NEXT TO DEA P H ; A FIRE— you stand by and watch your life sav W HEN ings and possessions go up in flames, you are enduring life’s worst heartache— save the loss of a loved one. The nation’s heart goes out to the 1500 residents of Bandon, Oregon, who saw all they owned go up in smoke. Fire annually destroys, besides millions in property, more fish and game than all the hunt ers and fishermen bring home. This week is Fire Prevention week and the nation is reminded that fire can he both a friend and a fiend. Each ore of us can fight carelessness with fire, for the next worst thing to death is fire on the rampage. Most fires ^an be prevented, and most fires which have started can be stopped if prompt action is taken. A strong fire department is almost as necessary to a city as a good doctor. One saves homes, the other lives. Necessarily in the smaller cities, much of the work of the fire department must be volunteer labor. Citizens should consider this a civic duty where shirkers are unpopular, and an efficient fire depatment is something a city may view with pride. Nyssa is proud of it’s fire department and it’s work. As the city grows, we trust those charged with af fairs will see that the department grows in size and efficiency to keep pace with Nyssa. ------------------+ ----------------- CAUCUS TO PICK C IT Y CANDIDATES NEXT TU E SD A Y— T IME for election is rapidly drawing close to the zero hour, and the first guns in the city election will he fired next Tuesday at the city caucus, called by the council. It is time for all citizens in Nyssa to be thinking of who they want for candidates at this coming election, and be present Tuesday at the caucus. DUST DRAW S W R A TH OF L O C A L T A X P A Y E R S — T HE past few years has seen a wholesale mi- gatron of people from the mid-west to escape the so-called “ dust howl.” Dust flying in huge clouds made it unbearable to live, and crops unprofitable. However many of these people should feel right at home when they come to Nyssa. Not that we have a windy country; but for some reason we have a super-abundance of dust and dirt on our streets and sidewalks. Nor can we charge this to the city fathers or those entrusted with the care of our streets. In order to keep the dust o ff the streets and out of the merchant’s stock of goods, it is neces sary to sprinkle, and sprinkle liberally. To do this it takes money, and the budget does not pro vide for any great amount o f sprinkling. Complaints have come to our notice from all sides; from business men and housewives, and in drawing up the budget for the coming year, it might be well to take this dust problem into con sideration. A clean, well-kept town is a big asset ar.d it :s tir*.? rt. rr were taken in that direction. H A P P Y DAYS ARE HERE A G A IN — thankful we are living in one of nature’s favored spots, with rich soil, plenty of water and every thing in our favor. While the farmers of the irri gated west are prospering this year, the exact opposite is true in the wind-swept, parched middle-west. One section prospers at another’s misfortune. The millennium will have been reached when we get good prices every year for all we can raise. fSlippy, Udith Douglas. Dale Glenn and a cousin ol Nadine and Leslie Crocker.

Squirts FROM THE LINOTYPE The early potato harvest has been over for some time, and some very handsome returns made this year on a favorable market. Beets are now being harvested, with good yields reported and a price that makes this crop one of the best. Lettuce price prospects are excellent and about the only dark spot is the current onion quota- ions. Eg£ production is profitable again and but- terfat prices bring smiles to the dairymen.
