RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS' _mi. PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING A At Wuteitw, tf t County Vu-«taia DIAL WASHINGTON *861 BRUCE S. BOWIE..... ... PmUkhei Entered a* tecood-clau mail matter at the port office at Waahincton, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: 'ia advance)--1— *200 a yeat Ways Offered To Fight Fallout There is no place that can be sure it would escape unsacthed in an atomic attack on this nation, the Federal Civil Defense Administration is warning rural America. The chief threat to the farmer is fallout, the silent, often invisible and deadly “rain” of radioactive matter from the skies after the surface burst of a heavy nuclear weapon. This can occur hundreds of miles from the site of a blast, and is the reason PCDA has arranged for daily U. S. Weather Bureau ^predictions of the probable patterns for radioactive fallout if bombs were to fall on likely target cities. The heavy range weapons hurl millions of tons of dust-fine debris to extreme altitude where it is caught in fast windstreams and blown long distances before it returns to earth. The pattern of fall generally is roughly cigar-Shaped, with varied intensity, in the area so that some places will be “hotter" than others. Evacuation may be necessary from these places. For the most part tfiere are certain elemental precautions that could be taken by every rural family if it were warned of a fall; but threat. Such warnings would come on Conelrad radio, the 640 and 1240 frequencies. When warning time permits the first thing to do would be to get animals under cover. A barn would reduce radioactivity a great deal, and if the loft happened to be filled with hay, this would cut it still, further. The family should immediately get under cover.

Every family, FCDA reminds, should be prepared to live there for as much as a week without venturing outside. Civil defense monitoring will show when danger is past, and information will be given by radio, telephone, and even messengers. A battery powered radio could be vitally important. At the earliest time that it is sate to- venture outside, it would be wise to get a ladder and wash off the roof. This would sharply cut the radiation inside the home. Places where the water runs off the roof will, of course, be radiologically "hot” and unsafe. Radioactvity is very unlikely to have significant effect on the water supply of an average farm that draws from a typical covered well. Large bodies of water, like reservoirs with large surfaces, should be avoided until they are checked with instruments. Radiological contamination on" the ground can be made. far less harmful by plowing it under. This might well be done around the house and farm buildings, and ground that will be used for human or animal occupancy. The earth cover resulting from plowihg will reduce radiation^ FCDA reports. Stored grain that has any decent kind of cover to protect it from radioactive particles from the fallout should be usable for animal or human food or for seed. If the grain were not protected from fallout, it would be necessary to wait for several days until the rar diation lessens. More information is still needed on the effect of radiation on grain planted in contaminated ground, as to what it does to growing plants, or its effect on humans or animals who eat those plants. nvauaDlC kliuwicu|'c however, that the average fanner and rancher, warned of approaching fallout, should be pretty well able to survive it, preserve his domestic animals, and go on living and farming. Farmers living near cities might be asked for personal rescue service, as would every able-bodied man within an effective distance of a bombed city. Farmers would be called on to farm with efficiency and ability such as perhaps they’ve never had to practice before, because FCDA believes that the recovery of this nation from a fall-out nuclear attack must come in important degree from the rural areas. Most of the nation’s cities will be prime targets, and most of the strength for restoration must come from the farms and ranches. Additional information about fallout and what to do about if is available from your nearest Civil Defense office in these publications: Facts About Fallout, SixSteps to Survival, What You Should Know About Radioactive Fallout. 7th DISTRICT VFW’a TO MEET SUNDAY IN LURAY A meeting of the Seventh District of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Department of Virginia and Ladies Auxiliaries, will be held, Sunday, August 14, at the Luray High School, Luray, Va., at 2 o’clock p.m. V. F. W. Post 621 and Ladies Auxiliary will be host and extend a special and cordial invitation to the members of the Spefryville Post and Auxiliary to attend this meeting. Hurricane Precautions 1. Stay off street. Serious injury often fatalities result from falling glass, signs and building cornices. 2. Don’t touch wires. Downed powerlines are a grave menace. Instruct children in this precaution. j. Moveable awning* should be raised and securely tied, or removed entirely. 4. Shutters should be secured at quickly as possible. Delay may make impossible any chance to get them into proper position, thus resulting in damage. 5. Garage doors and other large doors should be securely braced against movement either in or out. 6. Loose material and moveable objects, such as boards, garbage cans, porch furniture and the like, should be placed where there is no danger of being lifted and blown against a building or through a window. 7. One or more windows should be kept open on the lee side—the side opposite from which the wind is coming—to provide some ventilation and, under certain conditions, to prevent wind damage and to equalize pressure. 8. Temporary lighting methods, preferably electric flashlights^, should be arranged for use in case electric current is cut off. 9. Occupants of buildings on low ground or near waterfronts, which might be inundated or carried away by high water, should immediately go to safer buildings on higher ground. 10. Most important of all the above precautions: Stay indoors during the progress of the hurricane. Don’t mistake a lull in the storm as it’s end. It may be the "eye” or center—usually 14 miles* in diameter—passing overhead. Peola Mills News Mrs. Mary Dulaney was a Saturday overnight guest of Mrs. Gilbert Weakley.

