S. Barksdale, Chairman of Rappahannock County ASC Committee, announced today that compliance with acreage allotments will be required no longer in order for farmers to be eligible to participate in the Agricultural Conservation Program. This results from the recent repeal of the Holland Amendment, which made compliance with all acreage allotments a condition for ACP cost-sharing. Farmers must still comply with their allotments to be eligible for CCC loans or other price support and, nuts, mark in the case of tobacco, peacotton and wheat, to avoid eting quota penalties. Marketing quotas are not applicable for corn or for wheat where 15 acres or less is grown. My. Barksdale said that this legislation would benefit mainly the Wfheat growers with less than 15 acres and the corn growers in the commercial counties of Accomack; Isle of Wight, Nansemond, Norfolk, Northhampton, Princess Anne, Southampton, Surry and Sussex, ’who may not be interested in price support on these commodities but who do wish to participate in the Agricultural Conservation Program. ' Wheat fanners, who are interested in CCC loans, and those with allotments of more than 15 acres are still urged to utilize any excess acres by cutting for hay, turning for green manure, or .cutting for green silage before June 1, 1955.. Flint Hill Loses To Stevenson, 4-3 The Flint Hill A. C.’s played the perfect host to Stevenson Sunday. The A. C.’s were defeated 4-3 oi\ a rain drenched field. The star of the game would have been Ellington if he had not pulled the ball so much. He came to bat in the 1st with the bases loaded and unleashed a terrific 400 ft. drive to left field for a ground rule double. Riley, pitching for Flint Hill, went four innings allowing one run for four hits and retired seven men via the strike-out route. McCarty relieved Riley in the 5th with 2 men on. Stevenson was unable to get to McCarty but a couple.of errors scored the runs before rain halted the game. The errors were attributed to some irregularities in the field, (not players). Riley was the losing pitcher. From here it looks like the Flint Hill A. C.’s have come to life in preparation for the game with the Chiefs on Monday the 30th of this month. (Memorial Day). See you at the game. The A. C.’s journey to Middletown this Sunday. They leave with the best wishes of the Flint Hill fans. —John Keyser Memorial Day Game at Flint Hill Tkn Flint Hill Atklotia CWfc and tha Rappakaaaoek Cki«l» will mH an An Flint HOI finld Monday, May 30 (Malarial Day) at llM. ,> Homecoming Services At Woodville Baptist Church, Sunday Homecoming Services will be observed at Woodville Baptist Church this Sunday, May 29, with the Reverend J.

Annual Hunt Ball Held Saturday At Meadowbrook Hall One hundred of the Rappahannock Hunt and their friends lathered it Meadowbrook Hall, die home of Mrs. W. P. Slaughter, Saturday evening for the Hunt Club's Annual Ball. Lovely arrangements of spring flowers, created by members of the Rappahannock Garden Club and Mrs. B. M. Miller, complimented the formal hunt dress, and lent more loveliness to the atmosphere. Chauncy Brown’s orchestra played for the ball. Foundation Today— 2-Story Home Tomorrow Monday evening there was a foundation in the lot next door to Mrs. H. T, Updike on Piedmont Avenue—Tuesday evening there was a 2-story house. The story started Monday around dinner when we saw V. R. (Dutch) Updike standing in the middle of the street, “Looking to see if my house is coming down the road yet.” Thinking this reply to our innocent question rather strange, to say the least, we kept our eyes open, and sure enough, around 5 o’clock Monday evening, a van came rolling down the road with a one-story house as passenger. (Had to saw off a limb ’rounding the corner at D. C. Updike’s). Since the ground was wet with the recent rains, no work could be done that evening. Little could have been done anyway what with the spectators climbing on the tongue of the truck to look into the kitchen. Early Tuesday the second story began to take shape and in the evening the house was hoisted into the air, and as the van moved slowly from under it settled on die foundation. By Wednesday night the green roof was on the new house. The Updikes plan to -paint the frame house, either pale green or white. They will also add a back porch. According to their, plans they will move into their home before the middle of June.

But in a more particular sense, this Day is one on which we remember the fallen who wore the two colors now equally cherished by all Americans: the Union Blue and the legendary Confederate Gray. / The Civil Was was our national epic. It remains our American Iliad. It divided the country in blood . and then united it forever. Possibly it was the bne war that was worth its great and terrible cost in anguish and suffering., For in the thunders that shook the continent in the sixties America died—and was born again. Without the Civil War the meaning of America would not be clear. Without its splendor and sacrifice every American would be infinitely poorer. So on this Day we think of the men, North and y. South, who fought at Chickamauga and Cold Harbor, who stood and died in the woods at the Antietam and stormed the Peach Orchard at Gettysburg. We think of them .... and we bow our heads in proud and grateful Remembrance. ■■H III n-BOV ]F\ with th• IRON HORSE ENGINE « - • v It's fttturt fitted tor titter tUrtini. utter mowing tnd depend•bit scrvict.

