Rappahannock News, September 1, 1955

VaOkSM Jk. SOME OBSERVATIONS PRO 01.! ON Our Congratulations for a job well done goes to the sponsors, umpires l and supporters of the Shiloh Association softball teams, who havp given up, or rather, invested, their Saturday afternoons this suntmer. However, we feel they are probably already rewarded sufficiently by seeing the good time the 1 youth were having, and their growth in "sportsmanship” as the season progressed. o o It seenu that no one in Rappahannock knew that the late Edgar VV. Howe, Kansas editor and publisher, was known as Sage of Potato Hill. As courtesy, ooo'o matter of common please dim your lights when appiroaching another car at nght. That seems to me sufficient, reason wly to dim them, but ff you don’t feel in * polite mood, dim them for your own good, for the other driver, blinded and confused, nu|y crash headlong nto you. Another startling moment in night driving is when suddenly out of the dark looms a figure, or 2, in dapk clothes, sauntering down the road, only partly off the highway. Imagine with me—you have just passed a car with bright lights or perhaps have passed a big van and instinctively curved the car a little, more to the right. A dark dad'j figure walking along the edge or the road would.be a siaeable target. •» When you have to walk on the road at nigjit, please walk on the left, off thd highway, and take a flashlight. If one isn’t handy wear a white or a bright colored shirt. “The life you save may be your own. ® • . i Do you eVfer stop to think that some delicihns morsel you are about to plus on came to you second or |hird hand, with no verification. | Does this thought halt your tortgue or is the urge to„ let the frienid know what YOU know too grejat. Try once or twice dismissing the shady tale and replacing it with a nice, constructive comment about someone. It may lose you some friends who find you dull will doubly loss. .but those who stay compensate for fhe n Do you evrj ; the time you siping and spent buildng i r stop to think that spend each day gmCriticizing could be up and supporting some worthy person or organization. $25 Contributed To Flood Relief Jane M.

Juniors, the Shiloh W the Stanardsville Senioi Softball diampionships Association’s tournament last Saturday. In games played at Old Hickory Grill, the Woodville-Mt. Lebanon team won over .Washington Juniors by a score I of 10-5. Although Paul Burke gave up only 5 hits, the eight walks surrendered figured in 5 runs scored by the winners. Bobby Leake scored three runs on a triple and two walks, while Maurice Lee Butler and Russell Jenkins both scored two runs on a triple and walk each, to pace the winners. Washington outhit the winners eight hits to five, but Bernard Burke was able to space four walks and pitched effectively when it counted most. He was aided by a fine catch in the 4th inning the bases loaded Steve Butler raced to left center to pull in a liber and double a runner off second base. The Shiloh Women’s tejam unloaded a ,22 hit barrage against Marion Watson, and wtnj on to win handily over Stanardsville by a score of 12 to 2. “Babe” Ruth of Shiloh hit a grand slam hoiher for Shiloh. For Shiloh it was 12 runs oa. 22 Juts, and Stanardsville collected 2 runs on 11 hits. [It was; an exciting contest foftv thjt first, four frames, but Shiloh’s big bats continued to hammer away at the offerings of Watson and broke the game open in the 6th ipning. Several fine defensive playsj were turned in by both teams, and the game was interesting throughout. In the day’s finale, a strong Stanardsville team stunned h fine Brandy team, the score being 5 to 3. The game was a thriller all the way, with the outcome always in doubt down to the wire. Harold Estes, always cool and delilierate on the mound, spaced 6 hits well, in registering the win. His se won’s record was 8 wins against 2 losses, including two fine tournament performances. He was aided-Sat irday by the potent bat of Tiny Breeden, Stanardsville’s fine catcher, udiose two hits for three appearances always came in the clutch. Stanardsville won on 9 hits, good for 5' runs. Leading the batting attack for the losers were Frank Jenkins and Jim Bazzle who got twe| hits each. Bubby Hitt, Brandy’s pitcher, hit a bases-empty homer for losers. Mr. Hash, Mr. Knakel Mr. Hansborough, all of Culpleper Mr. Fincham of Washington, Mr. Yates of Griffinsburg, and Bowman of Woodville umpi and their services are appreciated very much. Appreciation is expressed to the many fans supported their teams in fhis Second Annual Shiloh Association the and Irs.