WATCH OUT for a story about Rappahannock during the remainder of August or early September on the1 farm page of the Richmond Times Dispatch. “Ham” Crockford and his camera were in the county the latter part of July getting material for a story.

Rappahannock farmers estimate the corn yield has been raised 85% and the hay 50% by the drought. Reports have been made by your county agent to Henry M. Taylor and the State (Extension Office on the local situation^ CThese jnen are working with Governor Battle’s drought relief committee but my advice is to do all you can to help yourself.

While in Culpeper recently, I asked a farmer and business man if he had started praying for rain yet. His reply was: "No, the Lord will give us rain when He wants to, what we better pray for is forgiveness of our sins.” No doubt we need to include both in our prayers.
