Fight Th« Japanese Beetle The number pounds of feed ane dozen eggs wjll buy (egg-jfeed ratio) decline from 12 last May to 7.2 pounds for May of this year. According to D. Upton Livermore, Poultry Madkeftmg Specialist, this is about as low as it is likely to get. Pullet numbers for layer replacements are expected to decline from last year, hence a better relationship should exist later in 1950. Mr. Livermore suggests further that you poultrymen do a good job of culling this summer and stay in the business. Periods like this have always been followed by a more profitable period as reflected by the (relationship between the price of feeds and eggs.

Funds Needed For County Nurse The drive for the county health nurse in on! Several substantial gifts have been promised, and with all donations it should be a matter of . . a few days before the sum of $500 is on hand to insure the health nurse for the county. The reason for the rush to collect the funds is that the fiscal year began July 1 and the nurse should have been appointed by that time. Her work should be in progress now. The services of the county nurse will be needed this month and next in helping with pre-school clinics and the many other duties of a county nurse. Call Miss Ruby Jenkins at the county agent’s office, Washington and notify her what your gift will be. She will tell you how 'the check should be made out, or how to make your contribution. The paper next week will carry a report on the progress of the campaign and how much has been raised.

Rappahannock News Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia. Subscription: .— $2.00 a year Freedom War is now raging in the East to stop a political philosophy— Communism. Communism is a way of life, a materialistic way of life. You can’t fight ideas with guns; you fight ideas with ideas. The war against communism can be won by supplanting this political philosophy with Christian faith. In every manner the Christian faith teaches the opposite to the teaching of communism: Christianity teaches the sacredness of human personality, because man is the creation of God, because Gfd gave Himself through Christ for man, and because God is just, holjr, merciful, a God of love— and'thus main should be. Christian faith is also an idea, an ideal. Some Christians reach the goal to a greater degree than others, and all sincere Christians try to reach the perfection of the ideal. One ideal of the Christian faith is freedom—political and religious. We in America have both and we realize the fight necessary to keep it. Vigilantly must freedom be guarded at home. At the present time our freedom is endangered by other agencies equally as threatening as communism. A threat to our freedom can be seen in the attitude of indifference toward graft, greed, and trickery in government; indifference toward moral decay; indifference to the cheapening of human life. Read the city papers and notice the borrow stories of crimes, many in varying forms of sadism. Read of the number of deaths over the July 4 holiday, and note the little concern of the public concerning the wholesale holiday slaughter. Human life appears to be cheapening in the public mind. A threat to our freedom gathers the same indifference in the question of America’s tradition of separation of church and state. The Bill of Rights was not in the Constitution at the time of adoption and a bill of rights was not in the early framework of the laws of this state. The early Baptist forefathers were among the strongest advocates of the idea of complete religious freedom, as was shown by letters from and to Washington, Madison, Jefferson, and others. Baptists of Virginia were advocates of religious freedom being the law of the land in both state and national governments, and through the years, the Baptists have waged a continuous struggle to maintain this separation of church and state. The Baptist strict adherence to religious freedom holds the full meaning, not just religious tolerance. They stood alone in opposing the idea (during the early formulating of laws in the state) that all religious societies should share alike from tax money, for they held that complete separation of church and state was the mily form of religious freedom. *^hey held then, and still hold today, that wherever the two are together the church becomes corrupted with the idea' df its being the supreme agency on earth, and loses its desire for men’s souls ai^d exists for the leaders’ sake; it becomes that the state is puppet for the church and political issues over-shadow the moral ones. There are struggles today in preservation of religious freedom. There is a struggle over parochial school children riding public school buses, government supported hot lunch programs, free text The answesr twill come with * these protests: need of schools; parochial schools mean fewer children attending public schools at government expense. If parochial school childi^n ride a government school bus, eat govt eminent lunches, use government free text books, and the church a* 4s then the government is contribut- . lng directly to the support of the church, and the Baptists are opposed to it. It violates the principle of freedom, the separation of church and state. Don’t be fooled “S by the clouding of the issues by 4 the bringing in of humanitarian issues. I . A second great threat to our freedom lies in materialism, the American’s ideal of living for the almighty dollar, the struggle to maintain a given standard of living even at the sacrifice of those things which ere our sure . gtrotection against communism. Materialism has gi own to the degree that we think in terms of security, security for old age, security daring sickness. All these are good, hut if security in the future waahsas the sens* af re~ | ‘The Time Hat Come * j tl»a Walrus said . « • g fillMtllNIMH «AwiMMINH With all the war and its accompanying Borrows, most of us are looking for any spots of sunshine possible in all the darkness. * * * To the unknown driver of Virginia license No. 748-328: it was my pleasure to drive behind you Tuesday on the road from Cul-* pcper to Warrenton. Thank you for the drive. You maintained a steady speed, not poking along to the exasperation of the one following you, nor etxceediiyg the speed limit. Carefully you followed a truck up a hill and passed it as soon as you could. The road was wet and you ^kept your distance safely from the car ahead. You observed all the rules of courtesy and careful driving. Not once did you cross the line from your side of the road, and you slowed down where signs cautioned you to do so. Thank you, again for the pleasant drive I had in the car behind you. ♦ * * An English magazine, “Housewife,” of a recent date carried this notation on books to be enjoyed by the ladies: “Fannie Farmer’s Boston Cook Book—is , to the American what Mrs. Beeton is to the English. Many of the recipes are extravagant, but the book contains much useful information.” What will those Epglish women think when they see the new edition of “Rappahannock Recipes,” with the calledfor butter, cream, sugar, and eggs? .* * # Some of the natives of Rappahannock can begin to be offended because they were not invited to the big ceremonies that took place in Jenkins Hollow* recently with the big bridge-opening exercises. A new resident of hte Hollow opened the rustic bridge on his place. The structure furnishes transportation across the creek from his residence to the guest house. The ceremonies included ribbon-cutting and movies recorded the event for posterity. Visitors are now permitted to cross the bridge, or stop and sit on it. Public notice is served to take effect as of this date: whenever anyone has formal ceremonies in the future—particularly in such events as bridge-openings, the citizens of Rappahannock feel that sponsibility for our own personal well-being at present and for the future, then that idea of security is false and a curse. Materialistic security can and will and has choked some of the personal liberties of the American people. They have asked for it. There seems to be a cry of “society, the government, owes me a living.” These and more are immediate dangers which threaten our freedom at home. Let us watch, and do our part. Freedom is a privilege. Once had, it must be watched and cared for always, or we lose It. It is possible to lose it—and not lose it to communism. It is up to the citizens, and we have the responsibility for maintaining our freedom. (The above is extracts from a sermon delivered by Rev. A. Paul Thompson at Reynolds Memorial Baptist church, Sunday, July 9. The responsive reading at the service was the Bill of Rights from the Constitution. The impressiveness of this patriotic service received much favorable comment.)

