That was the comment this week from Rappahannock, PMA county chairman, as he reviewed 1953 farm conservation plans which farmers have filed with his committee during recent weeks. “There’s a strong trend on the part of local farmers to select ACP practice that call for seeding of grasses and legumes both for pasture and for cover crops,” he noted, "More pasture is strictly in line with our soil conservation objective, as well as with the Governor’s Pasture Program. With the prices of,meat and livestock at high levels and the demand expected to remain strong, it’s a smart farmer who converts grass into marketable products.” The Secretary listed the “grass and legume” practices contained in Rappahannock County’s 1953 ACP handbook, as follows: —-Pasture Development Establishing a Permant Pasture by Seeding, Adapted Grasses and . Legume. CREDIT RATES PER LB. 1. Orchard grass ___$0.23 2. Certified Kentucky 31 or Alta fescue _ $0.30 3. Kentucky bluegrass _ $0.54 4. Redtop (herdgrass) . $0.32 5. Certified Ladino clover _ $0.48 6. White (Dutch) clover_$0.48 7. Annual lespedeza _$0.13 8. Alsike clover - $0.42 9. Alfalfa _+_$0.50 10. Red clover - $0.38 Specification.—A payment pasture will be considered as established, and will qualify for payment tinder this practice when seedbed on a property prepared seedbed in any of the following combinations: 1. One or more of the grasses and one or more *of the legumes listed above. 2. Ladino clover sown alone. ( A pasture composed solely of Ladino clover should be used only for hogs or poultry.) 1 3. One or more grasses listed above sown in an established stand of one or more of the legumes listed above. 4. One or more of the legtlfnes listed above sown ‘n an established stand of one or more of the grasses listed above. 5. Payment will be made for seeding alfalfa or red clover only when seeded in connection with and in addition to a full seeding of both iadino clover and orchard grass. The Chairman observed that the extent of these practices to be performed for ACP credit, although greater than in other years, is expected to be small in comparison with pasture and clover crop practices that farmers will carry out on their own. • CHURCH NOTICES Regular. servicesr will be held at Emmanuel Episcopal Church, October 19, at 11 a.m. Samuel S.

Into this blank space heap all your wishes upon the present executive. If you approve of the present administration, cite what you can persuade yourself are its virtures. If you think that Give-‘F.m Hell-Harry is a disgrace to the nation, arrange your language as colorfully as you can, without being profane, and sing forth. Into this blank space silently think. It is to be hoped that your mind is made up; that you are ready to vote two weeks from Tuesday. The picture is far from pretty in our nation. If you want to feel gloomy, there is sufficient howl to place you in the depths of dispair. With very little argument, you can convince yourself that the country is bound quickly and surely fck destruction. On the other hand, you can argue yourself into the frame* of mind that remembers our nation has pulled through some rough spots before; that when the time needed it, a man has come forward as a leader; and that there are some mighty good heads in Washington in the legislative branch to keep the country going. A Man’s Hobby Keeps Him Young The meaning of the term Hobby has been broadened to such an extent by loose usage that it has lost the stigma which originally it was intended to imply.

Driving around aimlessly in a car or taking trips, are designated as hobbies. But, in reality, activities of this nature come under the heading of diversions, pastimes or sports. Occasionally we hear it said that a man is riding his hobby and it is meant that he is juvenile, at least, in one respect. As a boy he got astride a stick and scampered away on what he, and his elders called his hobby horse. Hence, when a grown man rides a hobby it‘s a sign that he has not grown up. He still likes to play and pretend. - A hobby, in its true sense, must be close at hand, in one’s own home preferably. A man’s workshop in his basement holds him enthralled, and he rides the hobby of making things with the risk of mashing a thumb. The fellow who goes to the kitchen, puts on a chef’s hat and a big apron, and tells everybody to clear out, has the hobby of cooking at the price of indigestion. Building a ship in a bottle is a hobby. Playing with a stamp collection qualifies. A hobby must be within easy reach and always ready. A hobby implies a personal quirk. A man stands off from other men in pursuit of his hobby. It’s his stick and he is going to ride it alone. With envy, probably also with jealousy, others will look down their noses, and remark sarcastically, “Oh, that’s his hobby. He’s all right otherwise.” But all those others don’t know what they are missing. It’s great to be just a little crazy.—Alfred W. Brandt.

