Lyne County Agent .•MttMMItHHMMHmttMIIHmiMItMHtMMIMaiMttNNtMIM, At a discussion on artificial breeding of dairy cattle, led by Keith A. Houston of the V.P. I. Dairy Husbandry Department at the Court House last Friday night seven Rappahannock milk shippers stated they had a total of 87 head which they would like to have bred artficial. As a result of the interest a countywide survey will be made to determine frasibility of farming a local association or whether to try to tie in with some of the local organizations of Fauquier or Culpeper Co This year a total of 43,000 dafry cows have been bred artificially in Virginia. These cows being owned by members of the 33 local cooperatives serving 70 of the 99 counties in Virginia. borne advantages ot artiicial breeding are: 1st. A small daryman (20 cows or less) can get the services of proven bulls known to transmit high production to his daughters where as very few dairymen can afford to buy such an animal even when for sale at any price! 2nd. Services from either Holstein, Guernsey or Jersey bulls are available through the Coop Bull Center, at Rocky Mount, Virgnia where very outstanding bulls are beng used. 3rd. Artificial breeding usually costs the owner of afew cows much less than is the cost of keeping a bull and there is not the risk involved in getting heifers of undiserable characterstics. 4th. Another cow to ship milk from can be kept in place of the bull usually kept. Of course there are many other reasons which might be listed such as getting high producton in much less time comparatively speaking, better opportunity of disease control as well as disease preventon, etc. Then too, there are headaches involved particularly in gettng such an association started. First oF all 11001200 cows are meeded to employ a full time inseminaton; 500 to even get started with a part-time technician. Secondly, the job of locating a technician In Rappahannock probably the best solution to the latter will be locating and training a local member ©f the proposed associaton. Dr. W. L. Wake has indicated a keen desire to help in getting started Persons who have already said they “wanna jine” are Glen Williams (15 head), Woodrow Coughlin (20 head), Daniel Jacobs (16-20 head), Fred Dodson (6 head), Clifford Dennis (10-12 head), J. M. Dennis (15 head). Franklin Grimslev (5-6 head). Also it has been reported that Ellis Bennett will probably want to enter 9-10 head of Gurnseys. At present there are around forty milk shippers in the county who own an estimated 425 cows and heifers of breeding age and the dairy cattle population is increasing rapidly. Then too, there are the family cows to consider. Actually some believe this program if it can be started will benefit the beef breeder as well. For example it will reduce the entry of a |@g of dairy bulls into the county and therein -*duce the chances of those nice brood bed cows getting accidently bred by the wrong type bulb Also these breeders frequently have several dairy type cows on their place to supply their homes as well as those of their help with milk and butter. An artificial breeding association will enable him to raise his own familycow replacement* instead of having to go look for one elsewhere and thus take the dunce of bringng home Brucellosis or some other contagious disease; . - ... J . j***- lyrfirtttum.i. First Known Republican Listing in County History; Hampton and Jackson Districts Remain Democratic For the first time in known history of Rappahannock County, a majority of 101 votes for the Republican candidate, Dwight D. Eisenhower, threw the county into the Republican column. In a total tally of 619 to 518, the traditionally Democratic *<‘Free State of Rappahannock” bowed to a Republican Party vote in four of the six precincts. ' Hampton Magisterial District (in and around the county seat of Washington) gave the Democratic nominee, Adlai E. Stevenson, 154 votes to the Republican 138. This 22 majority was followed by Jackson Magisterial District (in and * around Amissville) with a Stevenson victory of 90 jto 85 votes for the Republican candidate. Ladies Auxiliary Meeting The Ladies Auxiliary of the Rappahannock Fire Company held its regular meeting, Monday, at 6:30 p.m. with nine members present. Acting president, Mrs. B. R. Cox, pre^ sided and opened the meeting with a prayer for peace. The committee served a pancake supper with country sausage, syrup ‘and coffee. High lights of the meetng were plans for making money, election of officers and prizes for Christmas decorations in town. A dance to be given at the high school December 26 and patching a pair of overalls with a piece of money by the men, in Hampton District were decided upon for finances. The committees appointed for the