Fry is from an apple country and
knows the ins and out3 of the fruit

suitable ldbation. He saw Califor-

every vicinity in Oregon that was
likely to prove a suitable place —
even Vale and Ontario but found
it not until he saw Nyssa’s sur­

Nyssa and her prospects for be­

centers of the west us she is in tne

emphasis, thfit Nyssa has the

Fry leaves Nyssa for Colorado but
will soon be back with his family.
