RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rtpptkuuwck Comity Virgin* . ■ - -.r--- '* --1DIAL WASHINGTON 2861 BRUCE S. BOWIE..Publithr, holered as second-class mat! matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia ^eUSt.RlPTlON: 'm advance) $2.00 a year FASTEN SAFETY BELTS, A TOUfc IS BEGINNING Let’s take a quick tour of the country. We’ll begin on the East coast, and work west. Sorry, we won’t be able to see all the sights. This is what you might call a selected item tour. We're going to concentrate on just, one item-of interest, and see how it operates in different places. -*■ First, let’s Visit Times Square, in the heart of Manhattan. We enter a tall building, and just manege tto squeeze into* a crowded elevator before the starter sends it zooming up. Quite a few floors up we get out, and work our way through a number of rooms, and corridors until we come to one room larger than the others. . There’s a great deal of activity in this room. Several men are sitting around a large u-shaped desk, looking over bits of paper, and making marks on them. In other parts of the room, men and women are hunched over typewriters, furiously pounding away. A few teen age boys are dashing .around with sheets of paper in their hands. mow we go to another floor ol the building, and we see men operating intricate looking machines. Others are taking the slugs ot metal these machines produce, and putting them together in a form. There’s a lot of activity in this room too. Now we go downstairs, where a huge press is running at a furious pace. As the rolls of paper go through it, they are cut and folded, and we see them come together into l£o printed pages. We pick up One of these products, and think how marvelous it is that all the frantic, and, to the unknowing eye, apparently sin-coordinated, activity upstairs has produced such a complete printed record of today’s events id all parts of, the world. Keeping this newspaper as a souvenir, we continue our travels. The next stop is a middle western tqwn of about 20,000 population. _The building we enter this time isn’t so large, and we don’t have to search very far for the big room. It’s in the front office. It isn’t as big as the one in New "York, but there’s still a lot of action—basically the same type, although fewer people are handling it There is no u-shaped desk, but two men are looking over bits ol per, and one is pounding a typewriter, even as in the Manhattan news room. To get to the, composing room this time, we only have to pass through one door. And the press is just across a small passageway. Here too, metal is being placed in forms. And before long this press begins, and, while operating on a smaller scale, still folds ana cuts the rolls of paper passing through. We take one of these products too. It's a little smaller, but there’s still a lot of news in it. And this particular paper has one thing the New York paper doesnjt have—news about the people in this particular mid western town. Sorry to rush you, but w® have another visit to make, and it’s a long way—the west coast. But, here we are, before you ' know it. This building is the smallest yet, and, on first glance, there hardly seems to be anyone around. But what’s this? Ah, someone is coming in. Seems to.be in an awful hurry. Must be a reporter, he s writing • story now. But what's this? He just got up to talk to a man who . cm* in about advertising. VersaT tile fellow. , Where is he going now? Ah, the composing room, to have his copy set, no doubt. No? My gosh, he s running th« Linotype machine himself! Well, at least someone is making up the pages for him. That fellow is busy too, though, he keeps running over to adjust the Scan-A-Graver. But, before long, these two have the pages made up, and now they put them on the press. This one isn’t as fancy as the last two, but it does the same job. ' We get an example of this product too. Smaller, and we notice by the publication date that it has been a week since the last one. But .it surely is packed with news—all about this town and. county— seems to be the only place the people here can turn for that type of news. Well, that’s the tour. Physically, these newspapers may be a lot different, but they have one thing in common—they’re keeping their readers informed. And there are about 11,000 other newspapers doing the same thing. Big ones, small ones and medium sized, in every state. They don’t all agree on just how or what to write about, or how to present it, but one thing they do agree on—rtheir newspapers belong to the people, and the people have a right to know. Just to keep that in the public mind, these 11,000 are joining in celebrating National N e w s paper Week, October 