******* VOLUME 3—NUMBER 46 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1952 £2.00 PRR VP!Aft Amissville Fire Co. Plans Festival ' The newly-organized Amissville Volunteer Fire Department is introducing itself ht the first Firemen’s Festival next week end, September 26 and 27, when 50-members strong, they are turning out to furnish fun for folks and funds for themselves to pity for their new fire-fighting equipment and to build a house for it. Born of necessity, about 30 citizens of Amissville community be%an the organization of a volunteer fire company early in June. Three homes had been destroyed in the neighborhood; and a carelessly tossed cigarette (supposedly by a motorist) had set a ravaging grass fire. The Amissville community knetAf that their neighbors (Rappahannock, Warrenton, and Culpeper) would all come to their aid when fire broke out, but the distances made the folks realize that they had better be helping themselves until help could arrive! Meetings were held; organization arranged; and finally plans began to shape up. In the three months of the summer, the company has organized, a ladies auxiliary has begun to “work, two pieces of equipment have been secured, and the first benefit festival is almost rec|iy to sound-off! For the first Firemen’s Festival, Amissville Volunteer Fire Department is promising a complete line of entertainment, carnival fun, with rides and plenty of food and noise. Present plans include a parade Saturday, September 27, at 6 o’clock, with visiting fire departments participating. More plans will be made public aa the big day approaches. Carder Donates Land A happy announcement has been by the new company that W. C. Corder, of Front Royal, has given land on which to erect the hopedfor fire house. The new company was pleased iwhen this news came, for where to put the fire fighting equipment- was going to be a problem. Officers of the Amissville fire company are: Thomas H. Tear, president; Charles Green, vice-president; Graham Hackley, secretary; H. Palmer, Jr., treasurer; Charles Compton, chief; Elmer Jenkins, assistant chief; Elmer (Snooks) Lillard, captain; and Mitchell Green, lieutenant. ___ Engagement Announced Invitations have been issured by Mrs. Catherine Brown of Sperryville to the marriage of her daughter, Barbara Ann, to Charles Edward *ayne, son of Mr. and Mrs. Luther 'ayne of Washington, on Saturday, Jctober 4, at 4 o’clock p.m. in the \rlington Methodist Church, Arlingm.

S. degree in civil engineering, Coldiron has been with the State Highway Department since his graduation in 1940,* except for two periods of military service. He worked in the Culpeper district from July 1940 to August 1941. From 1941 to 1946, he served as a captain of cavalry in the Army, returning to the highway department as soon as his separation from service. He then completed the road agency’s fouryear graduate training program and served as assistant resident engineer' in the Staunton and Fredericksburg districts and as associate maintenance engineer for the entire State before being recalled to the Army in 1951. Upon his return from service this year, he was made associate secondary roads engineer in Richmond, from winch post he came to the Warrenton residency. He will be assisted by L. E. Brett, Jr.f who has been assistant resident engineer in the Warrenton residency since April of this year Brett is a graduate of VPI, with a BS degree in civil engineering. He served from 1943 to 1945 as an aviation cadet in the United States Navy and joined the highway department upon graduation from VPI in 1949. He has also participated in the department's graduate training program which' provides experience in all phases of highway department work.