dance were Mrs. B. R. Cox and Miss Ruth Stevens at the door and the food and drinks committee consisted of Mrs. Elizabeth H. DeBergh, Mrs. Wade Pullen, Mrs. R. L. Massie and Mrs. D. D. Miller. Mrs. D. D. Miller was appointed to start the overalls rolling for patches, immedately if any of you men are overlooked, please notify one of the members of the Auxiliary. The ladies patched aprons last year and it was not only fun but added a considerable amount to the treasurer. Resignations of our president, Mrs. Wade H. Massie Jr. and Secretary, Miss Ruby Jenkins were accepted with regrets as they both have made good officers and the fire company appreciates their splendid work. Mrs. Cox appointed agnominating committee consisting dt Mrs. Wade Pullen, Miss Alice Mae Coughlin and Mrs. Charles Bruce. After a recess the following names were submitted and elected: President, Mrs. Elizabeth H. DeBergh; Vice President, Mrs. B. R. Cox; Treasurer, Miss Ruth Stevens and Secretary, Mrs. D. D. Miller. Decoratons for Christmas would be given as in the past with one change, that is the three prizes will be awarded for the best outside Christmas decoration and not just for the door. The judges will consist of three out of town lades in Hampton District, who will judge the decorations not later than December 26. -—r-——- ——* Baptist Parsonage Fnnd Goes Oyer Top On Sunday, November 2 the Amissville Baptist Church observed its first quarter’s “Fund Day” for a parsonage. The goal had been set at $100Q.00. Everybody’s heart rejoiced when the contents of the collection plates were counted and $1,200.77 in cash and $360.00 in pledges were realized making a grand total of $1560.77. The steering committee is humbly grateful and wishes to thank those who helped to make this first quarter’s drive a success. The committee is to be commended for its excellent work.* Church Services John Bradley of Luray is holding prayer service and Bible study at the Beach Spring Regular Baptist Church each Thursday night at 7:30 “ Piedmont District (Sperryville) grave the largest Republican vote, 135, to 117 for the Democrats, but the largest Republican victory was in Wakefield District . (Flint THiil and Huntly) where 119 Republican votes downed only 69 Democratic votes. Stonewall District (Woodville) which had been marked by predictions as a 2-to-l spot for Republican votes, missed the count by giving a 29-vote Republican victory, 89 to 6-0. Hawthorne District (Hawlin, Slate Mills) had 68 Republican votes, with 28 Democratic ballots. Following the state and the nation, Rappahannock county gave a shock in many quarters. Even in 1928, when the state and nation went to Republican candidate Herbert Hoover, Rappahannock stayed in the Democratic column. The story goes that it was at this time the county assumed its title of “Free State of Rappahannock/' in threatening to secede from a state that would join the Republican lists. In Jackson District there was one vote for the Socialist-Labor candidate, Eric Haas. It is generally explained that this Voter became confused and thought he was marking a “Democrat for Eisenhower” ballot, although there is a possibility he knew what he was doing and meant to mark that party label. Senator Harry F. Byrd drew a total county vote of only 833 of approximately 1169 votes cast. Three write-in votes for Governor Battle in Hampton district; one in Piedmont, and one in Wakefield were interpreted as protest votes against Byrd’s anti-Truman stand. Representative Burr P. Harrison roundly defeated his Republican ODDonent 797 to 62. A. E. S. Stephens received a large majority over Republican Waitt, but this total was incomplete, lacking the Hawthorne distric report. The Constitutional amendment Voted “for" almost Iwo-to-one in all districts except Hawthorn, from which no report could be reached by telephone yesterday. In the vote for Lieutenant-Governor there were 26 write-in votes recorded for State Senator Raymond Guest, while Wakefield district wrote-in 56 votes for him, and Piedmont district wrote-in 9. This write-in vote has been explained, and yet, part of the story remains a mystery. So far as can be ascertained, there was no objection the Democratic candidate, A. E. S. Stephens. One Republican voter, wearing an “Ike" button, termed the Senator Guest Write-in as a “courtesy” or “complimentary” vote. When asked for what Senator Guest was being “complimented,” he replied, “For what he has done.” A Democratic Voter, wearing a Stevenson button, said, “We ‘complimented' him (Senator Guest) on his first term’s service in the State Senate by sending him back for a second term. What is this 'compliment* fort” The reply came from the Republican voter: “For the stand he took in this election.” “Oh. ves.”

