VOLUME 3.-T-NUMBER 35. ■■■"■■■wi i WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA. THURSDAY, JULY 3, 1952 $2.00 PER YEAR Woodville Baptists Prepare To Celebrate Centennial, 1852-1952 Woodville Baptist Church is preparing to celebrate the church’s 100th birthday anniversary on the third Sunday, July 20, 1952. A history of Woodville Baptist church shows that a meeting was teld July 29, 1852 iwhereat it was '*A»olved “expedient, for the glory t J God, and for the promotion of His cause, to establish a Baptist Church at Woodville.” A covenant was drawn up and signed by: Joseph Botts, John N. Fox, Thos. W. Dean, C. H. Thornton, E. A. Turner, Mary Rosson, Jane Botts, C. M. Botts, Elizabeth Brown, and “Bettie’ G. Fox. The church was formally established August 2, 1852, when Elder Cumbei-land George preached the first sermon. Elder Barnett Grimsley was chosen as the first pastor and served from 1852-1866. Human nature may not change, but customs have, as can be seen from the church records! The conduct of the church members “was closely watched, and if one’s behaviour was unbecoming to a Christian, he was wafted on by a committee appointed by the church. ” One gentleman was excluded in 1856, four years after he had signed the covenant and been elected deacon. There is some comment in this day and time that -the “waiting on” of a church committee would not be a very popular custom. “In October 1857,” states the church history, “Bister C. B. Thornton asked lor a letter of dismission giving her reason for same that ahe was satisfied she should commune with all Ghritian denominations.” The following pastors are listed on the church records for the 100 I years: Elder Barnett Grimsley, 18521866.

It is simply an expression of confidence in the natural talents of the honored student and only if he puts- those talents to work in one activity w'here they can be most useful he is likely to be notable success. Newbill Miller was chosen to become an All-Star during the State 4-H Short Course the past week. We were quite proud to have Newbill accepted by the All Stars, an organization composed ol outstanding 4-H boys and girls all over Virginia.

Battle, Governor of Virginia; Dr. Walter S. Newsman, President of VPI, Dallas High, National Vice-President of FFA and others. J.T. Dwyer, Kelly Updike, Nelson Williams represented the Rappahannock FFA and participated in the livestock judging. These boys made an excellent showing by placing third high team, in the State. Included in the contest were judging classes of beef animals, hogs, sheep, fat beef, animals for grading and identification of dressed carcass cuts of meat. North River Chapter and Rural Retreat won first and second place. The high team will represent the State FFA association at * the National Convention held in Kansas City this fall. R. C.

Lewis, extension agronomist of VPI, advises: “The last General Assembly (1952) changed the fertilizer law to legalize the sale of rock phosphate in Virginia. This material contains from 30 to 33% phosphate acid of which 3 to 5% is available according to chemical solubility tests used by the state control Chemist.” There have been many questions asked locally and over the state as a whole regarding this material. In an effort to answer these questions a committee of the agronomy department has prepared circular 549 . . Ground Rock Phosphate which is available at this office. HOW CAN ROCK PHOSPHATE BE USED BEST. .<.????? On the basis of experiments conducted in Virginia and elsewhere, the value of rock phosphate as a fertilizer may be summarized as follows: Superphosphate is superior to rock phosphate in practically all cases. Rock phosphate is not suitable where a lot of phosphorus is needed immediately." You can expect satisfactory results from rock phosphate only if you use it in large amounts (1,000 to 2,000 pounds per acre), and if you use it to build up permanently the phosphorus content of the soil for longtime usage. Rock phosphate .gives' .better, results when you mix it thoroughly, with the siol rather than when you apply it in bands. Rock phosphate gives better results in acid soils than on well-limed soils Rock phosphate gives better results in a rotated cropping system which includes legumes. Certain legumes like alfalfa and clovers are able to use rock phosphate more effectively than do other crops. Where you. use rock phoshate on soils low in phosphate, sitpplpmpnt it • with superphosphate until the soil has reached adequate phosphorus. Replies are still coming in from farmers reporting whether or not they have heifers to be vaccinated against Brucellosis (Bang’s disease.) Since last Monday eighty-nine more farmers have been heard from making a total of 168 who have sent in replies. Of this number, one hundred fourteen report no heifer calves being kept while the remaining 54 have requested that 275 heifers to be vaccinated with several indicating they expect to have more heifers of vaccinting age (4-8 months) by November when the second vaccination program is to be scheduled. Those of you who* haven’t reported, please do so at once because schedules must l>e made up next week. COMING EVENTS: 1.