He was a candidate for the Senate four years ago; Mr. Beard identifies himself as an Independent Democrat. — Harrisonburg NewsRecord. July 23, 1955. CORRECTION I do not identify myself as an Independent Democrat as stated in the Harrisonburg Daily News-Record of Saturday, July 23, for Hie word Democrat, in Virginia, has become a misnomer and the so-called Democratic Party of Virginia has departed from the ideologies of Thomas Jefferson as formerly expressed through the party founded by him; therefore I am calling upon the News-Record to make this correction to ‘keep,ihe record straight’.

Salted nuts, cannel corn, potato chips keep their flavor and crispness when stored in the home freezer. Noticeable in new food trend*, *ays VPI specialists, are: plastic egg, cartons, solderless food Cans, foods in collapsible metal tubes, enrichment of foods with dried .

A measurable increase in intelligence quotient of children one to four years old when vitamins were added to diets of pregnant fand nursing mothers has been're* .ported. * VPI nutritionists cite - work done by Dr. Ruth Harrell of Norfolk. The test made on 2,400 expectant mothers in a tenement district of Norfolk where they were less apt to get enough vitamins in their regular diet.

Get Rid Of Loafers In Poultry Flockk Loafers in the poultry flock won’t pay their way—get rid of than. That’s the advice from Harry L, Moore, head of the VPI poultry department. ,1 He says recent reports indicate that by October 1 laying flocks will be 6 to 8 per cent smaller than a year earlier. With better .egg prices likely, this is a good, time to have the laying house full of good layers. If you don’t have enough pullets to fill the house, Moore suggests keeping some of die best layers from uie present flock. The best hens to keep over are the last ones to stop' laying. The hens that stop laying first are the . poorest layers. If you watch the flock closely, it is easy to tell' when a hen stops laying. By culling as they go out of production you don't only save feed, but usually receive a better price per pound than you will later. If you have enough good pullets to fill the laying houses you will be better off by selling the old .birds.

Hospital Plan Introduced In County A campaign in Rappahannock County to introduce the Uniop Bankers’ Hospital plan in this area is being conducted by M. A.

This is a voluntary hospitalization, medical and surgical plan offering coverage for either individual or groups, said Chandler. “The county enrollment plan is highly recommended in principle by the American Medical AssociaaiOn. It provides prepaid medical care in emergencies and always by the doctor of one’s choice. It is good in any hospital and pays full benefits of all ages. This plan offers excellent medical protection at a price that every family can afford. Union Bankers is the only hospital plan that holds ^Certificate of Merit from Dunne’s International Insurance Reporting Agency. High tribute is paid to me value of hospital insurance by many leaders in the medical profession throughout the state. Because of insurance of this kind hundreds of people in this area will be able to. get good medical treatment at home. Doctors, hospitals, others serving the sick have been paid for their services, and this has contributed to a Higher standard of medical service than is found in many communities of similar size. It carries a particular appeal to elderly people in that applications are accepted (regardless of age). Union Banker’s Insurance Co. is licensed by the State of Virginia/’ Mr. Chandler said that this campaign is conducted by representatives “of the highest caliber who have been specially selected for this type of work.” An advertisement concerning this plan appears in this paper. It contains a coupon which may be clipped and mailed without any obligation.

Parsons, social security representative for this area. This new regulation provides that the landowner who leases hjs farm under the ordinary cropsharing arrangement is not considered self employed.iHis income from the farm is rentals from real estate. Since peal estate rentals are excluded from self-employment income, such landowner will not receive credit for social security purposes from this kind of farm income. This is true regardless of the extent of control he may exercise over the farm operations. On the other hand, farmers who pay their workers at an hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly rate are considered the operator of the farm, and are covered under the social security law. Also, farmers who pay their tenants an agreed-upon quantity of the farm crop would be self-employed and covered under social security. Example 1: Mr. Smith, landowner, rents his farm to a tenant with the understanding that he will receive one-half of all crops and livestock produced. Mr> Smith’s income from the farm is rentals and excluded from social security. The tenant is self-employ ed and his income is subject to the social security tax. Example 2: Mr. Brown, landowner, rents his farm to a tenant with the understanding that the tenant will be paid a stipulated amount of farm produce, such as 100 bushels of corn a year, or 25 calves, etc. This landowner. is a self-employed farmer, just as is the farmer who pays cash wages for farm labor, and his income tax is subject to the social security tax. MISSIONARY SOCIETY The Woman’s Missionary Society, of the Washington Baptist Church met Tuesday afternoon at the church. Mrs. Stant Weaver was program chairman, leading a discussion on the topic-*-1 Alcohol.’ Mrs. John A. Keyser, Mrs. Gilbert Updike, Mrs; W. C. Campbell, and Mrs. C. G. Reid took .part in the program.

