Cows of the three major beef breeds with their 1951 daughters and present calf crop will be on display with their respective sires nearby which will prove an inter-' eating spectacle to observe. Last Thursday 1 visited the Research Center for the purpose of inspecting the bulls that will be offered for sale. These bulls have done much better as a group than in any previous year and have been fed on unusual ration which should arouse the thinking of all our cattlemen in Rappahannock. This ration being rather bulky in nature gives most of the young herd sires the appearance of being pinched in the heart girth more than is actually the case and actually is a well developed barrel, C due to the bulkyness of the economical ration. According to my eye the Shorthorns are the outstanding bulls of the lot. A couple of reds, a dark roan and a white bull were especi- . ally appealing. While the Angus aren’t up to a lot we’ve seen, they are a very commendable group. There is a grandson of Highlands General 44th (chain No. 91) that is a soggy growthy type with a nice set of breeches that caught y * my eyer Also while a different type ... altogether from the bull carrying chain No. 91 there was another Angus bull of Eileenmere breeding (chain No. 90) that should do an excellent job when used on big rugged cows. All bulls (will be on : display prior to the sale, and their individual growth records available. i Cows at the Center having suf- „ fered with Grass Tetany last year Bob Priode, in charge is feeding a mineral mixture which sounds good to me, sfhd is apparently giving results. Here ’tis: 100 lb. ground limestone, 300 lb. steamed bone meal, 100 lb. salt, one and . one-third ounces cobalt chloride, one and two-thirds pounds bluestone and 50 lb. linseed meal or cottonseed meal to make more palatable.

Discussion of the budget and, •proposed increase in the tax levy is set for a special meeting Saturday, April 5. There is some opposition regarding the rescinding of the bounty on foxes, with the rabies scare rifle in the county, and there are still some opinions that the bounty is not necessary. A draw-back in the immediate 'Work on the road between Amissville and the Culpeper line falls because of the failure of a property owner to agree to the right— of-way as set by highway engineers. A viewing board will report to the supervisors and there wiH be an effort made to settle the road question so work may be , completed on this section of the highway.

Subscription: .... $2.00 a year, BAp BUSINESS By Georg* Peck Where Government (federal, state or local) is competing with private enterprise, in all too many cases Government is doing so at a loss, making up such deficit from the general tax fund. It follows then that where Government is competing with private enterprise and operating at* a loss, it is engaging in an unfair competitive practice, one which is undermining the economic and social foundations of the naton, while at one and the same time increasing taxes oit'the private enterprisers themselves and on the general public.. Where Government competes with private enterprise at a loss, all of the people are forced to pay a share of that loss, while only those who purchase or utilize such govemmentally produced goods and services actually obtain any benefit. This is unconstitutional— it abridges the right of the people > to make their own choiee as to what they shall purchase. It forces many people to pay through taxation for things that they themselves either cannot use, or would* prefer to purchase elsewhere. History reveals that there are many reasons why it is impossible for a government to carry on a business as effectively and economically as it can be done by a privately-owned and privately-? operated company. The principal one of these reasons is that when Government owns and operates a business, it is forced to set up a bureaucracy. This bureaucracy, in spite of the efforts of those in government, who may have executive ability, inevitably'becomes involved in a network of red tape that makes for delay, waste end extra expense. Perhaps the most serious consequence that usually follows gov PITTS FRONT ROYAL THURSDAY only, MARCH 27 DANNY KAYE — in — ‘The Inspector General* (Color by Technicolor) •FRI. - SAT., MAR. 28-29 PEGGY CUMMINS JOHN DALL “Gun Crazy** — Hit No. 2 — DUNCAN RENALDO as Cisco Kid , DEO CARRILLO —in— “The Girl From San Lorenzo** c SUN. - MON., MAR. 30 - 31 PAUL HENREID CATHERINE McLEOD “SoYounTso Bad** TUBS. - WED., APRIL 1-2 JOHN WAYNE PATRICIA NEAL —in— “Operation Pacific** THURSDAY, APRIL 3 STEVE COCHRAN VIRGINIA GREY — in— ‘‘ “Highway 301** . v. » ■ . \*v : ernmental competition (with private enterprise is the fact that Government agencies so engaged are not required to pay taxes in k the same manner and at the same rate as is demanded of private enterprise organizations. This is a most disrupting influence, makes unfair competition and very often seriously affects the income of states, municipalities and local governments. AH the evidence would seem to | prove that Government in business is bad business—bad business for . all concerned—not only for the private enterprises with which it unfairly competes, but for the taxpayers and for the state or community in which it operates. A halt must be called to further encroachment of Government into the affairs which time and experience have proved rightfully belong to private endeavor. Further, Government must be made to remove' its paralyzing hands from numerous' undertakings already usurped. One of the first and most important duties of Congress should be to stop the expansion of Federal Government into the field now served so well by private enterprises. Its next most important duty should be to eliminate those federal agencies, bureaus, departments, commissions and other Governmental activities which compete with, infringe upon or interfere wth private enterprise. Make sure that the Congressman and U. S. Senators, whether they be Democrat or Republican, for whom you vote next November 4 are definafely ^committed to a policy of having the Government keep its devastating clutches off private enterprise. That is the sure way to atop the forward march of socialism in free America. Make no mistake, government in business is socialism, in addition to being Bad business.

