VOLUME 3—NUMBER 26 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, MAY 1, 1952 Sisks Win Clean-Up Campaign Award Mr. sad Mrs. Irving Sisk are to be congratulated on winning, the Improvement Award of $5 for the most achievement during the past year. The weather man behaved badly on Thursday and Friday, the two Kfinal days of the Second Annual ■Clean-Up Campaign in the Town l)f Washington, Virginia by sending a cold spring rain. Since this 'dampened the spirits of citizens’ last minute improvement much 'that had been planned had to be delayed until more favorable weather. Due to this situation the local anonymous judge made its decsion on the basis of the biggest improvement in the past year Tather than on the biggest improvement in the last several weeks as had been announced. Mr. and Mrs. Sisk deserve all the more credit for receiving the award when it is noted that their property extends from Main Street through to Gay Street and is seen «from both front and back. Viewed from either street it is the personification of neatness and enjoyed by all who see it. Last Year this award was won by Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Massie, Jr. whose property is also situated on Main Street extending through to Gay Street. Is this a co-incidence or an indication that residents of Main and Gay Streets are more property conscious? Johnson Family Re-union Set for Labor Day Labor Day was chosen *as the annual meeting date this year for tbe Johnson family reunion on Red Oak mountain, according to a decision announced by a meeting of the officers at the home of R. M. Johnson in Woodville on Thursday, April 24. The first Johnson family reunion was held on the Red Oak last year when, quoting one member of the family, "there were 130 Johnsons present, not counting dogs and children.” -E. E. Johnson, attorney of Culpeper, is president of Johnson Family, Inc., with C. E. Johnson, Jr., of Sperryville, vicepresident, and Mrs. R. M. Johnson of Woodville, secretary. The family has resolved to notify every member of the Johnson clan of the Labor Day reunion this year. The task is no small one, since the family spreads throughout many states. The family reunion is held at Red Oak, on land which is an original Johnson grant, still owned by a member of the family. _ The United Thank Offering of Trinity Episcopal Church will be presented at the 11 o’clock service Sunday, May 4 QUOTES FROM THE MOTOR VEHICLE CODE OF VIRGINIA FOR SAFETY BAKES "Every person riding a bicycle or an animal upon a roadway and egery person driving any animal shall be subject tg. the provisions of this chapter applicable to the driver of a'Vehicle, except those provisions which by their very nature can have, no application “Pedestrians shall not use the J highways or streets, other than the sidewalk thereof, for trend, except when necessary to do so because of the absence of sidewalks, reasonably suitable and passable for their use, in which case, if they walk upon the hard surface, or the main travel portion of the highway, they shall keep to the extreme left side or Iedge thereof, or where the shoulders of the highway are of sufficient width to permit, they may walk on either shoulder thereof/’ aaBsaaBsaBasaBBaBBBBSssasa #••>•• •MfMftMtttttfcMIMtiailtllMtMMtfeiMlltllttttftMintf I RAPP - OH ATS By: W.

By Elisabeth Fum It’s National Home Demonstration Week—anti during this special week a window display is on exhibit in one of Lea’s windows showing part of the topics demonstrated at the Home Demonstration Clubs the past year. Mrs. Jessie Rowsie, Miss Ruth Stevens and Mrs. Jack Woodard, a county committee planed this display. For the past two or three years the H. D. Clubs have been working on two long time goals: (a) Youth and Community Recreation and (b) Housing. . emprasis on living rooms, kitchens and adding water and bathroms. This year the clubs are continuing to carry the Federation Goal. . . Youth and Community Recreation but stressing the Youth. So far Flint Hill H.

Mrs. George Taylor, the county goal chairman is planning a trip to Washington, D. C. to see Congress in action and visit the White House since it has been redecorated.

Bv Johnson is making changes in her living room. She has changed the color of her walls to a lovely shade of green which blends very well with her oak woodwork. Her color plan includes a green lawson sofa, cinnamon rug and gold curtains. I’m certain Mrs. Johnson would enjoy showing her attractive arrangements of accessories. _Mrs,—Irving Sisk had a most attractvely arranged living room. Her choice of curtains was outstanding with her wall paper and other furnishings. A most .attractive and home like room, ivas commented by Miss Jamison in connection with Mrs. Jack Bruce’s living room. Mrs. Bruce ha3 big plans for her living room in the near future. Mrs. Jean Gallihugh recently has redecorated her living room, her color scheme being pleasing green, yellow and brown.