This year there are 36 consigners compared with nine consigners at the first sale held in 1940 when but 231 calves were auctioned. While drawing comparisons between the beginning and present'the sale grossed $11,765 in 1940 and $137,021 in 1951. Breeders who have consigned continuously a/e believed to be but four: Dr. Thomas E. Hughes, John S. Browning, J. Rodes Brown and James E. Yetes. ♦ * * Rappahannock Hereford breeders are consigning 228 head to the Northern'Virginia Feeder Calf Sale at Winchester while H. S. Barksdale consigns to the Page County sale held at Front Roal. * * * In 1940 there were but 52,000 beef type brood cows in Virginia as compared to 230,000 at the beginning of 1950 and I quote Park Brinkley, our Commissioner of Agriculture. No wonder we are having moore and more feeder calf sales being held in the state with more and more head being nominated. Looks to me like every single Rappahannock farmer must sooner or later produce feeder calves cheaper through the production of better pasturage, Mr. and Mrs. L Sheppard Purchase Home Hear Nethers —n Mr. and Mrs. Louie Sheppard of Centreville, near Washington, have purchased, through S. E. Hening, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Jen-* kins at Nethers, at the foot of Old Rag Mountain. The property consists of 7 room dwelling, 6 outbuildings and 35 acres of land. The Sheppards are planning quite an ambitious remodelling, including bath, central heatf picture windows and landscaping. They are planning to make this 4heir retirement home Mr. Sheppard, originally from Texas, served with the United States Navy and Mrs. Sheppard was for years with the Department of Internal Revenue. Birth Announcement Mr. and Mrs. Emory Russell announce the birth of a son, Emory Clokey Russell Jr., born at Warren Memorial Hospital, September 14. More Donors Needed For filoodmobile Visit Miss Ruth Stevens and Mrs. Paul Miller, co-chairmen for the visit of'the Red Cross Bloodmobile Unit Monday, September 22, at Reynolds Memorial Baptist church, Sperryville, are much perturbed because the quota has not been met by signatures of volunteers. The goal of this Red Cross program is to help provide blood for hospital use, without charge, to all people of the eountry when the need arises. Twelve pints of blood given by Rappahannock citizens through the mobile unit in March have been used by citizens of the county. Six pints were uspd in Warren County Memorial hosiptal, and six pines at University of Virginia hospital. Some hospitals ask for a replacement when one receives the blood, but this is not compulsory. The blood is needed so desperately that some hospital authorities feel, if possible, a replacement should be made. However, if a replacement is impossible, there is no reason for a patient’s family to be too concerned, for the bleod is given by friends in the county, and this is one of the main reasons for the blood bank. Methodist Church The members of the Flint HiM Methodist Church have started to renovate the building. Sunday School rooms are being added as wings and the columns are to be replaced. ENTERS HOSPITAL Mrs. H. B. Winfrey entered the hospital in Charlottesville Tuesday for treatment for a broken bleed vessel in a leg. H. B. Winfrey, principal of the county high school, accompanied Mrs. Winfrey to the hospital. The Rev. S, Felton Carter is acting as substitute teacher In 'Mrs. Winfrey’s classes at high school during her absence. : DrT' dnd Mrs. John P.

Subscription:-$2.00 a year Byrd and Harrison The Northern Virginia Daily began its editorial page Tuesday with ♦hi* • “The Northern Virginia Daily will support Senator Byrd and Congressman Burr P. Harrison for re-election in the Novemlier general election. In our opinion both of these gentlemen have given the Seventh District and the State of Virgina a type of representation in Congress that is far above the average and is rare ’n these days of loose political thinking We do not support them primarily because they are Democrats, but because they are honorable men and have proved faithful to the trust that tire “people reposed in^them. - “Senator Byrd has no Republican opposition •though he does have two other opponents, Clark Robb, a Social Democrat, and an independent candidate named Vise, who entered the race shortly before the deadline for filing. Neither of these candidates is well known in the state and the indications are that their votes will be very small though it is unwise to count anything as certain in politics. Senator Byrd's overwhelming Victory over Pickens Miller in the Democratic primary was a. testimonial to the high esteem in which the people of Virgina hold their senior Senator.” The Daily’s editorial continues with a statement of the stand they have taken on the presidential election. ‘ It seems to be the stand taken by every paper about this - territory except a few of us-weeklies who are waiting or else making no statement. Says the Daily: “This newspaper is supporting General Eisenhower* It believes that his election and the defeat of the Fair Deal party is a matter of vital concern to the whole nation. And there are thousands of true Democrats in Virginia who feel the Same way. The Republicans can muff their chance in this election as they did in 1948. And one of the best ways to do it is by prodding the Democratic organization into full-scale action in every precinct in PITTS FRONT ROYAL THURSDAY - FRIDAY SEPT.

