VOL. 2—No. 13, WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 18; 1951 $2.00 Per Year FUTURE SCHOOL REQUIREMENTS DISCUSSED AT P. T. A. MEETING t in » report or the number ofpupils at Rappahannock County' High School and "the number ex* pected to be enrolled next year,'. ,H. B. Winfrey, principal, quoted figures that show the high school prill be more than crowded next pear*—it will be bursting 'at' the I yearns. | 'At the. request of the superin* tendent, Mr. Winfrey's report was made to the school board, members of tbe board of supervisors, and assemble^ patrons and teachers at the P.-T.A. Monday night1 at the school auditorium in Washington. . c'fj] , I As of October 31, 1950, stated Mr. Winfrey, there were 936 pu-' pils in the high school of thq " bounty. V In-coming from the seventh grades at. Sperryville, Flint - Mill, and Amhnville, besides those at Washington, are 38 more pupils. There are 19 to graduate - from the county high school this ■; |rear>.,. ^ -1 Mr. Winfrey’s report is as fel* lows: .- •. • The enrollment figures indicate that there will be approximately 250 to 265 pupils in the high school next year allowing for 19 graduates and from 25 to 95 drop-outs. The figure for drop* outs it based on guesswork, which, in turn, is based on figures Item, past years. Thera are 45 pupils in typing, 19 in shorthand, and 17 in boqk* keeping. There are 61 pupils tak* inq Iras’ economics and 4|.k i vocSw jnal agriculture. ; The recommendation vrhith \ would like (continued Mr. Winfrey) to make and to• which X hope you will give serious consid•ration are ‘ the result* of' the knowledge and experience of teachers ofyeara of service in the schools of this county and in particular, as these teachers are faeed daily with work in this school. | Allow me to say, first, that thel co-operation I have so far recalled: from the teachers in all grades f and subjects in this school, has fefen-excellent. • * It seems to me that for the dtost part, the pupils have accepted gracefully, (t not with wild enthusiasm, the fact of consolidation. And now, to come back for a moment to the enrollment figures „ tfir next session, and the. rooms available. Besides the classroom in the agriculture building, there are nine rooms occupied by high school classes, including the library room and the home.economics room and the room under the stage. - * - Disregarding the exact figures, there will be next year, pupils en-,< rolled in this school in numbers sufficient to fill two more rooms. That is exactly what we are faced „ with. There is no use in thinking, or talking about crowding more pupils into the existing classrooms. The rooms are already full, and one room in particular, is library room, which should be used as ti library room only, is overcrowded • with pupils using it every period, either as a classroom or study hall, • with a teacher in charge. The home economics room, wVi/tK e^/vii 1 si kn iioo/l oa oifkae * a classroom, kitchen, sowing room, or demonstration room in good housekeeping, is used as all four. Miss Owen deserves congratula-. tions-—and sympathy. And my sympathy is extended, every day, and nearly every period of every . day, to the teacher in the room * under the stage and the^our. primary and elementary teachers who to all intents and purposes pro Reaching in a boiler factory. In the five classrooms named, there are approximately 15.0 pupils and .five teachers trying to carry on while from 40 to 60 high school pupils under the direction of •Mri' | Calhoun are doing thenr prescribed and necessary athletic drills * t and games in the Auditorium. I i would like, above anything I know at the present, time, for any mem- ' ber of the school board, or any group of members, and of the «. board of supervisors, and any parent or group of parents, to spend | just 30 minutes in a visit to the % auditorium and any Or all of the . five classrooms adjoining, while I school is in session and this rouI tine is being followed. ). > ' ./ I In good weather. it Is not to x bad, because the high school pu| pils take their exercises outdoors, •• although, here again, there Is pot I enough room to accomodate the 1 number of pupils enrolled, let a* | lone the number expected.