Hearing Set For July 21 To Stop Bus Service Bus service through Rappahannock county from Fredericksburg to Winchester stopped for the • daily runs June -1, and since that time the Trailways bus runs the route only on Saturdays. According to information from the State Corporation Commission a hearing by Virginia Stage Lines, Inc., to discontinue such bus service east and west through Rappahannock will be heard July 21. The communication reads thus: “The petition of Virginia Stage Lines, Inc., seeking authority to abandon the operation of passenger motor vehicle service under Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity N. P-1121 between Wilderness, Virginia and SperryVille, Va.; and between Massies Corner, Virginia and Front Royal, Virginia. “It is ordered that this matter be set for -hearing in the court room of the State Corporation Commission, Richmond, Virginia, on July 21, 1952 at 10 o’clock, a.m.” A number of Rappahannock people have protested the inconvenience of no bus service bebetween the county to and from Culpeper and Front Royal. There is excellent twiee-a-day bus service between Luray and Warrenton, with the ever-accom- „ modating Aubrey Purdum as the * driver. r or a wnne tne dus service east and west t^rou^h the county went both ways moaning and afternoon. Within tha first months of the year one bus went to Front ' Royal in the morning end to Culpeper in the afternoon. Since the first of June this schedule has been followed only on Saturday. No notification was given the county s people except to notify the stations where tickets were sol,d. Many people waited on the roadsides not knowing the bus had been discontinued. -- There is some sentiment in the county regarding the inconvenience. One expression is i “Perhaps they don’t make as much money as in other days and on other highways, but the bus companies should remember the days when the buses were crowded and also the fact that there are bound to be some parts of a business that don’t pay as well as others.” •Requests have gone out that citizens of Rappahannock who feel the inconvenience of the halted bus service will be at the hearing in Richmond on July 21 to prevent the stopping of the bus route, or get someone as a representative to request that some service be kept through Rappahannock county. Marriage Announcement Mrs. Annie M. Welch announces the marriage of her daughter* Betty Jane Welch, to Harry Martin, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Martin, of Martinsburg, West Virginia.

Rappahannock News Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia 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 lt*s A Garden Spot, Too (Tis a terrible thing to be reminded constantly of one’s shortcomings. ) _ One of the members of the Ladies’ Town Council of “The First Washington of Them All” has pointed out (vehemently) that a certain editorial entitled “Garden Spots” of three weeks back lauded the attributes of the numerous communities of Rappahannock county and omitted the nowfamous county seat. The Lady-Councilman (who has _been referred to as the “peaches and cream widow” by a national magazine) has threatened that feathers will fly if reparations are not forthcoming, and her tone insinuated P-D-Q as punctuation. The Lady received the editor’s apology and the following explanation: on the particular week that the editorial appeared, a citizen of Washington had published a letter that seemd to place the situation in the line of “the less saidt the better." There is no inference that citizens are not as co-operative as elsewhere. Attributes of the county 6eat will be easy to list. It*s a pretty, little village, situated in a section ' of country that is breath-taking to visitors, and taken for granted by the citizens. The village voices with pride the historical background of “The First Washington" and enjoys the position of bearing the name of “The Father of His Country.” The manner in which families continue to live in the village even when the earning of a livelihood means long commuting miles is an obvious exhibition of the pleasure of residence. Homes that remain in one family for generation after generation show that the village must have pleasing qualities to hold residents within the corporate limits. Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Wood were dinner guests on Friday evfnmgof Mr. arid Mrs. John Davis at “Hawthorne.” On Saturday afternoon Mrs. Wood attended a shower party given by Mrs. W. B. Early in Orange.

Some other people seem to believe that governments are instituted in order to support folks by taking out a mortgage on them, turning the people into a bunch of trained seals who are occasionally rewarded with a fish they’ve bought with their own money. The Eagle still sears.

Anyway, they are supposed to last from about July 3 to about August IT. When I was a youngster there used be all kinds of tales alrout DogDays: if you go in swimming too much, you’ll have sores; if you don't wear your shoes, you’ll have grounditch. Also, if it rains the first day of Dog-Days, it will rain for all 4j) of them; of if it is dry the first day, then there will be 40 dry days. I’ve forgotten dozens of the tales about this season. Somewhere along the line I’ve also heen vtold that the Dog-Days were named by the ancients on the theory that midsummer heat is partly caused by Sirius, the Greater Dog-Star (or maybe it was Procyon, the Lesser Dog-Star, I can’t remember -which) because these stars rise pTactically with the sun around this time of year and are supposed to add to its general warmth. Maybe 50; I’ll not argue the question—hut, the encyclopedia says Sirius is 8.S light years away from the earth and Procyon i* soil farther, and it’s pretty hard to see bow that could ra:sc the temperature. (Something does raise thet temperature at time, though, as we’ve discovered of late.) 1 FOR YEARS THERE HAVE BEEN SHOCK PROOF WATCHES Now these shock-proof watches are made in DAINTY LADIES' SIZjjS and MEN'S DRESS WATCHES Incabloc, shock-protected, and anti-magnetic are now available A year’s written guarantee goes with \each watch, at no cost to purchaser.