(After altflmost of us know comparatively little about politics, and material for talk soon runs out. It demands either a gradual change of topic, or tiresome repetition.) One prize story came from a recent talk—that began political and ended up on a higher plain—and it ran something like this: "When God made the oyster, He guaranteed him absolute economic and social security. He built the oyster a house, a shell, to protect him from his enemies. When hungry, the oyster simply opens his shell and foods rushes in for him.

Once upon a time an impending law was up for consideration and about half the residents of the village were for it and about half against.

Tell us how you stand on this new law?” The speaker continued with scarcely a pause. “Friend, I'm glad y6u asked me that question. I understand half my friends are for that law and half my friends are against it. Now listen!

Two had dark green, pointed leaves; some had medium green, rounded leaves; some had tiny; pale green leaves, almost as round as a biscuit. Here is one of nature’s commonplactb that we ought to ponder. In identical soil in the garden are boxwood bushes—or any plant. With the help of water and sun, exquisite plants niature. Neither artist nor machine can equal such multiple perfection. To pursue this contemplation, note the cookbook. In,it are recipes for preparing edible dishes from every animal, fish, and vegetable known to man. The index begins with Acorn Squash and ends with Zwieback Crust. What makes me humble is the process by which Nature manages to bring these forms of life to their separate maturities. From water and land come these flowers and edibles. This speckled trout is exactly like mates,^ and this boxwood bush ■is like its~mates. If I had an educated palate and wished never to repeat a menu, I could have a thousand different meals in a year, by choosing front the cookbook. At the end, except that I would be a year older, I wouldn’t have changed a particle.

