The southern CfA2 galaxy data are used to investi- gate the scaling properties of the galaxy number distribution. We construct two volume-limited samples with galaxy magni- tudes MB(0) 19:42 and MB(0) 20:00, and calculate the second- to ninth-order moments with the box-counting method. On scales from 5 to 27 h 1 Mpc, the moments exhibit multi- fractal scalings. From the exponents of the scalings, we suggest that the galaxies lie in planar structures which have filamentary dense regions.
