Carl Wolph. and en their return home
came by way of Shenandoah where
they stopped to visit the broadcast-
I
ins stations of Henry Field and Karl

May. Frank told that gentleman that
they should have a shorter wave
length, that they might reach their
near neighbors, for he observed that
in the immediate vicinity of Shenan
doah, there was a need of much paint
on the farm houses and barns, and
in fact that paint was badly needed
even in town, resides this there was
a decided scarcity of orchards and
small fruits, and that if the two nur
sery companies could only get next
to their own people they might find
a good market for their wares, and
he thought it would be well to change
their wave lengtn.