White, county supervisor of the Fanners Home Administration at Culpeper, serving the counties of Culpeper, Madison and Rappahannock, attended a conference in Richmond, June 6 to 27, to appraise past performances of the farmers home administration program in Virginia and plan for more efficient operations. State Director, R. O. Delane, in his opening remarks said, “We must train all empioyees to accomplish more with less effort.” It is doubtful that we will ever have many more workers, and it is probable that we will be required to do more jobs with about the same, personnel. Discussion apd studies pointed out that hundreds of the small family-t^pe farm operators are feeling the pinch of lowering they should be invited. If there’s any good, clean fun going on, we all like to be in on it. In fact, you can amend it to read, If ■ there is any fun afoot, count me in. * * * ' Mr. Lockett, the Collier’s man, was back in the county last week. He found his glasses. They were in the beauty parlor. It’s fair to tell on him. He was informed that for a price silence could be purchased, but he didn’t volunteer to bargain. Either Collier’s will have to pay him enough to buy his way out of these embarrassing circumstances, or else he must be more careful where he leaves his glasses. * * * A lady whose address is “Time and Life Buildinp, Rockefeller Center, New York” was flitting around the county last Sunday. She stopped in Harris Hollow, and it’s understood she saw Washington’s mayor-elect. Her father used to be at “Rockbottom”. and she has a bushel of kin-folk in a neighboring county. Tis understood the lady was issued a most cordial invitation to visit again in the county. * # They tell a story now from North Carolina whereby one fish is overheard saying to another fish in a contemptuous tone, “Did you hear about that dumb fish, Joe Smith? He got caught in Neal’s Creek . . .” This is just heresay, but maybe in their own way, fish which get cauzht in Neal’s Creek would be crestfallen if they knew the circumstances, for Neal’s Oeek, in the mountains of western North Carolina, is for ladies to fish in. Signs along the creek say, “Fishing — For Women Only.” It’s against the law for members of the male sex to fish there. Pshaw! The only thing that makes that story worth telling is that in the Tar Heel State there’s' only one creek taken over by women. Now take Washington for instance—the men here would feel themselves lucky if they could locate even one little stream in which they could fish without the women taking over.

