Rappahannock News, May 4, 1950

THURSDAY, MAY 4, 1950 $2.00 Per Year Engineer and Board Plan Road Improvement J. E. Johnson, resident highway engineer, was present at the board meeting Wednesday morning, May 3, following the requirement of annual consultation between the highway department and supervisors and citizens. Roads and bridges listed for improvements include the following: Part of Route 600, north of Sperryville; Route -621 from near Woodville to the F.T. road at Buckners Corner; Route 658, 1V4 miles off 618 about 1 mile from W'oodville; Routes 618 and 649 from near Laurel Mills to near Estes; Route 611 about 1 mile, and Route 643 near Amissville; Route 630 west of 522 near Hittie’s Run, and part of Route 637 east of 522, poining 522 near Hit-tle’s Run; Route .634 at Chester Gap; Route 620 about 114 miles east of Five Forks in Hampton district. Bridges scheduled for repair include: on Route 614 north of Smedley; on Route 621 north of Five Forks; on Route 615 over Biackwater Creek; on Route “633 over Battle Creek; and on Route 626 at Rock Mills. If funds are available, the following road im« provements are scheduled: Route 622 from 625 through Harris Hollow to where 614 joins, north of Smedley; Route 707 from F. T. oad to Madison line; Route 626 from Rock Mills north to intersection of Route 627; and Route 605, .7 mile at Slate Mills. In the public discussion on needed road improvements) many citizens were present explaining the situations of road conditions and requesting repairs. “Big Charlie’.’ Jenkins was most frank in starting that as long as the road was good as far as his gate, it didn’t matter about the rest. E. M. Jones refrained from duplicating “Big Charlie’s” opinion, on the Fodderstaek road, for Mr. Jones said he sometimes traveled the road beyond his gate. Engineer Johnson explained that the requests made by the board were of foremost consideration and that such requests were followed insofar as funds and priority made it, possible. He quoted General Anderson in stating that the department of highways desired to have every road passable and that everyone should be able to use the roads the year-round. An order ‘was issued to obtain the tax re-assessment aide from Richmond. There was discussion of two items of Courthouse care; namely, screens for the windows in the courtroom, and removal of -a haiard at the front step of the building:. Routine bills were examined and allowed. Following special request and much persuasion, W. C. Campbell donated his artistic creations— sometimes referred to as “doodling”—to the county newspaper. The masterpiece, created during the hours of the board meeting, now hangs on the wall in the News office. The public is invited. Incomplete Census Report Shows Decrease According to the census report of Saturday, April 29, there had been 5,215 persons enumerated in the county. It is estimated that few have been omitted and the census may not be much more than this fgure. In Hampton district there were 1458, with 245 of these in Washington, the county seat. In Hawthorne district, 25; Jackson, 938; Piedmont, 1008; Stonewall, 420; and Wakefield, 1365. Piedmont district was the first to be completed, and the workers are hoping to complete the remainder by the first part of next week. Co-operation of the public will be appreciated; if you have not been visited by the enumerator, or if you know of anyone who has been omitted, please notify the crew leader, Charles B. Wood at Flint Hill. Washington Motors Opened Monday Washington Motors, previously known as Walker Implement Co., opened for business on Monday, under the management of Luther Payne, of Washington, and his brother-in-law, Melvin Moore of Falls Church. Texaco gasoline is being sold and repair work is being done on cars. A full line of automobile supplies will be in stock and the proprietors are expecting to" obtain a car dealership in the near future. Mr. Moore has one daughter, Miss Martha Mae Moore of Falls Church,- who with her parents, has visited Relatives in the county frequently. 1950 Corn War Underway “Virginia started this thing, and I’m determined that we are the ones who will end it. Anyway, growing all the corn we can on one acre is something we ought to be doing.’’ That’s the challenge from North Carolina’s Governor W. Kerr Scott to Virginia's corn growers this year. The challenge was accepted by Virginia’s Governor Battle, and the 1950 corn war is on, with Dr. Paul Sanders, editor of The Southern Planter in Richmond, as the State corn committee chairman. At VPI, Extension Agronomist P. H. DeHart has this to say: “A 50-bushel corn yield in 1950 should be the goal on every' Virginia farm. The State yield in 1949 was 47 bushels per acre—a record yield—'but it still means there are lots of acres of corn in Virginia that produce less than 50 bushels. ’ “Our goal last year was a 10bushel increase on every farm. The final result was an increase of only 4 bushels in the average state yield. This was an excellent record and Virginia farmers are to be congratulated. But let’s not rest on o>ur laurels and let the Tarheels win in 1950. “If you are producing 75 to 125 bushels of corn to the acre, and know it pays, why not do a little missionary work in your neighborhood and talk to those who are making low yields—get them to adopt? the slogan of ‘50bushel yield in 1950.’ “Higher yields will mean less land plowed, less labor, lower feed costs, and a large acreage of land released for usp in pasture and hay. Corn yields in Virginia have increased 14 bushels per acre during the last 15 years. Let’s keep up'the good work—and beat North Carolina again this year.” Way Day—Health Day Program A* Sperryrille The May Day-Health Day Program of Sperryville High School will be held in the auditdfium tomorrow, Friday, May 5, at 1:30 p.m. The public is cordially invited and there is no admission charge. Much time and effort have been put into the program and those in charge are assured tha* the May Day will be prettier than usual this year. Rev. F. S. Carter Begins Baptist Pastorate Rev. Felton S. Carter, pastor of WoodvMo br4 M4r—Lebanon— Baptist churches, will be at Woodville Sunday, May 7, for the morning worship service and at Mt. Lebanon for the evening worship service at 8 o’clock.

