtured for eight years. The plants - some of them several feet tall - are used as buffers between the river and properties such as parking lots, where polluted storm water runs into the lake, Shong said. Dozens of students and parents had protested the proposal because it would have destroyed a living laboratory used by science students to study plants and animals native to southeast Wisconsin. www.jsonline.com /news/wauk/jun01/soccer06060501a.asp?format=print   (678 words)

Otorohanga, Kiwiana Town, Quarter Acre Module A typical quarter-acre section had a street frontage of 66 feet ( 20.1m) - corresponding to the standard surveyor's measuring "chain" - and a length of 165 ft ( 50.3m). This standard-sized section came to represent the New Zealand dream, and hence Austin Mitchell's description of this country in 1972 as "The Half-Gallon, Quarter Acre, Pavlova Paradise". Another useful feature of the quarter-acre section was that it had room for a septic tank, to deal with toilet waste before the days of the mains sewage system. www.kiwianatown.co.nz /modules/quarteracre.html   (678 words)

McAllen-Edinburg-Mission Market Report: Economy Based on the Treaty's guidelines, Mexico's failure to deliver an annual 350,000 acre feet of water to the US has cost the state some 448 billion gallons of water, resulting in more than 3,300 jobs and $105.76 million in personal income not realized statewide in 2002. The 1944 treaty requires Mexico to provide an average of 350,000 acre-feet of water to the United States each year, most of it from the Rio Conchos Basin. This treaty calls for Mexico to transfer an average of 350,000-acre-feet of water, and this payment brings the amount Mexico has transferred in this treaty year to 384,000-acre-feet. recenter.tamu.edu /mreports03/McAllenEdMiss11.asp   (8597 words)

Chapter 2, Page 4 - Utah's Water Resources: Planning for the Future (Utah Division of Water Resources) In the Upper Colorado River Basin, which encompasses the Uintah, West Colorado River and Southeast Colorado River basins, the 420,000 acre-feet per year shown represents a net depletion of surface water flows in the Colorado River and its tributaries, and is Utah's remaining Colorado River Compact allocation. In the Jordan River & Utah Lake basins, the 50,000 acre-feet per year represents mainly surface water development from existing storage in Utah Lake and a small amount of additional ground water development. In the Kanab Creek/Virgin River Basin, the 20,000 acre-feet per year represents 16,000 acre-feet of potential ground water development and 4,000 acre-feet of surface water storage. www.water.utah.gov /WaterPlan/uwrpff/Chp-02d.htm   (461 words)
