The Farmville Herald - AND FARMER-LEADER. VOLUME 62 Hunor forAVlor P,"'n' FARMVILLE, VIRGINIA. TUESDAY, JANUARY 6, 1953 ~ \£T NO. 31 Prescription For Hearts of Hunters Nick Land, of Buckingham county, shows oiT his dog, Blue, to his grandson. Wayne Plunkett, son of Mr. and Mrs Clyde Plunk ett, of Gordonsville. Blue recently killed a 156-pound buck in a tight to the end in Slate River. Dojr Battles 20-Point Buck For The Kill In Slate River Ignoring two big IFs the Blue Tick mongrel killed the 20-point buck m Slate River in Bucking ham county. Although hunters and out doorsmen in this area have heard similar stories aboul deer and dogs battling it out in water, it is one that attracts attentive ears and unbelieving looks. The two IP's surmised by the dog's owned. Nick Land, who lives two miles west of Buckingham Court House, help explain the creriioility of the story that is making the rounds m Buckingham these days. When Nick Land was working!' cn some post holes in a field near Slate River about two weeks ago. he heard his two dogs, one of them the two-and-half-ycar old Blue Tick mongre.. Blue, hot on the trail of some thing. But that wasn't unusual because he often heard his dogs trailing an animal while he was working on the farm. ’•ii'ht To End Tiie dogs ran the animal about a half mile down Slate River; and Mr. Land decided to take a look to see what it was all about. When lie arrived at the river. Rusco Window Co. Of Form vide Opens In Bloomfield Bid#. The Rusco Window Company of Farmville has been opened with offices in the Bloomfield Buiklrhg on West Third street It the 15th dealership organized under Rusco Corporation of Virginia at Richmond. J hn Maxey. of Rustburg. :s the rales manager and Dennis Cr:t zer. the Service manager M' Maxey will reside in Farmville at 20.3 Randolph street. Mr. Critzer has been engaged in business here for the past several years. Tiie Farmville office will con duct sales and service for Rusco combination windows and doors in an eight county area in Mecklenburg. Lunenburg. Bruns wick. Amelia. N ttoway, Bucking ham. Cumberland and Prince Ed ward counties. about a quarter of a mile from 1 where the Slate and North Rivers fork, he saw Blue in the water waging a fight to the end with she 156-pound buck. Fighting in about two and a half feet of water. Blue would grab the deer's tail. The jerk would cause the deei to lose his balance, and his head would go under water. Losing his balance was one of the IF's of the story. After pulling the drowned deer from the water, Mr. Land found that he had been wounded in the right front leg several years ago. and although the leg had healed, ihe wound caused his leg and shoulder "to fade away." as Mr. Land said This fading away of leg and shoulder was’ apparently caused by the wound and disuse curing the healing period. Tired And Stiff Then. Mr Land ventured the ether IF. He noticed fur and /iesh caught in the 20-point rack on the deer's head, so he guessed that the buck had been chased the day before. For that reason, the deer might have been tired and stiff. Mr. Land said. If it hadn't been for these two seasons. Blue would never have laid a chance with ihe buck." lie said. But these circumstances were present, "and Blue did kill the deer—and that's the story. Third Peer According to the lack on that deer's head, he should have weighed about 250 pounds." Mr. Kind said. "But his leg and shoulder had faded away. He must have come from the moun tains. I don't think we have deer that large in this area. ’ John Whorley. one of Nick Lands neighbors, checked the deer in on his license. And the head of the deer is in the hands of taxidermist now. As rare as such a story about an animal's fight foi survival is, Nick Land's excitement had been tempered. Anri it wasn't because he didn't enjoy a good, hunting story, but this was 'lie third deer that he had seen caught in a river Paraplegic. Native Of County, Designs Apparatus To Drive With Hands Only A native of Tuggle in Prince Edward county and 1942 graduate of Farmville High School. Arthur Shultz, has made hand controls 1 r his automobile. The 29-year old paraplegic who lives in Ches terfield county now. believes hi < 'iitrols have several advantages over conventional hand control that cost $250 and take several days t,o install. The son or Frank C Shu!!/, of Tuggle, the young man was in an automobile accident, near Petersburg Pike ill 1947 His buck was broken and his spinal column smashed in the crash, paralyzing him from the waist down One Tuggle resident -aid. 'We thought Arthur was a hopeless ease after the accident, and we .,i-c so happy to know that lie is now able to work. Advantages Arthur finds that the hand con trols that ho made for hjs car have several advantages—simpler, easier to install, and cncJiX'i. Standard type of hand controls requires several days to install. However. Arthur says he can switch his hand controls from one car to another in less than an hour About being cheaper, the stand ard type costs about $150. plus $100 to have the controls installed m a car. Arthur says that his set cost nothing for materials be cause he made it out of scrap metals and a friend did the labor ilrer aitoi he designed the appa ratus Basically, the controls designed by the former county man are this simple: To control the accelerator pedal, one end of a wooden stick, about a half inch in diameter, is clamped to the pedal. On the other end of the stick, which rests on the car seat, is a bicycle hand le grip. The stick, .resting on the seat, can be pushed down or let up by Arthur’s left hand.

