Chiefs Err Way to Loss, 6-3 In a gtfme played under poor playing conditions at the Rappahannock High diamond, the Rappahannock Chiefs booted their way to another loss. All told, the locals muffed nine different opportunities and gave the visitors from [North Mountain a 6-3 victory. As las been the story in each game jo far, the Chiefs let the opposition take the lead, then tried unsuccessfully to gain .it back. Both pitchers were very effective throughout the game, limiting She opposition to 7 hits each. Junior Hawkins struck out 7 and Pitched well enough to win ’most times with good fielding behind |iim. Bailey, for North Mountain iras the winner, however, as he aowed down 15 Rappahannock atters, by the strike-out route. Only Buck Clater was able to >uch Bailey for more than one [it; he, connected for 2 singles, fhile only Smith followed Junior [or two, a single and double, the >nly extra base hit of the game.

Hall, pastor of the Covenant Presbyterian Church, Charlotte, N.C. Approximately 200 seniors will receive their reserve corps commissions in either the Army or Air Force at a regimental parade to be held at 1:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon, June 6. Most will go into active duty before By: W. H. Lyne County Agent 2 The True Army Worm is reported to be in action all over the state. One 10-12 acre field of corn in Rappahannock was completely ruined and another damaged. Crops in Culpeper and Madison counties have been damaged. . The following control measures are recommended: Mix 12 to 2 pints (8 pounds toxaphene to the gallon) of toxaphene emulsifiable concentrate or 2 to 4 pounds of 50% TDK wettable, or 50% E)DT wettable powder to 40-50 gallons water, and this amount applied to the acre using conventional type high-pressure, high gallonage sprayers. In weed-type sprayers (low-pressure, low -gallon* age) use only the emulsifiable concentrates of toxaphene, TDE, or DDT mixed with the appropriate amount of water. Most weed-type sprayers are calibrated to apply from 10 to 20 gallons to the score. Add the emulsifiable concentrate to the appropriate amount of water to give 12 to 2 lbs. of actual toxaphene or 1 to 2 pounds of actual TDE or DDT to the acre The army worm is greenish in color with dark stripes, nearly naked and Ji inches in length when full grown. Disking in making preparations for replanting fields to corn is felt to destroy most of the worms, however, in such a case the field border should be sprayed to inhabit reinfestation. It is time to begin “getting ready” for fall seeding of Alfalfa and pasture. Collect soil samples and bring them to the office to be sent off for chemical analysis. This will enable farmers to apply lime on the land ahead of time where the pH in the soil test will show the fertility level of these minerals is low. Buy certified Williamsburg, Buffalo, Atlantic, Kansas Common, or Oklahoma Common Alfalfa. * Mow pastures now to remove unpalatable tall grass and weeds. Also such is a must to insure longevity of stand particularly of Ladino—tall grass mixtures and to maintain good balance between grass and legume population. Sheepmen are urged to complete shearing operations as soon as possible doing so only when fleeces are dry. Pooling date will be around mid-June, either June 16 or 18. Watch for exact date and details in this column. Cattlemen are urged to complete dehorning and castrating their calves this month. Clamping an early calf in July seldom has him in acceptable condition for October Feeder Calf Sales. E.