Peach Crop Starts Moving To Market The first of Virginia’s early peaches started .moving to market last week, and all indications were for a large crop of good quality. Fred Dreiling, associate horticulturisl at JVFIj Says most of the early peaches are coming from orchards in the Northern Neck and south central areas. The Early-Red-Fre variety, which gained much popularity on the market, is the heaviest among the early shipments. The next variety moving into Virginia markets will be Red Haven, coming largely from the eastern area. A( crop of over 2,000,000 bushels is expected in Virginia this year. This will be above the average of the past few years. Last year’s crop was about 1,750,000 bushels. Dreiling says the peach crop is clean this year, and that insects have been kept under control. Early varieties from North and South Carolina have been coming into the market for the last several weeks. Nationwide, a crop of 69,000,000 bushels is anticipated for this year— a 9 per centjncrease above the 195! - crop. THe north central states will account for most of the increase. Pvt.

V NISH NORTH& SON (AUBREY NORTH) HUNTLY, VIRGINIA Phones: 22-F3 or 24-F-3 Harry Byrd,a Farmer 46Years, is a Proven Friend of Agriculture Because of the many reckless and Inaccurate statements being made by Senator Byrd’s opponents concerning his farm record, it is necessary to set forth the facts clearly and truthfully The completely false statement has been made and continually repeated that Senator Byrd voted against the bill which established the Agricultural Adjustment Act. The fact is that Senator Byrd strongly supported the AAA This bill, House Bill 8505, passed the Senate February 14, 1038 and Senator Byrd’s support of this bill is shown in the Congressional Record, Volume 83, Part II, pages 1881 and 1882. Likewise completely false Is the assertion that Senator Byrd hfis opposed the Rural Electrification Program. The facts are that Senator Byrd has been a strong and determined supporter of the REA. He supported the REA Act of May 20, 1936; the Reorganization Plan 11, July 1, 1939; the REA Loan Liberalizing Act, September 21, 1944; and the REA Rural Telephone Service Act, October 28, 1949. In addition, he has approved thirty appropriation bills in which funds were made available to the REA. Senator Byrd, a farmer himself, has fought the battles ol ■ the farmer from the time he entered public life 37 years ago. But more Important than this is Senator Byrd’s record for Americans as a whole. Bernard M. Baruch said: “1 think there is no man in Congress who exceeds Harry Byrd in Integrity, patriotism and ability.” Senator Harry Flood Byrd Harry Byrd has long been recognized as an outstanding leader In the fight for economy, efficiency and integrity in government. Harry Byrd is fighting the battle of the farmer and of all Americans — and for this he deserves your support. „ _ SENATOR BYRD — • 1. Voted for the basic AAA Art of 1938. 2. Strong supporter of the Soil Conservation Program. ' 3. Strong supporter of Rural Electrification Program. Author of Byrd Road Law, which developed v farm-te-murket roads. SENATOR BYRD — 5. As Governor, revised' tax structure to save Virginia farmers millions of dollars. 6. Tax on land second lowest of any State in the union. 7. Father of Virginia's famed pay-as-you-go plan. 8.

Fearing a repeat performance of the long Memorial Day weekend which cost Virginia 19 traffic deaths, Col. C. W. Woodson, Jr., Superintendent of State Police and Executive Chairman of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee, today called upon motorists and pedestrams to make every allowance for very abnormal and dangerous traffic conditions during the coming Fourth of July Holiday. “People must realize that traffic volumes will l>e even higher than during the Memorial Day weekend since vacationists are now pourhig into Virginia,” he said, “ and everyone on the road will l>e trying to cover as much ground in as little time as possible.” Col. Woodson stressed the fact that this tendency leads not only to speeding under the worst possible conditions but the equally dangerous failings of driving while drinking, exhausted or sleepy. He added that the holiday_mood and—sight seeing— also are not conducive to the attentive driving called for by the situation. .

With a long weekend and traffic about seven percent heavier than last year’s, Colonel Woodson predicted that only’careful driving and driving only when necessary can prevent a worse record than that of the Memorial Day weekend. In closing he asked motorists to observe the following pieces of advice. 1. Start to your destination and hack early so you can make it without driving fast. 2. Don't drive after drinking or when tirejl. Stop immediately if you J>ecome dfowsey. 3. Have any defects in your car repaired l»efore starting. 4. Don’t stop or slow suddenly to look for directions or admire interesting sights. Give the proper siprrat and pull off theroadT 5. Drive defensively, watching for the driver who isn’t as careful as you. 6. Remember an accident resulting only in damage to your car can ruin your holiday.