Donald Morris, county PMA clerk, an nounced the figure. C rrptred to the last tvo years, the 1953 figure shows a slight dr op. Last vear, the government granted $29,981 to farmers of the county, and $36,196 in 1951. "Washington officials are stres- i sing the permanent t.yne of con- i servation practices, this year," j Mr. Morris said.

Chevrolet Dealers Make Ready To Show New Models Of Car Record breaking crowds are ex pected to throng Chevrolet dealer showrooms next week end for the debut of 1953 passenger car and truck models. Scheduled for public display for the first time. Friday* Jan. 9, the new line embraces the most far reaching improvements in Chev rolet history. W. E. Fish, general sales man ager of the company, bases a forecast of a record turnout on three significant factors. "First, reports of Chevrolet development work around Detroit have kindled more interest than ,n any previous model,” said Mr. Fish. "Secondly, dealers are ex pending more money and effort to make the event a success. "A third reason for anticipating large crowds is that dealers are extending their introductory per iod over two days. Traditionally, Chevrolet has displayed new models. Saturday. By unveiling the 1953 cars, Friday, dealers will have two days to be hosts to the public before the Sunday closing." Mr. Fish added that highway demonstrations will play a more important part than in former announceemnts because of the number of added performance features in the new cars.

The problem baffled everyone, until the U. S. • Department of Agriculture came up with the ans wer. They found that the brown spots and holes can develop in a garment that contains a zipper made of two metals. . . for example copper and aluminum. During the time the cotton dress is damp and in close contact with Iheso metals, electrolysis takes place, giving off enough acid to damage the fabric. Then when a hot iron is applied the damage shows up as brown spots or stains. PHONE 500 TODAY * 1 1 : parents, Mr. and Mrs. Forest Paulett. in their home here. Muss Nora Pitts, of Washing* ton.

The animal suddenly bolted, then scampered wildly down the high way. scattering boxes of baby chicks along the road for oyer a mile. The wild flight threw the wa gon against a culvert, breaking it in half and spilling what chicks remained into the gutter, while the team continued on with half a wagon. Neighbors gathered and helped pick up chicks and assemble them at the Sutton home.