The editor is not on the fence.. Like every other voter, a right may be exercised to keep your ballot secret However, there is no reason for it, since this is a free country and no Gestapo awaits me if rny views do not agrde with the powers-that-be. The editor of Rappahannock News is a Democrat. I have read both the Republican party platform (the whole thing) and the Democratic party platform. I do not approve of either in entirety, but more of the Democratic party principles meet with my approval than those of the Republican. I approve of the Democratic candidate more because of his experience as governor of a state than I do of the Republican with experience solely in the military. I don’t like some of the associates of either candidate; there is no choice in this line. Were there any where on the ballot to mark an X in a block to disapprove of the Truman administration, that I would do with a right good will. I’ve seen the ballot: it has two blocks, one says the Republican party electors, and the other says the Democratic party electors. There’s no middle ground; it has to be either one or the other. I shall mark the Presidential ballot with no particular pleasure; but that ballot for Byrd and Burr Harrison will give me enough satisfaction to make up for the others.

A fellow the other day turned to me a countenance of my-feelings-are-hurt just because my views on a political candidate didn’t agree with his. Now, his candidate is a fine man; nothing can he said against his character, but if I happen to prefer his opponent, that’s my business. There would lie no fun at all if everyone agreed on the same candidate. ; o o o This political campaigning is peculiar, anyway. Take, for instance, the case of two ladies. If they mee^, on the street and find they are wearing identical hats, an undeclared war is on hand. Either they-are mad at ■—..- - - - - „ each other, or they have silently boycotted the millinery shop now and forever. But let these same two ladies meet on the street and have political campaign buttons not be identical and the air is cool. o o o Somebody should have told Senator Byrd that the high school football fiends have a complaint to make against him. How can they see the Friday nig$it football game and still hear the Senator’s talk at 9:30? Doesn’t he realize that the game isn’t over by then?,. There will be conflicting loyalties: which shall it be? The football game, or Senator Byrd? Well, let’s see, the football game won’t be described, play by play, in Saturday's paper; and I’ll bet my bottom nickel the papers won’t miss the Senator's speech!

New Signs To Be Erected At County Line - County name traffic signs will be erected at the county line on all Secondary roads coming into Rappahannock County, as part of a State wide plan to designate the county boundaries on all farm-to*market roads. In announcing the plan to erect the new signs, the State Highway Department stressed that the markers have no le^al status, but are only informative. Frequently, they explained, the line may be in the middle of a stream, while the makers will be placed at bridge ends to simply tell the traveler that he is entering another county. While their principal function will be to inform the traveler of his location on the highway, the signs will probably serve other purposes., H.J, Neale, landscape engineer for, the State Department, pointed out that different hunting, fishing and other laws exist in various counties and the signs will be a guide to the territory. They will also proclaim in large black letters that the traveler is entering Rappahannock County. Apple Trees Hart By Mice Field mice will be attacking the roots of Virginia’s apple trees this fall and winter if growers don’t guard against them. Fred Dreiling, associate horticulturist at VPI, §ays the mice, in search of food and shelter, tunnel down around the fruit trees and feed on the roots. To stop this kind of damage, Dreiling suggests clean cultivation in the orchards, especially in young orchards. The mice move more readily into an orchard where there is a grass cover for protection. Wire guards also can be placed around young trees, bpt this protectioft isn’t too effective for pine mice. Poisoning to kill iptee is necessary. Use zinc phosphide in cut-up apple' cubes, or strychnine in some small grain. Place poison in mice runways or in the areas where the mice are concentrated. of their! mother, Mrs. Catherine Brown, leaving Sunday for Washington, D. C where they will reside. Mr. and Mrs. R. E.

