John Donne, noted English poet and philosopher then added that which is now more familiar to us: ". . . and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for'thee.” Church bells “will toll in the major cities and hamlets of the" nation tomorrow, Friday, ; April 1st, to signal the opening of the 1955 Cancer Crusade. H. B. Winfrey, county chairman, has announced tomorrow as the day when Rappahannock citizens will begin their campaign to raise money for the American’s Cancer Society three-pronged attack on cancer through research, education and service to cancer patients. In Virginia, where cancer took the lives of 3,723 persons in 1954, the Crusade will be led by Brig. Gen. Frank Camm, USA, retired, of Amherst County. Cancer Control Month has been proclaimed in the state by Governor Thomas B, Stanley. In his proclamation, the governor calls attention to estimates which indicate that 1200 persons in Virginia were saved from death by cancer in 1954. “The American Cancer Society reports that twice this number could be saved with ■V present knowledge in cases where ' — diagnosts+is early and treatment tS *’ • prompt." I. . «l The President of the United States has proclaimed April as a month for a special effort to con; quer cancer, the enemy of man. “I urge our citizens to support the American Cancer Society and to take advantage of this opportunity to learn as much as possible about this enemy within our midstcancer.” | ..... i The goal for the Virginia Division during the April Crusade is nearly $40,000 more than last year. Each dollar received is channeled into the society’s three phases of activity: education of the public to the danger signals of cancer and the need for regular physical check ups; research into the Ckuse and cure of cancer; and service to! cancer patients. 1 ! Ernest Smoot Dies; Fire Destroys Home > Ernest Smoot, 79, lost his life when fire, of undetermined origin, consumed his home near Washington, Tuesday night, -around 9:3°- . i . ■ - \ The fire, discovered by the family of Addie Foster, was reported to the Washington Volunteer Firej Department. It had gained so much headway that when the Firemen arrived on the scene, the floor,: ceiling and sections of the walls had burned through. When told by bystanders of the . room that Mr. Smoot would most likely have been in, the firemen consentrated on that section. The body was found, on its back, in the fireplace. The emphasis was then directed to other parts of the house and to the surrounding grounds. Although there was high wind it was in the direction of a swamp, near the house, and blew away from the mountain. The fire trucks remained until after 12 o’clock. Under order of J. P. Snead, County Coroner and Willian# F. Moffett, Commonwealth Attorney, the body was taken to 'Richmond by Sheriff J. W. Critzer for an autopsy to determine the cause of dfcath. ' ' ». | Polio Vaccine Plans• Discussed By Allman In Parents’ Meeting A meeting, .attended by the County Health Director, Public Health Nurse, Parents and Teachers, was held in the Rappahannock County High School on Monday night to discuss the proposed poliomyelitis program in this county. The following comments were made by Dr. Allman in- answer to 4' questions by the group. A final report is expected around the first of April as to the success of this vaccine; however, plans are being made by the Health Department and the National Foundation for Infantile paralysis so that as soon as this vaccine is licensed, the clinics can begin. It is hoped this vaccine can be given before the polio “season” starts. This vaccintf is to be available to all 1st and 2nd grade children in the United States, Hawaii and Alaska. This is not an experiment but an attempt to erradicate poliomyelitis in this country. This group was selected as being the most succeptible age for contracting poliomyelitis and at this time there is not enough serum to be available to everyone; however, it is hoped that within a year it will be available to private prysidans. --The vaccine is not considered harmful or dangerous. There is is minute amount of penicillin in the vaccine to prevent bacterial growth but there has been no record of any child reacting to the vaccine or penicillin. _ The National Foundation for Infantile paralysis furnishes ‘the vaccine without cost and local doctors are conducting the clinics free of charge. It has not been determined yet how long die vaccine affords immunity as it has not been used long enough to tell. It is felt, however, that it will possibly render some degree of immunity for one’s lifetime. Some parents seemea to ieei u»i by being asked to sign consent slips that there was considerable risk involved in receiving the vaccine. As previously stated, we have no reason to think there is any risk whatsoever involved in giving this vaccine or no attempt would he made to give it to so many children. Some children may get a slight redness around the area of the shot, but what is this compared to poliomyelitis? The consent slips are issued so that the doctors will know' what parents want their children immunized as no doctor would give any type of drug or shot, except in an emergency, without parental consent. \ The Health Director pointed out the success of the program depended on the understanding and support of all groups in the community and that it is a community responsibility to assist in the eradication of the devastating and dehibilitating disease of poliomyelitis. He urged anyone with questions about the vaccine program to contact the local health department or discuss it with their family doctor.

