The city commission is urging the retention of two full-time nurses in the Lyon county health unit.

The commissioners passed a resolution this week recommending the reten- 'tlon of two nurses. The resolution be sent to the county commissioners, who have the power to decide whether or not the services of one nurse shall be discontinued. The proposal to discontinue the service of one nurse came after the U. S. Public Health Service ruled 3,060 pdunds o' milt a day.

Other truck drivers have, sirmlar stories and they All tend to verify ihe increasingly apparent fact that farmers, especially those in the ffutlyincr sections oJ the county, the whole milk marlce: supplied by the factory. Heretofore these farmers have separated their milk and sold the cream, shipping or brinfrinc it to Emporia or tbeir nearest town. Now a truck driver comes along and the milk is picked tip in their dooryards.

The first checks will come to the farmers Juae 3. and until they see just what their milk is bringing some of the farmers hesitate To make statements. On the whole they feel that the factory is a good thing for the county, and the prices paitl look like good mono: The" trying it out and the fu- will tell whether the factory is as ffccd a thing as it appears to bs.

This means that the county commissioners must employ a county doctor and it was argued that Dr. Fulton would have more time to give to disease prevention after he was relieved of his charily medical practice and that only one nurse would be needed. j.

The second the county about $2,500 a year, he said, estimating $1,800 for her wages and $GO a month for expenses.

Mr. Woodson said, "but I had lived there and slaved there so long I wanted to get away, so I went across the river to Cincinnati and enlisted. As I was just across the river from home I had to tell them I was from Tennessee. My owner was Alexander Wright, and he was a good man, too lenient, perhaps, but I got away from there anyhow. After the war I went right back and worked there on the farm for about five years.

I was married there, in 1866, to Miss Josephine Logan." Mrs. 'Woodson died in 1896 and Mr. Woodson was married again. 1897, to Mrs. Fanny Chapman.

He has no children. June 19 will be Mr. and Mrs. Woodson's thirty-third wedding anniversary. and will be Mrs.

Woodson's seventy-fifth birthday anniversary. Mr. Woodson came to Emporia from Kentucky in 1878 and bought a farm on Coal creek, south of Emporia. When he moved to Emporia from the farm he sold the place to Hugh P. Davis.

Mr. Davis later sold the farm to Gwill Lewis, the present owner. It is one of the best pieces of land in the county. Mr. Woodson always has had great respect for the Welsh, and said that they were good neighbors to him in the country.

Since that time business in rrencrnl been improving and more persons have been steadily employed. The 20, 1880, we met General McKenzie and his bodyguard, with the cavalry a few yards behind, between the lake fork of the Qunntcon river and the Big Blue. They were on their way from the cantonment on the Uncompahgre river to Fort Riley, That afternoon about 6 o'clock we met the Jackson bull outfil, an ox train coming out. They drove to one side and we all stopped. Jackson asked it we had heard of his and we told him we had not.

They had camped on. the divide two nights before, between the Little Blue and the Cimarron, as was the habit of bull outfits. They always camped away from the streams, and the night herder would allow the cattle to drift back to the streams during the night for Early in the morning he would have-the oxen rounded up and in camp ready to yoke up and be hitched by daylight. On this oc-r casion there. into the camp about dusk, two Indians, who asked for biscuits.

Jackson's nephew, who was baking biscuits in a Dutch oven, replied that they were not done. The Indians began swearing at him, and rode in a circle around the camp', and when a short distance away they fired their guns into-lhe campfire. Jackson left the fire', went to the wagons, got out his Winchester and stood between the wagons and watched untH the fired into camp. He and one of the bull-whackers returned the fire, and the Indians rode away in the darkness. Next morning, when the bull train arrived at the stage station, on the Cimarron.

they were met by the Indian agent, 13 United States soldiers and 300 Indians. Placed under Arrest. "Jackson and all his teamsters were placed under arrest, they were searched and their firearms and their pocketknives taken away from them. They were charged with killing one Indian and wounding another. They parleyed all that day.

and were guarded that night by the 13 soldiers and 13 Indians. The next morning they reached an agreement. Young Jackson was to be taken lo Gunnison Cily. 55 miles Three white men, one Indian and young Jackson started to Gunnison in a spring wagon. The elder Jackson had been compelled to unload his freight, which he was taking to Ouray.