1-8. And each one will tell its readers—“Your newspaper fights for* your right to know.” —Publishers Auxiliary Farm Price Outlook (This is the way prospects for Virginia 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.) BROILERS Broiler prices should steady some this week, after a drop of four to six cents in the past two weeks. After that, prices will depend on two unknowns. One is the demand for broilers, which usually tapers off at this time of year. The other is the outcome of the strike at three of the six plants operated by Virginia’s largest processor. Virginia price picture last week reflected uncertainty. The Richmond price was 19 to 20 cents, the Valiev 20 to 21. and Delmarva 24 to 241/2These variations may level out some this week, probably toward the 21-cent level prevailing in NOTICE If you need extra cash, see us at once on your valuables. GUNS RADIOS MUSIC INSTRUMENTS WATCHES SILVERWARE TYPEWRITERS - • ADDING MACHINES SEWING MACHINE (portable) A & H LOAN and PAWN SHOP 407-A East Main Street Front Royal, Virginia North Carolina and Georgia. On the supply side, commercial broilers coming to market will be about 18% above last year through most of September, dropping to 12 per cent above by the end of October and about five per cent,above by the end of November. However, eggs set are still rising. They were 18 per cent above last year this past week. This means more broilers coming to market in December. | EGGS Egg prices, nearing theiir seasonal peak, probably are in for some* more fluctuations, but no major changes, for the next, two or three weeks. Ups and downs are normal until prices settle into their usual downward trend sometime between now and the middle of November. This week, adjustments probably will be downward among Virginia markets. The New York marker broke six to seven cents last week and Richmond dropped three cents. Other areas largely held steady, but probably will come down some. HOGS Look for continued gradual declines in hog prices as the fall run of hogs comes to market in increasing numbers. Virginia’s auction average was off 25 cents last week to $16.50, with Richmond off 50 cents to $16.50 to $17, Baltimore off a I'ttle at $17.25, and midwest markets off 25 to 75 Cents, topping around $16. Hog prices probably will continue down until November, but a new report on hog numbers in nine principal Midwest producing stares indicates a little improvement in December and January. The report shows an 11 per cent increase over last year in hogs coming to market between now and December, but only a four per cent increase in hogs to be marketed in December and January. Midwest fanners said they planned to farrow two per cent fewer sows from December to February, indicating a better supply picture come spring. CATTLE ■ It is still good advice to unload all types ©f cattle that are ready for market. Prices are still good, but they are beginning to slip in almost all categories. If you are thinking about getting back into the beef business when others are getting out, there are good beef-type heifers at the current feeder calf sales priced at $16.50 to $18. These heifers are moving well, and a number of them are going ' back to Virginia farms for breeding. At the yearling cattle sales, good, choice and fancy steers 600 to 1,000 pounds are bringing $19 Handle Livestock f < ; Safely At Fairs It’s fair season in Virginia again, and fanners will benefit by careful handling of livestock and other . farm animals. That’s the advice of the Virginia Rural Safety Council. Records of accidents resulting from careless handling of livestock show that farmers need to take proper safety precautions while grooming, fitting and showing farm animals, i The Council says a principal safety rule in handling livestock is to maintain a respect for potential ganger, regardless of the animal’s age or usual gentleness. Always use a staff when leading a bull. Bulls should be ringed at an early age, and worn or weakened rings should be replaced promptly- lyj Work quietly and deliberately when releasing, leading, and drivjing animals. Crowding livestock in jclose quarters sets up a possible accident situation—it’s easy to get -: to ,$21, with the best demand for animals under 800 pounds. SOYBEANS Prospects continue brighter for prices well above $2 by Virginia soybean harvest. Soybean futures have advanced something like 20 cents in four weeks, as the trade continiues to believe the crop will be nine to 25 million bushels smaller than the official 388,000,000 bushels forecast as of September 1. Watch the October 1 official [estimate, due about October 11. Incidently, the North Carolina soybean crop has been seriously damaged by hurricanes.