Hen’s Busy Season About To Start Consumers can expect egg sup plies to increase from now on until spring. At this time of year plenty of high quality eggs are on markets, according to the U. S. Department of Agriculture. To the housewife who still thinks of spring as the time when more eggs go to market, poultry specialists explain that the mod em hen is different from the hen of 20 years ago. Reasons? Today's hen starts increasing her egg lay ing several months earlier—in December rather than in early spring. The modern hen is the result of years of improved breeding. Morover. she is better fed and better housed—often with electricity and warmed drinking water* in winter. Tennis was purely an amateur sport until 1926.

irOETS EVENTS IN TEE EEKALD AREA_ Sideline Views | BY JOHN STECK Old Dominion grid fans had a leal pigskin feast following the deeds of former college perform ers in the post-season Christmas games and during Sunday's pro fessional championship game be tween the Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns. Virginia's Cavaliers had the largest representation with Half back Bob Tata helping the South work a 21-21 tie in Miami's North South game. All-American Tom Scott, the Cavaliers’ great end saw action as the East pulled out a 21-20 triumph over the West Saturday at San Francisco. Two more of Coach Art Guepe’s charges. Bill Chisholm and Char lie Harding and ’’Meadows" Mio duszewski. of William and Mary, were in on the Gray's 28-7 vic tory in the annual Blue-Gray tussle, at Montgomery. Ala. Perhaps the outstanding per formance by an Old Dominion player, in the games featuring college players, was that of Handy Browles. of Washington and Lee. who gave an efficient performance as fullback on the South's team in the Miami game Broyles scored one of the touch downs on a 25-yard scamper. No less than four former Old Dominion college stars took part in Sunday's game, as the Lion' downed Cleveland 17-7 to win thp professional championshiD. In the winners' line-up were W & M's Lou Creekmur. giant tackle, and Bob Miller, who was a tackle stand-out at Virginia last year. For the lrsers. Tommy Thomp son. the former W & M linebacker and Walt Michaels. W i: L great at fullback, saw action. In total, it was a fine repre sentation and a credit to Virginia football, particularly in view of thp wide selection of players throughout the U. S. The extent to which footbal1 jpcord-keeping has been taken ill the SDTts world became start ingly evident this week with pub lication of final national stand ings in the Litkenhous Difference by Score ratings.

FHS In Group II Fix es Favored In AP Survey XVolverines May (Jet Second Try In State Tourney It's a little early to associate the Farrnville High Seho d Wolve rines with the State Group II basketball tournament, but if the 1953 quintet makes it they’ll find some old friends on hand waiting to mafc,e things rough. Rough for the Wolverines means what has resulted for FHS fives in five straight appearances at Blacksburg—first round bow out. The old friends would be most ?f the district teams that parti cipated last year, when Harrison burg's Blue Streaks eliminated PHS then went on to cop the State title. State Survey An Associated Press state-wide roundup last week produced the story (o show that practically all district winners last y^ar have teams pract’callv intact. The ex ception is South Boston in Dis trict IV. which lost hpavilv from the veteran squad that played so '■ell at Blacksburg last year and ill 1951. Fi\e clubs that played at Blacksburg last, year right now must be rated favorites to make 1 return trip— Churchland in Dis trict 1. Manchester, in District 2. the Wolverines in District 3.

The night's play gets underway at 7.30 with the girls game between the schools. For the Wolverines, the game marks the start of a rigorous January campaign which will find them making most oi the District 3 circuit. Coach Gilniei will take the squad to Biackstone Friday night for an important tilt with the Rams, another District tiltle contender. Bucks Strong Tonight's game will present one of the best five's Coach Dolliver has had in his five years at Buckingham Central. The Buck's have won three, while dropping earlier verdicts to John Randolph and the Wolverines. , In Melvin Jamerson and Kyle Knott the Bucks have two guards who can move the ball and shoot. They collected 24 points between them in the pre-Christmas game with FHS. Rowlett Bruce gives them height at center and cap able backboarding. He nipped many Wolverine rallies with his fine defensive work in the earlier game FHS won 57-38. The Wolverines lost a member of the squad during the holidays when Ronie Lawhorne. who was tirst substitute at forward, was injured in a hunting accident. He will be lost for the season.