Cub Pack 'Meetings At Sperryrille May 8 and 19 The Cub Pack will meet May 8 and May 19 at 7:45 in the evening in the basement of Reynolds Memorial Baptist church, Sperryville. Cubbing is the program of the Boy Scouts of America for boys 8, 9, and 10 years of age. Here is the chance for that boy who has always wanted to be old enough to join the boy scouts. Experience has shown that the best Cub Packs are those in which parents (both father and mother) receive complete inf rmation before a Cub Pack is started. Parents are invited to attend and thereby show interest and give encouragement to the boys.

Four wrecked automobiles were towed in by the Merrill Motor Co., during the past week, having been wrecked by the dense fog, which obstructed their view. One wreck was brought in Saturday night, two wrecks Sunday, and one car was wrecked Tuesday morning. Some of the occupants of the cars escaped unhurt, while several were taken to the hospital. One of the wrecks, occurring Saturday night was a 1941 Dodge, which turned over near Hackley’3 Store, at Amissville, haring five colored passengers in it. The brother of Forest Huffman of Madison, owner of the car, was taken to the Physicians’ Hospital in Warrenton the night of the wreck, and on Monday he was moved to University Hospital, Charlottesville. Sunday afternoon a 1947 Oldsmobile sedan owned by John Allbright of Washington, D. C., had a collision with a Ford pick-up on the Luray mountain. The occupants of the cars were taken to the Luray hospital. A 1949 Chevrolet ran into the bank a mile below Ben Venue on Sunday evening. No one was injured. The automobile wrfecked Tuesday riiorninfe Was a 1948 Kaiser, /rom Stanley, which ran off the road through the guard rails on top of the Luray mountain. The occupants in the car were n9t injured. The extent of injuries to the victims of these wrecks is unknown, but according to the latest report they are recovering. . The greatest damage done to the vehicles was that the front end of each one was badly smashed.

