Massie, Commissioner of ■avenue, with the help of the Board, was requested to select a nan as an assistant to make a Bouse-to-house canvas and assess Bie tangible and intangible property of every citizen in the county. K The Board recommended that Biis assistant be paid $200 per Bonth plus five cents per mile, Bnd that he be employed for six Bionths of the year. I The motion of recommendation Bras made by W. C. Campbell, seconded by IH. B. Wood and carried By a vote of five to one, with A. E. Latham voting “no.” The mo* lion was stated; ‘That the ComBnisioner of Revenue of RappahanBock County be paid a salary of ■2600 a year, and, in addition, that the Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County recommend that the Commissioner of Revenue Be furnished an assistant. This assistant to be a man, to, be paid! ■200 per month, plus mileage of Bve cents per mile, who is to visit (the property owners of Rappahanjnock County and assess all tangaEble and intangible property.” Aboat 80 citizens from the six IMincis ox vne county were presmt at the meeting end many exrreased opinions. W. H. Massie, r., asked that the Commissioner •I Revenue he paid a certain tated salary and he given the irivilege of running; the office as he thought best. Charles Wood ment with this viewpoint.'*'^ ,, l C. E. Johnson, Jr., thought it better to have a man to assess, since it had proven disastrous to ■epend upon the eitisens to subnit a satisfactory statement to the Commissioner, as provided by law. Many agreed with Mr. Johnson’s It was—pointed out that the ulicy of employing an assessor id proved satisfactory in another >unty and should be successful i this county. Five claims were paid for sheep illed by dogs. It was pointed it, in paying these claims, that t three of the five claims, the leep had not been assessed, asf le owners had not given the rent on them to the Commissioner f Revenue. Mrs. Massie statedi lat she would see that they were Harry Settle, R. M. Monro, and omine Taylor were paid $15 lor beep not asessed; Mrs. Viol* Sieert was paid $17, and Joe W. [eyser, $75. Maurice O’Bannon ras paid $17 for some shoats that ere killed. Richard Worthington, Resident ngineer, highway department, resented the final budget for the iunty roads; amounting to about $8,000 for the fiscal year 1951$52. This was unanimously aptay McKinley Fincham Ray McKinley Fincham died at 'nirersity hospital after a short lness Monday, December 8. •Graveside services will be held >day, Thursday, at 2 p.m. at the [asonic cemetery, Washington, 'ith Rev.

Gilbert' Whorton, Ira and HMUMMiMamtimiiiiitMiiiiimiimHiininMinMiHuniiMn RAPP - OH ATS By. W. H. Lyne County Agent Buying Corn On Tlio Ear The amount of Corn a bushel of ear com will shell out varies with variety and moisture test. Therefore the best way to buy or sell ear corn, since it is frequently more practical to handle it is ear form, is to do so at a standard 70 pound ear bushel weight price adjusted according to moisture content. Com price being generally calculated on a 15% moisture basis. Thus IF ear corn at 15 % moisture is priced at $2.00 bushel &nd moisture tests reveals the particular lot contains 20% moisture thus its value is 5% less' than the quotation of $1.90 per bushel. Contact your miller regarding moisture samples. Page Milling Company through its representatives Mr. Baker at Fletcher’s Mill, has been ’most cooperative in making moisture tests on samples produced by 100 bushel corn club applicants. •Did last drought reduce your feed crop yields making wintering livestock a problem? If so, come by the office or write the details and I will gladly go over the possibilities with you. Adjustments in rations will vary according to what feeds you have and the amount of each and the type and age of livestock. Cottonseeds meal is still the best buy in a protein supplement, however the price has risen about » the la*M 4m feeding value of cent and way help decidedly in wintering of dry dairy cows or beef cows when diluted and fed over poor quality roughage such as feeder, straw or hay. Better order your fertiliser now, sulphur is still short and in great demand for defense purposes and hense fertiliser manufacturing will be .held back during rush seasons such as spring planting. Eroded, badly cut over worn out and idle, land is a liability; not earning a cent of the taxes that must be paid on it. Forest tree seedlings will grow on such and will again nuke it productive. Seedlings of adapted species are available through Virginia Forest (Service of Charlottesville. rwm reatures nas Deen discontinued over WCVA (Culpeper) and the usual time sold to a commercial. In spite of expressions resulting from a recent poll of Rappahannock farm men and women of the value received from thi» program WCVA still states they can’t put on the program except at a time when, according to our listeners, their daily living does not permit listening to the radio. Last Monday we called on the manager of WFTR (Front Royal) and were received with open arms when it came to making a regular weekly broadcast frbm that station during the noon hour. Miss Fuss, Bill Seville and I want to provide you the sort of service you Rappahannockers want. The poll indicates very definately that you want these broadcasts to be continued. The question is, can you get WFTR, 1450 on your dial, during the noon hour? We’ll put on the program if it can reach you. Upon returning from Front Roya), I tuned my car radio to this station and received an excellent reception through Washington, •SperryviHe and as far down F. T. as Henry Sisk’s farm, so don't imagine there is any question regarding reception in this eras. What about WoodviUe, Caatleton, Feola Mills, AmissviHe, etc?

