Harrison accepted renomination and declared that Virginia Democrats ‘believe true party loyalty is demonstrated by loyalty to true party principles.” A fellow Winchester attorney and longtime friend, J Sloan Kuyendall, placed his name in nomination. When the roll call was partially complete, it became so obvious that the vote .would be unanimous in nominating Rep. Harrison that E. M. Jones, a delegate from Rappahannock, made a motion that the meeting dispense with the roll call and make the nomination unanimous by a rising vote. The motion met enthusiastic response. Representative Harrison spoke t “The people of Virginia enjoy progressive government at minimum cost because the Democratic Party of Virginia adheres, through the sincere personal convictions of its members, to true principles of Democracy,” Mr. Harrison said. “The Democrats of Virginia have raised the banner of these principles * in Washing ton." ' ' ' “There, we 'have encountered some opposition,” he added.' ' ’ In Congress, he said, the work of Virginians “has not been mere* ly negative.” Citing exemples, Mr. Harrison noted that “top communists now behind Federal prison bars were convicted under a law Written by a Virginia Democrat,” B * “The scandalous waste did corruption in the procurement of military supplies .was laid bare by A committee headed by a Virginia Democrat,” he continued. “An outrageous attempt to write punitive and discriminatory provisions against the American farmer into the Price and Wage Stabilization Act was frustrated on the motion of a Virginia Democrat. The Hope-Flanagan Act, incorporating provisions which have come to be known as Agriculture's Bill of Eights, had a Virginia Democrat as one of its sponsors. “A joint committee headed by a Virginia Democrat has won praise from the Nation for its invaluable work in bringing to light extravagant spending policies in the Federal Government. That same ‘ Virginia Democrat, noting the President’s statement that his budget could not be. reduced, drafted a substitute budget which revealed plainly where savings amounting to ten billion dollars could be -made.;-, .-y 'f “Yet another Virginia Demoocrat is regarded in the Senate, M he was in the House, as chiefly responsible for1 the development of 1 constructive national policy for the conservation of natural resources.”, £ v# In his nominating speech, Mr. ppykendall. had referred to Mr. {N arris on’s Congressional service 41 (See ‘HARRISON, page 3) . ; .

Supervisors Positions'are now open for Dairy Herd Improvement Associations Supervisors in the following associations : Nottoway, Orange, Prince William # 1, Tidewater No. 1, and King William. Vacancies are expected in two or three other associations by the time the next training course will be completed. These positions , pay $250 to $325 per month including board and room. With the next training course to be held at VPI scheduled for June 9-21, 1952 a good opportunity for some Rappahannock High School graduate exists. Applications should be in the VPI Dairy Department office by . June 2 and are available at this office. There are great educational opportunities in D.H.I.A. Supervisory work, for anyone, interested. Many men go into this work on a career basis and become as valuable to each D.H.I.A. member as a herd manager. These men usually have in this work to get other employment in the dairy industry such as: Dairy Farm and Herd managers, Dairy Farmers, Dairy Fieldmen and other prominent positions in the commercial field of the dairy industry. Should any young man of the county be interested contact me at the office or at home some evening. • « '.-Ov. ^ vy’^ United Wool Growers District it.

Why not a director from Rappahannock? ? ? ? * Soil Testing/Facilities Used By Farmers More-. Virginia fanners are taking advantage of the soil-testing facilities at VPI than ever before, says W. W. Lewis, agronomist, VPI Agricultural Extension Service. He says over 14,600 soil samples have been run in the laboratory in the agronomy department at ,the college during the first four months of 1953. , /* soil test will give the ph of the soil, showing how much lime, if any, ' ii needed for a particular crop; and also will give the^ fertility level of other important plant foods such as phosphate and potash. “It’s good common sense to test soils,” Lewis says. “By testing soils farmers will know how much lime is needed, and will have an indication of the right analysis fertilizer to use.” May, June, and July usually are slack months in the soil testing laboratories, and farmers can be assured of quicker service than during other months of the year. Also, this is the proper time to send in samples from land where pastures and alfalfa are to be seeded this fall. It is advisable to use lime several months; ahead of seeding time on land which tests low in ph. Farmers can get soil record sheets, with instructions on taking samples, soil boxes, and shipping cartons from county agents or other agricultural workers in the county. ' a R. E.