Home Demonstration Clubs In Rappahannock ”'AMISSV1LLE Airs. Catherine Riley The Amissville Home Demonstration Club was one of the first to be organized in the county. In 1932, Miss Matilda Garner came as our first home demonstration . agent. Some of the charter members were: Mrs. J. M. Rowzie, Mrs. A. G Latham, Mrs. Lest Walter and Mist Louise Anderi son. These were years of depres* a ion and we had demonstrations oh how to prepare main dishes using as many eggs as possible. - Eggs •were selling for 8c a dozen then. We were taught how to dry and can vegetables for winter use. We yeere taught how'to reseat chairs with fiber and splints. » Following Miss Gamer were Mrt/Fulton and Mrs. ThomhilL I remember Mrs. Fulton teaching a class of searing in the Court House, where we cut and sewed dresses for ladies on welfare. (Mrs. Fulton might have been the 1 county nurse as we had one at that •time.)* • Mrs. Thornhill taught us how to do smocking on children’s dresses and other dress finishes. The home demonstration dub Work was discontinued then until 1944. Mrs. Wilkerson was the - first agent after resuming the work in the county. The charter members at this time were: Mrs., Charles Green, Mrs. Less Wal. ter, Mrs. Will Walter, Mrs. Katherine Riley, Mrs. A. C. Latham, Sr., and Mrs. C. A. 'Smith. From 1941 to 1945 we learned how to cook, without sugar using syrup and honey instead. Mrs. -f Wilkersoo, whose husband was serving in the armed forces, left us to be with him in (1945 when he ••returned from o very as. Our next agent was Mias Rum Brum back who came in July 1945. . Miss Bruimback was a, very effident leader and we learned many useful facts under her leadership. One interesting project was chetse making. Miss Brumback married in 1946 and left us to become a housekeeper herself. , Following Miss Brumback we had Miss Rhoten, who came in ianuary .1947 and stayed until larch 1948, at which time she resigned because of poor health.. We had a meeting on wills and deeds while Miss Rhoten was our leader; with Rayner Snead as the guest speaker. ;* Miss Janet Solleberger was our next agent coming into office in June of 1948. I remember we had Christmas center pieces, slip covers • and home made* gifts under Miss Sollenberger’i instruction. Cupid i claimed this agent too, and she left us in May 1951 to become a home maker. t Our present home demonstration leader came then in August of 1951 and has remained longer than 4ny other agent. Some interesting project undertaken by Miss . Fuss have been caning chairs, restyling hats, cooking with herbs and hooking rugs, etched aluminum trays. Even though Miss Fuss has been married and is now Mis. Powers, she plans to con, tinue her work as home demonf strat ion Agent. in Rappahannock County. Some ot the extra acnievements of out club have been as follows: we have given contributions of jnonev to different organizations as March of Dimes and Cancer Campaign, and fire department. We have helped to send girls to 4-H camp. We gave $100 on thr , stove in our Fire Hall kitchen. We have covered 47 chairs in the fire hall auditorium and we gave $10 • to the ladies auxiliary of the Warrenton Hospital which was used for a baby bed pen. We also bought electric lights and set up a Compiurtity Christmas tree in 1954. Our local dub presidents have been: Mrs. A. C. Latham, Sr., Mrs. Clarence Streeter, Mrs. Joe Hitt, Mrs. Will Walter, and Mrs. Luther Stuart. We are proud to mention that the county chairman at present is a member of our club. We hive had picnics and trips to places of historical interest. We can truthfully say we have “found joy in common tasks well dene” which is part of our dub motto. CASTLETON By Mrs.'Lena Woodward and Mrs. Bert Scott The Castleton Home Demonstration Club was organized Oct. 25, f949. This organizational meeting was a Cheese Making demonstration at the home of Miss Emily Mandell. The officers elected were: President, Mrs. Doris Coughliirj Vice President, Miss Emily MaBdeil; Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs. Clarence Scott. ■ « Charter members were: Mrs. Alice Dennis, Mrs. Lena Woodward, Mrs. Nena Cannon, Mrs. Bert Scott, Miss Elsie Courtney, Mrs. Mary Wayland, Mrs. Mamie Leake and Miss Ida . Browning. ’ Other members who have served as presidents are: Mrs. John Woodward, Mrs. Trout and Mrs. Ruby Cannon, who now is our president. The first demonstration as a group Was on How to Use the Pressure Cooker for Canning at the home of Mrs. Alice Dennis. Some of the outstanding topics we have had are: hammered metal trays -and copper bowls, chair, reseating, how to freeze food, electrifying lamps, stenciling of doth,* buffet meals, Christmas gifts, and, many, many more. A number of the members, have appeared on radio programs. Those taking part were Mrs. Nena Cannon, Mrs. Ruby Cannon, Mrs. Clarence Scott, Mrs. John Woodward, Miss Ida Browning and Miss Elsie Courtney. Every year the dub has had a community picnic inviting all families and friends. An outstanding picnic was in 1954 when there were over 100 people present. Ahother . community project is sending trays of fruit to the sick and flowers to the bereaved families. • As a'whole we feel that our community and our families have gained much through our participation in the home demonstration