i WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY CORNING, FEBRUARY 3; 1955 Price 32.00 PER YEAR VOLUME 6—] kWXXMt Beginning in January of each year, there are a series of drives for worthy causes. These causes each designate a month for their cam* paign< but as often occurs, one will overlap and thus necessitate the . overlapping of succeeding drives. Of course, it’s hard to put a clear cut end to a drive when persona tarry in sending in contribution and thus the county falls far 6d> low the quota. However, this overlapping puts a damper on the fallowing drives and causes them either to cut short their month or overlap into another cause’s alloted month for its drive. Then too, come another year, the individual pays little attention to a stated deadline as he fully expects the deadline to be changed to a later ’ ddte. o o ° O \ ; j In how many counties of Virginia has, iron been discovered?

February Fifteenth Deadline For Hay, Grain Applications Applications for assistance under the drought emergency hay and feed grain programs will not be accepted from farmers and ranchers after’midnight February 15, 1955, the U. S. Department of Agriculture announced today. These applications should be in by noon of February 15th, in order that they may be considered by the county committee. * Kenneth L>. Scott, director, USDA’s Agricultural Credit Services, said announcement of a dead line for acceptance of new applies* tions is in accord with the USDA’a policy of bringing drought emergency feed programs to an end as soon as Spring pasture and. forage become available. He said, however, that if acute drought conditions continue .in any area, it is contemplated that State Drought Committees will request continued' assistance. Director Scott' also reminded that while the railroad industry’s contribution to the drought dis- . aster program—a 50 percent reduction in the rate for handling hay into designated areas—will expire February 15, the Government’s part in the program (half the actual cost of transporting hay up-to $1Q per ton) will continue on all deliveries to eligible fanners and ranchers until midnight March 31, 1955. (USDA hay program contracts with State ex* pire on that date). Under the emergency feed grain * program, farmers or ranchers in designated drought counties make application through local Farmers Home Administration county com* mittees for this special assistance.. If they are eligible under provisions of the program, they are given fanner’s purchase orders covering the approved amount of grain: The purchase orders are good for $1 per hundredweight bn the amount of grain involved, and may be issued for needed supple- v mental supplies, for a period of up to 60 days.

It la almost always preceded by a streptococcal Infection, usually of the throat. Today, thanks to research, advances by medltaj science; rheumatic fever hag taken Its place among the preventable diseases. Initial attacks of rheumatic fever can be prevented by knocking out the'“strep" Infection with antibiotics like penicillin, while moat recurrent attacks—Increasing the danger of heart damage— . i. which la cultured in lab. -can he prevented by consistent and tong-term use of penicillin or sulphonamlde drugs. ^ At toast three percent of untreated "strep” Infections, according to the American Heart Association's Council on Rheumatic Fever and Congenital Heart Disease, are followed by rheumatic fever. Those who have bad an attack are particularly susceptible to a recurrence, with greatly Increased liability to serious heart damage. At the drat sign of a possible "strep" infection, parents should have their children see a physician, who will. determine the nature of the Infection, and. If ,.. “Strep" patient eeee doctor. tt Is “strep", will take soluble steps ^to safeguard the child against rheumatic fever by promptly treating the Infection with an antibiotic drug. . , In some localities, school die* i tricts conduct preventive pro*: grams.

Heart Drive Names ‘ Research Expansion As Main Objective ' With thebroad expansion of its f research program as its leading objective, the American Heart Association and the Heart Associations in Virginia this week launches! the month-long 1955 Heart Fund campaign under the chair; manship of' General Mark W. Clark, former U. S. jCommanderin-Chief in the Far East. In Rappahannock County, the Heart Fund is Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Paul MiHef and Mrs. Bruce Bowie. The Heart’ Fund is the annual public appeal through whi(:h the Heart program is made ^possible. • ( The drive, seventh since the American Heart Association became a national 'voluntary health organization in 1948, is being Conducted in more than 3,000 communities under the guidance of 56 affiliates and 350 chapters. “Help Your Heart Fund, Help Your Heart” is the slogan of the 1955 campaign. ' ‘ In opening Heart Fund Month, General Clark pointed out that the heart diseases account for nearly 800.000 deaths in the , United ^States each year—more than all other causes combined. Some 10,000,000 Americans, including 500.000 children, suffer from tome tort of heart pr blood vessel disease he s?id. “Tq expand our vital research activities in the interests of this great army of people, and in the interests of the millions who may suffer diseases of the heart and hlodd vessels in future years, we hope to exceed by far the $11,330,195jContributed to the Heart Fund m 1954,” General Clark said. Seventy-five percent of all funds raised throughout the 'February drive will remain in Virginia to carry pn the research, educational and Community programs of local Heart Associations. Of the amount forwarded to the national headquarters of the American Heart Association, the greater portion is earmarked for the support of the research program, General Clark pointed out. The Heart Fund Drive has the endorsement of the clergy and labor leaders, and of government officials who have arranged for collections among personnel in governmental agencies and on military posts. * Arrangements have been made for public contributions to be sent by addressing them to "Heart,” care of local post office. The drive will also be Supported by top stars in the entertainment world .with radio, television and motion picture programs throughout February. Lucille Ball and Desi Amaz are serving as National Co-Chairmen of Heart Fund Volunteers. Jackie Gleason, named "America’s Heart Ambassador,” will cooperate with Jerry Marshall of radio station WNEW - New York, Chairman of the National Disc Jockey Committee for the Heart Fund drive, in polling more than 3,000 disc jockeys na. tionally to determine the recording artists who will reign as 1955 "King and Queen of Hearts.” Kirk Douglas and a tape recording of his heartbeat are co-starred in a two-and-a-half' minute Heart Fund film which will be shown in theaters and on television stations throughout the country.-®’ Trial Justice Cases The Commonwealth vs. Pete A., Atkins; charged with unauthoriz^r ed use of automobile; found guilty and the case was sent to the grand jury.