Observance of Virginia Natural Resources Conservation Week By Governor John S. Bottle Our natural resources are the very foundation of our great industrial and agricultural strength. Productive land on which good crop's, pastures or firests will grow and which will sustain wildlife is the most valuable resource on earth. The misuse and improper treatment of our land over the years has caused accelerated soil erosion, ruinous floods, sedimentation of our reserviors and harbors and many other forms of severe damage. Experiments conducted at our Land Grant College at Blacksburg show that the steeper slopes when used to produce an open cultivated crop such as corn may loose as high as 90 to 100 tons cf soil per acre.for year. Tins is a loss of not only valuable topsoil but by test the eroded materials have been found to contain Stop At The ! ATLANTIC SIGN J. BRADLEY ATKINS Atlantic Service Station SPERRY VILLE, VA '• L. B. DULIN, JR. DISTRIBUTOR Atlantic Refining Company CULPEPER, VA five to ten times the plant food required to produce a 100 bushel per acre corn crop. No less important the the accompanying water loses which are so essential to crop production. Needless to say, these figures should arouse the interest and command the attention of - the people of this great Commonwealth. We must redouble our efforts to prevent the continuation of such destructive soil and water losses. I am glad to report that the citizens of this state have already made notable progress in correcting this condition. One example of this action is the widespread application of the practice of contopr strip cropping combined with other necessary supporting conservation measures. It has been shown by tests that this practice reduces soil and water losses to one tenth of those occurring with conventional straight row cultivation. And this is only one of a large number of effective conservation practices being used in a sound landuse program in this State to combat soil and water losses—I congratulate you. The progress -that _ we have made should encourage and inspire us to do a better job in the fptur°. We must lift our sights and increase our ~gffoils to conserve and -develop these resources—the resources that have played such an important part in making ours a leading State.. It is both fitting and. appropriate that 1 should commend the farm people who have taken the leadership in forming and developing programs of Soil Conservation ^districts to conserve and rebuild these resources. Already 92% of the farm lands of iJvT State have been organized into Soil Conservation Districts and more than 30,000 landowners are actively participating in the programs of these districts. I had occasion at the last annual Meeting of the Virginia Association of Soil Conservation District Supervisors to hear one of these cooperating farmers tell the story of his success. His report was an inspiring one—a challenging one—challenging not only to the 150,000 landowners of the state but to the entire citizenry. He told how conservation farming combined with other good farm ' management practices had increased his crop yields, raised his farm income and improved the standard of living of his family. My observation as I travel the State bears out the testimony of this young Virginia farmer. Using our lands to produce the crops for which they are best suited and treating them to keep them permanently productive does pay. It pays both in dollars and cents and in satisfaction—satisfaction that is derived from being a good steward of the heritage entrusted to our care. The Virginia law which makes possible the establishment of districts as local self-government organizations KEEP THOSE FARM BUILDINGS IN HAND! I. . ■ Modernise your dairy barn, re-roof your tractor and drying •bode, build a now bog bouso and increase your storage space. Regular repairs and improvements with our quality materials will help you keep farm production at a peak and keep maintenance costs down. Lot’s talk it over this week. CULPEPER BUILDING & SUPPLY CORPORATION Phone 8770 CULPEPER “Buy and Build With Confidence” places the responsibility for formulating and carrying out an erosion control program squarely on the shoulders of local people. The success that has been achieved thus far in districts has in no small measure been due to the very excellent manner in which this responsibility has been assumed. Had it not been for the teamwork of Soil Conservation District Supervisors, cooperating farmers representatives of Agricultural Agencies and the many local organizations which have cooperated so well with this program, these very encouraging results could not have been attained. Noteworthy of the success of this kind of cooperative effort is found in the recently conducted pasture program in the State. This program which is contributing much to the conservation of our soil and water resources has received the full support of Virginia people and the results have been phenominal. As we focus our attention this week on the preservation of our soils, water, forests, and wildlife, I urge that you do not forget that the job of conserving and developing these resources is a continuous one. I appeal to tiie Agricultural Agencies of the -State and to the entire citizenship to examine the possibilities of stepping up the rate of conserving these resources that those who follow us may continue to point with pride to the words of our forefathers as they beheld the Virgin Coast of Virginia. They said of this great Commonwealth and I quote, “Heaven and Earth never consuired together to make a land better suited for man’s Habitation.^ May our inherited right to share in this acclai.mation never he lost.