The program will be divided * into two parts. One will be the • selection of well qualified musicians to spend ieveral weeks in Rappahannock teaching musical students from this and other states. This part of the program will be self-supporting from modest tuition fees paid by the students. Teachers and students will pay their board in homes or, at a convenient center. The other part of the program provides for at least three concerts to be given,by musicians of note who will come here for this purposes. The number of these concerts and the number of musicians participating will be governed by the number of tickets sold in advance at $3 each. The minimum required to launch the nronram in 1931 is 3000. On h secret expression of interest at the meeting, those present indicated such genera! and liberal support of tiie plan that Mr. fiaaker was authorised to prqceed with steps looking to the beginning of operations this year, probably in August. r F; Plans aw being made for *' systematic canvass of the county in order to secure fhe maximum guarantee of ticket sales and thus ; make it possible for the program of concerts to-be above the mini- ' mum from the beginning. It is hoped that at ‘least f1200 mill e secured. Committees will be appointed to make arrangements for the location of the concerts, the housing of the musicians and students and for hospitality. Mr. Haaker and Mrs. Haaker plan to spend several weeks in the county. Interest in the project has spread beyohd the county lines into adjoining counties. The name of “Blue Ridge” was chosen to indicate the inclusion of the counties in this ares, porbably Culpeper, Warren, Fauquier, Madison, Page and Frederick. Expressions of interest and desire to join in the enterprise have been received from Culpeper, Warren, Fauquier, Page and Madison. The State orchestra leaders and local promoters see* the possibility of this enterprise developing into prominence similar to the wellknown Berkshire Music Festival at Lennox, Mass., with which the Boston Symphony Orchestra is closely related. ’ Washington Theatre Tonight v Benefit The Merck ef Dime. Packing House Has Unique Equipment / The tilt-shelved contraption pictured is located at the Sperryville packing house, and it’s Lucio Kilby’s brain-child. , , Bill Lyne tells the story of a call ha received one summer’s night several years ago. “Get down here; I need help,” said Mr. Kilby. Upon arrival, Bill said, “Here I am. What do I do?” <; % “Start puffing,” ordered Mr. Kilby, ‘Tve blown smoke into this gadget until my mouth is dry.” There was Mr. Kilby: hunched over something that resembled a couple of cigar boxes. The contraption had a light*bulb inside and a small peep-hole on the side. The long-legged Kilby would puff some smoke into the front of the boxes and then duck quickly around to the peep-hole at the side and try to adjust the slant onthe shelves so that small blower •would distribute the smoke evenly through the wire shelves. „ Bill Lyne reported that he squatted in front of the boxes and puffed away while Mr. Kilby continued his adjusting of the slants on the shelves. When Bill reached the point where he thought he Was about, to dry up and blow away from all te smoke, he glanced across the room—and there was a bee smoker. It was used for the continued experiments. The results of Lucio _Kilby’s efforts were an air-filter, Tiuilt at about one-third the cost of a commercial one, and Mr. Kilby got himself written up the The Packer as having made and installed, the first air-purifier equipment with satisfactory service. COUNTY HEALTH NURSE IS IDENTIFIED Mrs.. Lee Thornton, was up 4n the Huntly neighborhood recently. In the course of asking directions and locating homes, she fcpoke with a gentleman who asked, "Who are you?” , - "I’m ‘ Frances Thornton, the county health nurse,” was the lady’s answer. <1 "Thornton? ' Thornton? Are you Lee Thornton’s daughter?” asked the gentleman. . - The story is too good to keep, r Lee’s wife enjoyed it. In fact, everyone who has heard it has enjoyed it; except maybe Lee. It is reported that he has made threatening remarks about the man. ■ , .t, INSIDE WOOD BROS.

Farmers who have not yet completed worksheets for 1951 ACP had better get them filed with the local PMA office by that date, H. S. Barksdale, PMA County Committee Chairman advised. He explained that it is necessary to establish a priority date in order to enable the PMA committee to establish a basis for an equitable distribution of funds. It also enables farmers to know the "minimum assistance which they can expect in carrying out conservation plans. “Most farmers who intend to carry out conservation practices for ACP credit have already signed, but we still believe there are some who have overlooked the matter,” Mr. Barksdale said. “It is not our desire to leave out anyone who wants to share under the program. I hope farmers will heed this last call.” Cast Named 'For Flint Hill P.-T. A. Play The cast for “Bride to Burn,” a play to be sponsored by the Flint'Hill P.-T.A. in February, has been named. The following are those taking parts; Mrs. Barbara ‘Gentry, Mrs. Brue Wood, Mrs. G. W, Smith, Jr., Mrs. Robert Massie, Miss Nancy Moore, Mrs: John , S. Browning, Lyde Dearing, Johnny McGehee, and H.