Snead has remodled her room changing the windows, adding new cabinets and a floor. When completing her kitchen as planned she will have an up to date laundry.

Subscription: .—- $2.00 a year WITH OTHER PAPERS (There can come some rare quotations if you read from editorials in small papers throughout these United States. There are about 10,000 weekly newspapers in the! many communities of the states and, though many weekly papers leave politics alone, some of them will speak out pretty plainly.) Here are a few samples: Collinsville (Conn.) Herald: Between now and November, every device that propaganda, promises, pledges, trickery, and conniving can contrive will De employed to whitewash the waste, corruption, and malfeansance that has grown and thrived in Washington under the Fair Deal banner. Somerset (Pa.) American: Some day Congress may create some offices that require a lot of workand the number of applicants will not be overwhelming. West Point (Miss.) Times Leader: While Senator Kefauver of Tennessee still leads in the race for the Democratic nomination for 'President, nobody seriously believes that he'll get the party nod. Neither will Senator Kerr, of Oklahoma, whose candidacy nobody is inclined to take seriously. And, much as we’d like to see Senator Russell as the head of the ticket, there’s little likelihood that he’ll be selected for the place. Right now, Governor Stevenson of Illinois, who isn’t a candidate, ap-, pears to be the most likejy choice. Kingsville (Texas) Record: (Issue of April 9) Well, Harry was mad as a porcupine with ingrowing quills last night.

But if the boys ha puts in charge of the steel plants are like the boys he’s had running the so-called Justice Department and the Treasury Department, the cash register is going to check short every night. Moore«riII« (N.C.) Tribune: Back in early 1332, when a dollar was worth 100 cents, the national debt was considerably under $ 20-billion. Then came Mr. Roosevelt and the New Deal with the statement that first efforts would! be to “balance the budget." That was probably the sorriest prediction of all time. The first 37 pages of our New Deal history book brings us to January, 1934, with Roosevelt announcing that he “hoped” to balance the budget by June, 1935. Thirty-five pages further finds Mr. Roosevelt saying that by June 30, 1936, the national debt might stand at over 334-billion. Not a word was said about balancing the budget. And the New Deal and Fair Deal spenders have rolled merrily along. The expression “balancing the budget” is now very much old hat—not to be thought of by the present enlightened Democratic administration. President Truman’s annual message to Congress on January 21 of this year boldly mentions an anticipated deficit of $14,446,000,000 for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1952. The national debt is ex-, pected to reach $274,922,000,000 by June 30, 1953. Still not a word about balancing the budget.

Criticism last week fell into the line of suggestions for the future and it was so unusual we are grabbing at the idea presented. A citizen of Rappahannock gave the following criticism and accompanying lecture of suggestions: “When you published the 'Pasture Edition of the county, weekly, that was fine for these beef cattle raisers. After all, they have one of the biggest businesses in the county. The special Apple Issues of the paper were all right, ■too. The fruit growers need to •be saluted for they, also, have one of the larger businesses of the county. “Rappahannock News has never put out a special issue on the biggest business in the county— Monkey B.usiness. And that’s the issue I want to read!” The critic then went at gredt lengths to explain how it was known that Monkey Business occupied so much time, energy, and money of the men of the county. It was asserted that most of the spare hours of the men—and I think the women were included, also—were county, it should be saluted with a special edition of the weekly paper. The printers of Rappahannock News aim to please. They try to publish the paper the iway the county folks want it. In contemplation of this future special Monkey Business edition, a definition of terms will be needed. What is “Monkey Business?” As soon as the answer to that simple question is located, the printers will begin work on the special edition. Mr. and Mrs. F. Clyde Baggarly have as their guests at “Avon Hall” Mrs. L.L. Kellett of Kansas City, Missouri. WASHINGTON THEATRE start at 7:15 and 9 P.

They say that a sudden fright will stop the hiccoughs.” There was silence for a while. ^ In a fqw minutes the Commissioner of Revenue walked up the hall and spoke quietly to the lady. “I think there must be some mistake in your tax declaration.