Rappahannock Health Department Conducts Nutrition and Dental Surrey in Schools (The following story and ths pictures are on lo^n from the state department of heaitn, reporting on the survey program eonduet ed in the county last spring.) To bring about a closer coordination between proper diet and dental health, a demonstration dental health and nutrition education program was begun in Rappahannock County last September. From the onset of. the program it to as felt that, the project should be carried on through state and community agencies. School and public health personnel such as the elementary school supervisor, dentists, nutritionists, public health 'nurses, the county health officer, and a Dairy Council representative participated in the project. A mobile dental trailer from the State Health Department visited the c«unty for two months during the faH. Out of the 342 pupils examined , for dental defects, 192 were treated by the public health dentist and 559 corrections made. Most of these corrections represented the filling of decayed teeth. Fluoride treatments were given to many of the children by the dental hygienist. The result of this corrective program indicated that there was a great need for improvement in the deirtal health of Rappahannock County children. Two of the larger schools in the c*unty, Rappahannock Elementary School, Snerrvville Elementary School, and one of the smaller schools, Forest Grove, were selected Spr this dental health and nutrition education pilot- study. The program was beuun Jjy conducting a dietary survey in these schools to find out the eating habits of the Children. Pupils ranging in age from nine to eleven years were interviewed for three consecutive days. They were asked to recall everything that they had eaten the previous day. Each child was interviewed individually by a public health nurse or a ■‘nutritionist. By usmg this method, it was' felt that more accurate information could be obtained concerning the food hakits of these children. Dietary Survey Results The three day dietary survey was tabulated using the seven Basic Food GroupiTas a standard for evaldatiuirof each child’s eating habits. The results indicated that the children were getting adequate amounts of breads« and cereals, meat and meat substances, fats and large quantities of sugars and confections. Only 20% of the children were chinking the recommended one quart of milk per day. Inadequate amounts of green leafy and yellow vegetables; citrus fruits, tomatoes and raw cabbage were consumed by-the children surveyed.— - ————r jLiic iduuudumj^ iur me susceptibility to tooth decay was made on the children in one of the fourth grades. The children were given containers in whch to collect samples of their saliva. These specimen were sent tc| the State Laboratory for diagnosis. In this test, the patient’s saliva is examined to determine the number of lactobacilkis acidophilus, decay producing germs, present. From the laboratory analysis the actual number of bacteria which cause decay can be determined, and from this count an estimate of the patent’s susceptibility to decay can be determined.* The most effective means of con* trolling dental caries at present is to renjove these germs from the mouth. These bacteria thrive on highly refined carbohydrates, particularly sugar. Therefore, the number of lactobacillus in saliva can be reduced by lowering carbohydrate and refined ' sugar consumption in the diet.* The State Director of Dental Health and a nutritionist have prepared lists of suggested diets which are low in carbohydrates. These lists are for distribution to the dentists and are designed to help them plan diets with their patients after the lactobacillus count has been determined. By eliminating all free sugars and carbohydrates in the diet, the count can be lowered, ,thus reducing the possiblity of new tooth decay, The length of time that a particular diet is followed varies in individual patents and is determined by the dentist. The Director of Dentil* Health from the State Department of Health explained the results of the saliva test to the elementary teachers and principal in each school. Low carbohydrate diets were distributed to the teachers, and they were encouraged to tell the students more about these tests that may help in their problems of lowering dental caries. ' The dietary survey and reports of the lactobacillus tests were reported to the principal, teachers, elementary ,supervisor and other participant^ in the project at a meeting in each of the schools and the possiblities for a nutrition education program in these schools Were discussed. All of the participants agreed that there was a great need for improving the dietary habits of the children. The teachers decided that they would like to have a refresher course in nutrition so that they might give the study of nutriton added emphasis in their health classes. They agreed to meet oikc a week for these lessons until the course was completed. Subjects such as "Relationship of Food Health,” “Seven Food Groups and Their Gontribution to Health” and “Nuriton Education in the felementary Grades” were discussed with the teachdrs by the nutritionist from the State Health Department. White Uat Experiments Shortly after the nutritionist started the classes for teachers, a pair of w'hite rats was placed in the fourth grade iij each school. One rat in the pair was put on a good diet; the otter rat was fed a poor diet. The rat on the good diet received milk, vege tables, bread, and butter. Ibe rat on the poor diet drank soda pop and coffee and ate sweets such as cake, candy, and cookies. The children enjoyed taking care of the rats and watching changes in their growth and fur coatings. Alter four weeks the rats on the good diets showed indications of normal growth and physical development. They were more ah'rt, their eyes were brighter, and the fur coating looked smoother and heakhier than the rats on the poor diets. At one school a teacher reported that two girls in her room did not drink milk. When they saw what was happening to the rat who did not drink milk, they started drinking milk in the school lunch room. Nutrition lessons with food demonstrations were given in most of the elementary grades in the thre? schools which were surveyed. Emphasis was placed on eating more fruits and vegetables, and on drinking milk. A decrease in the amount of sweats and carbohydrates foods consumed was encouraged. Sample letters describing the demonstration lessons in the classroom, which the children could copy or which the teacher could use as a guide to make her own letters, were distributed to each school. These letters were to inform the parents and the community about the dental health-nutrition education program in tne schools. As p part of this'education program, charts, posters, booklets and other nutrition materials were distributed for the primary and intermediate grades and 'their use was encouraged. Charts and posters were being used on bulletin boards in the classrooms and in tfie halls. In sotre rooms the booklets were placed on reading tables, or were thumbtacked to bulletin boards, so that the* children might read thenTat recess or in their leisure time. Teachers reported that they had noticed children reading the booklets and that the childrgn had asked questions about the Seven Food Group posters. In several classes Seven Food Group posters have been made by the students themselves. In some of the classes foods were drawn, colored and placed on bulletin boards. The students then discussed these foods and what they contribute toward good health. One of the lower grades made milk bottles with pipe stem legs and arms as a part of their (See HEALTH, page 4) WALRUS (Continued from page 2) the identical diet, would still be a Chinaman.