Letters to the paper are more than 'welcome. Your name does not have to appear in print if you are a person who dislikes to see your name in the paper. Sign your name to the letter and request that it be withheld and no .one will know the author.

Your letter may offer one suggestion that will be of great help, or your letter may be one that will prevent the making of a mistake. And even if your letter contributes nothing spectacular, nor prevents any terrible error, at least it will show that you were interested. Now Begins The WorkLike the little'boy who was invited to the “Apple Butter B’iling” and then told to start stirring, “I knew there was a catch in it somewhere.” It looks like Rappahannock will be the location for the. Virginia Orchestra summer camp— but there's a catch in it. We’ve got to go to work and get the plans all set up and sell the memberships.

In one you wonder if you dare 'lie, and you know the other one is a hunch of lies.. x ■s A fellow once told me there Were three kinds of lies: a white lie, a d— lie, and college cata. logue—but he should have said seed catalogue. Think of all the hours spent by Americans during these long winter evenings, studying the seedbooks and picturing his garden (or visioning her flower garden) for the coming summer. Did any of your tomatoes look like the pictures in the book? Have you raised a rose bush that produced even one bloom like unto the photograph? When disappointment grips my soul, come the lush and bountiful summer* it is a firm opinion in these quarters that the guy who got up the seed catalogue should be shot at sunrise; but right now, with winter in its dreariest, the old bird should be given a medal. I can see the lovely vegetables spread over my garden in exact duplication of the colorful pages in the seed book. The magnificent gnnuals and perennials furnish glory in the mind’s eye, located in exactly the correct spot near my home. My order will be off soon to the seed catalogue, and with the first warm days and renewed faith, to match the energies of the first bright sunshiny day, I shall march forth to have my summer garden just like the beautiful pictures in the books. It would be very wise if the subject were not mentioned after May 1. By that time, my energies will have diminished, my faith will be shattered, my temper short, the weeds tall, and I would derive great pleasure in choking the fel BARGAINS Four times daily, 10, 12, 2, and 4 o'clock, there will be on sale some article of merchandise that is of unusual value.

A me* At the 1950 meeting of the Virginia State Horticulture Society, considerable discussion took place regarding the orchardist’s efforts to get a good set of fruit on Red Delicious and Staymen. Red Delicious and Staymen are two of the leading commercial va— rieties of apples being grown in this state. For these varieties to be productive and make a good crop regularly, they should be interplanted with the proper varieties, so that cross pollination can take place. » ~ Many scientists who have studi •at la his tmi at blooming time. They arc likely to determina -whether or not a crop of fruit will Jt>e produced. Fruit trees bloom early in the year, and in. sects in abundance are not likely to be present at that time. Some flies, solitary bees, wasps, butter* flies, and honeybees are likely to be present. If honeybees are not found,, or if they are few in number, prospects for a good fruit crop are poor, for the other insects mentioned are not as well fitted for carrying pollen. The entire life of the honeybee depends upon nectar and pollen from flowers. Its body is clothed with hairs which cause pollen to adhere to its body and be carried from flower to flower and pollinate blossoms While searching for nectar. The bee also has special structures on its body for rubbing pollen off its body and collecting it on a hairy brush. Stiff spines on the inside of each hind leg act as a comb for removing the pollen from the brush, after which it is squeezed to the outside of the legs and patted down by the middle legs into a ring of hairs forming the "pollen basket.” In this basket, pollen is carried home to the hive to provide food for young bees,"as well as adults* * Pollen provides bees with protein and minerals, and nectar provides them with the carbohydrates necessary for normal development. - The honeybee is the only insect man can increase in large numbers and move about from place to place.to accomplish the tremendous job of pollination. In a single blossom, there are five florets to be pollinated; on a single tree, thousands of blossoms; and in an acre of average-sised fruit trees, there are hundreds of thousands . of flowers which must be visited by insects in a few days, if a paying crop of fruit is to be produced. Honeybees can do the job, but are limited to some degree in their activities by the weather, the strength of the colony, and their -T- See ORCHARDIST Page 3 ed pollination problems have observed that Delicious and staymen ^do not "set” fruit in abundance when pollen from the same tree fertilizes the flowers. They have also noted that if the pollen of two varieties occurs on the pistel of the flower it is usually Always the foreign pollen that causes fertilization. This is cross pollination and was observed by Darwin and others. Cross pollination gives plants what is known today as "hybrid vigor.” Varieties which do not pollinate with Bed Delicious and Staymen very well are Transparent, McIntosh, Courtland, Duchess, and Winesap. Varieties which are compatible to Staymen, Delicious, Crimes, and Winesap are Rome, Crimes, Jonathan, Golden Delicious, and York. The orchardist should be concerned with the fact that pollen from apple blossoms is quite moist and sticky and is not readily blown about by the. wind. This is demonstrated by the fact that where there are no insect visitors to the flowers, little fruit results. Neotar'is apparently put in flowers by the Creator to attract in- . sects which wilj carry pollen from plant to plant and perpetuate the ^Speeiet(, ■ The orchardist should also be concerned about the insects pres Washington Theatre 'r ; . ■ •• ■' _ .