Automobile Inspection Started This Week More than 1900 inspection stations and 8000 certified mechanics await 850,000 motorists for the semi-annual motor vehicle inspection period which will continue through June 15, was the. announcement of Col. C. W. Woodson, Jr., Superintendent of State Poliee and Executive Chairman of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee. Colonel Woodson stated emphatically that there can be no extension of the deadline date and urged motorists to visit 4he stations of their choice as soon as possible to avoid last-minute congestion and temporary exclusion of their vehicles from the roads pending inspection. in order that the public may have the best service available. Colonel Woodson pointed out, approved stations must have established reputations, sufficient and prescribed equipment and must be promary repair shops. Mechanics who perform inspection work also must be approved by the State Police and must undergo a training period of lectures and visual aids. The number of approved stations in a community is held to' a reasonable minimum in order that the Department of State Police may render maximo-m supervision and assistance. Stations not meeting qualifications, he said, are rejected and this figure runs to about 20 per cent of total applications. Any irregularities or complaints are carefully investigated, and if sub^ stantiated, inspection privileges are suspended as were those of 36 stations during 1949. In asking public co-operation. Colonel Woodson stated further that no one is under obligation te accept the repair estimate of a particular station, but can request a rejection sticker which will enable the owner to. take his vehicle to any station of his choice, whether approved or not, but after repairs are effected the vehicle must pass an official inspection. Owners are requested to report any obvious unfairness, discourtesy or inefficiency on the part of stations or mechai-ics and a careful investigation is promised. However, Colonel Woodson asked that it be borne in mind that in any business work estimates will vary considerably. This program, according to Colonel Woodson, provides one certain means whereby a particular type of accident can be prevented. Each driver, he said, is not always at fault in an accident, but there can be no excuse for driving an unsafe car whteir is-a menace-netonly to the operator, but to other people. The value of preventive maintenance is reflected in national figures which showed vehicles in need of repair to have participated in 13 per cent of 1943’s fatal accidents. For Virginia, the comparable figure was 7.8. In closing, Colonel Woodson recommended strongly voluntary inspection between official periods as the cheapest and most effective type of accident insurance available. V.F.W. AuxiliaryOfficers Installed Monday The Ladies Auxiliary to the V.F.W. met at the auxiliary room in Sperryville Monday, May 1, at 8 p.m. The following new officers were installed: President, Mrs. Frances Thornton; \ice-president, Mrs. Eleanor Brown, Jr.; vicepresident, Mrs. J.

Local Committeemen Attend PMA Convention H. S. Barksdale, John A. Tapp, Earl R. Yancey, and T. M. Johnston were among the 400 com-* mitteemen, representing 99 agricultural counties of Virginia, at r the convention of the annual State Production and Marketing Administration in Richmond April 27 and 28. Confidence in the soundness of the price support program for agliculture was expressed by Dr. Paul D. Sanders, master of the state Grange and editor of the Southern Planter. In his address, at the convention at Hotel Richmond, Dr. Sanders said critics of the Federal farm program “are rendering a disservice” by their attitude. “The cost to the taxpayer of the farm price support program is a small pric^ indeed with which to buy off a depression. Empty pocketbooks on the farm do not tern wheels of industry in the city.” Dr. Sanders declared. The editor admitted that agriculture faces "a serious situation” so far as public relations are concerned. He said he could not recall a time when newspapers and other publications were so critical of agriculture. However, he warned that farmers must not “price themselves* out of the world market.’’ If this is done, American agriculture will invite competition from cheaper foreign commodities and bring about the erection of tariff wall* which will prove a boomerang to our foreign trade, he continued. Dr. Sanders said the depression of the early 1330’s was “farmbred” due to low agricultural income throughout the ’20’s. This could happen again, he said, if farm purchasing power is not maintained. On the agenda for the convention were discussions of agricultural legislation now before Congress, plans for handling crops no wunder price supports, and the current pastiuTe program in its relation to reduction of acreage in row crops under federal control laws. Starter Solution Useful On Vegetables Why not give your vegetable plants a “shot in the arm” by using a starter solution when you set them out? L. C. Beamer, vegetabl gardening socialist at V P I, says a starter solution on transplants will help them get started toward a healthy and productive life. _The starten solution should ha_ ia liquid form. You may be able to buy a special fertiliser that has been manufactured for this purpose. On'the container you’ll find directions on how to mix it with water and how much to use per plant. If your local dealer doe* not have any of these commercial materials you can make your own. Home-made starter solution can be made by mixing one cupful (Vr pint) of good garden fertilizer in 12 quarts of water? Stir the mixture well and let it set for a few hours, and then it is ready to use. ' After you dig the hole, for the plant, pour in one cupful of the starter solution. Then set the plant, fill in the soil, and firm gently. Beamer says that in dry, cold weather the solution may not give results, but other wise It is very satisfactory.

