Il NO. 11 I h a b e e PRINTS GOOD At Every Point in Actual Development Work gpoodent frt a Good Oi Heading of “Prt Wetn ern Develop ia Fruit Lai MDfinaiul, Section H<1- Making Nyssa the Junction City of the two Main Lines of the 0. S. L., by way of the Nyssa-Buhl Extension, is now building and will be completed this year. The construction crews are now at work from Nyssa to Homedale. 30,000 BRIDGE Is contracted and the contract requires completion within five months. This big Steel Bridge spans Snake River from the end of Main street, and brings directly tributary to this City 40,000 acres of rich Fruit Land, 3,000 acres of which are now planted to Orchards, divided into 5 and 10 acre Tracts.| PUMPING PLANTS Two large Pumping Plants, furnishing water for the irrigation of over 15,000 acres of the most fertile lands tributary to Nyssa, are now on the verge of the construction period. Pay Rolls and Business Opportunities Two thousand men on railroad construction will be paid off monthly in Nyssa, this city being the headquarters of the contractors between here and Homedale. Added to this will be the payrolls of the workmen on bridge construction, pumping plant construction, canal construction and city improvements, making a payroll of more than $300,000 per month. The fact that the contractors on the railroad construction work will install no commissary at the camps, leaves Nyssa as the supply and outfitting point for all railroad work. This, in addition to supplying the other construction crews, means a million-dollar business during the coming year. Real Estate purchased at the present prices will without doubt double in value during the next few months, both in the business and residence districts. Lots sell now from $75 up.
