T R A D E PROSPECTS IN N Y S S A A R E A ARE G O O D Prospects for the development of trade in Nyssa from outside the city was substantiated by City School Superinten dent Henry H. Hartley at a meeting of the Nyssa chamber of commerce last week. The population of the Nyssa union high school district, based on the school census, was estimated by Mr. Hartley at approximately 4500. In addition merch ants have an opportunity of reaching 3000 more persons in Adrian, Arcadia and Val ley View districts, making a possible 7500 in this trading area. As an example, the merchants of Baker, which has a population of approxi mately 9000, have a population of not to exceed 13,000 to draw from, except for other towns in the county. In contrast to the Baker situation, the handful of merch ants in Nyssa each has great possibilities of developing business because of the greater proportion of population to num ber of business firms. This very pleasing situation is go ing to be enhanced by the restriction on automobile travel, caused by the shortage of tires and tubes, Nyssa residents will naturally trade at home more and as they become* better acquainted with local stocks they will continue to trade with the men who are riding on the same wagon. Everyone in this community is traveling the same road and any lack of cooperation is going to hurt the entire community. INTEREST T A K E N IN FARM ERS Local business men, through their civic organizations, are to be congratu lated on their interest in the farming in dustry in this section. Recently the Lions club contrib uted $10 to the chemurgic council, which is studying means of developing new farm crops in the Idaho-Oregon territory. Last week the chamber of commerce voted to give $12 to send 4-H club leaders to a conference to be held in Union. The chamber of commerce has also been cooperating in other ways in trying to assist the farming interests. Farmers o f the community are also showing Their appreciation of the local merchants’ at titude. ON VALENTINE’S DAY... Remember Uncle Sem, toot A lso Give U. S.