She has her class sing it to the tune of “Row, Row, Row Your Boat.*’ Each year in one school the younger boys and girls were given Christmas stockings. Previously, there had been a lot of candy in the stockings. Since the school had been made more “food conscious” through the dental health and nutriton education program, one teacher thought it world, be better to buy the children tooth brushes and tooth paste and to limit the candy to one piece. Thus, the tooth brush and tooth paste would help encourage the children to remember to take care of their teeth. Throughout the remainder of the school year, the schools have been visited—routinely by a nutritionist “from the State Health Department in order to give the teachers an opportunity to request more materials and ask advice when it is needed. Interest in the program has remained high and although progress in dental health and nutrition education is very slow and the results are not. evaluated easily, it is felt that this program in Rappahannock County will contribute much toward better dental health for these children. warren ana mauison rrograms Early this year similar programs were started in both Warren and Madison counties. In each county representatives from civic organiza-^ tions, church groups, and schools met with the health workers to plan a program that would interest the entire community in the project. The fourth grades in two schools of these - counties were used fpr the dietary survey. The survey showed that 96% of the students interviewed in Madison County and 73% of those interviewed in Warren County have inadequate diets! I'mther results of the dietary surveys revealed that the children were eating a sufficient amount of meat, meat substitutes, eggs, breads and cereals. The daily intake of sugar and confections was found to be very high in both counties with over 50% of the children consuming from three to four servings of sweets per day. Most of the children surveyed consumed milk every day but few were drinking the recommended one quart. Inadequate amounts of citrus fruits and green and yellow vegetables were consumed by the children interviewed. In Warren County 68% had less * than one serving of citrus fruits and 72% ate less than one saving of green and yellow vegetables flaily. In Madison County 77% had less than one serving of citrus fruits and 76% ate less than one serving of green and yellow vegetables daily. f These facts’were reported back to the interested organizations. Newspaper articles and radio programs publicized the campaign for better nutrition aqd dental health. Pamphlets describing the Warren County and Madisoft County projects were printed and distributed throughout the communities. Over a thousand pamphlets entitled “Good Food for Healthy Teeth” were distributed in Madison County. “It’s Your Health,” a film on nutrition and dental health, was shown at •every school in Madison County and many of the; schools in Warren Co. “ 1 he School That Learned To Eat,” a nutrition film, was also shown in Warren County. Following the dietary surveys, the study of nutrition was given added emphases in the participating schools. An experiment with rats similar to the one performed in the Rappahannock schools was carried on in each of the schools. More projects are being planned for Madson and Warren counties. Interest continues to grow in the cafttpagn for better nutrition and dental health as all the organizations in these communities cooperate to make the program a success. As the dental health and nutrition education^ programs continue in these counties and spread to other communities, they should ‘certainly prove that dental health and general health can be improved by dietary measures. It is possible that diet plays its greatest role in building good teeth throughout life to keep the bone during the^irst twelve years of life; but a good diet is also needed,structure surrounding the teeth in good condition. Food* Needed for Good Teeth The calcium and phosphorus needed for proper growth and develop ment of the teeth is present in such foods as milk, cheese, fish, poultry, eggs and meat. For these minerals to be used tp the best advantage, the child’s teeth need Vitamin D, obtained mainly from sunlight, fish, liver oils and egg yolks. Vitamins A and C also are -essential to'the growing teeth. Vitamin A is present in such foods as spinach, turnip greens, carrots, squash, bananas, apricots, butter and eggs. Vitamin C is found in oranges, grapefruit, lemons, cantaloupes, fresh strawberries, raw cabbage, tomatoes, green peppers and salad greens. Aside from the vitamins and other food factors which fresh fruits and vegetables contain, they appear to perform an important mechanical function as a tooth cleanser. When an apple or a similar fruit is eaten for dessert, sticky foods are cleared away to a great extent, and the mouth and teeth feel clean. The maximum reduction in tooth decay which can be achieved in children by applied dietary control is unknown. On the basis of present knowledge, the potential reduction to be ‘ achieved by dietary" control appears to he considerably in excess of that to be expected from many other suggested preventive measures.