Junior guard, is a key to the Death Valley offensive this sea ion The 20-year-old Roanoke collegian, who came to Hampden Sydney from William Fleming High School, came up with Little Six honorable mention honors last season. Slaydon specializes in set shots from the outside and, with the Tigers' lack of height this season, outside work is all-important to t he Tigers' success, or lack of it. The junior guard is also a shell ball handler and playmaker, and a backbone on defense for Coach Matthews' Garnet and Gray squad. Last season Slaydon scored 121 ! emus lot liie Tigers, compiling a 6.05 points - per - game average. Since the Tigers' played to use Emmy Johnson s height, the jun ior's scoring average wasn't high, but hr played a big part in the [ceding success winch ict Johnson gather a 25.9 game average—a Death Valley all-time perform ance.

Western Maryland and VMI. Roanoke and Westei n Mary land will invade Death Valley next week, the first coming Mon day night. Jan. 12. and the Green Terrors Friday night. With the Tigers' four losses against two wins pointing up their lack of height, emphasis will be placed on their outside game. Thus far that hasn't come up to ex pec at ions, but will improve as the season progresses. But Coach Matthews Tigers met some mighty tough opposi j.tion before Christmas as later ! results have shown. The Tigers aren't the only team to be buffet ed this season by Richmond.

National Editorial Association | - -- ■ - ' TUESDAY, JANUARY li. 105.°. _______! Trade Peace Basis j j secretary ot < ommerce occupies one of the most important positions in the cabinet. It is his responsibility to promote trade with other nations on a world-wide basis. However, this department does not have full control of its policies since the State Department and Congress can cir cumscribe its activities. Trade relation ships and development of world trade are important bases for prolonged peace, and may be the wedge to soften the Russian at titude. It must be remembered also that keen competition is growing. The West Germans recognize the im portance of trade relationships and have made long strides toward coaxing the Mid dle East nations into a developing German economy. Egnon Kaskeline, in a special report to the Christian Science Monitor, details Ger man influence in the Middle East nations. An increasing number of German technical, military and economic experts have been invited to till the places of departing Brit ish and other foreign experts. In Egypt. German advisors are said to have prepar ed General Naguib’s plan of action and his rpform program. Head of the German group is former SS General Dr. Wilhelm Voss, who headed the Central Armament Supply Board of the German Army. When he arrived two years ago .'50 of his top as sociates accompanied him. Other nations in this area are accepting German aid. Syria has called upon a form er general of the German Army, H. von Stutterheim, to reorganize its armed forces. Germans have become prominent in Middle East air traffic, many planes being flown by former pilots of the Luftwaffe. German exports to the Middle East— Egypt. Syria. Lebanon, Iraq, Saudi Arabia. and Iran—have increased from $.“>8,:!0l),000 , to an estimated 81,000,000 in 1952. Last year Germany succeed in regaining 75 per cent of its pre-war trade with Turkey, and in Egypt exports have increased three-fold since 1950. Germany controls approximate ly 25 per cent of Iran’s foreign trade. Though a conquered nation Germany has wisely directed her commerce to the sta tegic area of the world. It is an indication that Germany will rise again in thi* family of nations. Incidentally, this activity hy the West German government pi ay play a part in curbing communism, or breaking the (’old War plotted and executed by the Kremlin. Underlying causes of the present world crisis are economic. When world trade among free nations becomes prosperous, those people under communism will be made to see the folly of their position. Here is a real cold war in which the tree people of the world can call tin1 plays and take the lead again. World trade can be the key w hich will open the door of peace. The posi tion of the United States and her principal ally, Britain, is important in this rebirth of economic stability in a world now torn into two parts. Canada has recognized the possibilities and Canadian trade is being developed