C., and if we had that faith, there was hope; and charity begins at home. The gentleman’s conservative speaking would be popular in Indiana, too, along about now, since the Hoosiers have rebelled , at government doles and handouts. The solid-headed Hoosier businessmen didn’t like the idea of sending their dollar to Washington. D.C.to get 54 cents of it back in handouts. They’ve refused all Federal aid in the future according to some news stories. There's a young farmer in an adjoining county who has the perfect answer. He’s going to pick up some spare money (to help himself) and he is going to benefitbis fellow man at the same time, v ; For a very small sum the young farmer is. going to board citydwellers with farm-owning ambi- * tions. “You know how these city workers all want a little farm *to play around with in their spare r time and on week ends’?” he states. “Well, I’m going to board ‘em for two weeks; let ‘em have a nice vacation on the farm and let ‘em help with the work. It will give them a first-hand taste of ’ what they’re going into when they buy that litle farm they think they are hankering for.” " -r"7 WASHINGTON THEATRE start at 7:15 and 9 P.

Natural Mink, Wild Mink, Ranch Mink, Silverblue Mink, Starlight Mink, Royal Pastel Mink, Breathof-Spring Mink, in capes, stoles, boleros, cape stoles, convertible stoles, jackets, and cape jackets.” I never heard so much glamor spread over the hides of a bunch of smelly, vicious, little animals. At a mink farm not far away, I*ve teen the4 little beast*. They bite the bend that feeds them—literally—for the owner, after years of rasing the hateful brutes still has to wear heavy leather gauntlets when he goes near the caes. The female devours her own young if she is disturbed while her babies are small. It’s no small task with the owner to keep people from going near the cages, and prowling animals at night can quickly help him >lose his profit by disturbing the mother mink and causing her to kUl her young. 1 Somehow, it’s incongruous to see all those glamorous words— silverblue, starlight, breath-ofspring, etc.,—attached to the skins of those hateful little beasts after you see them in the cages. : WASHINGTON W S C A M$T THURSDAy AT CHURCH The WSCS of the Washington Methodist church met Thursday ■ evening at 7:30 at the church, with 14 old members and 2 new members Preston* Welch and Mrs. Susie Pullen.

If jrpiir cows could talk1, ttat,s all you'd hear all summer long. For flies are maddening pests to your cows- Himdreds—even thousands of flies—biting your cows and crawling over their hides prevent them from grazing.. Flies are your direct enemies, too, for they often carry harmful bacteria to the milk utensils and the milk itself, thus raising the bacteria count. Watkins Grade AA Fly Spray protects your cows and your dairy utensils against flies in the barn and in the pasture! It knocks flies down fast and kills them with a swift knock-out punch* And because it contains Methoxychlor, it protects your cows against flies in the pasture all day long.