He met tne mail carrier before he met us. The mail carrier had not met the party, which was on the only road to but he saw the tracks where a light rig had turned around on the grade orj the Little Blue. Jackson felt certain the party had turned back and had taken the Tuttle trail to the Indian camp, and he erpected his nephew would be killed. All the white men were suspicious" of old Captain Cline. one of the guards with young Jackson.

Cline lived with his family at the stage station on the Cimarron. and was the only white man on the reservation. Jackson's suspicions were correct. separated, with much misgiving, not knowing our own fate. General McKenzie and all but a few of the soldiers went to guard the agency.

That night we camped on the Little Blue. When -we reached the Cimarron we decided Lo pull on to Squaw creek, not snowing -whether we would find water for our mules. We carried water with us for cooking. We found no water, so started back to the Cimarron, after sunset. I was in the lead on the bell horse, and as we.

were going down grade the mules made a great deal of noise on the hard road with their shod feet. I talked to them, and as I always talk loud I could be heard a long way that still evening, when everyone was listening for Indians. "As we approached the Cimarron I could discern several wagons in the gathering dusk, but no person was in sight. The teamsters were all in the bush, but as wc ncared nnd the road will be sanded. the camp one of them recognized Highway SON between the Lyon my voice.

There were 13 teams in camp altogether, and only one 6-shooter. carried by Tom Samson. Next day we reached our destination and unloaded our freight, and returned to Alamosa without teeing an Indian, after all our scare. There was freight for a return trip, but no one wanted to back through the Indian country. The Last Trip.

Texas. It was a 27,000 pound shipment. C. L. Teiss- ler, production manager, who arrived in Emporia Saturday, said the shipment would be stored at Denison and that some of it might Le processed Saturday was the first pay day for farmers are supplying milk to the factory.

The checks were for the first 10 days of factory operation. May 5 to May 15. As many of the producers were not selling milk the -first 10 days, many checks were comparatively snv.ll. The factory had not figured the total amount paid. The next pay day, June 15, will show more definitely what the factory will mean to the fanners.

Butterfat prices went down Saturday from 44 cents a pound to 40 cents, the cut being at all Kraft plants. Mr. Teissler said the condition of the cheese market necessitated the cut. The factory still is handling in excess of 27,000 pounds of milk daily, and Mr. Tiessler has asked the company officials for immediate bttion in the matter of supplying needed equipment.

"This is the first time the company has built a plant and installed a boiler as small horsepower," Mr. Tiessler said. "Other plants usually get a 50 horsepower boiler. This' also is the first plant- built by Kraft which has exceeded its boiler capacity within the first year. The' company officials evidently now are debating whether to install a 50 horsepower boiler or one larger.

A larger, one would mean an addition to the plant as the present boiler room will handle only a 50 horsepower boiler, good for 50.000 pounds of milk. This is a 50,000 pound plant when fully equipped, but it looks as if 75,000 or more pounds would be forthcoming within two years. I do not look for more than 50,000 pounds the first year." May Have Mfht Shift. Until equipment to relieve the emergency arrives, Mr. Teissler is vorking toward a night shift.

This necessitates careful planning. When in operation, the truck drivers will make two trips a day. The routes will be split, and possibly enlarged, waiting customers taken on. This will result in an increased supply of milk and warrant the expense of a night shift. Sunday set a new record for milk the plant having received 27.919 pounds.

Saturday, 27,651 pounds wera received. Friday's receipts were 26,205, Thursday's were 27.008. and Wednesday's 27.800. Today was the nineteenth straight day in which receipts totaled 20,000 pounds or more. structed this year.
