C. the other day and while there talked, with our congressman, Burr P. Harrison. Mr. Harrison hasi just returned from a trip to. Cuba as a member of a Congressional Committee. While in Cuba, Mr, Harrison and the Congressman from Arkansas were referred to in the Cuban preys as “Yankee Congressmen”—a new title for our ‘Southern gentlemen.’ While in Cuba Mr. Harrison talked with officials of the Cuban Government on a great variety of ' subjects. A particular interest, of course, was the import-export relationship between Cuba and the United States. In some instances, the Government there, seemed* to ''have struck on uniqu$j*Jlutions to common problems, but in other phases there appeared to be startl/ ing inequalities. The livestock duty is set" “per head’^ and *ibt “per value.” For example there is the same duty imposed on /i 1500 pound horse or steer as on a few ounce baby chick. Thus the duty to the cattle dealer would be ineonsequential whereas to the poultry dealer, it would prove disastrous. This matter, our Representative has taken up with the State Department. i Mr; Harrison, like all true Virginia representatives, found himself inquiring into the apple import situation. He talked at length 5* with the largest apple buyer in' Cuba. The buyer told Mr. Harrison that “Yes, of course he bought Virginia apples. Last year, he brought approximately 40,000 carloads” ... and about how many other apples from the U.S. “Oh, around 600,000 car loads. \ This comment bothers us because, it repeats a sentiment heard too often as of Tate. We right here in the middle of apple country can take a bite of a locally grown apple and then wonder why anybody would want any better. They’re A Number 1. And ycy they often do not reflect quality in market demand, o o\ o o For this week’s free subs tion be the first to answer coi ly the following question what people is this phrase familiar ‘Live Free or Dj why the familiarity?” ost and MISS DEFERS FET%D > « r ON 16th BIRTHDM # Miss Margaret Ann Devers celebrated her sixteenth birthday * i with a party on Friday evening ' Arranged at the Hillcrest Club which was beautifully decorated for the occasion.

A force of enumerators will start visiting every farm in the area, according to Field Supervisor Cameron H. Belland of Arlington, Va. ! , Farm census questionaires have been mailed to all farm operators The enumerators will visit. all local farms to collect the questionnaires and, if necessary, assist the farmer in filling out the report form. The' 1954 Census of Agriculture is the 16th in a series of nationwide farm enumerators, the first of which was conducted in jjS40. The Census of Agriculture is taken at five-year intervals to provide up to date statistical information about more than; five million farms which supply food and raw materials for manufacture of goods used by the people of the United States,, now numbering about 162.5 million. The current census will yield information on the number and size of farms, acreage and harvest of crops, livestock production and inventories, selected farm facilities and equipment and selected farm expendi lures. > Field Supervisors Belland emphasized that ' all information about individuals and their, farm operations furnished to the'Census Bureau is held jn absolute con* fidence tinder Federal law. It Is used only to provide summary figures such as totals, averages, and percentages. The information on an individual report cannot be _ furnished to any one other than sworn Cehsus employees and < thus cannot be used for investigation, taxation or regulation.

Key In 4-H’ers Banquet Miss Betty Rutherford was presented an All Star Key award at recognition banquet held for Northern Virginia District at the Mimslyn Hotel, Wednesday night. The banquet was in honor of the 4-H club members wIiq were initiated into Virginia Chapter of All Stars this year and was given by sponsor of awards program Cities Service Oil Company (Pa.) All stars selected before 1954 may secure the key if they are still active by contacting the extension office. “All Stars” is an honorary organization composed of 4-H boys and girls outstanding in leadership, community activities and project work. Their motto is “service.” All Stars and parents attending from Rappahannock were: Lelia Gentry, Mrs. Barbara Gentry, - Mrs. Harry Rutherford, Miss* Betty Lou Rutherford, Miss Betty Blagg and E. M. Jones. 1 f # Dad,' standing there in front of that sixteen pound bird, is not a railroad president <tr a banker; he is a skilled workman in a factory and mighty proud of his job.

Jack, sitting next to Grandma, is home from the state university. ... We would be the last to say that there is no want or poverty in the United States.

Nelson Atkins, Jr. Of Flint Hill, 4-H’er Of The Month It is with sincere pride that we present Nelson Atkins/ Jr., of Flint Hill as 4-H’er of the month. “Junior,” as he is known by in his community, is actually a senior when it comes to 4-H activities as he was one of-our first members to* enroll back in 1946, when 4-H was reactivated here in Rappahannock. This fall Junior completed his eight years of 4-H work during which time he conducted an even dozen projects, all but one being meat animal. In 1947 he completed two projects, market hog and brood sow. Junior’s brood sow project covered three years with the famed registered Poland China, “Brass Lady” whose name became legend among the “Sears Roebuck Foundation” gilts. *If memory serves me correctly Brass Lady had twenty-odd off springs that Junior sold as breeders which improved swine herds all over ■ Rappahannock County. In 1950 Junior broadened his project work in the poultry field and in 1952 started a sheep project. He has made money with each project with but one exception that being the first few months with sheep when his flock consisted entirely of lambs from which there naturally were no lambs by fall when record books hre turned in. His net 4-H earnings have been $658.90 plus $21 in cash awards. Junior has com■ pleted in county and area shows with success and in addition has been a membef of’the Rappahannock 4-H Livestock Judging Team.