SPRAY MATERIALS By A. H• Teske The rernS.k is often heard, “Why is it that at the present time the spray programs call for many applications when frtvt growers used to produce good fruit with as little as three or four sprays ...” The answer is not difficult when it is consider ed that in those days there Were only two or three insects that were giving fruit growers any real concern, the two most important insects being San Jose scale and codling moth.-Among the diseases apple scab was the No1 problem. Even as late as the early thirties the Virginia spray program called for only four or five applications on both apples and peaches. As fruit growing became more extensive and more intensive, with better annual cropping and marketing comoeth-'oTi demanding leaner fnrt better size and color, insect and disease problems increased. San Jose scale and codling moth ;nfestations built up. New' pests made th"ir appearance such as scurfy and other scales, mites, leaf rollers, case bearers, and Oriental fruit moth. Curculio and rosy aphis came in for mofe attention. On the disease side scab control became more of a problem. Cedar rust, Brooks spot, and bitter rot had to 1* contended with. Liquid lime sulfur and arsenate of lead, the old standbys for San Jose scale and coding moth, no longer met the needs for effective insect control. Liqftid lime sulfur and Bordeaux mixture were no longer adequate to control diseases. The old barrel pump with the bamboo, single nozzle, rod no longer did the job. Gasoline powered outfits with larger pump and tank capacity came into the picture and were followed by the larger capacity portable sprayers and stationary set-ups- To speed up operations, to save man power, and to add greater efficiency portable booms came into use which were quickly followed by speed sprayers and the development of the presentday concentrate machines. It is not surprising to find that the spray programs of yester-year could not be expected to meet the many changes and problems that must be met by the industry under presentday conditions. One cannot help but marvel at the rapid development and improvement that has taken place in spray, chemicals, equipment, and methods of applying sprays in recent years. These changes have come about because of the great need for letter insect and disease control, for more accurate timing,, faster spraying, more uniform and thorough coverage with less labor, and to meet the ever growing demand for larger annual yields of fruit that has desired size, color, and finish. Spraying costs have reached an all time record high- It is the writer s opinion that from now on it should be possible to do something in the direction of bringing these costs down. One reason for this line of thought is that spraying problems have not appeared in bunches but as individual problems, making it nec% essary to put concentrated effort on one particular thing which in most cases has been to develop a material which would lie specific—in the case of insects, for the control of one insect. For example, Parathion came into use as a miticide. At present at has l>een found that it is an effective material for a large number of. insects. There are many such examples. For instance, up until the late twenties, growers had no satisfactory amtrol for rosy aphis. Then came the tar-oils and later the dinitro chemicals ,whiph made positive control of rosy aphis possible. As mentioned, these materials are specific for this insect and must be put on when the trees are dormant which is not always convenient. Today there are available such insecttides as B.H.C. and Parathion which are effective against aphis. It is now not necessary to depend noon a dormant spray to control aphis. These materials not only provide a greater leeway in spraying time but they may be combined with other materials and give an opportunity to reduce the number of spray applications. At the same time these spray chemicals are dependable for the control of many other insects. Leaf roller and mites have caused increasing concern to fruit growers. The phosphate insecticides (Parathion, E-P.N.-300, etc.), while they offer an effective control for these pests, a search for better materials is being continued. By the middle thirties lead arsenate, the old stand* by poison, cotild not be depended upon to give satisfactory control of codling moth, Oriental fruit moth, ' and certain other insects. The development of DDT has solved the control problem for these insects. In like manner, progress has been made in the control of fruit diseases. An outstanding example is ^ the development of Ferl>am for the control of cedar and quince rusts, for which previous to lv>39 the cutting of cedar trees was the only * remedy. Not only is Ferbam a specific for controlling rusts but it has brought to the fruit industry a fungicide with advantages over sulfur and Bordeaux mixture Liquid lime sulfur for many years was ocnsidered to be the No. 1 furgicide for use as a scab eradicant; that is, a material that will burn out scab after infection has taken place- While it is effective in this respect, it may cause serious injury to leaves, fru't, and fruit set. Now, there are available organic mercury compounds, which when applied at the proper time are effective in preventing scab infection and as an eradicant. They have the advantage over liquid lime sulfur is that they are safer from the standpoint cf injury to leaves and fruit. They do not reduce fruit set, and the apples have better finish at harvest time when the mercury sprays are used properly. Hand thinning of fruit has always been a costly and time-consuming operation; so much so, that many growers did not thin their fruit. Progress has been