Changes In Apple . Marketing Needed Need for an immediate change in apple production and marketing practices in Virginia is pointed up in a recent study by the VPI Agricultural Extension Service and the State Department of Agriculture. The officials back up their plea for changes with some facts. For instance: apple rail unloads at Norfolk in 1950 totalled 89 carlots, of which 81 were from the Pacific Northwest. Apple unloads at Richmond and Roanoke were 80 9arlots, with 78 from the Pacific Northwest. “When apples from other states can pay the increased transportation ^charges required and still sell in local ’markets to the disadvantage of Virginia growers, there is need for immediate change,’* they contend. Competition from other fruits also jis a factor. A recent New York study |showed that of the total money "spent for fruit, bananas represented 32 |percent, oranges 25 percent, apples (a lowly third) 12 percent, gr a pelf ruit 10 per cent, and strawberries 5 tercent. The other 16 percent was _ent for 18 other fruits. The officials say principal apple producing regions in Virginia are exacted to retain their importance, while smaller orchards on submarginal land will become of less importance for future market supplies. The part of the Virginia apple crop used by processors exceeds the national average, and is not expected to increase. Market demand is expected to continue good for such varieties as Red Delicious arid red sports of Winesap, Stayman, York, and Rome Beauty; Also Golden Delicious and Grimes Golden. The study points out that first requirements in economical apple marketing are quality product, high labor efficiency and high yields. Wholesalers and retailers prefer apples of high quality, picked firm, placed in •cold storage, box packed by count, graded, inspected and kept cold until used. Specific suggestions: The use of picking tickets, careful emptying of picking bags into field crates, care on the grading table, fffoper packing with a proper bulge, stacking on the side and proper handling in retail stores will greatly reduce bruising. Apples of U.S. Fancy grade and better should be packaged in N.W. box or tray packed, either placed or wrapped, in eastern boxes. Apples of U. S. No. 1 or U.S. Utility grade, not less than 2 1/2 inch minimum diameter, should be packed in the eastern boxes or bushel baskets. A program of continuous inspection and quality identification is recommended. The use of conveyers reduces labor and bruising and where the entrances into cold storage is protected by a heavy canvas flap, temperatures may be kept low at minimum cost. The use of pallets and fork lifts is recommended for use in packing sheds and Order of Publication To Gideon Wilson, if alive, an i if dead to his personal representatives, devises, heirs at law and assigns, whose names and whereabouts are unknown and who are proceeded against in this case as parties unknown. Take notice that the undersigned, Edmund Burke, will on the 14th day of November, 1952, at the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of Rappahannock Coun ty, Virginia, in the Town of Washington, Virginia, apply to James M. Settle, Clerk of the Circuit Court of Rappahannock County, Virginia, for a deed conveying to me a certain parcel of real estate, containing 122.72 acres, located in Stonewall Magisterial District, Rappahannock County, Va., which was sold by the Treasurer of Rappahannock County, Virginia, at auction on the 19th day of March, 1949, for delinquent taxes for the year 1946, assessed in the name of Gideon Wilson and was purchased by Edmund Burke. Salfjronfirmed by order of Court on'"May 12, 1952. Any one having the right to redeem this land may redeem it at any time before the execution of a. deed by the Clerk, by the payment to the Clerk of the necessary amount due on said land for taxes, interest, penalties ahd cost of sale. (7-10 to 11-10) (signed) EDMUND BURKE cold storages by larger growers or handlers. When apple crops are large, sales in the fall should be such as not to have more than 42,000,000 bushels of apples in cold storage on December 1 of any year under demand conditions similar to the present. A movement of about 6 million bushels of apples out of cold storage should take place each month. Specific varieties should be moved into' consumption at their proper time. The first and last apples of each variety placed in cold storage should be moved out first. Retail displays in bulk and consumer packs of from 4 to 6 pounds should be promoted by special displays on Fridays and Saturdays of each week from September to June. Apples should be priced by retailers \ in 4-6 pound units. Advertising of apples should be expanded and be in harmony with the varieties then moving in greatest supply. A great deal could be accomplished with an advertising and pro' motional campaign directed at retailers. Sgt. Hawkins Enters College Sgt. Paul D.

Aylor Jr., and their daughter, Stevie spent last Thursday shopping in Washington, D.C. Reasons Behind Low Turkey Prices Why are turkey prices so low? The answer to that question as Dr. R. C. Krueger, poultry marketing specialist at VPI, sees it, lies on the supply side of the picture. Prices for the past few years have been favorable. It is relatively easy for people to get into turkey farming, or at least to raise some turkeys as a side line. Producers in general have been increasing the size of their opertions because larger flocks are more economical. This constant increase in supply lias caused the markef to reach a saturation point—this point actually was reached last fall. Prices did not fall drastically at that time, however, because thousands of turkeys were placed in cold storage. The size of the turkey crop again this year had a depressing effect on price. Futhermore there are still 56,000,000 pounds of turkey in cold storage held over from last year. The result is that the already depressed price from this year’s supply is depressed still farther from last season’s holdover. Dr. Krueger says if growers had been willing to sell their turkeys at a little lower price last year instead of THE EDUCATION OF A PHARMACIST The Druggist Is Trained To COOPERATE WITH DOCTORS AND DENTISTS From the beginning of his college training until graduation, the druggist is taught his particular place in the health professions, that of serving as an “extension arm” to the physicians and dentists . of the community.

The flowers were carried by cousins of the family. storing them, the public would have bought more turkey, storage costs would have - been avoided, and there would not have been an added burden on this year’s already over-supplied market. Dr. Krueger reports that Virginia passed Minnesota this year and moved into second place in the nation in turkey production. Virginia led the nation in production increases this year, far surpassing the average increase of t^ pefcenT amT topping the South Atlantic area which registered the largest regional increase of 41 percent. Virginia also leads the nation in Beltsville White production and is well ahead in year-round marketing of young birds. The names of 26 states in the United States originated from Indian words.