If your water and plumbing system is properly planned, installed, and maintained, it will give you water, conveniences and sanitation when and where you need them. On the other .hand, improper planning may result (See RAPP-OHATS, page 8) AUXILIARY TO MEET A meeting of the Auxiliary of Trinity church will be held Wednesday, June 10, at 7:3 at the church. A full attendance is desired, and it is advised that every member attend. The fellow who isn’t present to protest usually gets the hardest jobs assigned to his committee. the summer ends. A faculty reception for the graduates, their parents, alumni, and friends will be held in Squires Hall at 7:30 o’clock Saturday evening, June 6. A dance will follow at 9 p.m. The following degree candidate is from Flint Hill. Bachelor of Science degree: James Robert Johnson, in forestry and wildlife conservation. ■„ -<i>f Storm Rips Through County; Damage Not Estimated Winds of tornado-fury accompanied a violent rain storm Saturday afternoon about 2:30, ripping trees to ribbons, and damaging a few buildings. A large barn at “Greenfield,'' home of Mrs. J. A. Lewis near Washington, was blown down, injuring a horse so badly that the veterinarian had to be called to put the animal out of its misery. With no record of wind velocity, the exact power is unknown, but orchards had limbs torn from trees and whole trees uprooted. An area about the town of Washington, another area near Amissville, and the town of Woodville seemed to be hardest hit, judging from the number and size of trees uprooted. Flint Hill had some wind damage, as did Sperryville, but not as much as the other areas; Estimates on damages to orchards have not been given. Some were torn in strips with entire trees uprooted, others had limbs torn off throughout the orchard. A large falling tree took down a light pole and transformer near the home of Mac Richards in Washington. Electric power was off in most sections of the county from about 2:30 to 7 o’clock that evening. Some areas of the county did not lose electric current at all. Telephones were out in many areas and service was not restored for some phones before Tuesday. Firemen’s Minstrel Show Postponed Indefinately Because of non-attendance for practice on scheduled dates (or lack of interest in staging a show) the proposed minstrel show for the three fire companies has been postponed indefinitely. The new Amissville VFD Hall will be the scene of a dance, with refreshments, at an early date, according to present plans. The postponed minstrel was scheduled as the occasion of opening the new hall. Prompt Control Advised Against Army Worm The current outbreak of army worm is rather serious but prompt use of proven control will keep damage within bounds the department of agriculture has informed Representative Burr P. Harrison. Mr. Harrison talked with officials of the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine in Washington, D. C. and with Dr. H. N. Young, director of Va. Extension at Blacksburg. After receiving report of work on the pest in sections of the 7th Congressional district, application of the proper insecticide as soon as the army worm is noticed is essential in preventing destruction of crops, Mr. Harrison said he was told. Approximately 1A lbs. of toxathene per acre or three to 5 lbs. of DDT per acre is an effective agent against army worms, according to department of agriculture. When the pest has invaded a field of standing small grain aerial spraying or dusting is recommended, although lower type applicator§ aimed from the edges can give reasonably good coverage of small fields. Orchard spraying equipment also could be brought into* use in an emergency, it was suggested. Careful spraying along the edges of corn or small grain usually will protect the crop from army worm if they are noticed before they have gotten into the crop, it was stated. Mr. Harrison said Dr. Young told him all County agents have information on control of this fast-moving pest and will advise farmers on spray materials and application technique. .. ; >■ ...w.c* X

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE 1- Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) —.— - $2.00 a year Help Is Ready In a concerted effort to show the people of the county that a. water system can be put into every home, a special committee of farm and health workers has collected information on installation of water systems. Figures showed that something like only 14 per cent of the homes in the county had pressure water systems. With the knowledge that it was possible for nearly everyone to have more home conveniences, the committee gathered fact£ and sent out requests for information. Most home owners said they wanted water systems in their homes, but the main obstacle was cost. Plans are continuing. Bill Lyne, county agent, has information on hand whereby families can get a set of instructions and do most of the work themselves, thereby knocking the cost element down to within reach of every budget. Another plan now is to find business men who install pumps and plumbing fixtures to inaugurate a pay-as-you-go plan for limited family budgets. The health department is considering sending teams of young training sanitation officers to come into the county and outline work for families to build their own sewage systems. This work will be part of the student officers’ training and will cost the family nothing. The committee that went to work on this problem of seeing that modern conveniences and modern health provisions could be given every home in the county deserve commendation. That’s not what they’re looking for, however; their goal is to see the farm family in the coutyprotected from infestation from improper sewage, and to see the farm family enjoy the comforts and conveniences of home water systems. The Fire House in Washington can’t possibly hold the 619 Repulican voters from last fall’s election. Either Washington or Sper-^ ryville packing house might do.

Of course, we’d all like to hear that each volunteer fire company in the county had just been given a fortune, but the story’s the other kind—it’s our neighbor who has the windfall! Culpeper Rescue Squad cleared nearly $6000 on their carnival last week-end. This volunteer group of public-spirited men will probably sneer when they hear this insinuation that the money was given them—for they worked like dogs to put on the carnival, and its success was due to their work. Rappahannock can rejoice with them, for we helped-—not a large amount, but every little bit counts. Amissville and Sperryville fire companies both had their trucks present for the parade. Firemen of both companies showed their spirit of good will and let everyone see that they were on the spot to help their neighbors in any way possible. The hre company from W asnington had a part, too. Members of the Rescue Squad in Culpeper asked to borrow the hand-crank siren to use in the parade. It was sent. There was some talk about the absence of the Washington company when the truck with the name on it failed to show people that neighboring Washington had good wishes for a successful carnival put on. This is not the first time such an absence has been noted against the Washington company.

(1) We don’t know everything that happens, to begin with. (2) Sometimes we are asked not to: “please don’t say we were in Waynesboro Friday; it was a rush business trip and some cousins will get their feelings hurt if they find out we were in town and didn’t go to see them.” (And other such and sundry reasons.) (3) It won’t fit. The pages of the paper are solong and so-wide. Exactly somany lines will print. If there are too many, some have to get left out.