A primary objective of the coming fiscal y4ar will be to help farm families who borrow through Farmers Home Adminiatration to increase their farm income. This will be done by improving! practices with present enterprises, developing additional enterprises, producing maximum amount of food for home consumption, and using to the fullest extent A. C. P. and S. C. S. benefits, says B. F. White. The conference featured discussions of policies governing the making and servicing of the three types of loans that are made to family sisse farm operators who are not eligible for their credit needs from regular lending agencies, White said. Administrator Lasse ter, as well as Howard Bertach of the-Farm Ownership Division of F. H. A. explained the cnanges in we msurra mortgage previsions of the Farm Tenant Act in that Congress had authorized the Farmers Home Adminstration to insure up to $200,000,000 of farm mortgages each year instead of $100,000,000 as previously. County loan ceilings pre now being raised above their former amounts to an amount not to exceed the average cost of family type farm in the particular county.Both of these gentlemen stressed the fact that while the F. H. program had been very successful we must not overlook the fact that past 10 years have been exceedingly profitable years for the farm -families. The F. H. A. makes short-time loans for farm operating purposes, long-term loans for the purchase and improvement of family-size farms, and loans to construct or repair farm dwellings and other buildings.

Rowell, insect control specialist at VPI. The damage is caused by the yellowish-colored insect, located in* masses of spittle-like secretion on the growing plants. The spittlebugs stunt the plants and cause decreased yields. Rowell lists these tips for control : * If the spittlebugs seem to be damaging alfalfa or clover, cut the crop as soon as possible. Then, when the hay is dry, remove it from the held and spray or dust the stubble with one of the suggested insecticides—toxaphene in emulsion form at the rate of% to 1 pound of the active ingredient par acre; DDT in emulsion form at 1 to 1 % pounds per acre; and lindane either as an emulsion or as a water-suspension at % pound per acre; or five percent chlordane dust, at the rate of 20 lbs. per acre. , - Make the treatment immediately after the hay is removed from the field. Then the new growth for the second cutting will contain none of the poisonous residue from the insecticide. Forage treated with the insecticides should not be fed to dairy cows, or to meat animals being finished for slaughter. More detailed instructions for spittlebug control* age available from W. H. Lyne, County Agent. ..■ I ■■■■■ .— III I , . New* for Veterans Edward M.

Pasture Goals Similar To Virginia Corn Program One cow to an acre of Virginia pasture is just as possible and practical as 100 bushels of corn on one acre. So says P. H. DeHart, Extension agronomist at V. P. I., in a report on the development of Virginia Pasturs Clubs. Clubs or contests are now underway in Washington, Nelson, Diniwiddie, Halifax, and Pittsylvania counties, with several other counties in the process of organizing. •' ' %s»DeHart says there are almost 6,000,000 acres of pasture land in Virginia with an average grazing capacity of one cow or steer to each four or five acres. This from the standpoint of efficient use of land, is about equivalent to a 26bushel corn yield. The corn yield in 1949 was 47.0 bushels an acre over double the 1924-44 average. The Virginia pasture program can do the same thing for grazing capacity as the corn program did for the corn, DeHart says. When this is accomplished it will add over 175,000,000 to the annual purchasing power of Virginia farmers considering increased production of all forms of livestock. DeHart explains that the Virginia Pasture Club was organized to provide opportunity for every one to take an active part in the pasture program. A certificate of membership will be issued by the V. P. I. Extension Service to any farmer who is a member of a county pasture club and who has at least five percent of his open land in pasture tltat. will, provide^ % grazing for one cow to the acre for the equivalent of 200 days. If you have a farm, see your county agent and join the pasture club. Find out about the rules and start this fall to develop pastures that will qualify you for membership in 1951. Mrs. Z. H.