Subscription:_$2.00 a year Old Age Assistance And Old Age Insurance By Mri. Elizabeth Buntin Today I should like to say something about the old age insurance program set up by the Social Security Act of 1935. I am indebted for much of this material to Mr. William L. Painter, who wrote an excellent article on the subject in “Virginia Public Welfare” for June, 1949. Basically there is no difference between Old Age Assistance, which is administered by the local welfare departments, and Old Age and Survivor’s Insurance, which is handled through the Social Security Administration offices. Both programs have the same bask purpose—that of providing financial eecurity for aged people. But while Old Age Insurance payments are based on financial need. While there is little or no criticism of the OASI program, there is much criticism about OAA. This criticism seems to boil dohvn to the feeling that OASI is earned, while OAA is not. Now it is true that tne amount of the payments in OASI is based on credits computed by a formula based on length of employment and amount of wages in the types of industries covered by OASI. And the money used for the pensions is built up by contributions by both the employers and the employees. A certain amount of the worker’s pay is withheld. But these contributions do not cause the worker any sacrifice, because his wages are large enough to take care of his family's needs even after the social security tax has been withheld. Actually it is the public who contributes most to this OASI plan, because the employer^ and employee’s contributions are reflected in the purchase price of goods and services; in other words, they Charge enough so that the money they have to pay out doesn’t hurt them; the public really pays the bill. In spite of the fact that the consumer, who is also the taxpayer, pays the bill for the OASI benefits, i mi i in mil liiiMlim n» Hi 11 ill ill 11 in mini mu mi nun in mi i mi inn Time’s A-WASTED j 'Til You’ve TASTED ; ROYAL Softwist BREAD I At Your Grocery Today i Royal Baking Co. I Front Royal, Va. this type of protection for the aged is far more popular than help for the aged through public assistance. While there will alwayE be some need for public welfare assistance, students of the problem hope that OASI benefits will be extended to other occupations than are now covered. The principal groups now without benefit of OASI are the self-employed, domestics, farm laborers, employees of religious and charitable institutions, and pjblic employees. We recognize the tact that John Q. would rather pay the bill as a consumer than as a taxpayer, but while we favor one system, we can also recognize that one program is as important as the other and that both programs are basically identical. This basic identity between the two types of programs may be illustrated by a case history. There were two brothers, Josephus and Daniel, whose father was a farmer. Now the father owned a few acres of land of rather poor quality. In addition to tilling his land, he secured day work from time to time to supplement his income from the farm in order that he might provide more adequately for his wife, three daughters, and .two sons. In due course,’the elder son, Joseph'-.s, left home and secured employment in the city some miles distant. The girls also departed their father’s household for employment or marriage or both, until eventually only the youngest child, Daniel, was left at home. He helped his father cultivate the family farm and, like his father, also secured day work in rush seasons on nearby farms. The father died when Daniel was approximately 20 years of age. Daniel did not take unto himself a helpmeet, but continued to live on the farm with his mother. After the passage of fifteen or twenty years the mother fell ill and became a semi-invalid, whereupon one of the sisters, whose husband had died and who had no children, returned home to help take care of her. Daniel then became the support of an invalid mother and a sister. The brother and sisters who lived ojtside the home and had families of their own made occasional but not substantial contributions to the care of their mother during this period. After six or seven years of invalidism, the mother diei^, leaving Daniel and the widowed sister in the household. The sister is now seventy years of age and Daniel, who is sixtyfour, is suffering somewhat prematurely from the ravages of age and will not much longer be able to support fully his sister and himself. The brother, Josephus, now well past seventy years of age, was retired a few years ago. His retirement income consists of benefits from old age and survivors insurance, ^nder the Social Security Act, artd from a*company-sponsored retirement plan. Jndicat;ons are that within a —year—e-y—Wth—Da n tel and hir sister will be dependent on old age assistance for their minimum subsistence- requirements over and above the support they can provide for themselves through limited gardening activities and the raising of a few chickens. May it be argued that Daniel is less entitled to minimum security in his old age than is his brother, Josephus? Perhaps so, but such a position can hardly be supported on the basis of industry, thrift, morality, or logic. Paraphrasing a ditty of a generation ago, Old Age Security has two sons And these two sons are brothers, OAS1 is the name of one, OAA is the other’s.