VRAPP-GtiAfH Bfi W. «. 1*m County A|«M ' t • .v : Reports, seemingly authentic though difficult to conceive, have been received that Terry Curtis, cjairyman of Oraijge, provided 80 head of Jersey cattle green forage for thirty days frbm four acres of Sweet Sudan grpss. The forage crop was chopped with! a field harvester and fed in troughs immediately after harvesting. -Sweet Sudan hju proven excellent for supplemental pasturage in July and August [when bluegrass and white clovejr pastures are dormant. ! In passing alo^g the highway, G. M. Black, Sperryvijlle, appai^ntly is follojwing the same practice as Curtjis in providing fresh succulent fofage for the Mt. Vernon herd. Undoubtedly! Orange has had more raijnfall than Rappahannock. For sUre our dried up pastures haven’t been irtdUctive to a full milk flow nor putting good gains pn steers. I Hats off to Kibble Blaisdale, winner of the 4fH electric project. This was Rabble’s first year of enrollment in jthe project com' 1 ither Rappahan__ feeder calves j different AlbeMadison, and ms, are on feed iving Farm near pleted by twelve nock boys. Thirty-one Ani from about a doze marie, Culpeper, Rappahannock fa at the Walter Culpeper preparatory to exhibition at the Ohio State Fair late this month where they along with another carload of Hereford feeders will represent Virginia’s feeder calf industry. Two of the calves were selected fr<(>m the farm of Earl B. Combs farm near Woodville and believe you me the selection committee wks surely tight in making their selections which is the only way to bje if we are to try to win again in 1955 against competition open to , the world at Columbus 1 ] Upon inquiry directed to Dr. E. J. Johnson, Pathologist of VPI, regarding effectiveness of. a dust treatment employed in controlling New Castle diseases in poultry he reports as follows: “we have done very little work on this product, but we have seen the results of its use and from the reports it appears that it is very satisfactory. In other words, it compares favorable with other methods of administration.! The only objection that I have to the use of this dust is that the'; operator has to be exposed to it] and certain individuals are susceptible to this virus and will develop] a conpunctivitis or inflamation of the eyelids which may be quite severe at times. “Conclusion Poultrymen use the dust method in preventing New Castle in their laying flocks at their own risk. Seemingly much time and labor can be saved in this method, however, the wing web method is simple even though it means handling each bird. Pullets that haven’t been immunized should be treated just before coming into production. Main point is to get tnem vaccinated, against New Castle. It is tragic to see flocks thrown permanently out of egg production by fcn outbreak of a disease which can So simply and economically be avoided. Floyd Compton reports Cost of immunizing, his pullets against New Castle arid Fowl Pox just recently to be 2.8c per bird. S I read—will you read—the ten "life savers” as set up in the Forest Service "Safety Code.” If you tiave read them, read them again, they’re good for anyone to remember whether at the wheel of a car Or on the road at anytime. 1. Look Sharp! ; Drive every Second that the car is in motion. 2. I drive both cars! Figure out what the other driver will do. 3. First, give the car on the right the right of way. - 4. Estimate one ciar length behind . for each 10 ntiles of space. More on ice and snow. 5. Safe speed! Too fast if you lack control in an emergency. 6. Always drive outer lane 1 Extreme right side except when passing. j 7. Vetran driver position for turns—so other drivers, will know what they intend to do. 1 8. Except the unexpected! Watch for hidden hazards. 9. Right to pass only when away from intersections, dangerous curves, hills, etc. J10. Safest to underdrive your Mad lights! Be able to stop in half tile visible distance. Two thirds of the fatal accidents occur from dusk to dawn when there is a third of the daily traffic. Nearly everybody has a secret plan by which he hopes to escape the poorhouse. £Betteb StfealtA fort, SBetteb Sflitmup The LASt THREE DECADES have brought many changes in matters pertaining to health. The normal span of life has ; been increased materially. Consider diabetes, for example. Diabetes ! was first recognized about the time of Moses, or 200 years before the birth of King Tut. It was not until 1921, however, that a specific remedy wap discovered. Today, through the use of Insulin and a balanced diet, the’ diabetic can reasonably expect to live about as long as anybody. Your physician will promptly recognize the symptoms of diabetes. He knows all about the treatment. And remember this, all advertised cuses for diabetes are questionable. Don’t be victimized.