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS _ ' PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock Count; Virgin*' DIAL WASHINGTON 2861 BRUCE S. BOWIE.....Puhlitkei , Entered u second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington. Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: advance) ----_ *2.00 a yew Warnings To You+Labor Day Vacationers “Don’t let that long week end coming up become a ‘lost weekend,’ ” was the advice today of Dr. Mack I. Shanholtz, State Health Commissioner. Cautioning Labor Day vacationers, Dr. Shanholtz said that “jvith a little advance planning . and a lot of caution your Labor Day weekend can be a gain to you in health and Relaxation rather than a loss in lives.” Some important health and safety rules for the September 3-5 holiday were listed . by Dr. Shanholtz to insure everyone a happy homecoming. His suggestions were: 1. Make sure the eating and - sleeping places you patronize are clean and safe. Food poisoning can unexpectedly upset any vacation and the best prevention is to eat hot, freshly cooked or canned foods. Stay, away from high protein foods unless you know they have beeif properly prepared, covered from flies, and refrigerated. All milk and water should be safe to idrink and if there is any question whether the milk has been pasteurized and refrigerated or whether the water comes from approved sources, it is best to use bottled drinks while on the road. 2. Take sunbathing gradually, increasing the time of exposure to the sun each day. Too much exposure results in severe sunburns which require a physician’s care. Cloudy and windy days can also , cause much discomfort. Avoid sun' stroke or heat exhaustion by covering the head and avoiding unnecessary heat, too much eating or , drinking, and strenuous exercise. 3. Always have a companion when swimming; stop before you are tired; watch for rocks, holes, and treacherous undertows, and wait after a meal before enteriing the water, 4. Tate no chances in small boats. When fishing, watch that dangerous fishhook. 5. Exercise should be taken gradually. By not overdoing it, you will avoid aching backs, turned inkles and heart attacks. 6. Carry with you an insect repellent to help relieve the annoyance of the various outdoor insects. Those who like to wander in the woods should watch for ticks, for these tiny insects are disease carriers*, and should be removed immediately. 'J 7. Be aware of the various poisonous plants growing in thf woods and along roadsides. Poison ivy, poison sumac and 'poison oak all 'cause minor to severe skin irritatiions. , 8. Carry a first aid kit 'and handbook with you on your vacation to help with treatment of minor accidents and emergencies. 9. Drive carefully, observing all the rules of the road. Watch for signs of fatigue and stop frequently for coffee breaks, rest periods, and leg stretching. DEEDS RECORDED . From James M. Settle, clerk, to Ralph P.

From Virginia L. Cooper et al to Jacob F. Smith; 160 acres, more or less, in Wakefield District ■T B and S. RAPP-CHATS By: W. H. Lyn* County Agent Brucellosis or Bang’s disease costs Rappahannock farmers an estimated $10,800.00 annually in terms of reduction of milk and calf production alone. This estimate being based upon her cow population, the local situation regarding this disease, and present market values. Beyond any question of doubt the vaccination of heifer calves between the ages of four (4) and eight (8) months of age is the soundest and most economical tool that is available for preventing this loss or controlling the disease. A^ the same time other control measures are recommended such as testing of herds to learn “where you are" coupled with a sanitation program about the bam and precautions in introducing ‘new’ animals on the farm. In connection with the above there are more tools, more readily available to cattle owners than ever before. Strain 19 vaccine, properly administered, has proven an excellent protection against the disease. This vaccine and the cost of administration is now borne by the state through the Division of Animal Industry. The D. A. I. also meets the cost of initial herd tests. Also they have reorganized their personnel in order to put qualified men more readily available to farmers having livestock disease problems these men acting in an adviso/y-educational capacity. Dr. William L. Wake, c/o Regional Laboratory, Warrenton, phone 15, is now area veterinarian which area includes Rappahannock.