It could be said Rappahannock will have a bad case of “swell head’’ with this news following fast upon the records of Newbill .Miller and Bobby Atkins at the Chatlottesville Baby Beef Show. Let’s amend the “swell head” by saying it is pleasant to know that Rappahannock’s true value is becoming obvious to more people. There are occasions when justice descends upon a smart-aleck. A gentleman was passing along the street in a neighboring town. He saw a tall, red headed woman looking in the window of a shoe store. He spoke'quietly to the back of her head: “No use your looking at those sample shoeB, your feet are too big.” Whereupon the lady turned around—and he had never laid eyes on her before in his life! I never heard a story I enjoyed more. Let this be a warning to you, sii; all tall redheaded women may not be the one you know. ¥ ¥ ¥ The story is told that a Russian visiting in Virginia some years ' ago made the statement that she couldn’t understand why anyone ■would want to go to Europe for a view of the scenery. It was her opinion that nowhere could be found a land^as beautiful as that of Virginia. Take a ride anywhere in Rappahannock county and you will agree with the lady. There seem to be more dogwoods on the Amissville road than before, or else the blooms are larger and whiter. The pink dogwoods are deeper in color. Redbud trees have more blooms and the hues are almost purple. A trip through the famous F.T. Valley will ride you through an apple orchard near Belle Meade school—a sight you should remember for many a day. In fact, you won’t have to pick any special spot in Rappahannock for extra beauty—right now it’s all over the county, every mountain and hollow. ¥ ¥ ¥ After weeks of no-rain, we got it. If ‘‘April showers bring May flowers”, it now appears there will be an abundance of water-lilies in June. ¥ ¥ ¥ He was in his aunt's wedding— with a very responsible assignment—and he assumed the demands of the occasion writh all the seriousness of his five year*. His first idea, when he was told Income Tax Total Paid By Farmers Up Sharply An indication that the rising cost of Government and its accompanying tax burden have spared no segment of the economy is given in U.S. Department of Agriculture figures on Federal income taxes paid by farmers in recent years. These fi|-ures sho wthat in 1941 the aggregate of such taxes paid by farmers was only $15 millions. The estimated figure for 1943 is $791 millions. The peak was in 1948 when the nation’s farmers paid nearly a billion dollars in Federal income taxes. Between 1941 and 1948, inclusive, net farm income rose from $9 to $22 billions.

He was finally convinced that most people who attended a wedding knew what the ribbons meant. Then he decided that it would be a good idea to pass the hat. Some folks suspect that his uncle had put him up to that. Well, the wedding came off. (He didn’t pass the hat). But he refused to ride home, he had to walk by the homes of his playmates, so the kids could see him all dressed up and with that carnation. He modestly stated that he was “the sharpest looking thing there.’’ Maybe he inherited his modesty from his father.

Horntmaktri' Items Home-can the oil rags and- polishing cloths in your home, either ta quart jar or a metal can. 3 way you can protect the rest .he things in the closet against and odors that are in the hs. Storing dust cloths in cans ars also is a safety- precaution, because an accumulation of oily cloths can start a dangerous fire. Y Y Y Some fruits 'sink in gelatin— others float. The next time you make a gelatin salad or dessert, why not take advantage of this fact? First add the fruit that will sink, distributing the pieces "as evenly as possible. Canned apricots, cherries, peaches, pears, pineapple, plum-, raspberries fresh orange sections, grapes and cooked pm nes will sink to the bottom. Next add the fruits that will float. Apple cubes, banana slices, fresh peaches and pears, fresh strawberry halves, broken nut meats, and marshmallow^^ will float. Chill the dessert until it is firm. There will be two fruit layers with clear gelatin in between. Y Y Y These tips will help you save time and energy: Dip scissors in hot water to aid in cutting marshmallows. Rin<e egg beater in cold water immediately after using. Measure all ingredients before starting to mix a product. Scrub or scrape young vegetables instead of peeling. Many can be cooked in their skins. County News Notes Mr. and Mrs. George .Bennett and son, of Washington, D. C., spent Sunday with Mr. Bennett’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Bennett. Mr. and Mrs. B.

