Lyne County Agent iitiiiiataataiaaaaaiaaMaiaaaaaaaaaaiaaaaattaiaaiiMataiaaiaaaaaaaaaiA This is National Fire Prevention Week! The week of the great Chicago fire! According to a recent article in the Readers Digest we are among the highest fire-bugs in the world ... a record not to be proud of. Now is a good time for each subscriber of the “News” to check against fire loss. Here are a few things that you can do to increase your chances of not losing your property as result of fire. Use only safety matches . . . keep them out of reach of children; matches are too deadly for toys. Check that chimney . . . watch for loose bricks, cracks, cleait it out. If you have a shingle roof put on a spark arrester ... it costs little. . Are your lightning rods well grounded? do they go down to permanent moiatus*?--—.-v,— Don’t put wet hay in the mow. Be careful with kerosene. Watch for frayed insulation, loose or sagging wires and fixtures loose outlet and switch boxes, loose clamps and junction boxes, badly worn fixtures and overloaded circuits . . . Use 15 amp. fuses on lighting circuits. Turn the current off before attempting electrical repairs. Don’t smoke in the barn, in bed or near inflammable liquids. Don’t refuel tractor while engine is running or hot. Don’t operate op store your tractor in the barn. Don’t locate gasoline or fuel oil —tanks close to building. ’ Remember all fires start as small fires and to keep some sort of portable fighting equipment handy. *. ¥% * a new type ot treatment for the prevention of insect infestation of corn in storage is now available for use on the current corn crop. The insecticide, Pyrenone Grain Protection is applied to the corn going into storage to achieve protection and the rate of application is about 1.6 ounces per bushel of corn. Cost, of treatment is about 2c per bushel and has proven effective for as long as 9 months according to J. 0. Rowell, Extension Entomologist of VPI. It is also reported this insecticide can be used effectively in any type of bin or crib and although applied directly to corn can be used for livestock and human consumption. Pyrenone Grain Protectant is available in limited quantities and may be purchased through Planters Chemical Corporation, 3111 Broad Creek Road, Norfolk, Va. This firm is looking for dealers to handle the product in this section. * * * A pen of Berkshire barrows owned by a Mr. Arnold of Ohio nosed out Jacob Sisk’s pen in the finals open Sweepstakes Class at the Atlantic Rural.

They voted approval to investigate tl\e possibility of having a charge for town fire hydrants removed from the town’s expense account. The street committee reported failure so far in obtaining one person, on a year-round basis, to keep the streets clean and remove trash. . The ladies voted to cancel any salary for themselves but to allow; $5 a month for expenses to the mayor and clerk. Salaries of the councilmen prior to this were $2 a month, and $5 per month for the4 mayor. Mayor Davjs reported she had talked to William Thacker, field consultant for the league of Virginia municipalities, in regard to having the toll charge taken off county phone sails. This ^ad fol* lowed a discussion at a previous meeting when the ladies expressed an opinion that the county seat in a rural county should be avail-* able to the entire county by phono without a toll charge. Mr. Thacker advised the mayor that if the two telephnoe companies that serve the county, The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Co., and the Virginia Telephone and Telegraph Co., would not take any action, to go to Richmond and: see the State Corporation Commission. It was moved and voted by the ladies of the council to write both telephone companies. Routine hills were paid and the unfinished business was postponed to another meeting to be held Tuesday night, October 17, at 7:30 p.m. in the fire house.

Everyone should ibe as well informed as is the Legionnaire from* St. Louis, and it is quite certain that the folks in Washington will not make the mistake again. There are numbers of rales governing the proper dispay of the Stars and Stripes. An excellent illustrated pamphlet is put out by the Navy Recruiting Service, end upon request they will send a copy. An old bandmaster tells the ^ stoi^ of a little trouble*” he had once in connection with rules and regulations about the use of the “Star Spangled Banner.” A local powerful soprano was asked to sing the**. National Anthem at a public meeting and the band was to accompany her. At rehearsal the bandmaster noticed that the lady persisted in taking a very high note at the end of the anthem and held on to it with a vim attesting possession of the best copper plumbing. “Madam," quietly stated the bandmaster, “the band must play the National Anthem as it is written, with no embellishments nor furbelows. One does not decorate the National Anthem any more than he would sew lace on the Stars and Stripes!” The lady drew herself up to full height, shifted fifty per cent of her 200 pounds forward, and answered him, “The Good Lord gave me the ability to hit those high notes and I’m gonna do it.” And she did. The old bandmaster, in retaliation, brought the band out fortissimo on that final correct note, but even then the lady was not drowned out SPERRYVILLE SERVICE STATION Phone 3082 ‘The Tune Ha* Comm? tha Walrot nM . . , “Sin has the chicken-pox,” said the mother, “and it’s a good time to get ‘Vanity Fair’ into him. I’ve got him still now and he can’t get away." Education is a wonderful thing. Parents are wonderful. Good litelature is wonderful. But the most astounding thing is the durability, of children. Think of that poor youngster, sick in bed—which was bad enough in itself—but to have mother read Thackeray when she had him down and he couldn’t get up! Surely none but the very hardy could have survived that ordeal. ' Curiosity being what it is, I ventured the question: “When that lad grew up, what became of him?" “Oh, he turned out very well,” was the reply. I believe it. If he survived the chicken-pox and Thackeray at the same time, it showed remarkable stamina. I had whooping-cough and mumps at the same time, but never again shall I venture pride in stamina; that boy has me licked a mile! * * * H. Allen Smith sounded of! several days ago on his name. He listed some of the famous members of the Smith tribe, and then cited how one family had licked the problem of naming the new Smith baby, in some manner to distinguish him from all the other Smiths in the country, they just named him Smith Smith. In Rappahannock they say there is no problem along that line. One ■"lady says there^is no trouble'in' remembering the names of anyone in the county. Just call them Miller; if they are not Millers, their mother was a miller; and if their mother was not a Miller, then their grandmother was. “But how do you know what kin they are?’’ “Gracious mercy, child! you don’t know—they don’t even know themselves, and it doesn’t matter, anyway. They’re all kin.” * * * The business manager sat at the editor’s desk. *’ “I &ee you’ve J>een promoted,” stated a visitor in the office. “Nope,” replied the newspaperman. “You must be a newcomer to town. Ten years ago I had to give the paper to the business manager because I was so far behind in his salary, and I hired myself to him as business manager. I just got my paper back today — the same way I lost it.” * * * This is the time of the year when e*Jery one should pick himself a tree ahd watch it. For the past week and on into the coming one the crimson and gold will vie for attention against the dark of the evergreen.. * * * * Disappointment reigned (phew) for the crowds Sunday who had read all the advertisements saying that the second Sunday in October is the best one for Skyline Drive, for that is slated time for the foliage to be at Its best. If next Sunday is a pretty day, they may try again and may not be disappointed, for the trees show signs of lasting. Let the tourist have his broad highway. He may worry with all the traffic and think he has had a fine trip. But if you want to see the glories of the autumn, steer your course around Laurel Mills, Rock Mills, and Castleton. Of course the F.T. is beautiful and so is the drive from Amissville to Massie’s Comer, 'but too many1 others know about it and the traffic is so heavy you don’t have time to look.