The program portrays two phases of spring: “April showers bring May flowers” and “In spring a young man’s fancy ...” The former is suggested by ballet numbers: snowflakes, sunshine, raindrops, which cause the flowers to awaken and bloom. The second phase pictures the' various associations of spring: lovers in the park, birds, butterflies, bees, basball, marbles, and dancing. The public is invited to attend tho program.

Subscription: .... $2.00 a year America's March TO COMMUNISM By DeWitt Emery (Editor’s note: Mr. Emery is president of the National Small Businessmen’s Association. It is rather a paradox that while America is spending billions of dollars to fight communism abroad, we have already adopted a great deal of it here at home.. In 1848, Karl Marx, the intellectual father of communism, wrote the Communist Manifesto listing the measures he thought necessary to bring communism to a nation. Communism, of course, is merely a*variety of socialism. Marx called himself a socialist and Communist Russia is the Union of Soviet “Socialist” Republics. The points in Marx’s now iarnous Communist Manifesto pro vide a convenient summary of the communist program, and come from the father of socialism himself. How far has the U.S. gone along the course it outlined? In the Communist Manifesto £arl Marx demanded: “A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.” In America, the 16th Amendment, which became effective in 1313, provided: “The Congress shall have power to lay and collect j taxes on income from whatever source derived without apportionment among the several states, and without regard to any census or enumeration.” In 1913 the normal tax was 1% plus a surtax of 1% to 6% of all incomes over $20,000. In 1960 the rate had been increased on incomes from $2,000 to $4,000 to 22 %; and on incomes in excess of $200,000, to 91%. The 16th amendment opened the way to the “heavy progressive or graduated income tax,” the first plank in the Marx program of communism. In the Communist Manifesto Karl Marx next called •for : “The abolition of all right of inheritance.” In America in 1916 the top federal tax on inheritance was 10%. By 1950 the maximum rate had reached 77%. America had moved three-fourths of the way to the complete acceptance of another PITTS FRONT ROYAL THURSDAY, MAY 8 MARLENE DIETRICH * JAMES STEWART — In — ‘DESTRY RIDES AGAIN* FRI. - SAT., MAY 9 - 19 LUM end ABNER * — in — MGOIN* TO TOWN** SUN. - MON., MAY 11 - 12 DANA ANDREWS JOAN EVANS — in — “EDGE OF DOOM** TUESDAY, MAY IS ; GEORGE RAFT CLAIRE TREVOR “I STOLE A MILLION” WED. - THUR., MAY 14 - IS The Story of The Stars 69 STARS — in — "FOLLOW THE BOYS** ■ ■•■fMaMMMaBMMMlg communist tenet. • if,:: In the Cofrununitft Manifesto Karl Marx also demanded : "Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state.** . t v-c ' --.. # »-*j! Today in America, the federal government has invested, committed or guaranteed 160 billion dollars in various business enterprises. Some of these enterprises: 1. Produce and sell - electric power. \ 2. Operate railways and ships. v 3. Buy and sell farm products. 4. Smelt and sell metal. 6. Engage in lending money. 6. Guarantee about 90 billion dollars of deposits and mortgages. 7. Write about 40 billion dollars of insurance. Here again America has gone , far toward “Extension of .factories and instruments of production owned by the State.” In the Communist Manifesto Karl Marx demanded : “Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.” In America today the executive branch of the federal government working through the Federal Reserve System, has far-reaching control over the entire banking business. The U.S. government is the world’s largest banker and guarantor of credit. In 1960 the loans, loan-guarantees and credit commitments of government lend ing agencies exceeded 26 million dollars, which is more than onehalf the total loans outstanding in the nation’s 14,000 commercial banks.