made in finding chemicals that may be used to good advantage to replace the hand-thinning method. Chemical thinning sprays make it possible to do the job quickly and early enough to bring about annual bearing on apple varieties that have a habit of setting heavy crops every other year. The importance of Chemical thinning sprays has not been fully appreciated, especially their value in improving annual yields, stabilizing production—to say nothing of producing the kind of fruit consumers want most. While chemical thinning sprays have not been perfected to the extent that is possible to make specific recommendations, their use offers great possibilities.. It has not l>eeti so mar y years »Ro that apple growers suffered losses running into the hundreds of thousands of dollars each year liecause of the large quantity of apples that dropped op the ground before they were harvested. With production costs increasing and greater consumer demand for higher quality fruit, one of the big problems of the apple industry was to find some way of holding the fruit on the trees until it could lie picked. The discovery of hormone sprays, or stop-drop sprays, as they are commonly called, to prevent pre-harvest dropping of apples has made it possible to reduce losses from dropping to a fraction of what they were before stop-drop spray materials were available. These sprays make it possible to harvest fruit at a, better state of maturity and to secure higher color, all of which means improvement in quality which is so necessary in meeting present-day competition. From the statements that have lieen made in this article it is very evident that tremendous progress has been made in meeting the spray material needs of the fruit industry for effective and efficient insect and disease situation that may develop. With such a large number of chemicals to choose from, it is evident that there would lie no end to the number of materials and the number of sprays that mav be used it a spray program, is adapted on specificity of chemicals fo reach individual insect and disease control problem. The cost of such a program could well be excessive and much out of proportion with the result - obtained. For the greatest efficiency at the lowest cost a spray program should make use of the spray materials that have the widest range for insect and disease control and which when used alone or in combination will carry the minimum of risk of injury to trees and fruits. The spray programs that are suggest in the 1952 Spray Bulletin have taken into consideration these factors. It must be kept in mind that these programs are general and may require some changes to meet the needs of individual orchards. The fruit industry as well as all other industries is operating in an age of mechanization and precision: and that being the situation, it is important, fruit growers, and more especially when it comes to the spraying operation that more consideration be given to precision thinking, planning, timing, and methods of applying sprays. This is one of the most important and critical periods of the whole spraying season. While the time for applying the dormant and delayed dormant sprays is past, a statement regarding these sprays may be of some value in planning the 1953 spray program. The dormant and delayed dormant sprays for apples are designed primarily to control scale insects and rosy aphis. Inasmuch as spray materials are now available, which are used in the later sprays, with which satisfactory control of scale and rosy aphis may be controlled in the early cover sprays, gowers may well give consideration to omitting the dormant and delayed sprays except in orchards where there is present a medium to heavy infestation of scale. This would make possible a considerable saving. I're-t’wk Spray The next few weeks, considering weather predictions, will be favorable for the development and spread of apple scab and rust diseases. Scab and rust control is becoming more serious because Virginia is increasing her production of Red Delicious and other varieties that are especially susceptible to scab and rust infection. The pre-pink spray is one of-fhe most important sprays for scab control on these varieties. From the standpoint of economy and effectiveness, liquid lime sulfur at the rate of six quarts or six pounds of dry lime sulfur in one hundred gallons is recommended for this spray. For l>est results and in view of the forecast for more rainy weather than usual, this spray should be put onahead of rains The Pink Spray A large percentage of the scab spores on the old leaves on the ground from which primary scab infection takes place are mature, and considering what the weather man has predicted, the pink spray promises to be a critical spray for scab and rust control. Ordinarily liquid ume suitur would be the recom mended fungicide for this spray: but inasmuch as this material may reduce the set materially oh Red Delicious and because of the importance of cedar and quince rust control, it is suggested that flotation sulfur at the rate of twelve pounds, or the equivalent of other good paste sulfur, b^ used plus three-fourths of a pound of Ferbam in one hundred gallons. Where no material has* been previously used for the control of rosy aphis, add two and one-half pounds of a 10 per cent B-H.C. powder. Bloom Spray If there is a long period between the pink and petal-full spray, bloom spray would be advisable, especially if rains occur during this time- For the bloom spray either Ferbam at the rate of one pound in one hundred gallons or a combination of Ferbam and sulfur can be used. If a situation has developed where there is danger that scab infection has taken place, an organic mercury spray could be used. Petal-Fall Spray This application is a front-line defense for scab, rusts, and insects. If a bloom spray has been used, starting of this spray can be delayed until all of the petals have dropped. W here no bloom spray was applied, this spray should be started when about three-fourths of the petals have fallen. In orchards where cedar and quince rusts are not a problem, use twelve pounds of flotation sulfur or other good pasts sulfur at an equivalent rate. For rust control add three-fourths of a pound of Ferbam in each one hundred gallons, plus three pounds of arsenate of lead; for coddling moth and curculio, add three pounds of spray lime. In addition, if no material has previously been used for mites and mites are present, put in onehalf pound of E.P.N.