Landowners, Invest Valuable Property The timberland owners in this state are very fortunate. They own a resource that, under proper management, can be made to produce a perpetual income. Unlike many of^our other resources, such as coal and oil, our timber is living and growing and is able to replace itself. The landowners whose timber has been clear-cut, or who have idle or abandoned land which is not being used are somewhat less fortunate. These people are paying taxes, and possibly interest, on land from which they are getting no return. However, this land can be put on a paying basis by planting forest trees seedlings on it. These seedlings are of great value as an investment. They will not only increase the value of the land, but they should also yield St least a 3% return on the investment. TJiis year the County A.S.C. Committee for Rappahannock County has- approved payment up to 80% of cost for the tree planting practice. This amount of payment will allow a landowner to set up a sizeable stake in his future for a very small cost. The A. S. C. can give you all the necessary information on i|s program. For information on seedlings and planting sites,, write to D. G. Wilfong, Jr., District Forester, Box 3347, University Station, Charlottesville, Va. Chief Forest Warden To Attend District Meeting On Friday Chief Forest Warden Raymond M.

This is as true in medicine as'in other fields, the sensational results with fulia drugs and; penicillin are examples. Less dramatic, but responsible for saving uncounted lives, are tbebroader public health measures. Sewage disposal, swamp clearance, and water, milk, and food in* spection are but a few of these triumphs. The physician and the pharmacist have always been leaders in the fidd of preventive medicine. This fact led James Brice to observe, "Medicine is the only profession that labors incessantly to destroy the reason for its own existence.” The fight, however, is far from won.

Some farmers are modernizing their operations because they realize narrowing margins of profits in farming make such; necessary. Also farmers are beginning to apply dollar and cents evaluation on many of their enterprises. Thus what could be more timely than the first topic on the program “The Economic Evaluation for Forages in Beef Production.’* • What may be economical on one farm can easily be anything but on another though ’they both; be producing slaughter steers or feeder calves. • At the Middleburg Pasture and Forage Crop Research Center 3500 lbs. of hay and 230 lbs. of beef was produced per acre in the dry year of 1953, The beef represents gains from 165 days of grazing—the hay afforded a fair daily ration for the remaining 200 days of the year—almost enough for a beef sow. This is efficient production from the standpoint of land use and soil conservation (no row crops) but whether or not the operation was economical is another question What is the most economical and efficient pasture and forage program for your farm ? Could well be you could reach a more accurate discussion if you’ll take the time to go to. Middleburg on the 16th. “Band Seeding of Forage Crops” is the subject of another timely topic for discussion. Then too during the aftefnoon Dr. Blaser will report on the Beef grazing and related experiments at the Middleburg Station. Soils-topographydimate and the tattle are as much like Rappahannock as you can find anywhere—it’s the sort of research that can and should mean much to the beef industry of rite county, that is if your livestock men have the industry to go see and find lout. There is not much point in your tax dollar being spent if you don’t reap the benefits.

With Expansion Move “The Farm Bureau Insurance Companies are going ‘Nationwide’ in more ways than one,” Mrs. B. M. Miller, local representative, learned in a meeting of Farm ~ Bureau Insurance Company employees, held Wednesday, January 26th, in the National. Theatre in Richmond. - Via a closed-circuit telecast viewed in 21 eastern cities by some 18,000 employees, agents, families and friends of the companies, top officials announced that the three firms intend to: (1) Change the company name, effective September I, 1955, to Nationwide Insurance, and (2) Begin planning immediately for a program of national expan* sion. The Farm Bureau Mutual Automobile Insurance Company thus will be known as the Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company; Farm Bureau Mutual Fire Insurance Company becomes Nationwide Mutual Fire Insurance Company; and Farm Bureau Life becomes Nationwide Life Insurance ('nmnanv. . - ; The companies now operate in only 13 eastern states and the District of Columbia. Even so, the auto company is the fourth largest insurer of cars in the nation. Murray D. Lincoln, president, set the keynote of the program in ; his opening remarks when he said the time had come for the com- , panics to take a “new look” at j themselves. National expansion, he said, presented a tremendous challenge to everyone connected with the companies. “We can effectively meet this challenge, he asserted, “only il wt continue to find out what people’s ? needs are—and then help people meet those needs through our companies.” During the telecast, Executive . Vice President Bowman Doss detailed some of the reasons behind the'decision to expand. The companies’ rapid growth, he said, argued for expansion. He 4 pointed out that in the last 23 years, policies in force had risen from 79,000 to 2,900,000. In the same period, assets jumped from $2,633,000 to about $210,000,000. ' “The companies,” he said, “have developed unique methods of operation which have been highly successful and should work equally as well in other parts of the country.” : ■ ■; He pointed out also that the companies would be able to retain much of the present in-force " business now being lost when policyholders move outside the companies’ present operating ter- > ritrtrv. Howard Hutchinson, vice presi- ■ ' dent in charge of insurance opera-. ; tions, said the order of expansion into other states had been determined by studies conducted by the firms’ market research department and the A. C. Nielsen Campahy, of Chicago. « Once the decision to expand had* been made, a new name became mandatory, Mr. Doss said. There are already Farm Bureau insurance companies in 20 states outside the companies’ territory. Insurance department and post office ■ regulations prohibit the use of highly similar names. Hence, if the companies were to go truly Mna- .s tionwide,” Ts new name was neces- .