NEWS FOR VETERANS Payment of the special dividend on National Service Life Insurance has been made to approximately 14,000,000 veterans of World War II, the Veterans Administration said, and payments to date have exceeded $2,500,* 000,000. The bulk of payments to eligible veterans who have applied will be completed by the end of June, V-A said. Arrangements for payment of dividends to the beneficiaries of World War II veterans who have died and who had paid premiums on their GI insurance for at least three months before their death, are now being handled by the district offices of the Veterans Administration. There are three general groups under this heading, where the veteran has deceased and his beneficiaries will be eligible to receive a dividend. The first group consists of those who are receiving monthly NSLJ payments as the proceeds of a policy, on account of the death of the veteran. V-A said there should be little difficulty in making such payments. The second group consists of beneficiaries who friave received payment of the proceeds of a NSLI policy in one lump sum. This will be processed individually following the first group and will be relatively simple to handle. The third group will be the estates of deceased \eterans whose NSLI policies had been in effect for three months of more but had been lapsed at the time of death, or individuals entitled by law to receive the dividend payments. This group requires the greatest amount of time for handling, as each case must be handled individually and many require legal determinations. The Veterans Administration district offices are working on this group as well as the first and second •-groups. Revival Services Rev. Ledford C.

Everyone is cordially invited to attend. opray to Control Late Blight Start spraying tomatoes to control late blight. That’s the advice from S. B. Fenne, plant disease specialist at V.P.I., who says the blight new is on the Eastern Shore, and may appear at any time in other parts of the state. Except for high daily temperatures, weather conditions for the past week have been ideal for late blight spread. Insoluble copper, as a spray or as a dust, is the recommended control material. It is available from most farm supply stores. Directions for mixing usually are found on the container. Use two pounds of actual copper to each 100 gals, of spray. If a dust is preferred, a 7% readymixed material is best. However, as 6% copper dust may be usded. A new chemical, zin^eb, sold under the trade names of Dithane Z-78 and Parzate, also is effective in the control of tomato late blight. Spray thoroughly, covering every leaf and fruit on both top and bottom sides. Repeat applications about once a week, and after rains. Animals Killed On Virginia Highways Some 22,730 dumb animals were killed on Virginia’s highways and buried by maintenance forces of the State Highway department during the six-month period which ended June 1, the road agency reported this week. The figure includes 5,818 cats, 4,709 dogs, 5,388 rabbits, 5,572 miscePaneous animals (opossums, groundhogs, deer, etc.) and 2,106 skunks. The total does not include pets killed on the highways and removed by their owners,. the department said. In this connection, a spokeman pointed out that it’s the owner’s responsibility to remove his dead animals from the highway, a penalty for failure to do so is provided in the 1950 Code of Virginia, Section 33-294. The six-month tabulation of animals buried by highway forces was initiated in December as part of a maintenance cost study. The over-all burial cost to the State was estimated at $22,730 or one dollar per animal, based on the average time and travel distance required to bury each animal. Hog Mange Widespread, Control Tips Listed Hog mange has become so widespread in Virginia that it is Considered of major economic importance to the swine industry; according to Entomologist J. O. Rowell of_the--Extenskrrr_Servrce—~ at VPI. The ailment, caused by a mite, is not easy to detect and may spread through an entire herd before it is noticed. Mange usually shows up first around the eyes, nose, and ears. As it spreads, the hogs lose hair, their skins get rough and their vitality is lowered. Rowell advises as a treatment spraying hogs with a suspension of benzene hexachloride or lindane powder in water. One thorough application usually is onough, but if lesions remain after thifee o* four weeks, the treatment should be repeated. BHC o- lindane sprays produce no visible discomfort or 'damage to treated swine, although the musty odor of BHC can be detected on the animals for several days after, treatment When using the materials, bo careful not to contaminate feed or water for livestock, or foo^ for humans. . County agents can give detailed information on preparation and; application of the spray mixture.

Begin \ Termite Control Before Building Don’t give termites a one-way » ticket to your home. If you are building, or thinking of building, a home, you can save some added expense later by following now some suggestions for termite-control. Entomologists at VPI say the ground-nesting termites can cause you plenty of trouble if you don’t check them early. Most of these termites infest buildings because the wood lies in direct or indirect contact with the moist ground. So before you begin building, go through the soil with a line tooth rake and remove all (wood debris. During construction, keep pieces of lumber and wall board from being buried around the foundation. Once you remove the wood, lumber, stakes, etc., and you have built your foundation free of cracks and crevices, you have taken the two most important steps in protecting your house against termites. For control ,of termites, the entomologists recommend chemicals such as sodium arsenite, DDT and pentachlorophenol. ‘Since thetje are poisonous materials, they should, be used only according to directions given in Farmers' Bulletin No. 1993 of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, on “Preventing Decay and Termite Damage in Houses.” Write the Agricultural Extension Service at VPI, Blacksburg.

