RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE..-.#.. . . ..Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) $2.00 a year Still Cutting Down It looks like the Administration is cutting down on all in Washington. Assistant Air Force Secretary has issued a statement to the effect that a so-called “superConstellation” is being modified to take the place of the present plane President Eisenhower uses. Possibly this faster plane is being ‘modified’ so the President can get back from Colorado quicker and have more time for presidential duties. From this point it looks like it would be more practical to ‘modify’ some of these ‘super’ planes to transport our boys in service, and possibly eliminate some of the disasters like the one in Kentucky a few days ago thalt took 23 lives! “Always Give the Kids A Break” Fond hopes of parents are wrapped up in their children as they go off to school day after day. Perhaps the town’s banker, a famous research scientist, a noted lawyer is in the making; or a future President of the United States. Who knows for sure? Then, one day, tragic news shatters all such dreams. The child has been cut down by a speeding driver who couldn’t stop in time. Or the youngster was run over by a careless motorist who didn’t allow for the unexpected things a child might do while playing or riding a bicycle. The extent of these street and highway tragedies snuffing out the lives of promising boys and girls of school age or younger, or inflicting injuries that may cripple them permanently, is something every driver should know and always keep in his heart. In a single year approximately 4,300 school children under 15 are killed and 215,000 are injured. Well over half of them die and an even greater proportion are "hurt when struck by drivers who should be fully prepared for sudden emergencies when children are in the streets. The burden of caution rests squarely upon the shoulders of a driver who is approaching any child or group of children on a street or highway. Children’s actions are never predictable, although we have been able to train them in the ways of safety with some success. Usually it is when a driver is going too fast to stop safely, or thinking of other things rather than the very important job of driving properly, that he kills or injures one or more children of tender years. The protection of police or adult crossing guards at school intersections has helped greatly in keeping accidents at those places to a minimum. School boy safety patrols also have helped. Most drivers obey the signals of these protectors of children and respect the ever-present need for alertness and slower driving in speed zones near schools or play areas, or making a full stop when children are leaving or boarding a school bus. But even more than that is needed. To all drivers we commend the admonition: “Air ""ways give the kids a break.” Wheat Acreage Regulation Farmers who intend to seed wheat this fall much will not be harvested as a 1954 grain crop should report their intentions to the Production and Marketing Administration before the crop is seeded. Otherwise such wheat will be considered for use as grain and the acreage bn which it is produced will be counted against the farm’s acreage allotment. With rigid acreage controls in effect on the 1954 wheat crop, Virginia farmers must reduce their plantings about 26 per cent to cooperate with the program. The 1954 State Allotment is that much under the average amount of acreage which grawers reported they seeded for grain in 1952-53 according to Barksdale, chairman of the PM A Couny Committee. But he explained that Rappahannock County Farmers who want to seed wheat for green manure, cover crop, hay, or green silage, will not have such acreage charged as wheat under the quota program if they properly report to PMA in advance of planting the crop. With wheat seeding tiine not too far away, Mr. Barksdale reviewed some of the other provisions of "the marketing quota program on wheat which producers approved by 87 per cent in a Nation-w'ide referendum on August 14. Here are the principal points that farmers should keep in mind: (1) Any wheat harvested for grain, ivViPtKpr crvlrl rnrt cnmprl nn thf* r»r farm, -must be produced from acreage eligible - for_price support,.regardiess within the farm allotment to be of the size of the allotment. A farmer with no allotment is not eligible for price support. (2) Farmers who produce 16 or more acres of wheat for grain are subject to a marketing penalty on all wheat produced on acreage in excess of the farm allotment. Thus a farmer with 10-acre allotment who produces 16 acres must pay a marketing penalty on the production from 6 acres. Any farmer can produce as much as 15 acres of wheat and market it free of penalty. . (3) Price supports in 1954 will be at 90 per cent of parity which means that the base rate in Virginia will likely be about the same as this year$2.37 to $2.41 per bushel. -(4)— The marketing—penalty—on "excess” wheat, set at 45 per cent of national parity, will probably be about $1.10 per bushel. (5) Compliance with individual farm acreage allotment will be determined by PMA. Wheat price supports mean a great deal to farmers, yet they will be denied to those farmers who render themselves ineligible through violating the wheat quota program regulations.” On STRASBURG ROAD FRONT ROYAL THURS.JFRI., OCT. 1 - 2 AL PEARCE —in— “HERE COMES ELMER” — HIT NO. 2 — SALLY PAYNE —in— “Mountain Rhythm” SATURDAY, OCT.* 3 CORNEL WILDE TERESA WRIGHT —in— “CALIFORNIA CONQUEST” (Color by Technicolor) SUN.-MON., OCT. 4-5 “CHAINED FOR LIFE” TUES.-WED., OCT. 6 - 7 HOWARD DUFF MONA FREEMAN ^ —-in— ‘The LADY from TEXAS' (Color by Technicolor) >: Assistant Cases Decline In Virginia A sharp drop in the number of cases on public assistance rolls in Virginia during July was reported today by Mrs. M.

