closer together, but the hundred feet is my estimate after having my own small xmas tree farm and also a plot in the Ozarks (lots of trees), it's just a reasonable estimate I came up w/ and I could be wrong, but when you consider the size of some of these white oaks, 100 is probably okay. The 50 times the of MO was just an estimate too, I thought I was under estimating the size of the US, 20% roughly, my bad too.

Ha ha, and I have to laugh about your joke about the rakes and to hire all of those rakers...since we're cracked down (rump did) on immigrants (legal and illegal), we can't even get enough workers to pick the fruits, plus the whole harvest requires on the part of workers.
