All guide rails, posts, and signs along the highways are getting a fresh groat of white paint and black boots and caps. According to a proclamation by Dorothy C. Davis, mayor of Washington, the county seat is setting April 25 as clean-up day in the town. .

CARE OF BOXWOOD by A. G. Smith, Jr., associate horticulturist of VPI “Most boxwood troubles are man-made. In a fairly good environment, this grand old plant can take care of itself. Many yards nave been filled with soil from the basement. The safest plan in such •oil is to dig a large hole where each boxwood is to grow and fill in with good loam. It is a shallow rooted plant and eannotv survive planting too deeply or ^digging around the roots. Over fertilization may call for excessive pruning to keep the plants within bounds. Pruning boxwood is a necessary and important operation. The best time for pruning is just before" growth starts in the spring. Start by removing (weak and crowded branches from the top center of the plant. Where necessary, shorten the larger branches. Continue this thinning of branches over entire upper half of plant. This operation will keep plant at the desired Size. In dwarf plants, remove all -dead leaves that have fallen into the branches. Allow light and ah to . reach all parts of the plant. Crbwding will kill the foliage and branches. ’ ■ / SCHEDULE FOR NEXT WEEK Monday, April 7, Flint Hill 4-H at 10:46 a.m. Washington Ifcrv 4-H at 2:20 p.m. , ^ Tuesday, Aprils, SperryviUe HD Culpeper Farmers Co-op.

MEN’S "BABY REVUE” • REMAINS GUARDED SECRET Whether the men just don’t know what the program at Sperryville is all about, or whether they just refuse to tell gives rise to mach speculation as to what the men of the county are planning for tins all-male “Baby Revue” scheduled for Friday night, April 4, Tales say that Downing Wood is the “baby” and they roll him onto " the stage in a wheelbarrow—but no one will swear to the truth of the 1 statement.

Any “doubting-thomas” may see the egg ^ RAPP - OHATS By: W. H. Lyno . County Agent . A real opportunity for some one to start, or expand, a registered Hampshire flock of sheep'will be at the Dolmont Farm sale'scheduled to start at 10 K>0 a.m. Saturday, April 12. In 1946, Mr. Dolph purchased 13 head from the Staunton Bred Ewe Sale for approximately $1800 and sheep in those days were sell* ing at much smaller figures than they fetch today. With this foundation and through the use of Lawson and Moss rams as iwell as rams from Lunsford Farms, two of the oldest breeders of high quality Hampshires in the state, Mr. Dolph has kept up the quality of the individual as well as the popularity of their respective blood lines. As I recall the original thirteen ewes purchased were among the first fifteen placed at the Staunton sale and included the grand champion Hamp of them all. This ewe’s picture graces the walls of our office. There will be a total of twenty registered ewes auctioned of which ten have twelve lambs at side with those remaining heavy with lamb. The majority are five years of age and under however there are three of the origional ewes included which were bred by E. W. ; Armstrong and C, C. Funkhouser. " In addition, there, are four registered rams, (last years crop) which are out of these ewes and sired by a Lunsford bred nun. While I haven't seen these rams since last fall at that time they werevery promising etpeciallyas sires in commercial flocks. It is said that proof of the pudding is in the eating. Such being the case I might well add that I am now using three rams originating from this flock and each has proven an excellent sire. In fact lambs from a Dolomont bred ram that were marketed in 1951 graded: 18 prime, 2 choice, and 1 good; average 951 lbs. at 4| months; and were out of western type ewes. • Went back to the Beef Cattle Research Center Thursday to get more information on the bulls to be offered at the sale to be held there April 9. Looks like there will be around forty bulls, more or less to be auctioned so maybe ‘twill be enough to go around without prices going too high. Actually I'd hate to try and say just what is “too high” for any good registered bull much less one on which you know his exact rate of gain which is believed to be hisrhkr transmissable. Its ‘agin regulations for any detailed Research information to be published without prior approval of the Bureau of Animal Information, (Government Red Tape), however I trust the following will not get Bob Priode in any trouble. The October 17 and March 26 weights on each Hereford, Angus, and Shorthorn bull are at my office. The majority averaged better than two pounds gain per day during this 161 day period. The top Hereford bull gained up to last /Wednesday 379 lbs., while the top Angus put on 397 lbs., (incidentally this is the grandson of Highlands General 44th I wrote about in last week’s News) and the leading Shorthorn gained 456 lbs. Actually none were not on a high concentrate ration but one that really stimulated barrel development and still gave good results. Now hold your breath, here is the ration that I advised you cattle feeders to think about: 500 lbe. corn and cob meal (5/8 inch RAPINCHATS, w Fox Bounty Placed In Wakefield District With all meiribers present, the Board of Supervisors met Wednesday. A motion was passed placing a bounty of $3 on all gray foxes killed in Wakefield district. Richard Worthington, resident engineer, appeared before the board. A resolution, made by H. B. Wood and seconded by J. P. Cook, was passed requesting the state to condemn a small piece of property on the extension of Route 730 in Rappahannock from the Culpeper county line to Route 211. Routine bills were paid; necessary repairs to kitchen, and other rooms at the jail were authorized; and the purchase of an adding machine for the office of the Commissioner of Revenue was approved. New Minister's Home Opened at Spenryvile ™ -The new home lor the minuter of the Assemblies of God church in Sperryville is being occupied' this week by Mr. and Mrs. Luther Harrington. The house contains five rooms and bath and is located on highway 600, a portion of the old Broy property. The location affords one of the most beautiful mountain views in the county. The lot was given by Mr. and Mrs. Edward Woodward and most of the labor was donated by members and friends of the church, including Charles Sisk, Judd Burke, John Cooke, James Cooke, Luther Harrington, David Cooke, George Alther, James Clatterbuck, and - Rev. C. Iff. Wood. Charlie frazier and Albert Cooks also contributed' their time. A member of the Episcopal church in JSperryville also helped.