work. FLINT HILL By Mrs. Barbara Gentry Though there had been some Home Demonstration work in the county from time to time, Flint Hill homemakers did not Organize until January 23, 1945. It was during the last months of the war when some foods, textiles, tires and other materials were scarce and the first demonstrations centered around conservation, victory gardens and labor saving methods. Before long, community 'needs were noticed and among the first was the need for a full time home agent.; The members .contacted their supervisor and did all they could to obtain these services. Community health, war bond sales, saving of used fats, 4-H club sponsoring and organizing the PTA were some of the projects studied and carried out that first year. Charter members were Mrs. R. L. Massie, Mrs. Frank Cary, Miss Ruth Stevens and Mrs. J. P. Cook. Soon the club started taking part in county planning meetings and leaders meetings, broadening its program to reach more community needs.'Much planning was done and the resulting programs improved living conditions and brought more beauty into the homes. Leaders were trained to that some of the meetings were led and demonstrations given by individual club members. This gave confidence and poise to those who took part and -this work is still going on. Community recreation has been a project for a number of years and has resulted in some good times for 4-H members, school children and family groups. One of the major undertakings was to help start the hot lunch program in cooperation with the P.T.A. This was a successful job that gave much satisfaction to all who helped. Another project was to help send a 4-H member to camp each summer. This has been continued since ,1947. Some of the community services rendered by club members are: voluntary 4-H club leaders (two of these have received' the Silver Clover award for more than five years of service, Mrs. Frank Cary who has served 9 years and Mrs. W. A. Gentry who has served 8) help with Red Cross blood bank, donations of food and clothing for needy, parties given for school at Eastej- time, cooperating with the health department to get T B clinic, < before health unit was organized) contributions made regularly to March of Dimes, 4-H clubs, street light fund, “Pennies for friendship” fund (sent abroad to further friendship between our county and others. Many of the women correspond with friends jn foreign countries in a “pen pal” arrangement. There is a long list of demonstrations given for the improvement of family health,, beautification of home and grounds, better housekeeping methods, skill in sewing, decorating, flower arrangements, crafts, recreation, furniture refinishing, making of slip covers, drapes and other decorations about the home, better gardens, freezing and canning of\ foods, millenery, water systems, kitchen planning, care and choice of equipment, rug making and many more. Each year for the past four years a summer trip has been planned with Flint Hill members enjoying each one. Some historical spot or science attraction is included. This year the goal is a two day trip to Hershey and Gettysburg, Pa. There is not a larger membership than in the begnining but those who have kept up their membership have learned many skills, have improved their living in many ways and have helped many others in the community. Of the organized membership, the following are still active: Mrs. Cary, Mrs. Cook, Miss Ruth Stevens. The Extension agents who have worked wi.th the club: Mrs. Wilkerson, Mrs. Ruth Brumback Sutphin, Miss Louise. Rhoton, Mrs. Janet Sollenberger Kilby, Mrs. Elizabeth Fuss Powers. Miss Matilda.Garner did some Home Demonstration work in the county in 1932 but the club was not organized at that time. F. T. VALLEY By Mrs. C. R. Hite Since the F. T. Valley Home Demonstration Club was organized, the members have tried to reach out to help needy families, sick people and a displaced German family. We have been interested in school projects such as: sending a contribution toward dental work for the children; having a party for the pupils, and having the school board wire the building. We have studied the best ways to prepare health giving foods, the best ways to re-model and make clothes and the right ways to save steps by having a well arranged kitchen and doset space. MASSANOVA By Mi*s Mary Bruct The Massanova Home Demonstration Club was organized as a group in August of 1953 at the home of Miss Mary Bruce. Members present at this meeting were: Mrs. Cletus Printz, Mrs. Myra Wood, Miss Mary Bruce, Mrs. E. T. Jenkins, Mrs. Elmer Jenkins. The group was named after a school once in that community. In the April meeting, the following officers were elected: Miss Mary Bruce, president and Mrs. Eddie Martin, secretary. SLATEMILLS By Mrs. Robert Boyd For many years the women of Slate Mills and vicinity met from time to time with the Home Demonstration Agent» fot the county - for information, for inspiration and for fun, all of which they received in abundance. A couple of times formal organization was attempted, but not successfully. Mrs. L. R. Hudson loyally persisted in trying tq keep up interest by holding meetings, usually in her own home, and at very irregular intervals. During the last week of July 1954, Mrs. Hudson and