Almost no •once can think logically in terms of tens of billions and hundreds of billions. v > But when the meaning of taxes and the debt is felated to the average man and the average family, the ominous picture clears. The Bulletin of the Southern States Industrial Council recently did that when it said, “The public debt is $260,000,000,000, and this lays a $6,800 burden on every family in America. The interest. J alone on this debt aggregates more than $6,000,000,000 annually—or $180 for every family. Last year the average family paid 589 in direct taxes and another : $500 in ‘hidden’ taxes. A total of more than $2,000. This year the *take’ will be greater. '* “When the $85,500,000,000 budget proposed for next year— which it is now estimated #11 create a deficit of $14,000,000,000—is compared with current (Federal spending—we find that it will add an average financial liability—either in taxes or increased debt—of $226 for every family in America.” There it is. We can’t think in billions, but we can think in hundreds and in thousands, <i’s your money. It’s coming out of your pockets—and it will come out of your children’s pockets. Debt and taxes are destroying us from within. It isn’t a question of whether we “want” to cut government spending. We “must" cut it—if we are to survive as a free people. Me, and Mrs. John K. Scott motored to Warrenton Sunday. J Will Latham is a patient in the - Winchester Memorial Hospital. Rev. A. C. Walker, Jr. has left to be a chaplin in the Army.

. Thornton • Gap Regular Baptist Church ' By Russell Ji, Thompson1 ! A Baptist church was organized at Thornton’s Gap during the year 1787, and a meeting house built in what, is commonly known 'as “Old Bryan Meeting House”, having been -built partly through the 'efforts of the grandfather of the late William Jennings Bryan. The church progressed, despite ' the many handicaps which were common to those days. The" brethren were zealous in matters of doctrine and practice, some**fr**es to a fault, and differences grew up among them to the point where a division was had about the year 1»36. The apparent principal cause of the division was that of the support of missions through the “board” system. As is usual in those cases where differences occur, there was evidently more of an effort bn the part of some of those persons engaged in the dispute to widen the breach than there was to heal over and try to * reach an amicable settlement of their differences. Some of those engaged would say, were they now : living, that such a settlement was impossible. But is that true? To a considerable degree, the division followed a course along family lines, which in itself would indicate that it was not a clear-cut $ issue because of differences of belief over doctrine and practice. From what this humble writer has been able to learn from firsthand knowledge, there are members on either side of the issue whose sincere belief and sympathy ii with the other side. Neither can _ • 1 L — . A a % m •« Am aiuc 1,1 utiiiuiijr ZMtjr vimt those persons on the opposite side of the issue were wholly at fault in the brihging about of the division. And should there be any who are carrying the issue along, we implore them to “look well’ to what they are doing. The outcome of the disagreement was that there grew up three distinct bodies or denominations of Baptists there being three Baptist churches in and around tSperryville. - At the time of the last division, 1890-91, Elder Charles Lewis a Yates was pastor of the church. I The two .congregations continued " to meet-in the same church house until about 1916, at which time ■ *the Primitive Baptist Group began meeting in a new church building which they erected. Dating from the division, the following have been pastors of the Thornton’s Gap Regular Baptist Church: . ^Charles L. Yates, John Huff, Joseph B. Mclnturff, James E.

Post time for the first race is 2:30 p.m. A, highlight of Virginia’s racing and social calendar, Gold Cup Day annually draws thousands of spectators from throughout Virginia and neighboring states.

The race should be particularly exciting this year, as three owners may be contending for a third victory and permanent possession gf the Gold Cup, retired only three . times in 26 years. Mrs. Carhart won in 1942 with Sir Romeo and plans to enter the ,« 1951 winner, Mister Mars, again this year. Others with two legs on the cup are Christopher M. Greer, Jr., of Middleburg, who won with Goldun in 1941 and Houseman in 1946, and Thomas Stokes of Philadelphia, whose Never Worry finished first in 1947 and 1949_Other possible entries are Done Sleeping, who won the Gold Cup , in 1950 for Alvin Untermeyer, but i lost carrying George T.