The American people have been Steered to the socialist path and have traveled far along it. Who is to blame for this? All who liave looked to government for special privileges for themselves or for others. And what is the solution if we are to stop this march to communism? Each of us must understand a*nd insist on this moral purpose of government: “To make and enforce laws which protect each individual’s life, liberty and property from the interference of any other individual or group— and these laws must also protect the people from government itself.” SOCIAL SECURITY SWINDLE By George Peek The other, evening I listened on the radio to Vice-President Alben W. Barkley. The Veep was in good form and when he's good, he’s awfully good. The gentleman from Kentucky always has had “the gift of gab," and the passing of the years has not dimmed his oratorical powers nor his ability to turn a neat phrase. v The Veep was making out a great case for the New-Fair Deal, , and he was quite convincing considering the record of corruption and wastq which has been laid at its door. Yes, the Veep, in the face of overwhelming odds, was painting a beautiful word picture of the glorious achievements of the Administration of which he is a part. At long last he came to Social Security. That, he maintained, was one of the great, if not the greatest accomplishment of the New-Fair Deal. Then he went on to say that no Republican candidate would dare to suggest to his electorate that this great boon (?) to the American people be abolished; that any candidate foolish enough to do so would be snowed •^*^*i*nnniv¥VvirwwvwinAnWASHINGTON THEATRE ** start at 7:15 and 9 P.

State it how you may, I know I didn’t get all from my schooling I should have. Through the years I've tried to shift the blame on other people or on circumstances. So far the shifting of blame has sounded pretty stupid every time I tried it, but maybe now I've reached the answer. The other day I heard a couple of construction boys talking about, a new school building they were working on. They mentioned marble thresholds at the doors, private showers and drying rooms, dust-proof chalk racks, lockers, and all kinds of fanciness. Now, maybe that’s the reason 1 didn’t learn much when I was in school. The building wasn’t fancy enough. There wasn’t a shower in thejplace, much less a private one with a private drying room. There were probably thresholds at the door and you tried not to fall over them, but I know they weren’t marble. We coughed and sneezed along with the chalk dust, blissfully unaware of its horrors. 1 never heard of a fatality, however. _ Yep, the old school house was no thing of beauty. * There was one strong point to (See WALRUS, page 3)

New Corn Crop May Bring Better *' Hog-Corn Ratio . Mty substantial improvement in the hog-corn ratio, from the hog feeders’ standpoint, probably will have to wait on the new com crop. « That is the 'belief of pr. J. L. Maxton, marketing specialist at VPI, who says with increased acreage and good com yields in 1952, the hogcom price ratio could be very favorable to hog feeders in the winter of • 1952^53. ... ■ -----r Meanwhile, here is how the economist sizes up the situation: Corn supplies have been reduced. Hog marketings have increased. The export demand for lard fell off at a time when supplies were large. None of these factors is likely to change before midsummer. At that v time new corn crop prospects will become a factor. Hog prices may strengthen as liquidation ceases. But • corn prices are just as likely to strengthen as the result of reduced ~ - supplies.

Herd Bulls ft £ ' 1 i .V :*> Every good farmer knows that the -■ quality of next year’s calf crop will ' depend lately on the hulls used this year, and consequently* that the. quality of bulls will determine the' amount of return on the calves. A glance at stock quotations is all that is needed to provide practical illui stration of calf prices, whjch may go " down, the poorer qualities of cattle i will be the first to be affected. t Quality always comes at a premium. The commercial herd bull is the •factor main -tactor m economically ii% creasing the value of the herd by re* placing old cows with better grades j of heifers. It’s the same old story of the house built on rock enduring f while that which is founded on sand !• crumbles. Generally speaking, the' i herd bull should be worth three cows. On today's market a good grade of -teti $300 dr more, which puts a fair value for a good bull at fOrviceaMeage at about ■ "; .-£•#. .% At ■' thi Winchester Calf Sales, where many Fauquier calves are sold at above average, prices range from about 41 cents for average stock to 55 cents for top quality. To sell in this market, calves not only must be sired by registeratered bulls but also subject to review by a selection com-, mittee before being admitted. If last year’s calves did not grade good or better at weaning time, the strong indication is that a better sire ' is. needed. There is involved not only the question of blitter returns on the crop, but also the matter of fattening better type calves more economically. - In addition, by using better herd sires the quality Of the herd as a whole will be improved.