H.-> Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia. Subscription: .... $2.00 a year ‘Pop Your Whip* By request. Airs. Cain's editorial is reprinted in entirety. Several people stated they never saw the whole letter. Dear Mr. Snyder: Today I filed my income tax return.' In the spot reserved for social security (so-called) you will note that I advise you NONE is due. Moreover, I have closed my bank account and declared through my newspaper that my husband is in no way responsible for either the' Summit Sun or Mary D. Cain, his wife. This is to make sure that whatever recourse you take to force me to pay this outrageous demand will be brought to the attention of the public. In short, you must either confiscate my business or put me in prison. Frankly, I hope you will take the latter course, because "then rftr' people of' " America wiliT realize to what a pretty pass we have come in this country when one can be imprisoned or heavily fined for simply doing what has ever been considered the honorable, American way of living: taking care of one's own old age. — There are many reasons why I am refusing to pay this so-called tax which is supposed to buy me so-called old age insurance. Briefly, here are a few: 1. The social security program, added to the equally iniquitous and confiscatory income tax program, is the hub around Which the whole wheel of communism revolves in this country. I cannot bring myself to lend further sanction to it. I went along in the matter of paying it for employes because I had no wish to implicate them but if I ever hire another printer—(I—am- without one at the present), this is your official notification that I have no intention of paying it for him either. I have had enough of it- _ ■ ,_ 2. The scheme is unconstitutional.

Frankly, at the rate we’re going in this country, we won’t have a shirt-tail left by the time I’m 65! (And working people are becoming increasingly shortlived II 3. The scheme is a definite encroachment upon private insurance business. If the government has the right to engage in ' the sale of insurance—not even on a competitive basis, but on a COMPULSORY basis —hasn’t it a similar right to ^engage in the printing business, which happens to be my own trade It is not my ox that is being gored, but the ox is an American ox and I cannot willingly see it slaughtered. Insurance people, like many others, thought the program would be “a help" when it began. Now they are beginning to see the communistic beginning in its true light4. The scheme is immoral and actually illegal for it robs, although it is clothed in the garments of Congressional sanction. The billions of social security have been squandered, not kept in a trust fund. Any insurance company that did such a thing would have landed behind the penitentiary bars long since! 5. Its status is indefinite, Is a tax? If so, why not be honest about it (Excuse it, please. I forgot the policy of the New Deal administration!) Is it insurance? Then why not call it by its proper name? It is neither fish nor fowl. But if it be TAX, where is the authority to levy this ADDITIONAL tax over and above INCOME TAX? If it be insurance, when and how did the government get the right to engage in insurance business for non-military people ? * 6. The scheme is unAmerican. The whole theory of, Americanism is independence, self-reliance, pride, and - self-respect; it- is a theory of indi- ' vidualism. Americanism seeks to build sane, sound, “wise and frugal” government; it does not lend itself to plans which will ultimately destroy us. Under this iniquitous compulsory EDICT.

Freedom, which cam to Americans from God and their own efforts to preserve it, is almost entirely lost. Under so-called social security, busines is no longer free or private; sanctity of the home may be violated at any moment by some Federal Gestapo member who comes to investigate whether or not women' have paid social security for their domestic servants, baby sitters or yard boys (if anybody can get-one). A man’s home is no longer his castle in America. c. Social security, added to the equally infamous and confiscatory income tax, makes possible the rottenly communistic program of public welfare, public housing, public power, subsidies to farmers, veterans and business men, unemployment insurance (which breeds idleness), inroads that are now threatening the fields of education and medicine, and all the other rotten innovations that make people think they are getting “something fof nothing.” Nor can I omit United Nations. This, perhaps, is the worse of. all the indignities visited upon American people* I have no desire to assist in digging further the grave of my American liberty. 9. I have all the insurance I want or need and I don’t want ANY that stems from this rotten New Deal which has taken from the people of this nation in the last 6% years more than $260 billions and STILL is $260 billions in the red.