This represents the minimum quantity that, must be planted, along with similar quotas that have been established for every county in Virginia, if the Statewide goal of twenty million trees is to be met. The local county committee, together with similar committees from Fauquier, Culpeper, Prince William^ Fairfax, Loudoun and Stafford counties, held a joint meeting at the Sycamore Hill ^Restaurant in Warrenton to discuss ways and means of' making this first year of the Governor’s - three-J^ar program a succes.. Meeting with them and leading the discussion was VVilliam E. Cooper, Executive Director of Virginia Forests, In';. His Association is administering the “Plant More Trees” program oA behalf of the 90-member Statewide committee Governor Stanley appointed earlier this year. So that this program will be brought to the attention of every farmer and forest owner in Virginia, 175,000 special PMT leaflets have been prepared. They contain a message from the Governor, together with technical and economic data on tree planting itself.

Cones and Sundaes North Royal Are. at 14th St. FRONT ROYAL reply cards* which will be mailed to landowners in the county during the next three weeks. Landowners who are interested in tree planting, and who return the card, Will be sent a more detailed booklet containing planting instructions and order forms.

Social Security News A number of farm owners and farm operators in Rappahannock County are still uncertain as to whether their income from farm activity is covered under the social security law, according to Robert E. Parsons, Assistant Manager of the Alexandria Social Security Office. Parsons explained that if the farm owner operates the farm himself, with or without hired help, he is covered for social security purposes. It makes no difference whether he lives on the farm or in town and furns over the operation of the farm to one or more employees. Parsons said that the area of greatest confusion has to do w*ith share-cropping arrangements. Under the law relating to farm coverage a share-fanner is selfemployed where he arranges with the landowner to produce a crop or livestock on the landowner s farm for which he receives a share of the crop or livestock, or a share of the proceeds from the sale thereof. The farm owner’s income from this share-farming arrangement is considered rentals from real estate and is excluded from earnings that count for social security purposes. Parsons called attention to social security' booklet 25a that contains answers to many questions about farm coverage. A copy may be, obtained from the social security representative ; by calling at the Court House in Washington the fourth Wednesday of the month. wm IS JUST AS IMPORTANT An appliance I* only as good as the service H provides throughout the years.

HOMEMAKERS’ ITEMS The increased birth rate—up to nearly four million babies last year—plus longer life expectancy among the senior citizens indicates a spiraling expansion 6f the population of the United States. VP I specialists say some authorities predict a population of 215 million by 1975 as compared with 165 milliion today. To feed that number of people at the current rate of 160 pounds or meat per person, would require an increase of 30% in meat production over the next 20 years. Trends in the eating habits of Americans toward foods of animal origin point up the strong possibiliity that consumers will be eating meat at ever-increasing rates in thd future—if it is available. This, the specialists say, is a real challenge to the livestock and meat industry in the United States. ' A good vacuum cleaner deserves good storage. VPI home economists say the vacuum cleaner should be stored in a well-organized, easy-to-get-to cleaning equipment closet. If it is stored in a cramped closet, in the basement, attic, or utility room, it probably won’t be used often enough because extra time and work are required to get it ready for use. The homemaker 'should keep the vacuum cleaner, its attachments, and all cleaning supplies together in a compact storage unit. When sewing on plastic materials, “baste" with paper clips or Scotch tape, not with pins or needle and thread. Plastics should not be 'punctured, except by permanent stitching. ■ i 1953 PLYMOUTH, 4-door .....$1195.00 1951 CHRYSLER Windsor, 4-door.. $1095.00 1960 BUICK 4-door Super..$695.00 1950 DESOTO, Custom, 4-dr., radio, heater $695.00 1950 PLYMOUTH Deluxe, new paint, heater $495.00 1940 PONTIAC 4-door.-.. $60.00 •.. . i 1936 FORD 2-door .-.-.- 150.00 • • RUSSELL BROS., INC CHRYSLER - PLYMOUTH SALES and SERVICE Phoae Washington 2578 FLINT HILL, VA.