throughout the world, not only by increased exports but with an increase in imports. Trade is a two-way relation ship. a fact we must recognize and include in our policies. No doubt the subject will be high on the agenda as Prime .Minister Churchill, President-Elect Eisenhower and the old sage, Bernard Baruch, confer. We hope that our future policies will bring a period of prosperous world trade and world peace. .Much depends upon the decisions ol the incoming administration and Congress. Future Farm Homes 11 ore than half of the farm families in all 1 1 sections of the country except the Northeast prefer a one-story house with a basement and two porches. This pref erence is made clear in a report based on rural housing surveys just issued by the V. S. Department of Agriculture. In gen eral, American farm families are more alike than different in the kind of home they want. The report compiles results from the Northeastern, Southern, North Central, and Western areas of the nation surveyed by the Bureau of Human Nutrition and Home Economics in Cooperation with ,‘M Statu atrricultural experiment stations. Home makers of about 4,000 farm operator fami lies in 42' states were interviewed about household activities and housing prefer ences. The statistics show which housing features are likely to suit farm families best. In all regions, most families who pre fer a house more than one story high want a bathroom and at least one bedroom on the first floor. Bedrooms also rank as first choice in rooms to be added when and it expansion of present quarters can be start ed. A separate dining room, plus eating space in the kitchen, is almost universally deaired. Seating space for more than the number in the family at tables in both din ing room and kitchen is wanted since halt the families in the Northeast. South, and West serve extra people at family meals as often as once a week. It was found that more than DO percent of the farm women preserve food for family use, most of them preferring to do this in the kitchen. However, almost 00 percent of Southern women would rather use a porch for part of the work. The fact that at least DO percent of tlyc farm families interviewed do all or most of the family washing at home emphasized the need for laundry space. Most of the women like a basement area or work room for this although one-third of the Southern women favor an outside building. And, ex cept in the South, the kitchen is the pre ferred place for ironing, especially in the winter. Sewing is an activity in which over three-fourths of farm women engage. A separate room for sewing is on the desired list for about half of the North Central. Northeastern, and Western women who sew. However, almost half of the Southern farm women would rather use a bedroom as a sewing room. Farm products are prepared for mar ked in the houses of about one-half of the families in the Northeastern, North Central and Western States, and one-third of those in the South, generally in the kit.’hen or basement. First-Hand Knowledge General eiseniiower has told his friends that he believes the trip he made to Korea and the Far East was a great help to him. The trip probably helped Eisen hower more than it did prospects for an im mediate cease-fire, but in the end the two amount to the same thing. Ike returned with no formula for sud denly ending the war, although he is go ing to try to do just that. He has said that he sincerely believes that the final solution of the Korean thorn was speeded by his trip—and this may well be true, in view of the added knowledge and information gain ed by the man who must direct the national effort in Korea for the next four years. The progress of every community de pends upon public-spirited, unselfish lead ership. i'nfort unately the world is not interest ed in your good excuses for not doing; any t hing. Most people are quick to listen to, and believe, gossip, unfortunately. Only about 80.000. or 85,000 people will be killed on highways this year. The churches remain our most beneficial organizations, despite any complaint that they are imperfect. It never pays to tell other people now to live their lives; if they don’t have as much sense as you do they won’t take your advice and if thov do, they, don’t need it. _'_ I Never take yourself seriously. The I world is too vast. Life would tie a lot simpler without so many organizers.