rUOD FREEZING No. 8 Roy E. Mot.r, Jr., VPI Ext. Str. A good frozen food deserves a good package. No matter how good the food is when we freeze it, if the package is of low quality the food soon 'will lose quality. The chief requirement of a good package is that it be made of a moisture-vapor-resistant material. This means more than just being able to hold water. The package must also keep in the water vapor, and keep out the oxygen. Tin cans and glass jars would seem best from this respect, but various other materials will give satisfactory service. There are many suitable packages on the market today. Your locker operator sells several types. Heavily waxed cartons with tight covers are satisfactory. Some have a plastic cover which gives a good aeal. These are suitable, particularly for fruitB which are packed in syrup. ‘ For fmits without syrup and for vegetables, a package consisting of one of the plastic liners protected by a cardboard box is even better. Some types of cellophane, pliofilm nad other plastics have been treated to make them moisture-vapor-resistant, and can be heat-sealed also. These films have been laminated to heavy pai>er to give them strength. The shape of the package should also be considered. Round packages waste locker space, so the trend is toward rectangular packages. A thin rectangular package permits more rapid freezing than a cube. It also thaws quicker when it is to be used. Some of the packages can be (washed, and re-used. This cuts the packaging cost without cutting the quality of the package. If we package properly, we can go a long way toward keeping our frozen foods garden-fresh. A poor package is bound to cause loss"" of quality and vitamins. Have your locker operator help you pick the right package to fit ? your needs. Remember, a good frozen food deserves and needs a good package. ' . , f,.. ' Early Peaches Move T 0 ^ Market at Top Prices t | Virginia crop of early peaches, coming mainly from the Northern Neck and South Central areas, is moving to market at top prices now, reports Fred Dreiling, associate Extension horticulturist at V. P. I. The peaches, mostly of thi Early-Red-Fre variety, are selling for as mush as $9.00 a bushel on the Eastern Virginia market; but prices are slated for a drop as volume increases, Dreiling believes. Soil Samples Will Show How (Much Lime Needed How much lime do the Boils on your farm need? P. H. DeHart, agronomist for the Extension Service at VPI, says now is a good time to take a soil sample, send it for a test, and find out about lime and plant food needs. Agronomists at VPI ordinarily have a slack season in July, and can give. more prompt service on soil tests than at other times. A soil test is particularly important if you’re planning pasture improvement and development. Alfalfa and ladino clover require an abundance of calcium and a proper soil acidity for best growth. DeHart says many soils through, out the state do not need lime, even though it has not been applied during the past five to ten years. On the other hand, soils that have been limed during the past five years may need addition* al applications for best growth of ladino and alfalfa. If the soil does not need lime, you waste your money if you apply it, and your land may show over-liming injury. If the soil does need lime, and you don’t apply it, you’re wasting money spent for seed and fertilizer. County agents can give detail* ed instructions for taking soil samples, and will supply sample boxes free of charge. The Early-Red-Fre variety with Excellent cite and good form, is showing better than it has for many years, the specialist reports. The next variety to move on Virginia markets will be Red Havens. Dreiling says most of the peaches in the state this yeaT are early varieties, rather than the more prominent Elberta. The Elberta is less “resistant to late spring freezes, and has suffered heavily this year. . As for the insect-disease situation—-it’s not too severe a problem this year. There is a clean crop, with less-than-usual brown rot and insect damage. The 1950 peach crop, however, is estimated , at about 950,000 bushels—a 45 per cent drop from last year. Nationwide, the outlook is for about 56,000,000 bushels, or 75 per cent of the 1949 crop. In the Roanoke area, the peach crop will run about 1/3 to 1/2 of normal. Here too, early varieties are bearing heavier than the late varieties. It’s all right for marriage to be give and take so long as the take part doesn’t belong' excluclusively to the wife.

