GOLDEN WEDDING
A Notable Family Reunion Held In
This City Last Friday.

Friday November Is, 1910
proved great day for the
Bailey family. The immediate occa-
sion of calling together the scattered
members was the celebration of the
fiftieth wedding anniversary of Mr..
and Mrs. John Bailey of Broken Bow,
Nebraska, the father and mother of
the pastor of the First Presbyterian
church here. For some days previous
small parties had been arriving from
various parts of the compass, and on
Thursday Rev. DR. George Bailey and
family arrived from Erie, Pa follow
ed shortly by Rev. George Longstaff
and family of Lynch, Neb In all the
house party numbered twenty-six, in
cluding twelve grandchildren, and
one great grandchild.
The anniversary dinner was beau
tifully served at one o'clock in the
European Hotel and almost every o.
sirable eatable graced and burdened
the festive board. A few guests
were present as particular friends of
the aged couple comprising Mr.. and
Mrs. John f. Walsh, Mr.. and Mrs. r..
Keiser, and Miss NJ. Murphy of Hum
boldt Nebraska and Dr. William r
Boose and wife of this city.
At the close of the repast the eld-
est son and child of the family, DR..
r. Cooper Bailey, fittingly character
ized the occasion as one of great
joy and gratitude, not only to the
aged parents, who fifty years ago to-
day joined hands and hearts in a life
long and happy union, but to their
six children and their partners in
life by marriage with the several
grandchildren.
Mr. J. T. Walsh spoke in a happy
and complimentary vein to the toast
"Reminiscences" while "The son
ought to have been" was humorously
responded to by the second son, Or,
George Bailey In the name of the
family the Rev r. Cooper Bailey
handed his parents fifty dollars in
gold in recognition of the fifty years
of their married life and further
sum of sixteen dollars, all in gold
from immediate friends.
A number of other presents came
from wellwishers in the form of
gold and silver spoons, gold specta-
cles for father and mother, a very
profusion of large golden chrysanthe-
NUNS, set of hand painted pins in
gold and black, and many other valu-
able articles.
Mr. Bailey still has the clipping
from the newspaper circulated in
Durham, England, telling of his we'd
ding so long ago.
They came to this country a little
over sixteen years ago, settling in
Humboldt, and after a few years
spent there moved to Broken Bow
where they make their permanent
home, arranging to spend the win
ters in the Manse with their son, Dr..
r. c. Bailey.
A regular shower of letters. tele-
grams, postal cards, and messages
came from different parts of this
country and from England congratu-
lating these old people and wishing
for them the very best things both
for this life and the life that is to
come

own crops. All the stock is fed
in our barn. We employ man
who does ali OF the feeding,
watering, etc. The hands bring
the stock to the lot, turn them in
and have no more to do with them
until work time again. We furn-
lSh troopers with so much cash
per month for supplies, or we
furnish supplies to them at cash
prices. These they get weekly.
Nearly all of them prefer to get
their supplies from us. We have
each man to keep book OF his
own which we post weekly to tally
with our ledger. This takes time,
but we find that it pays. We
never make a mistake in an ac-
count, as one book corrects the
other. Each man know exactly
how his account stands.
We furnish homes, garden
patches and wood free.
We try to keep the homes COM

We encourage all to try to ac-
cunnlate some personal property.
We insist that all of the whites
send their children TO school.

Negro Horribly Burned.

A negro man about rs years of
age was horribly burned at the
North & South Carolina R. r.
camp near Mr.. D. H. Hyatt's S
place Saturday night. The man,
who belongs to the construction
force, was sleeping in a tent and
when he awoke the tent had caught
fire in some unknown manner and
was a mass of flames. Two other
negroes were sleeping in the tent
but they awoke and escaped before
the fire had gained much headway.
leaving their sleeping companion
to his fate. When the unfortunate
man awoke and realized his
his danger he broke through the
flames in an effort to escape but
his clothing was ignited and he
was severely burned about the
arms and face. DR.. G. S. Brown
who was called to attend him said
that he would probably recover,
but that his burns were of very
serious nature. The negro is a
native of North Carolina and came
down here with the railroad con-
struction force.

HOW | MANAGE LABOR

just now 1t appears to us that an
article on farm labor and the en-
ploy ing of the laborcr would be
timely.
We employ the most intelligent
and reliable help that we can get.

to nave about the same numbcr of

to be a negro burying or something
OF the kind during our busiest sea-
son, we will have enough whites
lett at home to carry on the most
important wori. We find the
whites more prompt about being
on time TO begin work, which has
its influence on the ncGrocS. The
whites are liable to become dis
couraged, then disSatisfc-, ready
to give up their crops and go to
the mills. When such is the case
we always try to make satisfac-
tory settlement and let them go.
Often they come back and gather
this same crop that they began in
the spring Many of our tenants
have been with us for years, others
go and come. This rowing, un-
satisfiable labor is a great draw
back to farming.

we would employ only wage

sion or that Of a superintendent.
But, as that can not be done, we
Ell. .ploy only part OF our hands
for wages. We prefer men with
families. We allow so much an
hour for wages. During the win
ter the wages only amount to about
two-thirds as much as they do dur
ing the summer months. We
give ten per cent. additional at the
expiration of the contract for
faithful fulDfilment. We make
weekly settlements. To keep the
time we have conveniently ar
ranged time book. AT night we
put opposite each mans name
the number of hours that he has
worked that day. The women
and children have a third crop,
that is, they hoe and pick crop
of cotton, receiving for their la
Dor one-third of lint cotton made,
less one-third the guano bill. We
get the seed. They pay no other
expenses.
We advance very little on this
crop. The wages of the man feed
the family.
We also employ choppers, Civ
ing one-half of the crops made for
labor, the croppers paying one
half the guano bill. We. specify
in the contract that all crops are
to be planted and cultivated ac-
cording to our directions.