S. of Charlottesville will be the guest preacher. —The Rev. H. G. Th4ch A S Cf Release | , Keep your wool sales slips. That was the warning to wool growers from ASC Chairman Barksdale, if they want to receive payments under the incentive program for the wool marketing year beginning April 1, 1955. Wool sold before April 1 will noit qualify under the program, nor is wool shorn prior to January 1, 1955 eligible for payments under the program. J Mr. Barksdale explained that, applications for payment under the new program will be made j to county Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation offices. Grower* will be required to present sales slips and other evidences indicating the name of the producer and the buyer, date of sale and delivery, and amount of sale. This information will be needed to support the grower’s claim for payment. For thu reason it is highly important that all such documents be cafehilly preserved by the producer. The program, he explains, results from the National Wool Apt. of 1954 to stimulate wool production in the United States. As authorized by this law the Secretary of Agriculture announced last fall an incentive price of 62 cents per pound for shorn wool, grease basis for the 1955 marketing year. Payments will be made to wool growers if the national average market price for wool for the marketing year beginning April 1, ,1955 falls below the incentive, level. i j . : The Department of Agriculture also announced earlier this year a similar program for payments for wool on lambs sold for slaughter which would be a flat rate per hundred weight of live animals. The purpose of this program would be to guard against unusual shearing of animals prior to sale , for slaughter. j jj The rate of payment to each grower is a uniform percentage needed to bring the average price all growers receive for their wool ^ up to the incentive prices level. This means that the more the individual grower gets for hit wool the greater will be his total, return. Since the incentive payment determination cannot be made until the 1955 clip has been marketed,, payments to growers cannot be expected before the summer of 1956. H. B.

Ill..- ■ I ■ ■ ■■ — . ■ # Forestry and Rappahannock There are 112,000 acres (1950 Census) in farms in Rappahannock County of which about 30,000 acres are in trees. Income from forest products was around $12,470 (1953-1954) which is only 0.7% of 'our total, farm income. Thinkof it; better.than one fourth of our land in farms yielding less than l% of our farm income 1 Farmers have come a long way in past ten years when it comes to keeping down fires. I can recall my most vivid impression of Rappahannock during my ‘first spring' here back, in ’46 was seeing the horizon lined at night with brush and broom sedge fires. Thank God such a sight is most rare today. Yes, the farmer, the Forestry Service, those of us in the agricultural educational field, and especially Smokey Bear have come a long, long way. Let’s continue to make progress even at a faster rate. What can we do ? What can you do? A lot more than any of us realize once we feel the desire from within and follow up with just a little bit of do. We used to move about 3 million feet of timber fcr year. NoW Farm Forester, Bill Vernam says it is about one million feet—that is in mature trees that have been marked by the Forestry Service. Actually Bill hasn’t been in these parts so very long so'it could well be that we used to market three or four times that much. Lucio-KHby says let’s stop timber scavengers. Let’s stop the fellows who cut indiscriminantly. Let’s stop him by building up the desire of the land owner himself not to take all—even the young immature trees. Let’s get people to start thinking about tree plantings before garden planting time, after the state forestry nursery has sold out. Let’s start planting in November—let’s start ordering trees now. Order blanks are available through Raymond Johnson and at this office. W. U. Campbell says let s nave a tree planting demonstration of at least one acre along the highway on land that is not well suited to pasture much less crops. A. B. Lyon, Extension Forester of V. P. I., says he can get us trees without cost for such a demonstration and I’m sure the older 4-H' boys, Vo-Ag. students as well as Boys Scouts will lend a helping hand. In one. Virginia county, farmers are paying one organized group of boys lc per tree for planting—this group is planting 50,000 trees. Leaving a seed tree is another good way of getting desirable sped on the land instead of weed trees of no potential value.. What about this business of grazing wood lands. Look at an area of grazed woods and study it a while. You’ll find; no young trees coming on, many trees with dead limbs in the top, exposed roots, bark skinned off tree trunks and compacted soil that can’t take up much water. Talk about water conservation.. trees, fenced trees are a natural. Costs? Bub Gore says A. S. C. will help the fanner with 80% of the fencing to protect woods from grazing; allow 80% of the purchasing and planting costs, and 50% of the costs in improving an existing stand of timber. 