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 Looking to the Future “It’s time for a change” is now a reality, with the Republican presidential nominee sweeping into office on a large victory. The nation has stood through some rough going, always avowing that the most people will be more nearly right most of the time. That principle of majority rule has proved correct more times than incorrect, and we, as Americans, face the future confidently, knowing that we have made our choice and nolw we shall work to see that qjir choice proves right. The President-Elect needs the prayers of the entire nation. It’s a big job he has agreed to take on; he knows it, and every citizen in the country knows it. Within the heart of 158,000,000 Americans, there is probably not one man who would gladly change places with him today. The responsibilities shock us, but the future president can rest assured that every American will give him support and encouragement for his task as chief executive. As any vote will show inJ any election, there are always those of the minority who did not agree with iwhat proved to be the majoriy. The minority is not always wrong and the majority always right; nor is the reverse true. The future is good, mainly because Americans know that their country is good. Every political election may not please everyone, but the nation is for the good of all, and with that goal we all work together. * Letter To Editor Halloween has always been a time of pranks and fun, but when there is destruction of property, farm gates removed and dragged or hauled away, letting people’s cattle out, it seems that fun has gotten out of bounds and borders on lawlessness. If the prankers who removed two of my gates on my farm near Amissville would return them or let me know where they left them, I should greatly appreciate it I did find one of them which had been dragged a quarter of a mile and left in the middle of the road but have no idea where the other one is, You have had your fun, now please return my gate which you have taken away. —Mrs. J.

It reached the point of a good, hearty laugh, when even late Tuesday night, General Eisenhower marking up an ever-increasing majority, the radio and television news-casters still hung on to their pet phrases of the past three (weeks: “This is no predicion; this is not final; there may be a change even yet; we refrain from making any statements.” weanesaay predictions nad a little more confidence. With the Eisenhower majority becoming more and more enormous, the news-casters got real, brave. They made a few tentative suggestions that Eisenhower was elected. Then, gathering courage from theib first staggering steps in many sedentary months, they saw the death of the Democratic Party and predicted it as such. They stated that a new second party may evolve, but by what name it would be called they did not say. By that time they had used the strength required for that first brave, infant step in prognostication, and the old lethargy of fear had returned. Borne jokster commented that they wouldn’t even let the body of the poor-old Democratic Party get cold before hey started dividing the inheritance! One commentator stated that future parties would be liberal and conservative, but by what name they would be known lies in the future. It sounded as if ho were reporting on England, but maybe he was overly influenced by the news of the opening of Parliament and just got his countries mixed up. Abraham Lincoln was six feet four inches tall. \ PITTS DRIVE-IN THEATRE C ULPEPER On Brandy Road (Route 15) \Vz Mile9 North of Culpeper 2 Shows N'Khtly: 7:30 and 9:30 A CAR FULL FOR $1-00 Plus 20C tax . .