Atlas Wheats By W. H. Lyne Although not recommended for this section some Rappahannock farmers have indicated interest in the new wheats: Atlas 50 and Atlas 66 which made excellent yields in the more southern Piedmont area. Commercial production of these wheats has brought about two disease problems which have not been serious in Virginia until 1952. Many farmers and elevator operators have reported that the Atlas varieties have , yielded poorly and that the bushel test weight is low. The two diseases contributing to these conditions are mosaic and glume bloch. Here is what our Extension Plant Pathol igist say about these- diseases and I quote: “Mosasic is a, virus disease which lives over the soil and persists in the absence of wheat for as long as 8 years. Although mosaic was first _— _ * t t!_• • -%\ ILU ill V il^llim 11119 JC<tI it Has probably been present for a number of years. The varieties Vahart, Thorne, VPf 131, and Forward which the Atlas wheats replace are resistant to mosaic and, consequently, were only slightly affected by it. The planting of sus-1 ccptible wheats is mosaic infested soil has brought about a wide spread outbreak of the disease. It is not known how the mosaic virus is spread on farm to farm, but there is evidence that it is not seed borne. Use of resistant varieties is the only means of control. v Glume bloch, on the other hand, has been a common disease of our wheats for many ye;ys. It is most serious in years of abundant spring rainfall. This disease is caused by a fungus and may be seed-borne. The fungus may be eliminated from seed by treatment with mercurial compounds XCeresan M, Panogen, Etc.) However, for good control, seed treat ment must be coupled with a two year rotation and destruction of wheat crop residues. Apparently, the varieties replaced by Atlas wheats are more tolerant of glume bloch and yield well although the disease develops considerably on them.” Eddie Gore is the only Rappahannock Farmer who has qsed either of the Atlas wheats. Actually his 1952 WHOSPITAL Mrs. George Hawkins, who went to Charlottesville with a group for an eye examination, entered University Hospital, where she is receiving treatment for an infected eye. Later reports are that she itr improving and will possibly he home in a few days. _ REVIVAL AT MT. LEBANON Revival services will begin at Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church, Scrabble, on September 22. Rev. Gene P. Stevens of Battery Park will be the visiting minister. The public is cordially invited to attetid these services Monday through Friday at 8 p.m. “The lake” Welcomes Seniors of ‘52 Gibson Whorton, manager of the Lake Barn Dance, entertained at the dance given on Friday night, the 1952 graduating class of Rappahannock County High School. Among the honored guests were William Armentrout, Charles Brown, Irvin Corbin, Rodney Vest, Misses Ann Lee, Josephine Butler, Delores Foster, and Beatrice Jenkins. At the conclusion of the dance a prize was offered to the best dancing couple, to be decided by the three named judges, Mr. Dellinger of Alexandria, Mrs. Moore of Warrenton and Mrs. Frazier of Washington. There was a great amount of enthusiasm shown when the followcrop based on casual observation by myself was one of the nicest crops of wheat I have ever seen and produced around 36 busdiels per acre. Eddie saw this wheat while undergoing experimental production tests at Orange -and was so impressed he could not" resist .trying it although climate is due to be too cold. My conclusions are that Rappahannock farmers interested in Atlas wheats should go slow' first of all because Agronomist say it is not adapted climatically and secondally because of the two diseases they are subject to. Farmers should stick to Vahart, Thorne, VPI 131 for at least their major portion of their planting the first two varieties being preferred over VPI 131. THE EDUCATION OF A PHARMACIST The Druggist Is Required To Watch For NEW DEVELOPMENTS Science, including pharmacy, is not static. One new development, confirmed, may revolutionize many scientific concepts and scientific practices. In order to serve you best, the pharmacist must keep up with new developments. He does this by doing much collateral reading in his own subject—pharmacy—and in subjects which he mast intelligently understand, such as medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, biology, botany, chemistry. « Your Druggist Is Trained To Serve Your Health Needs pvrmfit 'p/iewufittcm \ Swrce i LEWIS PHARMACY DIAL 8322 CULPEPER, VA.