Quilting As A Hob Has Its Reward (Thi* article appeared in the , 28 U*ae ef Richmond Timespatch, and U reprinted hare i permission ef j the managini tar.) Aa Di with By Patricia Fariifer (Women’, Dept.) Four. years jago three Culpep* r women visited the State Fair i.t Richmond and! stopped to set the quilting exhibit They were a 1 veteran quiltefs, but the idep of entering competition had qevcjr entered their linind. But that y^ar, they were adpalled by the lack of quality i 1 the auilts their saw. “We kneir we tVere far from perfect in th ■ quilting art,” recalls one membeof the trio nlow, “but we ialsu knew we had ppettier ones (hai that at home.” i That is how ithe women, Mis; edi he: Lucy Catherine Bowie, (first tor of Rappahannock News), mother, the late Mrs. Audrey Bowie, and hei| aunt, Miss Lfucj Stringfellow, became convertec from “just for ^un” hobbyists regular fair exhibitors. nto Wen B|uc Ribbon Since then iwo ^Bowie-Strwgfellow quilts have taken blue ribbons, one at the Rappahannock County Fair in I960 and on« the State pail} of Virginia 1954.' Another quilt won second prize and special mention in year’s fair, too. The trio quilted together about 15 years mtil Mrs. Bowie’s last for he death in 1954. Since then, daugheer and sister have carried on the family hobby, spending much of their leisure time at two wooden quilting frames in the family living room. They really j can’t remember when they began individually getting interested in quilting. “It was no planned hobby,” said Miss Bowie, “Like Topsey, ‘it ist grpwed\” ! ' 11 Miss Bowie ijecalled that her first attempt at quilting was m*de as a young teacher in Greene County the year jgfter her gradu Therms A SEAVTEST Dealer Near You HOMOGENIZED VITAMIN D MILK ! builds strong bodies Look for th« Soolfotf trodomork •fid th« rod til# pottor* ~ / RECTOR’S STORE Phone 2588 FLINT Hlli* VA. .. { Looking Over Their Collection of Quilts ■■ -.WWVV.V'AV ..-rvw -TO I . ■ ation from school. ‘‘The 80-yearold grandmother where I hoarded was piecing a quilt so 1 followed suit to pass away long Winter eyenings.” She said, “When I go back now and look at that nrst one 1 made—phew!—no amount of money could persuade me to show it! It’s in the class of utility quilts, good only for keeping ''warm.” She has come a long way since then. Her goal—to quilt an allwhite linen bedspread. She feels that with another few years and another few quilts experience behind iier, she may be ready to tackle that task. Quilting crept up rather gradually on the family, tucked in with other hobbies, like knitting, gardening, and interior, decorating. Miss Bowie believes members of her family began by noticing quilts at county auctions. Soon they started collecting—■ quilts, books on quilting, and the necessary equipment to become quilters themselves. Bach quilt they make is a rel work of art requiring infinite patience for the long painstaking process of putting it together. First it must be designed, then | pieced, then quilted on a large wooden frfcme. Finally, hand-make fringe may be added as a finishing touch. Miss Bowie estimated that one of her quilts had taken 1400 hours for the stitching alone. Miss Bowie has no idea how many quilts she and her aunt and late mother have made in all. A E-* w were made specifically as fts for friends. “But usually we st make them,” she said. [ “It’s a relaxing and rewarding ^obby,” she added. Miss Bowie, f linotype operator and former ountry newspaper editor, finds quilting the best thing to help her iunwind after the days work. I “When I come home, sometimes late in the evening, overtime, I !t go straight to bed,” she said, t I can quilt for an hour and s relaxed as a kitten. It seems ;et the wrinkles out of the «s; it sets your mind in a eful strolling pace after a day ushing full speed.” Space Consuming Hobby tea Bowie estimated that about ar’s spare time goes into makan average quilt. But many much longer. The team labor>ver one off and on for 15 I In addition to taking lots of time and patience, quilting, cays Miss Bowie, is a space-consuming bobby. For these two reasons she (eels it’s destined to become a lost srt f' . j “Quilting was born of necessity end nurtured by spare time. The twentieth century machine massproduction and mass speed rang its death knell,” she said sadly. |*There may be always a1 few beople who may find the rewarding aspect of quilting—just as I have—to help them unwind from the nerve-wracking business world, but I can’t think the number will ever be a large one.” j | Even quilt collecting is becoming more difficult today, bliss Bowie believes, as prices of good 1 quilts go up and up. An auction hunter herself, Miss Bowie feels that really exceptional quilts just are not for sale anymore. ! Have Large Collection ! “Quilts have been kept as jthe heirlooms they are, and usually When a very good one is to be gold, there’s always someone well loaded with cash on hand to get if, regardless of price,” she nofed. j The Bowie-Stringfellow house bold boast* a sizeable quilt collection nevertheless, most of them products of the women’s industry, some of them heirlooms from the Stringfellow quilters of bygone days and a few auction sale finds.’ . They often have" callers to see the quilts. “It’s a surprising thing,’] Miasj Bowie noted, “but. we have found that men admire , the quilts often more than women. The men study end: really see them better. ^ Sincp many of (quilt-fanciers cant afford j to buy at today’s prices, (Miss Bowie thinks it would be a good idea for the State Fair to staxjt another quilting class—a class solely for exhibition with ownership **i the only requirement, and no prizes, only ribbons —to draw out the beautiful heirlooms In the State for everyone to see. | • i To Miss Bowie and her aunt, ^ each quilt has been an “artistic labor.”| They are at a loss to pick a favorite from among them. Mias Bowie tried, but gave up in desperation after finding she had naimed seven. “Good' grief/’ . hr A*i*»*«* she exclaimed, “whet e queitioel Which one of your children in . your favorite?"