A couple of stories of children have come out of the now-paathistory (thank goodness!) election. One story tells of a small lad, not old enough to attend school, who went to the polls - with his grandfather. He came back home with an exciting report: “I voted, tool” 4‘Well, well,” commented the family, “and who did you vote for?'* “Granddaddy!" came the satisfied reply. xi is guaranteed tnat no oxner candidate received such a flattering vote. This one that the little fellow cast in imagination for his grandfather was a vote straight from the heart, with no party labels, no loyalties due and expressed, no anti-sentiments nor bitterness. IHis was a vote of pure love, and he picked a candidate he knew was 100% light! The bther election story is a sad one. A little girl had listened for weeks to all the election talk. She believed every word of it. She knew that if her daddy’s candidate were defeated, everyone would be in the poor-house the fol1 Owing day; all the soldier-boys would be killed immediately; and no end of terrible events would befall the nation. The sad “next morning” arrived, and she learned that daddy’s candidate had been dfeated. Crestfallen, she disappeared upstairs. They found her some hours later, up in the attic, sobbing as if her heart would break. She thought all campaign talk would now materialize ! It took some minutes to convince the little girl that campaign talk had always been that way, and that, despite the wild talk, the country has withstood most promised calamities and this time, also, the nation would continue to roll on—probably with little real change. o' o o I told the preacher not to buy that second-hand car. He doesn’t have the vocabulary to run it. ( o o o Something must be done about these fresh youngsters. You never realize how old age is slipping up on you until one of the younger fry tells you off. They’re respectful; oh, yes, they look meek and speak mildly;; but then, they throw something like this: “definition of a chaperone—old maid who never made the first team but still hopes to intercept a few passes.” A good spanking is awaiting the Pitts Park THEATRE Front Royal, Virginia THURSDAY, NOV. 6 t ALAN LADD * LIZABETH SCOTT ..— ill — - v — “RED MOUNTAIN” (Color by Technicolor) FRI. - SAT., NOV. 7 - 8 WILD BILL ELLIOTT — in — “KANSAS TERRITORY” Filmed in Sepia Tone SUN. - MON. - TUBS.

O O 0 The fellow from the city went out on a hunting trip and as he had never hunted before, he didn’t know' exactly what he’d killed when he felled a mountain goat. Nevertheless, he loaded the hairy creature into the trunk of his car and headed back for town. A few minutes later, he stopped at an isolated farmhouse to get a cup of water, and the farmer asked him if he had any luck hunting. “I got something, all right, but can’t rightly say what it is,” the hunter said. “It has long shaggy hair, smells bad, and it put up a helluva squawk before I shot it— sort of a mumbling sound, like it was begging for something.” The farmer’s face turned white. He exclaimed: “You dern fool— I bet you’ve shot my wife!” A hamlet is a village without a church. Where Of A Man Speaks By W. H. Lyn® Today there are many worthy articles appearing in agricultural publications on soils. People, particularly Rappahannock fanners, are becoming keenly interested in soils which fact is most pleasing. Pleasing because our soils in their natural state or man caused conditions, affect us all. Sometimes these articles contain terminology or nomenclature which is unfamiliar to the reader unless he or she be a soils technician. Neither you nor I can truly learn unless we know where of a man speaks. I’m interested in soils; you are interested in soils; you are interested in soils, prehaps the following may be fundamentally simple to you but frankly I had to do some reading . . . ask some questions, express my interpretation to others and get theirs to make more sure that words and phrases were having their intended meaning to me. Now I will attempt to explain below what is meant by some of the * terms used in articles published on soils and characteristics of soils with hope that my scant knowledge on the subject may give a greater understanding to some of you.