Whitaker Babson Discusses WEATHER Babson Park, Mass. —- During my recent trip through the Cen tral West I heard much complaint ciue to the drought. Some sections of Kansas. Oklahoma and Texas have not had a drop of beneficial rain for six months. EFFECTS OF DROUGHT Good pasture and good crops need sunshine and lain, as well as good soil and cultivation. Especially. without sufficient lain, the crops fail. This, in turn, means less feed for the cattle, j hogs and other livestock, forcing them to market at lower prices. Furthermore, the long e r a drought lasts, the more serious are the results. ■ Hence everyone is asking: I' How long will the drought last'.1" • Statistics indicate that no one I can answer with certainty. Some I droughts last only, six months: j others have lasted three years. ; Due to the many recent fat years .which the Central West lias en ; ioyed. it is logical that a drought ' is now due and that it may last ! longer than we all hope. Certain ly. our new President cannot j make clouds: even scientists ean , not make lam when there are no clouds. CHANGING (TIM ATE AND TEMPERATURE Businessmen are not only .catching the rainfall for lack of it', but also the temperature. Whether traveling in the United States or Canada, people tell me that both the winteis and sum mers are getting warmer. This is true with the exception of Florida, and more rain. Believing the above is a permanent change. ; some investment counselors are l advising their clients to sell out ! their fuel oil businesses, woolen factories and even certain stores - -but to re-invest in air condi tioning. synthetic Iibies and soft drink stocks! While in Gloucester. Mass., last summer. I found the fishermen much disturbed because the fish had gone farther north and forced the vessels to go much farther to fish. This, they claim, is one reason for the higher price of fish. In some places—-off the coast of California—the fish have left altogether and scores of great canning plants are idie. Also, fish which heretofore were found only in southern waters are now being caught off New England. WHAT ARE THE FACTS? Without doubt the temperature of certain portions of the ocenn Has increased. This, however, does i.ot justify the common belief that this change of warmer weather will be permanent. It is true that the meal' temperature of the United States and Canada and adjoining waters has increas ed 3 during the past 100 years. But this is nothing for us now to get excited about. This 3° is not llie cause of fish going north, nor a cause for you to change your business. The changes in temperature from year to year which you. the cattle and the fish recognize are due to the changing winds. What causes these changes in the direc tion of prevailing winds is debat able. It may be sunspots, but I believe Gravity is the basic cause of the warm winds blowing over the Northern Hemisphere. The lact that more cold winds are. at the same time, blowing over the Southern Hemisphere should in terest every farmer in the study cf Gravity. In the meantime, don't believe (hat v.-e will not have more early frosts. .Il'SUS AS A WEATHER PROPHET When discussing the winds with n famous weather expert, lie refen d me to Jesus's comments i.n the winds of 2000 years ago. In the Eighth Verse of the Third Chapter of St. John we find Jesus saying: "The wind bloweth where it will and thou hearest its sound, but dost thou know from where it comes"—or a better translation is "why it comes." Jesus discouraged ilis followers from depending upon the weather or other material things, urging them to “be born again”—this time to be born "of the Spirit.” This surely is the advice America needs today. Only by a spiritual rebirth can we forge ahead—as did the" founders of our nation— ! irrespective of weather, stock markets, businesses or even for eign nations. Double Check The New-NEW Administration in Washington is sain to outdo all previous advertising campaigns (‘veil Proctoi and Gamble are pushed back g*f the side line! Most spectacular is the personnel writeup—it s .going to be a job just living up to tlie advertise ment.