Respectfully, ROBERTA K. MASSIE, Commissioner of the Revenue Rappahannock Count/ HttlA Department ^: Say* fluoridation ^ Not Always Necessary “Fluoridation of public water supplies is not' mass medication. It is a simple means of protection of teeth against decay/’ Dr. Mack I. Shanholtz, State Health Commissioner, stated today. Dr. Shanholtz explained that in many communities the public water supplies naturally contained greater amounts of fluoride than 7 the State Health Department advocates. The ratio recommended by the department is one part fluoride to one million parts of water. “In sections of the country where as much as 3-15 parts or more per million of fluoride are naturally present in the water supply, the people have suffered no harmful effects whatsoever. Their teeth maybe mottled, but there is a great reduction in tooth decay among these people. In \1ew of these facts, we certainly have no reason to fear any harmful effects from the proportions we recommend,” Dr. Shanholtz said. “For years we have been using chlorine, alum, and other chemicals in our water. There have “never been any serious arguments about any of these chemicals. After adding fluoride to water, no harmful effects have been found for any of the personal, industrial or other uses of water,” he continued. According to Dr. Shanholtz, fluoridated water is especially effective in reducing tooth decay in young children. In some towns where fluoridation was begun, results show as much as a two-thirds reduction in tooth decay rates among children.. Lynchburg and ' Charlottesville were the first cities in Virginia to add fluoride to their water supplies. “Many other communities in the state have indicated a high degree of interest in the project,” Dr. Shanholtz concluded.

EXAMPLE IN PHILANTHROPY George Robert White, who died \Jhirty years ago, provided to his will that $2 out of every $3 of net profits his soap company earned was to go to some charitable institution. He also provided that this provision in his will was to remain unknown to the general public for thirty years. Recently, the Cuticura Corporation made public the thirty-year contributions of the firm to charity and reported they totaled |30,000,000. This money was given, to hospitals, museums and other institutions. Until this announcement the pubtic was unaware of Mr. White’s unpublicized chari- , ties. ' f#' M .% The officers of the present-day • Cuticura Corporation make an interesting appeal to other businesses in their announcement of the White policy. They urge other companies to follow Mr. White’s example, saying that each time they gave money for charitable purposes, their business increased. The officials are sure that, without the philanthropic policy, the company today would be nowhere near its present size and condition, t This unusual business success story is an example other firms .* —might well study. -’ J .

ROY JONES JEWELER_ Davis St. . ^CULPEPER On The Brink Collier's recently ran a long editorial, called “On the Brink of Socialism," that can be r«»ad with profit by every thinking American. The editorial was based on a current controversy in New York State. As a result of a new treaty between this country and Canada, a large additional amount of water is now available on the Niagara River for hydroelectric development. Cost of the project Will be about $350,000,0G0. Five private utility companies, which have been serving the state excellently for many years, are ready to go ahead with the project; and to finance itentirely with private capital. But authorization for this Is being delayed by groups which want to socialize Niagara power, by having the development carried on either by New York State or the Federal government. In eitheri case, of course, the taxpayers would do the paying and the politicians woud do the spending. Collier’s said, in part: “In the first place, this is hardly the time, when the President is asking for billions in new taxes, for his administration to propose spending the people’s money on something at no public expense. “Second, Washington proposes to assess the whole taxpaying population for the benefit of a small section of the pountry which is already being adequately serv ed, and which can be served in the future without additional taxation. “Third, the government’s proposal is another example of . . . Creeping Socialism . . . There is no historical justification for this type of federal competition with private business. And it is not fair competition. The government does not have to pay taxes. It is not even under any compulsion to make money. The private operator may, voluntarily or by legal compulsion, charge the most fair and reasonable rate for a profit7able operation. But the goVernment can always undersell him . 1. “The whole thing discloses symptoms of a quiet but disquieting move by the administration toward a philosophy of government which is foreign to our free institutions. We don’t like it. We object to it.” . 4 — The Niagara project doesn’t Involve navigation, flood control, or reclamation. It is an elective power project pure and simple. The sole question is whether we will have more socialism and more political dictatorship — or /whetherwe shall stick with the free enterprise system of doing things /which supports all our other freedoms.