SURFACE TEXTURE Soil texture refers to the relative proportions of sand, silt and day. partides. A% loam is about an equal loam consists of a large proportion of silt with some sand and day. A sandy proportion of sand, silt and clay. Silt loam contains a larger proportion of sand with some silt and clay. Similarly, a day loam contains larger proportion of day with some silt and sand. Surface texture is closely related to workability. It influences how quickly or slowly a soil will wash, water intake and other soil characteristics. Particles of clay are more fine than particles of silt and each is more fine than particles of sand. SUBSOIL CONSISTENCE Consistence is the resistence to breakdown or the extent soil particles hold together. A loose soil as ofle would think does not hold. together. A friable soil holds together but crushes easily with slight to moderate pressure A firm subsoil crushes under moderate to strong pressure. UtFlH. U.b isUlL Depth of soil refers to feeding of roots. It is the depth or layer of soil most favorable for growth of roots and for storage of water and plant food, above a layer that differs enough from the overlying material either in chemical or physical properties to seriously slow up or stop root growth. A soil may be shallow over rock, claypan, hardpan, gravel or other material. Very deep-60,” deep-36”-60,” moderate-2-36, in. shalIow-l0”-i20,” very shallow-10”. Claypan is a fine textured compact subsoil layer which integers with water movement or root development. Claypan is not cemented and if put under water can be worked into a soft mass. Hardpan is cemented. PERMIABILITY Permiability is the rate of movement of water or air through each soil layer. |Jt may be defined as the capacity of the soil to allow passage of water and air. It refers to the speed that water and air passes through soil’ in terms of inches per hour' Slow permiability is usually associated with heavy soils as clay, loams, and Rapid with light or moderately light textures as friable » THE EDUCATION OF A PHARMACIST The Druggist Continues To Learn Through EXPERIENCE , —. __ . •..7 ' _,v. i The education of a druggist doesn’t stop after he has graduated from college and passed his state examination. It continues through every day of his practice. Throughconstant service to the public and to the physicians and dentists in the community, he learns what is expected of him and how to render his services most efficiently. Your Druggist Is Trained To Serve Your Health Needs DIAL 8322 CULPEPER. VA. PSESCBX9PT10NS ACCURATELY COMPOUNDED sandy loams and clay loams. DRAINAGE External drainage is closely related to slope. Internal dnunage depends on the permiability of soil and the material beneath it or both. Excessive drainage exists where water is removed very rapidly due to steep slopes, course soil material or both and such soils are unsuitable for ordinary crop production. A well drained condition exists where water is removed readily but not rapidly. The soil may be mottled at a depth of several feet. Amoderately well drained soil is one in which water is removed somewhat slowly. These soils have a slowly permiable layer within or just below the subsoil. Mottling occurs in the lower part of subsoil. Imperfectly drained, with this condition the water is removed from the soil so slowly that it remains wet for long periods of time. This condition is usually associated with a high water table and a slowly permiable layer near the surface. It usually marks a depth of from 8’ to 16.” Poorly drained is a condition in which the soil remains wet much of the time. This is due to a slowly permiable layer, high water table, seepage or a combination of these. Mottling usually appears at the surface with gray color predominating. SLOPE Slope of land is expressed in terms of percent slope. Slope is measured in terms of difference in elevation per 100 feet on the level. Terms expressing the degree of slope are as follows. Nearly level, usually 2% or less. Gently sloping, usually 2% to 6%. Sloping, usually 6% to 15%. Moderately steep, usually 15 %• to 25%. —: J ; Steep, usually from 25% to 50%. Very steep, usually 50% plus. Land has 100% slope when it lays at an angle 45 degrees from the horizontal. A vertical cliff, or one that is straight up or down has no slope. ^ EROSION Erosion is the loss of soil by wind or water. In country like ours there is very little wind erosion yet we here in the east have had rains that splotch perfectly clean windows or windshields, a result of rain falling through air carrying soil particles caused by wind erosion out west. Terms expressing the degree of erosion are as follows: Slight, less than 25% of topsoil removed. Moderate, 25% to 75% of topsoil removed and there may be occassional gullies present. Severe, 75 % or more of topsoil removed or all of top soil and as much as 25% of subsoil removed. Frequent shallow gullies or occasional deep gullies may be present. Very severe, all of top soil and 25 to 75% of the subsoil removed. Very frequent gullies may be present. Physical properties determine typeerosion and slope determine phase or variation of type. Chemical" characteristics and physical affect productivity of soil while the physical slope and erosion primarily determine the best use. Greater interest in soils phase their physical and chemical properties govern its best use._ . • <.