J. B. JOHNSON, Auctioneer. r.VL. H. LUTTRELL, Executor of the estate of R. E. Luttrell - My Michigan Trip By W, H. Lyne, County Agent ; Most Rappahannock beef cattle producers know that Allen Randolph, Executive Secretary Virginia Beef Cattle Producers, and K. C. William- . son, Beef Cattle Marketing Specialist of the VPI Extension Service, did Virginia Feeder Calf Sales promotional work during the past summerWhat proved to be one of the most outstanding promotional schemes was the exhibit of Virginia Feeder Calves at the Lenawee County Fair in Michigan, which I was priviledged in taking part in. Rodes Brown and his State Feeder Calf Sale Committee, Allen, K. C. and Mr. McClaugherty, of the Vir- , ginia Division of Markets, had gotten together a representative lots of Virginia Hereford and^ Angus calves from breeders of the Charlottesville area. These calves were put on creep feeders in mid August, weaned -a couple of weeks later and trucked to _Blissfield, Michigan where they were unloaded at Wayne Lipps* farm. Allen > Randolph and Dr. Bartin, the latter of the state veterinarian department, had gone out with the calves which arrived at Lipps’ place Thursday after noon, August 17 making the 600 mile trip in 16 and a fraction hours. Since Allen had to return for the Atlantic. Rural, Barton to a convention in Atlantic City and K. C. Williamson being tied up with calf sales. already in process, Bryan Eller, county agent of Smith county, and I v, vuuvu IU vtxvy ail Wllil the calves talk and do most anything else we could towards furthering Virginia calves in the eyes and minds of Michigan Feeders. We arrived in Toledo early Sunday morning, September 20, where we were met by Messrs Randolph and Lipp and from there drove to Adrain, the county seat (population 20,000 plus 52 factories) of Lenawee county. Got a room at a tourist court, changed into work duds, off to Lipps farm to grind the week’s supply of feed, get it mixed, loaded and delivered to our tent at the fair grounds at Adrain. Then back to Lips to load calves in Robert Loves’ semi and head for the fair. Messrs Lip and Love, having done all of this gratis wouldn't think of accepting nay pay as they were truly appreciative of the Virginia Exhibit at their county fair. And while speaking of the Lenawee County Fair, do not think in terms of a county fair as held in Virginia for in size there is no comparison. The Lenawee Fair was as big as the Atlantic Rural with the exception of her beef breeding classes and with the exception that all classes were for Lenawee county residents. Lenawee County feeds 18,000 calves annually, the third largest cattle feeding county in the U. S. Feeder calves are bought in September and October, put on feed and kept in the barn until sold the following August and September. It is a great corn, soybean, alfalfa county having very productive lake bed soils. Our exhibit was well received and did good that will be felt for the next five to ten years. Practically every visitor to our tent was a feeder; they were all most complimentary about the calves on exhibition, and those who had bought in Virginia last year were walking-talking advertisements. these fellows praised our grading system, health program and general method of organization of feeder calf sales and were in addition ardent—Arthur Godfrey fans. Most farmers feed in the neighborhood of 60-70 calves (both heifers and steers), some as high as 400 head. They like feeders grading choice and fancy, "don’t want anything I’m not proud to show to a packer." To most, Virginia was a southern v state producing small boned southern cattle what we call “cracker cattle." They were amazed at the quality and bone in our calves on exhibit and we would have had a "dickens of a time” convincing them that there were more calves back home as good or better than the'12 Hereford and 15 Angus we had out there, had there not been some feeders around like Charlie Goetz who bought at the Rappahannock Angus sale last year, or for the 4-H baby beeves being exhibited that + came from Virginia, In the claSs of 47 Angus steets there were 13 bought at Virginia sales of which five were placed in the top (See LYNE’S TRIP, page 8) m v?4 : ; V MS r-r * SMITH’S BARBER SHOP 308 E.