To r launch this year’s sale of Christmas Seals, Governor Thomas B. Stanley stated on a Statewide program presented by local tuberculosis associations throughout -Virginia: “As long as I can remember, Christmas Seals have been a part of Christmas for me and my family, but this year the Sale has a new and greater significance. . . Tuberculosis is one of the principal health problems, yet I believe sincerely that we now have within our grasp the means for removing this hazard from our midst. While we take pride in the tremendous strides we have made against the disease, we should all realize this gives us no room for complacency. Hundreds of Virginians still die each year".". . TB frequently means broken homes, poverty and heartache. Adding that beginning this week his personal mail would bear Christmas Seals, Governor Stanley continued, “Each of us has an opportunity afforded by the Virginia Tuberculosis Association and our local associations throughout Virginia to do something about TB ... I hereby officially endorse the sale of Christmas Seals in Virginia and urge each of you to buy them early, buy them generously, and use them confidently, knowing that you are doing your part.” Rappahannock Chairmen ^ For TB Drive Rappahannock District Chair— 7 men are: Hawthorne, Mrs. Johnc Davis; Hampton, Mrs. George V Davis; Jackson, Mrs. Floyd Hitt; Piedmont, Mrs. Jack Weaver; Stonewall, Miss Ruby Pullen; Wakefield, Mrs. G.

It follows: At the beginning of time, Twashtri—the Vulcan of Hindu mythology—created the world. But when he wished to create woman, he found that he had employed all his materials in the creation of man. There did not remain one solid element. Then Twashtri, preplexed, fell into a profound meditation from which he aroused himself and proceeded as follows: He took the roundness of the moon, the undulations of the serpent, the entwinement of clinging plants, the trembling of grass, the slenderness of the rose-vine and the velvet of the flower, the ligl ness of the leaf and the the fawn, the gaiety of rays and tears of t^ constancy of the wifijF and the wind and the timidity of the hare, the vanity of the peacock and the softness of the down on the throat of the swallow, the hardness of the diamond, the sweet flavor of honey and the cruelty of the tiger, the warmth of fire, the chill of snow, the chatter of the jay and the cooing of the turtle dove. He combined all these and formed a woman. Then he made a present of her to man. Eight days later the man came to Twashtri and said: “My Lord, the creatureyou gave me poisons my existence. She chatters without rest, she takes up all my time, she laments for nothing at all, and is always ill; take^her back.” And Twashtri took the woman back. But eight days later the man came again to the god and said: “My Lord, my life is very solitary since I returned this creature. I remember she danced before me, singing. I recall how she glanced at me from the corner of her eye,, how she played with me, clung to me. Give her back to me,” and Twashtri returned the woman to him. Three days only passed and Twashtri saw the man coming to him again. “My Lord,” said he, “I do not understand exactly how it is, but I am sure that the woman causes ^ne more annoyance than pleasure. I beg you to relieve me of her.” But Twashtri cried: “Go your way and do the best you can.” And the man cried: “I cannot live with her!” “Neither can you live Sfeven £&ma %/ettM Your doctor adds at least seven years of study to his high school education. Then he spends one or more yearsin a hospital with little or no compensation. Is it not reasonable to believe that he is better qualified to advise you in matters of health than are your well-meaning friends who have not had this education and experience? When you do not feel well, there are two safe things to t do. First, consult your physician. Then bring his pro- v scripscr.s to us for compounding. without her!” replied Twashtri. And the man went away sorrowful, murmuring: “Woe is me, I can neither live with nor without her.” —Publisher and Printer Trial Justice Cases _The Commonwealth versus Ro- _ bert Lewis Thomas ; charged with having no operator’s license; fined $5 and costs.

The new program is designed to speed adoption of Plan A, the test and-slaughter plus calf vaccina tion method of fighting bruceollosis. It provides — 1. Free vaccination by participating veterinarians for any calf, anywhere in Virginia 2. Free testing and retesting of herds signed under Plan A or herds under Plan B which agree to enter Plan A; * 3. Indemnity payments at the rate of one-third the difference between the appraisal and the salvage price for reacting animals under Plan A. The payments are not to exceed $25 for a grade animal or $50 for a registered purebred. This program went into effect November 1. The United States Department of Agriculture will pay participating veterinarians 50 cents per head for the calf vaccinations. Virginia will continue to furnish Brucella Strain 19 vaccine to all veterinarians for calf vaccination without cost. The U. S. D. A. will pay approved veterinarians 50 cents a head for herd testing and retesting. Herds which have been certified as free from brucellosis after three consecutive clean tests will not be eligible for free testing. The free testing will be discontinued for infected herds after three consecutive clean tests. __ _ All reactors found in PlanA herds subsequent to November 1 are subsequent to indemnity. Herds operating under Plan A do not need to sign up again. Herds now operating under Plan B may have all reactors now in their herd appraised and sign Plan A at the same time. A herd test must follow immediately and continue at 30 to 60-day intervals as provided under Plan A. Reacting animals under Plan A will be tagged, branded and appraised by State or Federal veterinarians in accordance with laboratory reports of brucellosis tests. Herds of less than 5 animals may participate in the new brucellosis program without signing up under one of the plans. Indemnity payments will not be allowed unless the whole herd is being tested, unless the premises occupied by infected cattle have been properly cleaned and disinfected reactors were branded, tagged and appraised prior, to slaughter. In addition, there will be no in demnity payments if reactors were fedult vaccinated (over 8 months of age) or for animals officially calf vaccinated (4 to 8 months) -until these animals are 30 months of age or over. In both of these cases, it is impossible to tell if a reaction to the brucellosis test is caused by the vaccination or by the disease. WELL DRILLING L. & S.