Teat For Possible Control For Newcastle Disease Use of a vapor to control airborne spread of a serious poultry diease has been under study by the Agricultural Experiment Station in Virginia. Experiments at the station, and under field conditions at Timberville have dealt with using triethylene glycol vapor to control air-* borne spread of Newcastle disease virus. Recent publicity given to use of glycol vapors against airborne infections prompted the study. Dr. E. P. Johnson, station animal pathologist, said it appears from the experiments that triethylene glycol vapors, properly used can accomplish a great deal toward controlling spread of Newcastle virus through the air. clearly, Johnson said, that the type of equipment and its installation had much influence on re-* suits obtained. For instance, it was found the equipment for releasing and distributing vapor had to be able to achieve almost 90 per cent saturation of the air with triethylene glycol vapor to obtain effective control. Johnson said it appears the vapors must be released in sufficient quantities to maintain a slight haze around the birds at all times. Experiments showed methods used to distribute vapors in homes and offices are not satisfactory in poultry houses or places where there is a lot of dust. It was. found their., release would be effective. The amount of glycol needed to achieve the correct saturation of air will vary with the temperature and humidity, temperature being the chief factor. , About five times as much col is needed to saturate air at 85 degrees Fahrenheit as would be required at a temperature. of 60 degrees. „ t!, ; Johnson emphasize! that control of the virus’ spread is not possible unless the equipment used is capable of maintaining approximately 90 per cent saturation at all times. _ Commissioner’s Notice * VIRGINIA: IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY.

Some Pointers On Safe Driving To Observe As tourist travel began to reach its peak and Virginia reeled under a staggering toll of 21 traffic dead for the long Fourth of July week end, Col. C. W. Woodson, Jr., Superintendent of State Police, and Executive Chairman of the Governor’s Highway Safety pommi ttee, called upon motorists to observe a few simple precautions which can prevent them from becoming vacation victims. Comprehensible police experience, he said, shows that holiday .motorists can best protect themselves by careful compliance with the following requests: 1. Check your car for mechanical weakness. While it might stand up well for short drives, sustain ed travel at higher speedy throws, an unusual strain, upon it and heightens the consequences of a breakdown. - 2. Don’t overload your car. This can obscure vision, lessen control and make breakdown more likely. In addition, headlight beams are thrown too high when the rear of a car is heavily loaded and a blinded oncoming motorist is a definite hazard. 3. Learn the laws of the state or district you are going to visit and obey them. The fact that you are a tourist doesn’t give you immunity.* 4. Don’t try to cover too much territory' by driving too fast or when you’re tired. An exhausted or sleepy driver can be as dangerous as an intoxicated one. 5. Make the kids behave. When they'fidget'thtey distract the driver’s attention. Shorter legs to your trip is the best way to achieve this. 6. Don’t slow down or stop to admire scenery, read signs or consult road maps without pulling off the highway. The driver behind you doesn’t know what you’re going to do. 7. Don’t drink while or before driving. Col. Woodson asked also that tourists drive defensively and bear in mind that the roads will be crowded with vacationers trying to get there and back in the shortest possible time and who will not be observing these warnings.

Quinn, Executive Director of the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries, reports from game technicians and wardens in the field indicate the best prospects in years for the coming quail season. * ■ Heavy concentrations of birds are being seen everywhere and a high defree pf nesting success is indickt^ed. Local heavy rains in the past fca weeks may interfere with the birds-in some areas, but generally speaking the all ovef state picture is highly optimistic/ Dry weather durtng the spring hatching season may have been one of the major factors in this year’s increase in Virginia’s most popular game bird, but Mr. Quinn stated that constant habitat improvement work by the state’s farmers and sportsmen, is also an Important factor in the increase. “The weather may be fine,” said the executive director, “But unless the birds have food and cover, they just won’t sur\ive.” As an example of this, Mr. Quinn pointed out that in certain sections of the state where the livestock industry is predominant, the quail population will undoubtedly remain static as a low level. Most of the land in these areas is in pasture and is heavily grazed so tne birds have neither food nor shelter and thus cannot increase beyond a certain point. Landscaping, Gardening Classes At V. P. I. Landscaping the home grounds, hnd fruit, flower, and vegetable production practices, will be taught at a short course for gardeners at V. P. I., August 7-11.

June I» Critical Month For Quail Production Virginia’s bird hunters can . gauge their chances for full game bags'this fall by watching the weather daring the month of June. According to Mr. I. T. Quinn, Executive Director of the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries, June is the critical month in the production cycle of the State’s most popular game bird. The bulk of the coining fall crop of quail is hatched during this period* ' :, -i. •. -Mi. A. V Any extremes in climate during thsi month can mean nesting failure for thousands of birds. Prolonged rains, wet chilly nights, or a bad Jra&t wave would have an adverse effect on the nesting quail and would be reflected in the scarcity of birds during the fall hunting season. » ,* Mr. Quinn further pointed out that quail, as well as all other game birds and animals should be considered as a crop produced by bhe land, and just as climatic conditions influence the production if any agricultural crop.