Lyne, County A(*it Don’t get the idee that I’m professing to be an expert horticulturist even though a county agent is frequently expected to know all . that is ktaown about agriculture, plus a little law, some veterinary medicine, yes and even sometimes what it takes to cure the baby of colic. No far be it—however let’s ponder over a few local facts pertaining 'to apples and what they did last* fall for some Rappahannock growers. What did thinning actually give . ‘ here in Rappahannock last fall? sunny weather with a temperature of 65 degrees P. or above is high enough to encourage bees to visit enough blossoms to produce a crop of fruit, if there are enough present and they are well distributed _in the orchard. Strong colonies send out from eight to twenty times more bees ' in cool weather than do weak ones. Since it is likely to be cool at fruit bloom time, strong colonies are essential. At that time of the year, a strong colony will usually con-* tain five or more frames of brood. If weather unfavorable for bee flight should occur throughout the fruit blooming period, as it sometimes does, distributing them in the orchard is helpful in producing a uniform set of fruit. The number of colonies per a'cre and the number of colonies at one point can best l>e determined by experience. Sometimes, one colony per acre is used, but with strong colonies and favorable weather too much fruit may be pollihated and thinning may be necessary for' the fruits to attain a good sixe. Generally, m strong colony to two or three acres is used in the luge orchards in Virginia. If the proper varieties are interplnated, and if enough honey- i bees are present, good crops of ■ fruit should be obtained regularly, providing other factors in . pro- - duction are properly cared for. The J. H. Hale and the Mikado peach require cross-pollination to produce a crop, but the quality of other peaches may be improved by this phenomena. Other fruits requiring cross pollination or benefited by it are pears, grapes, most betrjr crops, cherries, plums, and avocadoes. In all, more than fifty of ourpresent-day crops need bees or are benefitted by the activities of bees in collecting and scattering pollen in their efforts to msike a living - s<7:' NOTICE > 'fFARMERS v, . ^ 1 \ . - ; .

What about volume? Well, Tm told the area of an apple Is the cube -of its diameter. Thus a 3 in. apple has 27 cu. inches in volume, or more than twice the volume of an apple but one-half inch smaller in diameter. Again to refer to the prices quoted it looks like $1.10 difference per hundned lbs. between 2Yz and up No. 1—A, and 2Vi - 2% No. 1—A would exceed the cost of thinning far enough to allow a juicy profit.

School (Continued from page 1.) fortunately, good weather doea not prevail throughout the nine months of the session and all pupils must and should take exercises and have play periods every day.

Another bad feature is the total lack of apace for an enclosed passageway to the lunchroom. Since school ..opened in September,.. an. average of 205 pupils per day haVe been eating in the lunchroom and the pupils must wait, some of them, outside as long as 25 minutes in line before being served.v Also, there is the matter of the classes in music.