-300 or three fourths pound of a 15 per cent garathion powder in each one hundred gallons of spray. There is a possibility of reducing the cost in this spray. If coddling moth has not been a problem and leaf roller has given trouble, a 50 per cent Rothane powder at the rate of one and one-half pounds in one hundred gallons could be used instead of the arsenate of lead. It should be kept in mind-that, white Rhothane is effective against the codling moths, it is much more inferior to arsenaff of lead in killing the codling moth worms. Nor does Rhothane have the residual effect that arsenate of lead has. First Cover Sprays In most seasons this spray, is important in controlling scab and rust diseases^ and it is also a time whet, there is danger of blotch infection. So it is necessary to continue tp use a* fungicide. For this spray use ten pounds of flotation sulfur or six pounds of dry wettable sulfur, plus one pound of Ferbam in one hundred gallons, plus three pounds of lead arsenate anti one and one-half pounds of a 50% Rhothane powder. If mites arc present, use a miaicide in the spray. Now, then, if Rhothane was used in the petal-fall spray instead of lead arsenate, the Rhothane may be omitted in this spray if there is no evidence that leaf roller are present. Second Cover Spray The materials to be used in the spray for disease control will depend somewhat upon the weather. If the weather remains cool and moisture is plentiful, sulfur alone or a combination of sulfur and Ferbam may be used. For sulfur alone use ten pounds of flotation paste or five pounds of a dry wettable sulfur in one hundred gallons qr a combination of eight pounds of flotation sulfur and four pounds of a dry wettable sulfur plus one pound of Ferbam. If the weather is warm, it is advisable to use one and one-half pounds of Ferbam alone in one hundred gallons to avoid sulfur injury. To the fungicide should be added two pounds of a 50 per cent DDT powder or one and one-third pounds of a 75 per sent DDT powder for insect control- Before starting this spray a careful check-up should be made in the orchard on the mite ami leaf roller situation; and if needed, insecticides should be added to the spray for their control. * Third Cover Spray This spray is an important codling moth spray, and if scab infection has not taken place, the fungicide may be omitted. If protection againnst diseases is necessary, use one and one-half pounds of Ferbam, THE EDUCATION OF A PHARMACIST THE DRUGGIST IS REQUIRED TO KNOW INFANT CARE Much of the druggist's work is with pediatricians and with mothers. Not only does he compound drugs and diet supplements for baby's well-being, but he also sells baby scales, diapers, and a host of other nnrsery necessities. In the college of pharmacy, he is wellgrounded in infant care to prepare- him for his future career. Your Druggist Is Trained To Serve Your Health Needs LEWIS PHARMACY DIAL 8322 CULPEPER, VA. PRESCRIPTIONS ACCURATELY COMPOUNDED plus two pounds of a 50 per cent DDT powder or one and ohe-third pounds of a 75 per cent DDT powder in ‘each one lymdred gallons. A thorough check-up on mites and leaf roller should be made before starting this spray. Fourth Cover Spray In 1951 many growers failed to apply this spray at the proper time, which resulted in codling moth trouble later in the season. This is an important spray for such diseases as Bitter Rot, Blotch, and Brooks Spot, and it is advisable to use either Ferbam at the rate of one and one-half pounds in one hundred gallons or a 2-4-100 Bordeaux mixture, plus DDT as recommended in the previous spray for insect control Fifth Cover Spray This spray is applied primarily for protection against leaf roller and Japanese beetles. Correct timing of this spray is important and depends upon- the time when the worms of the second brood leaf roller become active. Use one and one-half pounds of a 50 per cent Rhothane powder in one hundred gallons plus one and one-half pounds of Ferbatn dr 2-4100 if a fungicide is needed. It is advisable to add a spreader if Ferbam is used in this spray. Sixth Cover Spray This has often been on of the most important insect sprays in the whole spray program. It is an important spray for Bitter Rot, Black Rot, and Blotch. For the insecticide use two pounds of 50 per cent or one and one-thirds of a 75 per cent dry wettable DDT powder in one hundred gallons for the control of codling moth, Japanese beetle, and caterpillars, plus one and one-half pounds of Ferbatn or 2-4-100 Bordeaux mixture- If Ferbam is used, a spreader should be added to prevent spotting. As mentioned previously, the spray is general, and it may be necessary to vary or change it to meet the insect and disease situation in the individual orchards. Elevation, slope, and exposure all have an influence on insect and disease behaviour activity and should be given careful consideration in planning the spray program and in timing and applying the sprays.
