ceived recently from the owner of two of the largest dairy farms in Northern Virginia. Mr. J. Clifford Miller, Jr., owner of Beauregard Stock Farm, Brandy, and Mount Vernon Farm, tSperryville, tells us what he thinks of conservation. The letter to Rappahannock News follows:

Beauregard Stock Barm

Brandy Station, Va.

October 22, 1951 Editor, Rappahannock New* Washington, Va.

He started talking conservation planning, but we did not get far with this for several years due to a severe attack of Bang’s Disease in our dairy herd, and the fact that the war came along and I was gone for a couple of years.

My first real interest started when 1 saw the State Highway trucks hauling- red soil from the highway that runs on one side of nr farm.