The best grass silage will come from the crop that makes the best hay, G. R. Epperson, associate agronomist at VPI, says. Alfalfa, clovers, grass %nd legume mixtures, and excess pasture are among crops suitable for silage. Grass or legume silage is higher in. protein, calcium, and carotene than com or sorghum silage. The high protein content means you can reduce the protein in grain mixtures fed to stock getting grass silage, thus reducing feed costs. . Vv': One of thie requirements is a good, tight, strong silo. If your silo is not well reinforced, put extra bands around the lower part to strengthen walls. To estimate yields of silage for the different crops, multiply the expected, yield in hay by three. For instance, if an alfalfa field would produce 4 tons of hay per acre during the year* it would furnish about 12 tons of silage. There are two ways to preserves grass silage. One is to wilt material before it is put in the silo, to reduce moisture to 65 to 58 percent. The length of time t will take varies with the crop, jts' maturity, the dampness of the.ground, and the weather. The other is preservatives, added to grass silage to improve the quality. Molasses, com-and-cob meal, and phosphoric acid are most commonly used.' Be sure to top off the silage with at least two feet of heavy green material.' Tramp the top lay£r (tjp- V'1 Xj/ <i:, • 'w*'-^. •:■ -.-tV*^->*-'Hv***’ thoroughly, especially around the wall.

Dot Cloud, as Mrs, Perringtori-' Shine, really bossed her father and daughter, played by Irvin Corbin and Mary Jane Cornell., The for-" mer’s flirtation with Lulu, the maid, in real life Delores Poster, was broken up; however, the latter’s desire to elope was achieved when Tex James, in the form of Rodney Vest, appeared on the scene.

James Goode made such an expert burglar that we hope he will not decide to go in for such a shady occupatioh. Charles Brown, as tne flirtatious' male, was nearly wrecked when all three of the ladies to whom he was engaged confronted him en masse.

Mr. Harrison, commented that Mr. Kuykendall had Ween “far too generous” in his references to him, .but that “Virginia Democrats generally have attained positions of influence in the Congress”.* “The delegation of no other State has so advantageous a position from which to make its im press on legislation,'’ he said. "Virginia Democrats have been effective in their battles in Wash* -ingten/’Mr.Harriton.declared^ "They have shared in the efforts which have defeated or blocked the FEPC, the Brannan farm scheme, socialized medicine, Federal control of elections, education and public (welfare information policy, and a cunningly-devised Complex of other projects aime'd at the socialization of our national life. ^ ■ ( “Y<jp and I, in this convention, are Democrats—the same kind of Democrats we've always been. The principles of our Democratic Party are well-known and quite simple. As enunciated by our foundee, Thomas Jefferson, and as cherished in Virginia, they are: honesty in government, frugality in government, loyalty in government, efficiency in government and, not the least, a minimum of meddling *>y government in the $aily affairs of the people. “Is it contrary to the philosophy of Democracy to demand that pub. lie funds, wrung from the sust#?S nance of the taxpayer through unyielding rollers of taxation, should be spent with care and caution for necessary purposes only?’ ^ “We are conndent that we stand on solid Democratic ground when we insist that those on the public payroll ehall be honest in their, administration of public affairs,' snail be tree from reasonable suspicion of disloyalty -to our country, and shall be efficient and economical in their use of public money. “in international affairs, Virginia Democrats have followed therprinci'ple of Woodrow Wilson, when he called for “open covenants of peace.'openlv arrived at.” fi “This Is the record,'in part, of the Democratic Party of Virginia .in Richmond and in Washington,”” Mr. Harrison said. “We could not change it if iwe would; we would not change it if we could. It is a record of unswerving loyalty to the true principles of the Democratic Party—economy, eniciency and loyalty in government; equal opportunity for all, special privilege lor none. “Oh that record, the Demo- ' cratic Party of .Virginia has received the support of the overwhelming majority of the people of Virginia—a majority of normal Democrats, and a majority of normal Republicans, who, as do we, put welfare of country above partisanship.” y/-;-—— ‘ First Mate and Mrs. C.