Yours, J Marvin Brown i V A Announces Lower Disability Income Rider on XSLI The Veterans Administration has announced a 1 eduction m premium rates charged for total I disability income rider on five year term National Service Life Insurahce policies. This benefit provides monthly ; income for the insuied nnd con tinues his insurance in effect without the payment of premiums for so long a period as the insured 1 is totally disabled. At some ages the reduction in the charge for total disability in tome coverage is more than 50 per cent. The reduction resulted from a new method of computa tion put in effect following Con gressional action providing in definite renewal privileges for term policies. The new rates are on a gradu ated scale, becoming increasingly higher with each renewal <as the insured grows older), but they are not as great as the previous rates until the insured reaches the age of 55. That is the last renew** in which the policy can carry the total disability income feature, as this rider becomes inopeartive at age 60. A comparison of the old and new annual rates per $1,000 of in surance for the total disability income rider are: Age Old Rate New Rate 30 $ 3.55 $ 1.07 35 4 44 1 42 40 4 38 2.01 45 5.56 3.31 50 7.10 5.56 55 9.12 9.12 56 9.59 9.59 57 10.06 10.06 58 10.54 10.54 59 11.13 11.13 Any holder of a participating plan of National Service Life In- , surance may have this provision added to his policy by passing a physical examination and paying the additional premium. NEWMAN CHEVROLET SALES CO. Second & South Streets FARMVILLE. VA. 1 1952’s,Extremes Expected To Shave Ten Cents of Net Farm Income Dollar Tlie year 1952 rail lo extremes for the Virginia farmer, the aver- j age at the center probably sliav- ' ing 10 cents from each dollar of net income, the Stall Department of Agriculture figures. Virginia’s traditional diversit> brought di verse fortune to individual farms, bui saved the overall agricultural economy. On meat animal... the fair haired children of Southern agri culture. farmers took their first shellacing since the war. Poultry forged ahead to become the num ber one source of income, but turkey growers, who have doubled their bird numbers twice in three years, took a beating from the law of supply and demand. Cash crops recovered remark ably or beliefitted in price from a summer drought anci racked up a 5 per cent increase in total value. Potato and apple income nearly doubled. Drought Hits Corn But a dry July took one fourth of the state's corn crop to put a $18,000,000 dent in total crop value and blacken the feed pic ture for livestock. Cotton yielded neatly a bale to the acre, small grains made near record yields an ' peanuts made a phenominal 1.800 pounds to the acre average, but corn, potato and some commercial vegetable yields skidded badly. Cattle, sheep and itog growers were caught between a 10 to 15 per cent [trice drop and heavy ex tra costs from drought-shrivelled pastures and soaring hay prices Cattle marketings were up 5 per cent over 1951, but as the build-up of the last few years moved to market the price plum meted. from a drop of $2 a hun dred in July to $9 a hundred, or 25 [ter cent, in Decembei. Calves did a little better. About half the calf crop was marketed m the first six months of the year when prices were a little above 1951. but a 15 per cent price drop m the last half of the year can celled this out and mote. Even with higher marketings, total value of eat tie and calves was down $4,000,000 from the year before, with the loss to •armors multiplied by lower gains on dry pastures and high feed prices. Hog growers took their big licking on the Spring market, w hen 00 per cent of the hogs were sold and the price was off 15 per pent Two or three per cent more hogs were sold in 191)2, but total value was down 10 per cent. Re acting to the market and to the shortage of farm corn, growers indicated they had cut the 1952 fall pig crop by 4 per cent and were planning to cut then- spring crop 22 per cent. Sheep ran into a 12 per cent price drop, but highet marketings kept total value close to last year's $4,800,000. although as with all animals, costs were much higher. ■ ' i FARM LOANS Protect 51>o future of your farm by financing with a Land Rank Loan • LONG TERM • LOW INTEREST Never comes due all at once.

I OF FARMVILLE Main Street Phone 488 Meat Animal Totals In round figures, all meat ani mals marketed this year were worth a gross of $111,000,000. compared to $120,000,000 last year. With increased production, poultry moved up from Sd 15.000 - 000 to almost $120,000,000 in gross income, but in this small margin industry, price drops put many growers in the red. About the same number of eggs went to market, but the ^jrice was off 11 per cent, cutting gross income by about $0,000,000. Chickens, mostly commercial broilers, showed a 5 per cent m "crease in marketings and a year end rise brought a 3 per cent in crease in price, adding about $4 000.000 to total gross income. About 55 per cent more turkeys went to market, and ran into a 11 per cent price drop. Although gross income was up about $6 000,000. very few turkey growers made money. Biown pastures in summer cut overall milk marketing slightly, but the price advanced nearly G per cent to lift dairy products into third place in gross income, with $100,000,000. The cost of maintaining high class feed for dairy cows, however, cut heavily into the $3,000,000 additional gross over last year. Although the individual live stock farmer would hardly be impressed, increases in poultry and milk brought ^ross income from livestock and their products to about $330,000,000. $3,000,000 under last year. 'ro''acco Recovers For crops, the pictuie was dif ferent. Production was down G per cent,because of the lost corn, but net income proLaoly will be up. Cash corn counties were not. as hard hit by the drought, so that most of the coin loss was shifted to livestock farmers who fed it. For most other cash crops, i hr drought either came at an ideal tune in their grow ins cycle or caused national shot tact's which were more than compensated tor in price. 'tobacco, which looked like a one-third loss in July recovered remarkably to make the largest crop on record and .1 cash value only a fraction under last years $92,300,000. Apples were favored with pro duction. quality and price, and total value jumped from $11. 000.000 last year to nearly $21. 000.000 The heat that burned the corn was ideal lor harvesting small grains, and these crops held tin-s own or returned farmer: a little more than last yeai. Vepctatilt' < rops Potato and vegetable growers had a good year after several lean ones, following the usual cycle of these crops. The Virginia potato crop was small, but so was the nations, and the crop value in Virginia jumped from $8,700,000 to $l4,0(lt).000. Sweet potatoes held their own in total value with $5,700,000. . Fresh tomatoes hit a price more than twice last years. With 40 per cent more fresh tomatoes to sell, farmer's made a gross Hits year of over $11.000.000 compared to SHOO.000 last year. r\t sr \i. \<< im:\ r Syracuse.