Mrs. Robert J. Boyd attended the annual meeting of the State Federation of H. D. Clubs and the Institute of Rural Affairs held at V. P. I. in Blacksburg. The. inspiration received from this experience led to renewed interest in H. D. work, even though Mrs. Hudson moved from the county in the Fall. In November 1954, at a meeting held at the home of Mrs. Jennie Miller, Slate Mills H. D. Club was finally organized with the following officers elected and installed for the next year: President, Mrs. Joseph Powers; Secretary-Treasurer, Mrs. Boyd; Program Development Leader, Mrs. C. Bernard Dorsey; Federation Goal Chairman, Mrs. Waver W. Kennedy. At the December meeting Mrs. Boyd was appointed Club Historian and since then has kept up a scrapbook of club activities, accomplishments, information sheets, and records for reference. This has proved very useful as a source of material on projects considered. The planned program has been followed at regular monthly meetings. Mrs- Dorsey, like Mrs. Powers and Mrs. Boyd, is a newcomer to the Slate Mills community, and all these ladies have been attending outside planning and training meetings in an effort to increase program interest among the members. In order to be of service to the community the Club has given serious, thought and discussion to providing some form of community recreation, being concerned with channeling the energy of young people into wholesome activity. In addition, a project of improving rural mailboxes has been undertaken. In March at .tne t^ounty Achievement Day held in Amissville, the Club put on an exhibit with a St. Patrick’s Day theme, decorations on the table, on the cakes, cookies and sandwiches all carrying out the theme in a colorful way, setting off the other exhibits of the new Club. This newest club in the county may be young in age and experience, but it is full of enthusiasm and hope for the future, and united behind its capable leader, Mrs. Powers. sperryvilleT By Mrs. Martha Ann Critrer The first group meeting with six young homemakers present, was held in March 1953. In October, L O IT) C . eigjit our group was organized and naijnafter meeting regularly each month ed, “The Sperry ville H o nj e. Demonstration Club” with charter members. .. Our first money making project was in the fall of 1953, when, working with the County Agent, we served a group of Orchardisjts a picnic supper. We spent time with the three groups of 4-H’ers at the Sperryville school to help them make plans for “Rural Life Sunday/’ This help was given to the 4-H’efs to encourage their participation ^n Church and Church activities.. Last summer our Club served *t the 4-H group leader for their summer project. Three demonstrations were given with records being completed at the fourth. Then a picnic was enjoyed by the Home Demonstration club, their families and the 4-H club. Four meetings were held to plan with the 4-H’ers their Achievejment Day1, at the last meeting the exhibits were prepared and set up for display at the Rappahannock County High School. One of the 4-H groups we had worked with won third prize. Last fall our Club served 4 supper to the Flint Hill Ruritari Club. We also served the supper to the Ruritan Club in which half of the Home Demonstration clubs participated to raise money for the “Continuing Education Fund.” J We have had 12 meetings a year and have had a representative at each of the County wide planning meetings. A member of our club has served as County Goal Chair-) man and another member has ser-t ved as County Secretary and| Treasurer. Our Club has now seven members and several prospective ones. Three of the charter members are still active: Mrs. Lucia Kilby, Mrs. Ann Thompson and Mrs. Charlotte Nichols. Although our group is one of the youngest, not only as a club but in experience as homemakers, we have tried to serve our community to the best of our ability. WASHINGTON By Mrs.G. L. Updike Home demonstration work was given Rappahannock County by two nurses in New York who wanted to do something for people in a rural area. This came through a contact Mrs. J. Hill O’Bannon had with Red Cross and through the Red Cross Committee working in the county at that time. On this committee were Mrs. J. Hill O’Bannon, Chairman: Mrs. W. F. Moffett, Mrs. J. F. Jones, Mrs. Frank Wood, Mrs. D. D. MiHert Mrs. W. C. Campbell, Mrs. Jack Miller, Miss Louise Anderson, Mrs. Ruth Cook, Mrs. Louis Browning, Mrs. John Snead, Mrs. Maud Gore, Mrs. J. W. Fletcher and lot of others. These people represented a county advisory board. Clubs were formed at YVoodville, Sperryville, Smedley, Washington, Amissville, Flint Hill, Reager and Forest Grove. 4-H groups were formed in these schools, also in other schools such as Slate Mills, Sycamore, Hull and Pleasant Valley’. Food for health was emphasized in school groups, larger girls did sewing and held a dress review at achievement day. Women improved their kitchens, their gardens, caned and reseated chairs, made pillow tops and also did cooking. About 300 women took part at this time on April 1st, 1932. Trees shrubs and flowers were planted on the Court House Lawn by th'e Better Home Committee and Community League. This was a county wide project. Since this work was started it has progressed under (Continued on Page 5)