We’ve come along a few years sinfce that day and we use the word fool in many quotes throughout life: "fools rush in where angels fears” "there’s no fool like an old;” and “what fools we mortals be!” Or, as recently heard: "you don’t have to be a fool to be a surgeon, but it helps a lot.” That’s such a nice saying; one can substitute any word he pleases for “surgeon," like printer, or farmer, or doctor, lawyer, a Indian-chief. • With the first warm spring days at hand, the youngsters are begging to go barefooted. It’s nice to know children have so few problems these days. They don’t have to go through the agonies of those long-handles inflicted upon ch'ldren of a previous day.

The space was small No doubt for all, But what should three bugs do? Three little bugs in a basket, And the beds but two would hold, /Aid so they fell to quarreling. The black, the white, and the gold. And two of the bugs / Got under the rugs, And one was left in the cold. Three little bugs in a basket, And hardly crumbs for two; And all were selfish in their hearts, ihe same as 1 or you. So the strong ones said, “We will eat the bread. And that's what we will do." So he that was left in the basket Without a crumb to chew, Or a shred to wrap himself withal When the wind across him blew, Pulled onei of the rugs From one of the bugs. . . And so the quarrel grew. Ai.id so there was WAR in the basket, Ah, pity 'tis, ’tis true; And he that was frozen and starved, at last, ' A strength from his weakness drew. And pulled both of the bugs From under the rugs, Aiid killed and ate them, .too. Now, when bugs live in a basket, Though more than it can hold; It seems to me they had better agree, The black, the white, and the gold, And share what comes Of bed and crumbs. And leave no bug in the cold.

They will never be called upon to attempt to hide long-drawers under long white stockings when they get dolled up in their Easter finery. Now, if all the other problems of . childhood could be discarded—like the long-handles—wouldn’t it be fine ?

Bankers Agrete Inflation Is Checked .■ f; It may not ease your mind much to know it, but that <58 cent dollar you hear so much about is worth only one cent less than the dollar Of a year ago this month. That’s one way of saying that inflation has been pretty well checked during the past year, according to J. Rodes Brown, Jr., cashier, of Rappahannock National Bank. • A ... J CA1 agv blUO UU/I1VU wuv vvueumer price index of the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed that a dollar was worth 54 cents in terras of its 1935-39 purchasing power, Mr. Brown said today, j > The boom following«War II shot prices up-—and the dollar’s value down, he explained. In com-, parsion wth its 190 cents worth in the 1935-39 years, a dollar was worth only 67 cents in the fall of 1948. It picked up a little in 1949 and early 1950, but the outbreak of the Korean war sent buyers on— a spree and prices rose sharply, to the detriment of the dollar. A year ago at this time prices were still going up. Inflation was the order of the day. The dollar would buy only 54 cents worth of consumer ’^oods. It was then—a year ago this week—that the bankers of the country decided to do something about it. They set up a Voluntary Credit Restraint Program with the expressed purpose of cutting down on loans for. non-essential and speculatTveHpurposes in order to channel funds into defense and defense-supporting activities. ; The idea behind the program eras this: Bank loans add to the money supply. An expanded money supply without a comparable increase in the volume of goods available for purchase means, traditionally and automatically, a rise in the price of things people want. With a war on, money advanced by banks ought properly to be channeled into the production of goods for defense rather than ; into non-essential things which would only add to the money supply and further depress the value of the dollar. The credit restraint program in Its year of ^operation has gone a long way to * accomplishing that purpose. Non-essential lending has been cut down all over the country as well as in this area. Other factors got into the act, too, of course. The Federal government clamped on some credit restraining restrictions; price controls had some effect; and most important, people relaxed their “scare-buying” assults on merchants’ shelves and began to increase their saving. The result was that, despite inflationary pressures, the dollar lost only a penny’s worth of purchasing power during the year. Bankers aren’t claiming particular credit for halting inflation, and they warn that the year ahead may see inflation threatening again. But the country’s monetary authorities have-not hesitated—to^ salute the bankers for their help. As seen in t CHARM and GLAMOUR!

The program has been an important factor in holding prices level during the year.” “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty,” Mr. Brown said. “But eternal vigilance also has a bearing on the price of a cut of round steak.

CULPEPER SOCIAL SECURITY , The new starting date for figwr’ ftig old-age arid survivors insurance benefit payments is import-, ant to everyone now employed or self-employed in work covered by social security. ’ * " - In explanation of this statement Miss Lois Cockey, field representative of the Alexandria social secur. ity office, points out that work ' after 1950 can be used alone for figuring the amount of the benefit payment. Everyone who has been in work covered by social security continuously since January 1, 1951, will be fully insured by the middle of the present year. If he creaches age 65 and decides to retire, he will be eligible for old-age benefit payments; if he should die after a year and a half of covered work after 1950, his survivors can get benefit payments. He and his family will have this insurance protection until July 1954. They will continue to have this protection if he stays in ‘covered work for at least one-half the time after 1950 and up to the tmie of retirement at age 65 or later, or up to the time of his death. Miss Cockey advises everyone who plans to retire during 1952 to contact the Alexandria office before making a descision; For the convenience of residents of Rap: pahannock County, Miss Cockey is at the County Agent’s office, Court House, Washington, the second Thursday of each month at 1 p.m. Mrs. Roadcap Atkins and daughter spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrsv Aibert Clarke.