I, along with Miss Fuss and Ivory „ Atkins, attended the 4-H Electric Congress in Richmond. The trip is awarded to the boy and girl winning the county prize in the Farm -and 1 Home Rural Electrification project, by the power suppliers for their area. We arrived in time fdr lunch on Friday, September 4. After the meal, we were addressed by Gover• nor John S. Battle, of Virginia and entertained by talented 4-Her'is. We went on a tour of the state capital building and then had . a chance to visit the stores downtown. • At supper, gold watches were awarded to the district winners. After . supper, everyone enjoyed a “high voltage party.” We were assigned to such teams as “Overloaded circuits, Frayed cords, Tampered Fuses and Bare wires.” There were contests in making hats, popping balloons and finding such articles as a red sock, a high school ring or a shoe string. The next event was a meter readers' test in which the contestant was led blind folded through cracked ice, over a “washed out bridge” and barked at by an imitation dog. This was supposed to show what the meter man goes through with. It was loads of fun to watch, anyway. On Saturday morning, we had a three minute report by each district winner on what he had done and planned to, do in this project. These were very interesting. After that, we had a group discussion on improving the rural electrif cation project and making it more effective. The Phillips 66 method was used and I served as chairman for my group. The Congress as a whole agreed that the biggest need was more interest from parents, teachers and others in the community. At luncheon, Phyllis Isaacs, of Campbell County, was declared* state winner. Her awards were a gold watch, a certificate of achievement and a trip to National 4-H Club Congress in Chicago. I led the 4-H Pledge at lunch and it sure sounds different when you’re up there leading everyone else! Many counties had exhibits of the work they had done. These were all very interesting and Bedford County won the award for having the best. They also won the award for having the besTrural electrification program. This trip is a prize worth working for and I hope that next year’s winner will enjoy it as dutch as I did. "Baiu, Cftieki. Any breed — All Chicks Guaranteed.

Increase In Sweet Potato Yields Not Satisfactory A slower-than-satisfactory progress in raising yields of sweet potatoes in Virginia 'is cited by A. Vernon Watts, associate Extension Service horticulturist at the Virginia Truck Experiment Station. He pointed out that Virginia’ growers have been able to “get by—so to speak” with low yields because of a rising price level and reduced proproduction in 1951 and 1952. However, “when supplies catch up with demand, and we believe they will in 1953, only efficient growers will continue to make money on sweet potatoes,” Watts said. The yields in Vrginia the past few years have been: 1947, 125 bushels; 1948, 135 bushels; 1949, 120 bushels; 1950, 130 bushels. For 1952, the estimated yield per acre is 120 bushels. Watts reports that/by following a program of hill selection, Dr. F. T. McLean, plant breeder at the Station, has obtained yields of 645 bushels per acre of U.S. No.l sweet potatoes. Although Virginia growers are not expected to do as good a job they “can, should, and must increase yields to more than 200 bushels per acre if they are to continue sweet potato Baptist Sunday School Building Fund Progresses Friends and members of the Washington Baptist Church are responding nicely to the building of the new Sunday school rooms.' To, date, the amount received is $7,479.40. By estimation, it will take around $4,000 to complete this much needed buildng. We would like to have it said that every member had a part. So'if you haven’t made your contribution, please do so at once, that God’s Kingdom may continue to advance in our community and throughout the earth. —Signed: E.M. Jones, R. V. Snead and W. C.

Dozen Fire Companies May Parade in Amissville A dozen .volunteer fire companies, from Washington, Culpeper, Front Royal and other nearby towns, have been invited to parade at the Amissville Fire Festival next Friday, September 26.^ The parade is expected to open with a flourish the Hvo-day carnival “ sponsored by the Amissville Fire Company, ft is planned to start about 6 p.m, Przes of $15 for first, $10 for second and $5 for third will he awarded to the best-looking displays of fire equipment. Amissville Fire Company president, Thomas Tear, has announced he hopes to get an expert from the District of Columbia Fire Department to judge the contest. production and make money,” the horticulturist says. Growers can’t expect a low yielding hill of misshapen potatoes to produce a hill of high yielding, smooth potatoes next year. But sweet potatoes will improve rapidly if a hill selection program is carefully followed each year, Watts says. Oliver Wendell Holmes, the famous writer, was a doctor and a teacher of anatomy.