The story is told of man’s mistakes: the doctor buries his; the lawyer sends his to jail; the merchant has a 98-cent sale; but the printers’ errors are there in black and white, and the poor old farmer’s'mistakes are lying out in the field, row on. row,, where every on p driving by can see them. It’s nice to be a printer in a farmer’s county; you are guaranteed sympathy and understanding. o o o Wasn’t it wonderful for the English people to have their magnificent - Coronation ceremony? They seemed to enjoy it so, that most of us rejoiced in their pleasure. I failed to receive any great elation; ’guess I’m too plain, every-day American to realize what the pomp and pageantry means to an Englishman. For a personal opinion, the speech of a Governor, one John Stewart Battle, televised about three o’clock in the* morning last summer was the kind of behavior from a public official that makes me feel a lack in a dressedup bit of pomp and ceremony. Washington D. C. As Viewed By Your Senator, A. Willis Robertson MORE INFORMATION NEEDED ON STRENGTH OF AIR FORCE The Subcommittee on Armed Services of the Senate Appropriations Committe invited Secretary of Defense Wilson to explain to it this week just how he plans to make our Air Force 30 per cent stronger while cutting its appropriation for the next year by more titan five billion dollars. Until there is time to study that explanation I am reserving judgment on the wisdom of the proposed cut, but there are certain facts already known which gives me concern. We know that plans for EDC and NATO land forces in Europe are far behind schedule and there is considerable doubt as to their ultimate strength. This makes it essential fotf us to have an Air Force which is the equal of the Russian force in fighting potential, if not m numbers. In the summer of 1945 we had 243 air groups. We now have 106 wings (a wing is approximately the equivalent in striking power of what used to be called group). It is generally believed that Russia has more jet planes than we, both fighters and bombers. In comparing our air strength now with what we previously had or with what Russia may have, however, we must, realize that the B-29, which was our principal bombing plane in the last world war is kinds of cold! © © © © . © for frozen food*, ice cream for frozen desserts, quick chilling humid for fresh meats for milk, general storage humid for fruits, vegetables for eggs and condiments keeps butter “spreadable" (Temperatures shown are for average conditions) Model L-105-D, $419.95 New 7-Climate Refrigerator by International Hamster It takes 7 different areas of cold—from 6° to 55°—to keep all foods in prime condition!

Can we, with the proposed reduction of Air Force appropriations sustain the necessary steady flow of production of planes able to hold their own against the best Russia can put in the air? 2. Is the ultimate goal of 120 instead of 143 wrings previously recommended by the Air Force adequate to meet the Russian threat o- are fiscal policies to be given priority over defense needs? If it should appear, when the picture is fully before us, that our air power under the new program would be measurably below that of Russia, my own preference would be to provide more funds for our air defense and cut-the amount proposed for a foreign land army in Europe. Otherwise, I fear we may spread our defenses both here and abroad so thin that neither will be effective. Decision of the Republican Policy Committee last week to strike Hawaiian Statehood and Taft-Hartley Act amendments from the list of legislation which “must” be acted on at this session greatly* increases the prospects of an -early summer adjournment. The objections to present Statehood for Hawaii including recent evidence of Communist infiltration and a reduction in the white ' population which already was down! to sixteen percent were bound to bediscussed at length in the Senate while the views of groups seeking to strengthen the Taft-Hartley Act and those seeking to weaken it are so far apart that they could neither be reconciled nor compromised without another long debate. With those two controversial items eliminated for this session, the major administrative bills would be the budget bills, a foreign aid bill, extension of the Reciprocal Trade Agreement Act for one year without change Bankers’ Meeting Held At Skyland A meeting of Group III of Virginia Bankers’ Association, met at Skyland, Saturday afternoon, May 23, with Harold G.

Speakers for the occasion were Carlyle Davis, vice-president of State ^Planters and Trust Co. of Richmond, and a bill to delay tax cuts, but even that limited program will consume another sixty days because all of the measures on it are controversial.

Not quite a third of *the farm homes in Rappahannock have this great convenience. And you just can’t modernize without first getting your water supply under pressure. It takes water under pressure before you can have a kitchen sink, a bath room and a modern home laundry. Do you know the average family without a sink spends about 240 hrs. per year to pump and carry 20-30 tons of water for kitchen use only. And when wash day rolls arc uni there is a lot more water to pump and carry. Enough water when and where you want it lightens the burden on washday. Running water is a must for modern home laundry. And don’t forget a bathroom. It contributes to comfort, cleanliness and health and is a great convenience. But to enjoy these modern home improvements you must first get your water supply under pressure. A satisfactory water system is the end product of careful planning. Common problems involved are the source of supply, and the capacity of the pump. Regardless of the source of water,. it should be pure, dependable and adequate. Protect your source so surface water cannot enter it. Make certain your supply is adequate. Installing a pump to weake source is a common mistake. When water is pumped by hand, you hardly use over 10 gallons per person per day. With modern plumbing these figures climb to 35 gallons a day for a person. Likewise water will be used by the poultry and livestock when it is available. When installing your system make certain it will supply both your present and future needs. Are you planning to join the 224 families in Rappahannock with satisfactory water systems in their homes in the near future?