1955Rappahannock Plantings Dropped 50% Last year Rappahannock farmers planted 37,000 trees, this year about 15,000. Mt. Vemon Stock Farm and L. J. Kilby being among the bigger planters. While our 1954 planting was ahead of Culpeper, Green, Page, and Warren, Orange county planted 144,000 (1,000 per acre) and Albemarle is really going to town, Confine Fuel Wood Cuttings What about cutting all weed trees such as gums, maples, sycamore, hickory, etc. on an acre of land when you go out to get fuel wood rather than wandering all over the woods to cuf*the straightesf, easiest spliting tree to be' found. Nine times out of ten you’ll be robbing your self of the best growers, a desirable kind of tree of greatest potential income. Replant this acre with a desirable tree that will make you money or at least be a monument far prettier and more valuable to your off spring than a block of granite after you’re departed .from this world. Harsh words and thoughts but true nevertheless. And there’s the report from A. B. Lyon of 140 acres yielding 881,000 bd. feet timber (mature trees only) which was sold recently for the top bid of $33,999.00 or about $38.00 per thousand on the stump. Keep good soil in crops and pasture, yes, but /would take a lot of fertilizer, a lot of cultivation, a lot of work to get 140 acres of some of our land that is in pasture, (or should I say exercise lots) or on which we may be trying to grow corn to bring in this kind of cash w’hen a timber crop did do it. A crop that requires no fertilizer, no cultivation and very little sweat. VPI Studies Effect Of Hormone Implant On Growth of Lambs The effects of implants of pellets containing estrone (female sex hormone) on growth rates and carcass quality of suckling lambs on grass will be studied this summer at VPI Agricultural Experiment Station. ■ The use of similar hormone pellets in weaned lambs fed in the dry lot has been found by several experiment stations in the Midwest to increase the rate and efficiency of gain, but to distinctly lower quality of the carcasses. Very little information is available on the effects of such treatment on suckling lambs. The present VPI test is designed ■ to measure the value of two kinds of hormone' pellets, implanted at 35 pounds aqd at 50 pounds, on the growth rates, carcass quality, and profits from spring lambs. Currently, the researchers, say there is not enough information available to nuke recommendation of the use of the implants by Virginia sheepmen. f The tests will be Conducted by W. S. Wilkinson, j.' S. Copenhaver, and R. C Carter. CHURCH SERVICES Services will be held at the Beech Spring Baptist Church Sunday, April 3 at 2 pjn. Rev. E. Wayne Thompson will bring the message. Everyone invited.

Dr. Hubert Quaintance Still Going Strong After 55 Years As A Practicing Physician i , Nine thousand, . four hundred and thirty-one babies have, been spanked into life by Dr. Rubert Quaintance during hiis. 55 years as a practicing physician. “My busiest day,'* the Slate Mills doctor irecalls, “was a fourth of July when I delivered* 5 babies.” .Here in a moment we see the quantity of service performed by the 78-year-old “Dr. Rubert” during his lifetime. But there is something; else that testifies to jthe quality of this work:. Years agoj in a mining town in West Virginia, it gave him the nick-name of “Great Physician.” In Slate Mills of Rappahannock it has made some tall ' him ‘kind’, others !a good mart.’ Everywhere he has lived this quality has made him loved. Rappahannock first came to know “Dr. Rubert", some 10 years go when at the death of Shis :ather and brother, the doctor jind is wife,(a nurse) decided to leave prosperous hospital in West Virginia and retire to the Doctor’s boyhood .home. Here they would do all things they had been too busy to do in the hectic but happy jdays as a student, a doctor and as ja hospital superintendent - travel, jread, work with flowers and just jplain loaf. | Not many nights had passed; bejfore .people began to knock onj the jdoor of the white frame house, jasiking that the doctfir please look lat their festering arm or take I the temperature of a feverish child, ■ And quickly and surely, the idea jof retirement, if it had ever really germinated, lost ground as Dr. Quaintance saw the need around him. Today he talks regularly with Dr. Hubert Quaiintancc’s home—A house that has watched maiiy a generation of Quamtances go out to serve as doctors._j‘ NOTICE TO THE FARMERS THE VIRGINIA LIVESTOCK ORDER BUYING YARD will be in operation daily, Monday thru Friday from 7 A,M. until 2 P.M.. Opening Date... Tuesday, April 12,1955 When your livestock is weighed, it will be paid for w;ith NO commission and insurance charged. ' ■ j The market report on livestock will be available each day. Any information concerning the market will be given you by calling Culpeper 8364. You will have ^he privilege of selling your livestock either at The Culpeper Livestock Market, Inc. at public auction each Tuesday or thru The Virginia Live stock Order Buying Yard daily. Looking forwar4 to the 12th of April? A. W, MILLS, seeing all of you on Culpeper, Vcl patients in his 3-room office in the left hand corner of his yard. Dr. Quairitance is of Rappahannock, born in the family home in 1876, the son of Dr. Oscar Ringold Quaintance, of Rappahannock, and Lilia Mallory Quaintance, formerly of Hanover County. He attended school at the Slate Mills Public School and following graduation Entered William and Mary College. Today he is recognized as their oldest living graduate.* Following graduation, the doctor taught school for 2 years, 1 at Slate Mills, another at Peola Mills. i .He entered the University College of Medicine in Richmond, graduating in 1901. One year of ^ internship was spent at the Retreat For The Sick. Then for 35 years he was associated with the Lundale Hospital in the mining town of Logan, West Virginia, ten of these years, 1817-1927, as Superintendent Chief Surgeon. While making his home in West Virginia, he was president-director of the Logan Co. Bank, Man. Ice and Supply Company and a director of the Logan Co. Coal Corp. While in Huntinston looking • for a nurse for his hospital, Dr. Quaintance made the .acceptance of Bessie Sue Ramsey, product of Shenandoah College in Dayton and the University of Virginia Nursing School. They were married in Febjruary 28, 1921/Two sons were born to the couple. Rube rt Wilson, Jr. is now a practicing physician in! Culpeper where he, his wife and his two children make their home. Barton Breston, a lawyer, lives with his wife and family (2 children) in Fredericksburg. Dr. Quaintance is a member of A.F. and A.M., A.A. O.N.M.S., having entered the lodge in Sperryville. j Dr. Quaintance and his wife, a friendly, energetic personality, live quietly in their home high on a hill in Slate Mills. Mrs. Quaintance keeps house and spends every bit of unoccupied time planting and cultivating her flowers. Each year, Dr. Quaintance moves the fence of the yard back, giving her more border to fill with the ever increasing varieties, Mr. Quaintance, a tall heavily built gentleman, with gray hair, speaks firmly with a twinkle of a smile in his voice hinting of a keen sense of humor, and a depth of understanding. He has the look of a happy man. Though he’s never quite had time, since retirement, for that trip to Florida, he has always found time for that sick patient. Perhaps, this is his secret.

Thomas B, Reid On Purdue Honor Roll Thomas B.

To attain this rating, die student must make an average of “5” or better for all work carried during the semester. Mr. Reid, a sophomore in mechanical engineering, is a graduate of Washington High School, and previous to entering, Purdue, attended the University of North Carolina. Homemaker«* Hems Another innovation in the world of hosieiy is noted by Miss L Byrd Johnson, clothing specialist at VPI. The new stretchable hose, which have both advantages and disadvantages, are made of a type of nylon yarn marketed under such trade names as “Helenca,” “Chardolon,” and “Burmil,” and others. The yam is made of many fine filaments, which when relaxed become contracted and coiled. This special yam allows tremendous stretch. Some advantages of this yam are better fit, more comfort,, and longer wear, provided certain precautions are taken. A disadvantage, for which manufacturers have not yet found a remedy, is “piling” or roughing up when the surface of the hose comes in contact with rough skirt hems, harsh lace on slips, or the rough lining of overshoes or boots. Misit Johnson says if you want to experiment with the hose be prepared to pay higher prices and check the hems of your skirts and ; slips and the lining of your boots'' or overshoes for harsh or rough places.