One problem though fought by countless generations through the ages is still unconquered. This problem is alcoholic drink. We often wonder why people drink—Perhaps it is an attempt to escape reality, to drown their disappointments and worries and temporarily forget their responsibilities; or maybe it’s the result of a desine to be with the crowd and not be tagged “chicken.” We are young—now is the time for us to seriously talk about this problem. We must realize that alcohol is not a refuge but an enemy. Don’t be buiifed into taking a drink by so-called friends. . . It’s not sissified, but merely good common sense to refuse. Though he won't admit it, he leally admires your self-control and resent his own weakness and lack of self-control. If only we could fathom the depths in Shakespeare’s quotation “Oh God, that man should put an enemy in their mouths to steal away their brain.” Mayo says “A man may live with a wooden leg but not with a wooden head. Each drink is lessening, not only the physical! Strength but also the mental capabilities. Although there may seem to be a crude glamor surrounding the young man taking his first drink, no one can cast any glamor on the drunkard—He too once took a first drink. Each day brings forth new opportunities, beckoning us anjd challenging us the mentally and Library New* By Lucy M.

Scott of Castletori, and an F.F.A. member of Wasli-. ington High School. Last week, he sold two porkers weighing 187 lbs. each, for the top price of $17.00 per hundred, bringing him $63.75. His expenses including feed, labor and sell‘ ing costs totaled $12.20. So you see he rea.ized a net profit of $21.55. This will come in handy at F.F.A. camp this summer, won’t it Marion? Edwin Scioggins and Harvey Smoot are doing a lot of talking about their purebred Berkshire sows these days. .» It seems that Harvey’s sow had one .more pig than Edwin’s, but Edwin claims his pigs are so much bigger. He says he has the best sow. " When they come to weaning time the scales will tell the difference. 16 of the FF.A. boys are eagerly looking forward to a week’s camping trip at the State F.F.A.

Dr. Pendleton Talks To High School Students On Friday morning at eleven o’clock Dr. Pendleton gave a most helpfi l and inspiring talk on the subject “What Is Life?” He brought out the various ideas people have on that subject. Some people look on life as a duty; when they'have done their duty that is all they care about. An* other group of people think of life as a probationary period. Dr. Pendleton's thought concerning life is that it is a succession of opportunities to be grasped and used. He poftited out that opportunities not taken when they are presented the first time seldom come again and when they do they are much more difficult to obtain. Much was gained from Dr. Pendleton’s talk and all are looking forward to hearing him again. 4<The Minister’s Aunt” The Glee Club is to present, a humorous play “The Ministers Aunt” on May 19.

RAPP - OHATS By: W. H. Lyne - ■ , , /, . , County Agent “Proud" just ain’t sufficient, however my puny vocabulary just doesn’t come forth with any better word to describe how I feel about Bobby Atkins and Newbill Miller; the job they have done since last October in feeding their baby beeves, the training they gave ’em before going to the show, and finally the good job they did throughout the Char lottesville Area Baby Beef Show and Sale. These boys put an average of about 1.86 lbs. gain per day on their calves even when the final weight iwas determined after the calves were hauled all the way to Charlottesville; now that’s not had for‘first timers’! Another reason lor us to be proud is that both of these calves were bred and born on Rappahannock farms, sold at public auction at our own Rappahannock Angus Breeder’s Feeder Calf Sale, both calves were bid on at the sale by Rappahannock people and one will return to Sperryville Locker Plant to be sold at cost to any Rappa'bannock person that would like some of this kind of beef all of us dream about, but only MEN can normally afford to buy. Yes ■Sir, the price of Baby Beef at our better eating houses is usually listed at a price that separates the MEN from the BOYS . . . But the retail price of this baby beef will be computed at cost with no profit figured in. To sum it all up, this represents another first when it comes to beef i— Rappahannock bred, bora, fed, slaughtered (at Shen Valley) processed, sold, bought, and to be consumed 1 ! ! ¥ ¥ ¥ Virginia graders—namely C.