Test Soil Nov For Alfalfa Seedings In‘53 Take a soil test now in the field where you are going to seed alfalfa next year. W. H. Lyne, county agent, says a soil test is particularly important because alfalfa has higher lime and fertilizer requirements than do most crops. The pH test to grow alfalfa successfully should be from 6.5 to 7.0, which is higher that that needed for red or ladino clover. The pH test determines lime needs. The agent explains that a soil test now will make it possible to apply the correct amount of lime, if needed, on the land this fall. Then the soil reaction will be right when the alfalfa is seeded in 1953. Where the pH is very low, lime should be applied at least six months before seeding alfalfa, and another soil test made before seeding. It costs between $35 and $50 per acre to seed alfalfa, so don’t take chances on lime needs. Soil tests also will show the fertility level of phosphorus potash, and calcium. Alfalfa is a heavy user of potash. The test will indicate whether or not potash or phosphorus is needed other than that regularly recommended. Soil boxes and record sheets with instructions for taking samples are available in Mr. Lynes office in the Courthouse. The agent points out that alfalfa is one of the best forage crops. In the past it has been used mostly for hay. Now farmers are using alfalfa successfully for grass silage and in their grazing programs. Mr. Lyne also reports that seed of Williamsburg, a new alfalfa variety developed in Virginia, Will be available for seeding in 1953. It has been particularly outstanding in Southern Piedmont and the eastren part of Virginia. Williamsburg, Atlantic and Buffalo are the leading varieties in Northern Piedmont and west of the Blue Ridge. v TURKEY SHOOT A.C. Latham Jr. has some beautiful fat turkeys to give a way.

The fire companies saved the house Cull Beef Herds, Hast Advises An expected decline in beef prices this fall and winter, and feed shortage, add up to make this a good time to cull beef herds in Virginia. Curtis Mast, associate animal husbandman at VPI, says for the past - five years cattle prices have been on a steady upgrade, and ifiost farmers have solid heifer calves rather than keep them for replacements. Now they have many old cows, poor milkers, shy breeders, and off-colored cows in the herds. ___ Now is* good time to select good heifer cows to replace cull cows. Further, “there’s no better way to stretch the already short feed supply than culling,” Mast says. Farmers who are short of winter feed must remember that their beef cow herd is their “working capital,” and they must do everything possible to keep the good producers, but with the high price of feed this is no time to keep the markinal cows, he added. Farmers who do not have enough feed to get their herds through the winter should make arrangements immediately to get protein supple ments to help stretch the roughage supplies. Sheep, Cattle Are good Team , If Virginia could get no wool except that produced by sheep in the State, each 12 persons would be competing this year for the wool from one sheep's back. The wool from one sheep makes one suit and an extra pair of pants." G. A. Allen, Jr., sheep specialist at VPI, says the need for more sheep in Virginia is illustrated by the imports of wool made to the state. He says there is no need for this because sheep fit like a hand in a glove into diversified farming. A boom in beef cattle in the south is underway, but this need not exclude sheep. In an area where a farmer can’t pasture another cow, he can keep six sheep, because sheep eat 90 percent of the natural weeds at some stage of growth, while cattle will eat only 10 percent. Then, too, cattle will graze grasses sheep will leave, so pastures are better off with both sheen and cattle. Allen warns, however, against stocking too heavily. A good rule of thumb is one sheep per cow, or one sheep for every 1,000 pounds of beef. Of course there are problems in the sheep industry, such as lpsses from dogs and internal parasites. However, the dog menace can be .controlled, and internal parasites can be checked with use of phenothiazine. Allen said oM-timers tell newcomers ir| the sheep business that it takes 275 pounds of green leafy legume hay and 90 pounds of grain to winter a ewe that lambs in January. But this amount can be decreased if there is green winter pasture. Small grain pastured at the rate of five ewes and their lambs per acre will cut the grain and hay needs in half. Part-Time Farming Answer For Man; Wbo like Country Life, Extra Income Part-time farming may be the