An Open Letter St Louis, Mo. * Oct 7, 1950 The Hon. Mrs. Dotsie Davis Mayor of Washington, Va. xfel My Dear Madam: In the September 18th issue of Life, I noted a picture of you speaking from a stand. This stand in question was draped with the Flag of the. United States, com* monly known as the Stars and Stripes, the Flag that has been un* der one rule longer than any Flag in the world, the Flag that is our symbol of Liberty and Freedom, the Flag that thousands of our flower of manhood has died for that this land of ours should always remain free. I could go on for two or three hours on a common sense talk on our flag. I feel this is heedless, too many of our Americans and some in Washington it seems have come to the point as to only regard our precious Flag, that has been drenched in blood, merely as a trademark of the United States, the same as one might recognize their favorite brand of tomatoes. So I, therefore ask you Mrs. May* or by what authority you use our Stars and Stripes as a mere cover* ing for a speakers stand? This I am sure you must be aware that it is highly improper, unlawful and certainly disrespectful to our grand old Flag. - / . * May I add this as a reminder so you won’t make the dreadful mistake so many Mayors and one that our two previous Mayors have made, also countless executives of large corporations who have also made the mistake that I vajn •coming to* and "that tsH—•' “Don’t ever fly Old dory at half staff in order to honor some socalled Big Wig of your town.’’ Remember that the Flag'is the Flag of all 48 States and it should never be in mourning unless all 48 States mourn, and then only by a proclamation of the Commander of the Armed Forces of these Washington Theatre— Shows start at 7:15 and 9 P.M.

Haaretty) Thirty Culpeper county farm- - ers are taking advantage of the special allocation of funds by the Production Marketing Administration (AAA) for drainage work. Culpeper was one of the few counties in 'Virginia to receive the extra allocation to be used for drainage iwork during thq remainder of the calendar year. Farmers are paid at the rate of 8c per cubic yard for all of the dirt moved in a ditching project, the total sum not to exceed $100.00 per farmer. On most random drainage projects, 8c per cubic yard covers from 26 to 40 per cent of the total cost of the job. Soil Conservation Service technicians are assisting the farmers and the T.MA. in accomplishing this work. Jere White of White Shop has recently completed a 1-acre farm pond. Major John P. Sigman has constructed a 1.0 acre farm pond jon his farm near Reva. Both ponds were constructed principally to assure an adequate water supply and for fire protection. The ponds will be stocked with the proper number ~ iltd” species of large mouth black, bass and blue gills next spring. Of all worry-and-time-saving devices the practice of answering letters on the day of receipt is the best. iiiiiiiiMiiiiMnimiiiniimimimir FOOTBALL UNDER LIGHTS FRIDAY, OCT. 13 At C. H. S.

How To Help Prevent Farm Fires Row many farm fires can you prevent? That’s the question which H. S. Barksdale, PMA County Chairman put to Rappahannock county farmers at the Production and Marketing Administration joined other agencies in observing National Fire Prevention Week proclaimed by President Truman as October 8-14, 1958. Most fires are manmade, the Chairman sdld, in that they are the direct result of carelessness and neglect. Farm fires last year cost the rural people of the United States 895,000,000 or an average of over |15 per farm. Even worse, they cost the lives of nearly 3,500 farm people. Big fires start from little fires! But each time a farm fire gets out of band, insurance experience shows, ah average of one-fifth of the farm property value is destroyed. Here are a few questions that Chairman Barksdale suggests that each farm family ask themselves.

County News Notes THE FIRST 100 POUNDS ARE THE HARDEST The first 100 pounds of growth are the most difficult and ~ critical for the growing pig. Pig Pellagra, sometimes associated with Necrotic Enteritis (“Necro”), is an ever-present danger until pigs are well past the 7 5 pound mark. This crippling, profit-stealing nutritional disease is caused by a lack of Nicotinic Acid and otherJ3 factors in com, tankage, oats and alfalfa meal. Watkins Niacin-Yeast Mix provides these vital B factors. Feed it to sows during gestation for sturdy litters. Continue feeding it to nursing sows for better lactation. Feed it to the growing pigs for faster growth, lower feed costs; healthier pigs and finer finish at market weight Order a 25 or 100 pound drum today.