SOUTHERN STATES Front Royal Service PImim Nl frail R«r«l ■ was estimated on foot. The baby beef produced by Bobby Atkins weighed 820 pounds and was estimated to dress 62.5 per cent or 612.5 lbs. in the carcass. After it was trucked back here and then to Shen-Valley, the liveweight was 785 lbs., the actual dressing percentage 64.75 per cent or 508.3 lbs. . . . thus, Mr. McClaugherty and company were off only 4.2 lbs. and no allowance was made for liver, brains (I mean the calves) or, tongue. All of which are good eating on anyone’s table. Congratulations Mr. McClaugherty — we feel you and your three helpers are on the ball, and know your business. « « * In all, the county of Albeiparle, Charlottesville Chamber of Commerce, and individual business concerns besides the 'Virginia Angus and Hereford Association put up around a cool thousand dollars for this show and sale, indicating their keen interest in our 4-H members and Future Fanners of America. _ * Sam Stickler, veteran corn grower and one of the beat seed producers in the State was by the office recently and gave us a bush* el of certified US 262, as well as a bushel of certified 111. 200 seed corn (both large flat) to be distributed among A-H boys carrying a corn project. Mr. Stickler’s corn had an official germination test of 96 per cent. However, just to make sure he doesn’t over-represent his product, he marked it down to 95 per cent.

Soil Saver Notes Irrigation of Ladino clover—? orchard grass pastures and alfalfa* hay is 'being considered on several farms in Culpeper county. An attempt is being made on the. farms of Melville Church, II, of Rixeyville and William J. Smith and Son of Culpeper, to determine the feasibility of such a project. The Sunset Engineering Co., of Riverdale, N.J., is conducting the survey^ and working in co-operation with the Culpeper Soil Conservation District on the various projects. The water supply is the first factor to be considered in determining the feasibility of irrigating any given area. The amount of land to be irrigated, the distance the area lies from the water supply and the height the •water must be lifted are all determining factors in designing the system. Increased interest is developing .in grass farming in Culpeper and Rappahannock counties. Soil Conservation Service technicians since 1941 have been assisting numerous farmers in developing complete farm plant including only grasses and legumes. .It has long been the psychology that a practical farm unit must include both corn and small grain. This theory has been blasted many, many times during the past five years, right here in the Culpeper Soil Conservation District. * A. G. Post of Lakota, wintered 200 ^steers on grass ensilage and corn cob meal. They received no bay or grain whatsoever. According to Mr. Post the animals gained approximately 100 lbs each, during the winter feeding. They were turned out on Ladino Cloved—Orchard Grass pasture about April 4.' The cob meal was fed mainly to keep the animals digestive systems in better condition. Mrs. William N.

Aged Man Needs Home A boarding home is needed far an elderly colored nian in',' the county. This is a plea for help jn find-, ing a home for Joe. Joe sits and stares out the window; the spring sunshine has little meaning for him this year. A month ago. he wps able to cook his own meals* to plant a few 'things in his. garden, to putter around the yard. Today he is nearly helpless; his legs are paralysed with age; he can scarcely move. If a friend or. two hadn’t brought him food once " or twice a day, he. would have .starved long ago. His only com*, _panion most of the time ,is a - battle-scarred cat. Joe welcomes someone, to talk with; he tells you about his long active life and admits that he made plenty of money in his day. Now h“ has nothing to shqw for it; he is 83, aa near as anybody can tell, and he has no kin people to care for him, no one at all who cares enough about him to take him in. Joe isn’t unique; there are other old people in his predicament. One reason welfare departments were established was to help people like Joe. But while ■? - they are given enough money to pay for boarding care, they need help in locating hemes which will take in old people. Some counties have district homes for the aged; this county must rely on.-private homes for such care. Wont, some colored family .feel it their Christian duty to look after this poor man in kwuleclining years? Won’t somebody a good Samaritan and give Joe a home? MT. MYJUA • Rev. J, D.
