The Nyssa Gate City Journal, Nyssa, Oregon Adrian High School Town And Country Gardon Club THE PAST 10 YEARS AGO 30 YEARS AGO A picture recently found was identified by Audrey Ward as the first graduating class of 1911. Graduates were Kendrick Blod gett, deceased; Florence Mc Donald Belnap, Lewiston; Eva Boydell, Nyssa; and Bruce Dun can, deceased. The photo was found by Mrs. Ralph Lawrence as she was going through some old records in the Nyssa Insurance Agency office. The business at 105 Main street was formerly owned by Miss Boydell’s father, Josiah Boydell and was operated as Nyssa Realty Company. It was later sold to Don M. Graham, who in turn sold the business to his son-in-law and daughter, the Lawrences. The picture was presented by Lawrence to the school at annual award night held May 23. It was accepted by Don Arai, student body president-elect. Mrs. Belnap was vale dictorian and Miss Boydell was salutatorian of the class. A three-story building housed the entire grade and high schools with classrooms on the first two floors and the upper story used for science classes. The old three-story structure was destroyed by fire in 1934 when a new building was erected and with later additions is now the present grade school building. 20 YEARS AGO Growers of beets in 1940 were agreeably surprised when they received in their Memorial Day mail a subsequent payment from the Amalgamated Sugar Company on the beets produced for 1940. The payment amounted to 30 cents per ton on beets harvested in 1940. The total payment for the entire Factory District amounted to approximately $80,000,000. Of this amount growers in Malheur County re ceived slightly over $33,000.000. This payment was made possible due to the fact that during the last several months sugar markets have shown con siderable improvement. Ac cording to R.G. Larson, Man ager for the Nyssa District, there is a prospect for addi tional payments, if sugar con tinues at its present level throughout the remainder of the year. pAVID W.

TENDER PORK STEAK F 7 Royal Crown 12 COLA ROLLS 6 pak INDIAN GEM APPLE 60 YEARS AGO S.N. Emison of this city, ob serving that the great propor tion of the land in this sec tion is being set to fruit trees, decided to investigate the grape industry and test the crop in this soil and climate. He set a trial acre to a mixed variety of grapes, secured the as sistance of a practical vine yard man, and made a thorough test of the different varieties of grapes. The result was unexpectedly flattering, the commercial varieties producing an average of 60 pounds to the vine, for which he found a ready market FOB Nyssa, at 5£ per pound. Boise market consumes an nually six carloads of grapes, at a shipping cost of $600 per car. Thus it developes that the home grown grape, with its better flavor and fresh from the vines is sought for. This season Emison set fif teen acres of land on Bridge Island near town to Concord grapes. W. Voght has purchased five acres of this vineyard, he being a practisal vineyardist, and has been put in charge of the whole tract. If this vineyard is the success there is every reason to expect, it is more than probable that grape culture will become one of the chief industries of this section of the country. oz Well Trimmed lb PORK LOIN ROAST Gala "Big Roll" — PAPER TOWELS 3 Gala 160 ct FAMILY NAPKINS4#k«* SI A W mf i «w ' f - »*■- CHUNK STYLE BOLOGNA h ». 49< NABISCO Libby’s 6 *1 LEMONADE 10 2 89< HORMET 5 oz.