Rappahannock Hews Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE "■ Publisher Entered me second-class mail natter at the post office at Washington, Virginia. Bobacriiftion:-$2.00 a year “Dr. Livingstone, —” •Civilization’s progress is fine in many respects. There are many times that no one agrees with the advocates of “the good ole* days.” No one wants them back—unless he can keep his modern conveniences. There is one item, certainly not given us by our grandparents nor our parents, that we seem to be acquiring: that is the dropping of dignity by the modern, indiscriminate use of first names. We can recall that Grandfather never called Grandmother’s Christian name in public. To the children she was “your Mother,” and to all others she was “Mrs. B—.” That may be carrying it a little •fov Knf if nnvor loplrc Hicnit.V. Somewhere along the line, we - have started dropping that part of our manners that gives us a tendency to speak of our neighbor with the mark of deference im-< plied by the Mr., Mrs., or Miss before their names. So far, I’ve not bden able to find when and where we began to lose this habit of the use of surnames. Someone suggested that the custom of use of the Christian name was a Quaker trait and, 1 spreading rapidly through the north, was brought south by the Yankee invasion—g rowing by* leaps and bounds since the 186165 bit of our nation’s history. Someone else has suggested that it disappeared in public schools with a heterogeneous assembling of all kinds and strata of social life. It is a well-known fact that the broad-A and the soft g’s and. c’s of gyirl, gyarden, cyar, and cyards disappeared when young.sters were thrown into public school where it was not used. Perhaps that is where the term of respect designated by Mr., Mrs., and Miss disappeared, also. I don’t know where nor when the respectful term was lost—I do know that I don’t admire its departure. N It has been suggested — in a caustie ton*—that the dm «f that formal name ia informal conversation with friends shows an exaggerated pride, bordering on the old “familiarity breeds contempt” thesis. That is a poor explanation and sounds mote like an excuse than a reason. It would he better to quote Mr. Pope, perhaps, and say “Be not the first by whom the new are tried, Nor yet the last to lay the old aside.” It’s a custom among southerners to use the formal terms in speaking to a friend or to an acquaintance; it’s use is one of deference, dignity, and respect rather than strict formality or lack of friendliness. . It is one of the refinements handed down to us by our forefathers and we should hang on to it—goodness knows, weNre lost most of the other good things they left us! -W : s s \*The Time Hoe Come/ f s the Walras said . . . There are two items of major interest in the county of late: hunting and hawg killin’. Thousands of stories have been told about each of these activities, two of which are told here. (Both of these stories are bound to be true. One of them was told by Clyde Jenkins, who said Billy Moffett told him. The other tale was told at a filling station at iSperry\ille.) Two city hunters stopped at a filling station in the county. When asked if they had had any luck, they too-modestly replied, “Yes, a little. We got two pheasants and one red fox.” “Huh!” said the filling station man, "1 guess you did have luckl ’Mind if I see ’em?” “Co right ahead,” quoth the hunters, “they’re in the trunk.” They were in the trunk, ail right. The hunters had bagged two guineas and a small red dog! . Thehawg killin’ story concerns a query as to: “Do you know the best way to clean chitflin’s?” “Use the washing machine. It’s the best way I’ve found. And if you think they’re a little too fat, run ’em through the wringer.” So, you think you’ve got troubles? Did you see in the paper where a woman had the second set of twin sons in 11 months? Santas are having a hard time these days. Men who must don the traditional suits of red and pounds of whiskers are earning their bread the hard way from now until December 24.

