Too Much.

Nothing Is gained by trying to grow too mnny plants or trees on an acre. It Is not always the number of plants that Increases the yield, but their thrift and feeding capacity. A dozen strong and stocky plants will produce more than double that number which gre weak and spindling. Trees that are too close together simply come Into competition for food and do not grow as rapidly as they should.