Anyone riding our highways cannot help but enjoy the beauty of the Dogwood and Redbud which are now: dressed in their best spring finery. Eastern Redbud, sometimes called Judas-tree, is a rather small tree which branches extensively 10 to 15 feet above the ground. This tree never reaches commercial size and is a natural part of the forest understory of this region. Redbud grows quite rapidly and prefers rich fairly moist sandy loam soils. About this time of year its branches are covered with masses of light pink to purple flowers which make it a most desirable tree for ornamental purposes. The people of Oklahoma liked the spring coloring of this tree so much that they adopted it as the state tree. Redbud may !>e propogated from seed or young seedlings may be carefullytransplanted from their natural woodland environment. The partner in this spring display of color is the Flowering Dogwood. This is the state tree of Virginia although ip* is a native of the woods from Massachusetts to Florida and westward to Texas. Dogwood is a small tree characterized by/ spreading branches which form a low, fairly dense, rounded crown. The leaves are arranged opposite one another on the twigs and the tiny yellow clusters of flowers, which usually appear about aiayi, are surrounded by four large white bracts. These bracts acted as bud scales during the winter and many people mistakenlytake them to l>e the flowers of the tree. A pink flowering Dogwood also occurs, flowering Dogwood thrives in shaded spots on moist fertile soils and is a slow growing long lived tree. Large trees of this species are difficult to transplant and when trees are to be moved from woods to home small seedlings should be chosen. Care must be taken in transplanting. Dogwood is also propogated with difficulty from seed and cuttings. Dogwood and Redbud are definately two of the most beautiful trees native to our woodlands. ---* a':.?' Pre-Fab Freezer ___ Tried At Station Agricultural engineers at VPI’s Experiment Station may have found a way to reduce the cost of building a walk-in freezer on your farm. A pre-fabricated freezing unit has been under test in an experimental - “walk-in” room at the College for over a year, and the engineers beievo it could lie satisfactorily adapted for farm use. They reason that assembling the condensing \ unit, evaporator and accessories into one unit in the shop instead of doing the work on the site, will mean savings to the farmer. The ‘ pre-fabricated unit also can b® thoroughly tested in the shop where all the necessary tools are handy. ^ Once the unit is constructed in thig ‘ shop and placed on an insulated panel, ’ all that is necessary is for the work*•**-*• * it- -into the «freezer- . :v ? ,vr: » f ;' * * > "um: FRONT ROYAL LIVESTOCK MARKET (No report received) ■ ■ .> /.• ' V V. »r<r CULPEPER LIVESTOCK MARKET May <6, 1952 Coirs __..$19.40-122.80 ‘Vea! calves: Good-choice _96.10- 37.29 — -Medium_34.70- 35.85 Common _ 33.00- $4.39 Hogs, 180-220, top 20.45 Heavy __19.39 -Light.19;75-:——Shoats 16.75- 19.90 Sows __-.-.14.25- 15.60 per head Cows -_$190-$330 Stocker cattle-101- 146.. - Baby calvesT_._ 9- 36.25 Pigs _1.00- 11.25 Be Afire yea FUSSELL-YOUNG ICE CREAM COMPANY .

The recent rainy period took its toll on many farms in th*e loss of valuable topsoil' and fertility. With the soil completely saturated with watr as it was the first of this week, all of the rainfall runs off, carrying with it a lot of good Culpeper and Rappahannock dollars.. We have taken the opportunity to “srudy sevefaT farms that are carrying out good conservation plans. Without Exception the run-off water was leaving these farms in an almost clear condition. This was not found to be .ixueon-farms-studied^ihatwefehdr" practicing conservation farming. The small streams flowing from these farms were muddy with soil washed from sloping, plowed, crop fields. What does all this mean ? A muddy stream means that someone is losing his soil, his fertility and his farm. Wc should remember that when we plow, disk and operate tillage implements up and down slopes, that we are reducing the size of our farms. A farm has three dimensions. In addition to width and length, an acre of land has a third dimension—depth. The depth The sweater dress of crepe is worn with or without a belt.

However, he continued, they had1 round that she had an unusual knowledge of fabrics, and that her interest and ability to work with people was at a very high level. Then he introduced her to the manager of a local store where she started working in the dry goods department. w Result?