While wo are spending our subfor defense, ond white our population Is growing ot the rote of hourly two and ono-holf million people ooch poor, oar supply of fertile load is dwindling. There are two causes of that land less. One, of coarse, Is soil erosion. Another, and a growing threat, is the rapid encroachment of real estate developments, concrete airport runways, drive-in movies^actories and similar industrial or recreational^ expansions that take up spacespace that was once productive acres of fertile land. Not nearly enough people really understand America’s land problems. Some do—Soil Conservation District Supervisors, a handful of conservation organizations, and a few enlightened individuals. A recent survey indicated that only 1 per cent or less of the city people— the folks who make up 84% of the voters— know what soil conservation means. Only a fraction of that 1 % has the slightest conception of Soil Conservation Districts. American people must quickly be brought to recognize what’s happening to the land and decide to do something effective about it. That’s our first crossroads. Once past that decision, we come to a of the rood. At that determine bow to do point wo th#^ hi™ The Wot way to msaiet local people fa through local leadership, but to do it in keeping with sound national policy. That is the right road for America.

Don’t wash unless the label says the dyes are colorfast. The chief cause of wollen shrinkage is water too hot and excessive rubbing. Squeeze suds through garment rather than rub.

' TURKEY SHOOT SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8 10 A.M. 12- 16- and 20-gauge guns — Shells 'Furnished POSTERS SERVICE STATION FLINT HILL, VIRGINIA FRIZES: Turkeys, Pigs, Chickens * Here is a man who’s been doing a lot of thinking. Someday, he’s told himself, I’m going to turn in my old car and get a new one. And he said, still talking to himself, when I do that I’m going to size up the field-give ’em all a real going over. You see him here at the wheel of a Buick. He hasn’t bought it—yet. It’s a demonstrator, and he’s trying it out. But the more he tries it, the more he knows he’s been • wasting a lot of time. From the moment he looked inside, he said: Here’s the room-and the comfort-and the style I’ve been looking for. Then he nudged its Fireball Engine into action. It’s a high-compression valve-in-head, as you probably know. He eased out into traffic. Stopped and started for a couple of traffic fights, and said something to the - effect that this Dynaflow Drive* is a honey. Why don’t they all build’em this way? He saw a biftnp ahead. Place where the pavement i *ubj*et to 0*mf« without no tie*. 4tSfmdmrd on ROADMASTMK, optional at * - had been tom up. Other cars were braking down to a creep to cross it. He held back—rolled right across at regular speed with barely a bobble. It’s hard to believe, he said, but what they say about Buick’s ride is right. Ten minutes later he was out on an open stretch of road. Tried an experimental push on the gas treadle. Boy—what a take-off! You couldn’t want more power than that. Ten minutes more—and he knew something else. You don’t really steer a Buick. It just about steers itself. Stays right on the beam on the straightaway. Even straightens itself out after a curve. To make a long story short—he’s found out that nothing else he’s tried out can hold a candle—not even alittle Christmas candle—to this bonnie beauty. Back at the Buick showroom, he’s going to get one more surprise. The price of a Buick is a lot less than he’d guessed it would be. Moral: Smart Buy’s Buick—right now.

Lassiter, associate animal husbandman of the VPl Experiment Station, stated at the Out Out Demonstration held last Saturday at Sperryville that: in comparing feed costs and resulting gains between feeding two hogs to 400 lbs. liveweight and four hogs to 200 lbs. liveweight (both making a total of 800 lbs. pork on the hoof) that the two 400 lbs. porkers cut out 8 )bs. less meat, required 690 lbs. more feed, and produce 60 lbs. more lard, not to mention the greater difficulty in curing the larger meat. The average lard consumption per capita being 20 lbs. per year the four 200 lbs. porkers would provide a sufficient quantity for a family of five. Thus with feed costing around 4-cents Der oound locally. $27.60 can be saved in feeding hogs to the lighter weight—more than enough to buy the two extra pigs at the beginning of the feeding period. Of course, the big saving in comparing the two insofar as home usage is concerned is in less spoilage as result of easier penetration of salt curing.