HELENE’S SHOPS, INC. 211 East Main Street Front Royal MURIEL WILSON Duplicating America’s costliest cars, feature after feature, Ford is worth more when you buy it. . . worth more when you sell it! A FEW MINUTES on the telephone calling the dealers who . sell America’s finest cars will reveal there are at least eleven models among four makes with price tags over $4,0001 Now the interesting thing is that in feature after feature the Ford car duplicates each of these fine cars, and for less than half the fine car price! Look under the hood of the most . expensive cars and what do you find? A V-8 Engine! Well, the Ford car has a V-8, too. In fact, it has had a V-8 since 1932, and since that time Ford has built more V-8’s — by millions — than all other manufacturers combined. And there’s no other builder in Ford’s price range that’s seen fit to offer one yet! But the engine, as fine as it is, is J only one of many things that make a fine car fine. i » i. t Automatic shifting, for example. All the fine cars offer it in one form or another because it’s one of the things that make a fine car fine. But if you’ve never driven a Ford with Fordomatic you’ve missed one of the finer things of life. This amazing transmission not only does away with. clutching and shifting forever— it gives you exactly the amount of power you want, when you want it —automatically. Fine car power steering, too. The big, heavy costly cars offer it for the same reason they offer power brakes. It’s a man-sized job for a 120 pound woman to handle a car weighing two tons or more without it—especially when parking. Our “Master-Guide” has two distinct benefits. .First, it gives a hydraulic power assist right down at the wheels and just enough to take out the work. You don’t relinquish one particle of control—rather your control is more complete and far easier, Second, being hydraulic, "MasterGuide** power steering absorbs those fatiguing steering wheel tremors caused by ruts and roads in bad repair. And you dont pay a fine car price for “Master-Guide.” But there is another fine car feature—the Ford ride. Books have been written on the subject of riding quality in an automobile, but the payoff comes on the pavement*—or lack of it! Many people associate a comfortable ride with excess weight, but it’s not weight alone that makes for comfort. IFit were, those big fiveton trucks which you see every day •, -. . ■ , ■ } ;/ - , •• “ ' •, ?: * < 1 '• ~ , 1 ’*'* ' ' would be the most comfortable vehicles on the road. Without being technical we can tell you that what's been done with the suspension and springing system gives the Ford a softer ride, a smoother ride than many cars which tip the scales at better than an added half ton. y What about room? Here's an interesting point. If you’ve felt that only a costly car offered enough room, you just ought to sit down in a Ford even if you’re out-size and six feet four! The so-called big car is bigger on the outside, but unless you buy a limousine with those little jump seats, it’s not one passenger bigger inside. Visibility is another fine car Ford feature. We say Ford cars offer “fullcircle” visibility'because they all have huge, curved one-piece windshields and a huge rear window to match ... plus side windows that mean every passenger gets room with a view! How beautiful is a Ford? A great English poet, John Keats, once wrote “Beauty is Truth, Truth Beauty”— well, he could have been writing about our car for its beauty comes from honest, clean lines in every dimension. In fact, we think most people agree—even our competitors —that the appearance of a Ford Car leaves very* little to be desired. It is “at home” wherever it goes and it goes everywhere. But what about Ford quality? Does it too match the fine car? Is the sheet metal of the body panels as thick? Is the finish as good? How about the trim and things like that? Well, as far as we can determine, the sheet metal is identical in thickness in practically all instances. As to finish ~r we believe Ford’s baked-on enamel has no equal in any car. Ford upholstery fabrics and trim are less costly, but they’re less delicate, too, mid if anything, more durable. How then is it possible to give you this fine car at half the fine car price? Part of the answer lies,in Ford manufacturing skills and knowledge as evidenced by the V-8 engine. Part of it comes from the ever increasing numbers of cars Ford produces and the economies they make possible. And, part of it comes from Ford s willingness to give greater values than might be expected in cars selling in Ford’s price range. And that’s the Ford idea. ✓ ' FORD Worth more when you buytl.T* Worth more when you sell it / J MERRILL MOTOR COMPANY •to •IfM • WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA ■ DIAL 2921 V“ ** L V