Cows weaker. Hogs Stronger. (This is the way prospects tor Virgina farm prices looked to the Virginia Department of Agriculture on Friday. The Department offers it to farmers with the warning that no one can predict prices and be right all the time.) CORN New corn is beginning ito move to market in Eastern Virginia, with Norfolk quoting $1.20 a bushel for shelled U- S.' Number 2 yellow at 15% per cent moisture. This means a farmer-with shelled corn straight from the. field at 22 to 25% moisture will get about 85 cents to $1 a bushel when discounted for moisture. There ought to be more money than that in corn fed to hogs, even with low hog prices this fall, and perhaps more still in cattle, i. As more com comes to market, chances are even that price will decline. Bigger yields in Western r Virginia probably will balance out loses in the east from rain and ! wind. ,|- ! ■ Wl'-. [ Points in the Valley are quoting $1.40 to $1.55 right now for com, but this is old corn,'mostly from ' , the west. The Valley is not buying any new, wet corn. Unlpss you on . dry it down to about 14% mois- I ture, don't haul it there for a higher price. The situation is pretty much the same in Richmond. . I / « | ' HAY I ■ |. •: If you plan on selling some hay, die quicker you can do* it the better. Early indications are that there will be plenty of hay both in Virginia and from out-of-state sources. Also the rains will give Virginia -her best lespedeza crop in years, and it will be largely in the hayconsuming areas. Valley prices on second cutting alfalfa, pick-up baled, previously $40 to $45, dropped abdur $4,in, the last week or so. Other hay was steady, but indicatons are prices will go down as other areas b*P vest. " 11 t; i: BROILERS K j Broiler prices probably will hold about steady at 26 to 27 cents in Virginia this week, as buyers load up for the Labor Day week-end. The wreck after, therp msjr the some slight declines,' especially with a big drive on tp sell pork at the retail level. Broiler eggs set declined to 2% above last year, from 16% above a month or so ago, and placements are only 7% above last year where they were 19% above in July. \ HOGS i Hog prices look like they have passed the peak of their mid* August spurt, and ate headed dowrn. The Virginia auction average was off 20 cents last week to $17.35, and western markets were off 50 cents to $1630 to $l6.75.' :,li Cooler weather plus a promotion campaign after Labor Day may help hold hog prices up, but the season trend, hastened by a bigger spring pig crop, is dowrn. There may be some fluctuations from time to time, but not enough to balance off extra 'feed. Push hogs to sell finished at 180-200 pounds. , • VEAL j It is still a good idea to sell calves as vealers as soon as they are ready, unless they are really good beef type. . * ’ - r ' i Last week, veal prices went up for the third straight week, reaching an average of $22.90 in Virginia, $2.20 above the same time last year. ’ After (he jump, the market may stall this week, but the trend itt veal prices is up. __ I GRASS-FED CATTLE It still looks Jike good advice to let some of your finished grass-fed cattle go now, despite good grass. Grass-fed steers averaged $19.40 in Virginia last week, 90 cents to |$1 over last year. The same grades at Chicago were 50 cents toj$l under last year. Most of Virginia’s few heavy cattle, 1300 to 1600 pounds, ire moving at $19 to $20, but markets are hard to find. ; i Cow prices have been steady for' ; five weeks at $10 to $10.40. I; LAMBS Lamb prices have been holding well through the heavy.marketing' season this year, averaging $19.80 east of the Blue Ridge last wee with blue circle jgrade bringii $22.50 at Oranger H-DNEWS j Schedule For Nett Week ' Tuesday,—-Washington H.
