In the last number of the Red River
News we see an article copied from the
Opel0usas JOURNAL, defining the
Square question. Ourfriend jackson
says that a square is 312 ems of any
sized type. By referring to the resolu-
ton adopted at the last meeting of the
members of the press, and which if we
are not mistaken, was offered by friend
jackson, we find that q square consists
of 312 ems Nonpareil or it's equivalent.
Now, in order to find out the true defn-
ition of o square" take for instance
ten lines of Nonpareil in standard meas
ure of thirteen ems Plea, and set these
ten lines up in any other sized type and
you will find the equivalent" for 312
ems Nonpareil. In other words 624 ems
Plea is the equivalet for 312 ems Non
pareii, because it will take that space to
put up the amount of matter contained
In the Nonpareil advertisement of ten
lines.
We take the above from the Baton
Rouge Gazette-C Comet. Our friend An
mis- is entirely offthe track. Newspaper
columns thirteen ems plea wide is con-
sidered standard measure. 1t would
take twenty-six ems nonpareil to fill
a linein such a column. Six such lines
plea would fill the space Of one inch
and twelve lines nonpareil would fill
the same space. The convention adopt
ed nonpaFeil as tile standard of meas.
urement for advertisements, and one
inch in that type contains three hundred
I'M twelveems. Why, brother Annis, siz
hundred and tWenty-four emspica would
fill eight inches space in acolumn of thu
width above mentioned. Just walkintG
your composition room and take foul
nonpareil EN- quadrats, place them to
gether, and, put them end to end with
plea EN- quadrat, and you will find thu
four nonpareil ems to be the same sizt
of one plea EN-, which proves that on,
inch in nonpareil will be four inches, i
set in plea. 1t is plain therefore, tina
six hundred and tWenty-four ems-twt
inches in nonpareil-Would make eigh
inches in plea. We did offer the reso
luton that d square should consist o
three hundred and twelve ems, which j
exactly one inch in the measurement
aforesaid; but, the word equivalent,
was stuck ON to it, and is mere surplus
age. A bushel Of shelled corn is s
much, and its equivalent on the cob am
covered with the shuck is about tire
bushels. A square of nonpareil type i
one inch, making three hundred an,
twelve ems, and its equivalent in pic
is also three hundred and twelve emf
making four inchesinstead OF one. An
30 Of any other kind Of type; three hun
dred and twelve ems il the square.

RAISING CH1CKENs.-I desire to write
what [ know about raising turkeys and
chickens. The recipes given for curing
chickens of the gapes, such as whites of
eggs, corn meal with pepper, wheat
soaked in ~turpentine, and a number of
others, are Of little if any value. The
gapes in chickens are caused by small
worms getting in the windpipe. [ have
raised thousands upon thousands of
chickens, bought and sold chickens, and
believe that gapes is a contagious dis
ease, for my chickens never had them
till | bought strange chickens. I have
tried many cures, and there are none
that amount to anything except the
hOrse-hair. BY inserting the horse
hair in the chickens windpipe, you
draw the small red worm out, and this
at once relieves the chicken, and the
gapes are cured. -
In regard to raising turkeys, the best
plan is to feed them on milk made into
cheese with wheat and wheat screening.
In time Of rain keep them in the dry,
for when they get wet they getdraggled
and die. Corn meal [ have tried, and
upon a clear examination | find that it
does not agree with them. Old turkeys
do best, [ think, out in the cold on
trees, rather than in sheltered places.
Let every farmer be cautious of what
he feeds young turkeys until they are
ten weeks old. | know that the fore
| going is correct, for L have tried many
| plans, and experience is always the
best guide.| Reading Pa Gazette.

AT THE OPTION OF PURCHASERS!
1t has been four years before the public, and
its success is really remarkable. Its superiority
over all others, and the claims of the manufuc-
tureFs, are we'll substantiated by the following
FACTS:
There are more Parker Guns in the hands of
American SpOrtmen than any Foreign breech-
loader.
There are three times as many Parker Guns in
the hands of American Sp0rtmen as there are of
any other American made bFecel-lOader.
At the Utica convention of the New York State
SpOrtmen'S Association, the number of sports
men who used the Parker gun was equal to that
of all Others who used central fire hrCcch load
erS, of both American and Foreign make COM
bined.
While the Parker gun is so often reported as
distinguishing itself mt large shoots throughout
the country, it is noticeable that few such reports
are made Of any other gun.
The lowest price Parker guns are within reach
of those OF moderate means, while they are in
every way Il thoroughly good gun. u
The higher grade Parker guns are gotten Hpin
a style eqnaled by few, and cXcelleu by none.

I approve the foregoing petition, and request
your honorable body to grant the prayer of the
petitioners. The Guillorys were desperad0es
who had boosted that they would never be ar
rested, They resisted the officers and posse who
were armed with the necessary Bench warrants
and no alternative was left but to kill them or
abandon the effort to arrest them. When an
officer armed with q Bench warrant for the az
rest of O thief and a murderer, summons him to
surrender in the name OF the State, he should
surrender at discretion and without hesitation
or p%arleying, and if he ~resists, should do so with
a full consciousness that he does so at the peril
of his life. When Cyriaque Guillory was mott
fed that his house was surrounded by deputies
and armed posse with Bench warrants for his
arrest, he should have submitted instanter and
Internationally; when, instead of doing this he
chose to resist the officers, he forfeited his life,
and if he was killed no one is to blame but him
self. t'. 4-'
From the return made on the warrants, T am
satisfied the deputies and posse acted with the
greatest discretion. I am personally acquainted
with every member of the posse and know them
to be not only brave men, but cool and collected
men. who would not lave acted rashly or indis-
ereetly under any circumstances, and in law,
equity and justice they are clearly entitled to
the reward as if they had brought the parties
here andPd delivered them to the Sheriff.

At the Exposition they were awarded the
highest medal for the best instruments of this
class in the world, and the Industrial Society
of Austria has awarded them its Grand Medal
excellence of their productions. This dis
tinction has never been conferred on more
than five Americans. No other American
manufacturer of cabinet or parlor organs has
ever succeeded in obtaining any award in
competition with European makers. This is
the second time the Mason & Hamlin Organ
Company have come out ahead in such COM
parsons, as they took the first medal in Paris