"II. > — " - I ANOTHER FIYING SAUCER Many people who saw a large “fire ball” in the sky Friday evening, about 7 o'clock, were relieved Saturday morning to read in the papers that it was a shooting etar. All along the eastern seaboard, from Maryland through North Carolina, people reported seeing the shooting white ball of fire, described by some as looking like an enormous roman-candle. In each locality viewers had the impression that the shooting star landed in the field just beyond them. In several towns and cities people got in cars and drove a mile or two, feeling certain they could find it. At Amissville, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Johnson saw the ball of fire. Mr. Johnson, like others in different sections of the country, thought it landed Jn a field beyond some trees. He, too, werft to look for fragments. Astronomers in Richmond state that the ‘‘ball of fire” was one of the largest of a recent shower of shooting stars, and that this one burned itself out before it reached the air that encircles the earth.

September Is Time To Think About Lawns Want a better lawn next year? Now is the time to do something about it, say horticulturists at VPI. The long summer drouth just passed makes it even more important to give the old lawn some attention, they claim. They say to stir on the soil on barfe spots, or on areas where icrab grass has taken over, and sow grass seed. Fertilize old lawns with^i pound of sulphate of ammonia and 1£ lbs. of 5-10-5 fertilizer on 100 square feet. To get an even distribution of the fertlizer, use a fertilizer spreader if one is avalable. Early September also is the best time of year to sew grass seed for a new lawn. A lawn started now will have less weeds than a lawn started next spring. Also it will have a VJIUIIV.V vv ftV-l JIU1 IVU UV1U1 v tuiu weather, and will be all sea to continue growth in the spring. If seed is sown by 1iand, it is a good idea to stake off a square area and figue the amount- of seed needed. Then divide the seed into two ^qual packages. Sow one-half in one direction, and the other half in another a good coverage. For average conditions in Virginia, except where it is difficult to grow bluegrass, a mixture of 80 percent Kentucky bluegrass and 20 per cent (by weight) red top s recommended. Sow the seed at the rate of 130 lbs.

(7-10 to 11-10) Certified Seed Directory Available Growers of certified seed for planting in Virgina are listed in the 1952 Virginia Seed Certified Directory, now available from the Virginia Crop Improvement Association at VPI, Qlacksburg. The directory lists the growers of certified seed of small grains, soybeans, fescue, red clover, tobacco, peanuts, hybird corn, sweet and Irish potatoes and cotton—along with recommendations on rates of seeding and fertilization, and the descriptions of many of the varieties. The leaflet also has suggestions on rodent and insect control. Crop improvement officials explain that field inspections had been completed on all small grian crops at per acre, 3 pounds to 1,000 square feet, or 5 ounces to 100 square feet. Cover the seed with a light covering of wheat straw. Another suggestion for fall—don’t burn leaves from the trees. Save them and put them on the compost pile. The leaves decay faster if a light covering of manure or fertilizer high in nitrogen is added to each lqyer of leaves. the time the directory went to press; therefore only the growers whose fields passed all inspections by the State Certified Seed Commission are included_ _' _ The lists of growers for all other crops include those who have made application for inspections and certificaton. Most are growers with several years’ experience in producqg certified seed. In addition to field inspections, all certfied seed must also pass bin inspections, including germination and purity tests, and must be labeled with the offical blue certification tag of the Crop Improvement Association. rLjSELL-YOUKG ICE CREAM COMPANY ' Culpeper, Virginia 'Yx'W\l\» 1951 PACKARD 4-door Sedan 1950 PLYMOUTH 4-door Sedan 1949 BUICK 2-door Sedan 1949 PLYMOUTH 4-door Sedan 1941 CHRYSLER 4-door Sedan RUSSELL BROS., INC.