answer for you if you have or want a town or city job but still like “life in the country.” E. D. Chastain, Jr., associate economist at VPI, says the trend toward part-time farming is on the upswing. Part-time farmers, however, do not include those who live in the country but produce little if any farm products for sale. Neither do they include those who depend on the farm for a living but actually produce only for farm use. Chastain lists these advantages of part-time farming: It furnishes an additional source of income to the farm family through products sold from the farm, the cost of living can be reduced by using products in the home, and it provides an opportunity for a family to enjoy the advantages of living in the country. Often of prime value is the security factor— a part-time farm will help tide. you over in times of unfavorable economic conditions or during periods of unemployment. However, there are some drawbacks. The part-time farmer will usually have to work after the regular“working day” at a job elsewhere. Transportation is often a problem, and when job opportunities appear somewhere else, it is not as easy to move as if you were living in an urban area. There are several factors which influence the success of the part-time farmer. Anyone who farms should really to do so. If you want only "a home in the country,” likely you should not raise. produce for sale. It must be possible for you to work at both jobs satisfactorily. The travel involved should not hamper work on either the farm or at the off-farm job. The type of farming should be considered in terms of time permitted by off-farm work.

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 1 year 1946, assessed in the name of Gideon Wilson and was purchased by Edmund Burke.

T. C. Slaughter, Culpeper; Douglas Swan, Brandy; H. N. Hutcherson, Winston; R. W. Pound, Brandy and Winston Somerville, Winston were included in the group. All of these farmers are eligible to receive financial assistance from the Production Marketing Administra-„ tion. In order to receive assistance from PMA construction work must meet approved engineering specifications. “These specifications are practical and reasonable and really the only way to do farm drainage work.” says H. N. Hutcherson. Mr. Hutcherson has done more of this type conservation work than any farmer in Culpeper County over the past three years. The drainage program consists of tile and open ditch, both of which are eligible for payment. P.M.A. allows 10c per linear foot for four inch tile, 15c for five and six inch tile and 12c per cubic yard for dirt removed from open drainage ditches. Four Culpeper arfd Rappahannock County farmers have completed construction of farm ponds. I. L. Parrish, Amissville, has constructed a 1.8 acre pond; Roy A. Brown, Stevensburg, 0.4 acre! Oscar G. Jones, Raccoon Ford, 1.5 acres and George R. Robson, Rixeyville, a 1/2 acre pond. Soil Conservation Service Technicians assisted the farmers in selecting their pond sites and in determining feasability of the project. S.C.S. Technicians also do the necessary engineering work 'and REPUBLICAN % (Continued from page 8) 'Said the Democratic voter, “I see now; you're ‘complimenting' him for bolting the party/' One Republican voter accused Mrs, Dorothy C. Davis, mayor of Washington, of being responsible for making the county go Republican, This was a little difficult to understand, since Mrs. Davis was an active worker as vice-chairman of the county Democratic campaign committee; most of her (work was done in her own town where she.is mayor; and that town showed a Democratic majority. The accusation was slightly confusing. The election was hot—there’s no doubt of it—but the days after seem to have calmed down more quickly than some observers predicted. supervise actual construction. Construction was accomplished with equipment rented from local contractors. The Culpeper Soil Conservation District makes fish for stocking the ponds available to cooperating farmers, who have constructed their ponds according to approved engineering * specifications. Ponds are stocked with large mouth Black Bass and Blue Gills on the basis of 1000 Blue Gills to 100 Bass per acre of surface water. The Rotary Club of Culpeper took advantage of the facilities provided by three ponds in the county last week when they sponsored the fishing contest for the “small fry.” When these little fellows really get the “fishin’ bug,” more farm ponds will be desired; WORLD °f FOOD p-« I CAM TAKE A < HINT THE EXPRESSION "&/ V7AG A PERSON THE COLD SHOULDER OATESBACK TO MEDIEVAL TIMES.