March of Dimes To Run for Month In Powhatan County The annual March of Dimes to raise funds to combat polio will be conducted in Powhatan coun ty the entire month of January. Mrs. Betty H Davies, chairman, lias announced. This decision, made on a na tional level, was forced by the record load of cases needing help, and the expense if carrying the research fight against polio. Of the more than 56.000 per sons treated for polio in 1952. ap proximately 44.000 were nssisted in whole or m part by the March oi Dimes. rieici tnais to test me enec tiveness of a possible preventive of paralytic polio were under writ ten by the National Founda tion for Infantile Paralysis in addition to other vital research projects. Some 55.000 youngsters look part in the trials. Basil O'Connor, president of the National Foundation, declares: We must not falter now. With victory delicately poised in the balance against unprecedented problems, we must throw our weight on the side of the polio lighters regardless of the cost. We must contribute more devotion, more energy and more money than ever before to the 1953 March of Dimes." Half of all money contributed to the March of Dimes is used by our county chapter to help pay cost of treating local polio pa tients or, iti emergencies, polio patients elsewhere. The other 50 per cent finances March of Dimes research, professional educalfcion and epidemic aid programs. Luke, author of a book in the New Testament, was a physician.

New Occupation Handbook Traces Employ merit Prospects for \ eterans The employment outlook in t)ie aircraft industiy is distinctly b'ivdv.., Veterans Administration sa d. In • spx'cia! supt•le'meint to ’,..1 Oc citp,ti iuiati uuuuuK I -ul id - book, prepared for VA by the U. S. Department ol Labor, the agency said nearly 300,000 more workers will be needed in the air craft industry in the period be tween March. 1 dad and the firs’ three months of 1954. to take care of new operations and to sliced up output in existing plants. The occupational outlook in formation. currently revised, is used by Veterans Administration incounseling disabled veterans, to assist them in deciding upon training goals which are best adapted to their individual talents and abilities. Total aircraft production, this report showed, may jump from a recent figure of 586.000 to around 875.000 by the first quarter of 1954. It is expected that aircraft manufajeturers during 1953 will have a heavy recruitment cam paign for engineers and other .... d workers. Then will not be a shortage of semi-skilled and unskilled workers, although a continued shoitage of all aircraft workers is foreseen in a few critical employment spots in Con necticut. Kansas and California. In addition to engineers, a sharp demand is p'edicted for metallurgists, mathematicians and chemists, according to this VA report. Among semi-professional workers most urgently needed by plane manufacturers are drafts men. engineering aides and elec tronic technicians. There is a constant demand for such skilled workers as tool and die makers. ,iig and fixture makers, machinists, aircraft me chanics, machine tool operators and sheet metal workers.
