If the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors Ivishes to discuss ; matters it does not want before the people, it should not discuss them in their regular open monthly meetings. For if is matter is important enough to; be discussed by county representatives in their lone monthly meeting, it is surely important enough to be given a place in the county newspaper. In ' the October meeting, the Board of Supervisors did "question the need of H.D. work in the county.

Chief8 Celebrate At "Best Banquet Ever* Feasting on home fried chicke 1 and old Virginia ham, around 5) Rappahannock Chiefs, Squaws and friends celebrated a successful 1955 season with their annual banquet at Guy’s Restaurant, Thursday night. James W. Fletcher, guest speaker for the banquet, praised the Chiefs and their manager for their fine work, pointing out the resulting spirit of friendliness that was evident between the comj munities of Sperryville and Washington. It was a far cry, he recalled, from the baseball games of yesterday, when the two towns; on opposite benches, would meet each other, ending with Washingj ton or Sperryvjlle losing no time getting home. Manager Mahlon Ramey pre-j sented a check of $200.00 to Roy; Leake, chief of th<* Sperryville1, Volunteer Fire Department, andj another of $200 to Bruce Bowie,j chief of the Washington Volunteer Fire Department. A stated amount was left in the treasurer for next year’s organiational expenses. Bob Estes gave a financial report of the club’s gross intake, their expenses and the flet receipts. Following the banquet, Mahlon Ramey, at the request of the players, agreed to act next season as manager of the Chiefs. At his request an assistant manager was appointed, in the person of Roxy Clater. , ' , . , ■-;,- ■ h—nwmaiin wHninnH^i Completes 36 Years With Telephone Company - --frarmt uunsion ‘ In 'the days when little better than 90 telephenes were functioning in and around Sperryville a young lady went to work for the Culpeper Telephone Company as operator, even Chief Operator because she was the only operator in Sperryville. This year, Miss* Fannie Hilton is commemorating 36 years in the telephone business. She has risen from that time from operator to agent—in her home where she manages the duties of an Agent. Thirty-six years ago, says Miss Hilton, the operator’s task was quite different. The automatic dial system for local calls was nonexistent and the switchboard operator was required to ask “Number Please?’ and complete every call, no matter how short the distance between parties. Miss nuton operated a one-position switchboard on a 24-hour schedule in her living room. Her relief periods were taken Over by her sister, Miss Elizabeth Hilton, who still assists Miss Fannie with her duties. This continued until 1929 when the Chesapeake and PotomaC Telephone Company took over the Culpeper Telephone Company, j ’ In 1938, the first dial office was built1 in Sperry ville next to the Hilton home on the Hilton property and for a short while, “Miss Fannie" worked in the Falls Church and Warrenton j Exchanges. On November 7, i 1938; she became agent of the local telephone company. At that time there were 131 stations in Sperryville, "today.” says Miss Hilton, “there are 317 stations.” Todav. Miss Hilton handles about 300 telephone payments a month in her home. In looking back over the years, Miss Fannie remarked, "My experiences with the telephone company have been most pleasant,” for die has seen rural telephone service grow in more than size. She has seen grow in the service it offers rural folks in everyday chores and important Supervisors Discuss Re-assessment Approximately 30 ladies, representing the county Home Demonstration clubs, attended the November meeting of the Board of Supervisors Wednesday morning, to show their support of the H.D. program. Their presence was in answer to "the questioning of the need of H.D. work in the county” tnade in the October meeting. Miss Eva Minnix, District Home Demonstration Agent, presented the stand of the H.D. work, thanked the supervisors for their past support and volunteered to answer questions the members might have on the H.D. work locally. j. r. v^ook, cnairman, cmpna-., sized their support and praise of Mrs. Elizabeth Powers in her work. He stated that this was not the time for the ladies to make their stand, as there was no doubt that the program would be continued through the fiscal year—it was already in the budget. He deplored the scare that the newspaper account had thrown them into. A motion was made to have the treasurer set aside $1500 from the 1955-56 budget for special assessment and equalization of personal property for the year 1956. Those for or against this motion are rerequested to appear before the board in the November meeting. >• (This motion was thus continued until the next meeting). W. C. Campbell made a motion to set aside from the 1955-56 budget $5000 for re-assessment. This was seconded by Supervisor Henry Wood and carried unanimously. emergencies. She has witnessed this growth from both ends of the line— as operator and as agent. . Miss Fannie is a member of the Sperryville Methodist Church and her one hobby is the raising of chickens. Remarked Miss Fannie, “It’s good to start a day off with a nice fresh egg.” E S. Barksdale Elected To Head .-J RappTt Farm Bureau H. S.

Flint Hill Firemen * Answer Call To Service Station Flint Hill residents were aroused ?the wail of the fire siren around o’clock Saturday morning. A smouldering trash pile hunt ino 'flames and spread to the garage building at Wakefield Service Station. The engine with a Urge crew arrived in minutes and soon had the fire out. A number of men had started throwing water on the fire before the firemen came, preventing much damage* A window and part of the roof burned. Rapp'k‘Squawit Take Series From Flint Hill * Femmes9 ’ The Rappahannock Squaws notched a 20-9 victory over the Flint Hill Amazons, Sunday afternoon on the Moffett diamond, taking the three game series, 2 to 1. Losing several of their best ■ players handicapped the Flint H:H girls, but nevertheless they pluckily took to the field. Errors gave the Squaws an early lead, and tho the Amazons threatened they never overtook the Squaws’ lead. Both teams pUyed good ball throughout the series, considering j that many of the blue jeans and baseball caps were dragged out of moth balls. A final estimate of the proceeds from the 3-game series has not yet been determined. The Flint Hill team’s share will go to the Flint Hill Ladies Auxiliary to the Fire Department and the share of the Washington team will go to the . local fire department.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS 0 ■ -v PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At'Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia DIAL: WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE Publisher \ Entered ha second-class mail at the post office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (inadvance)______1_„ $2.00 a year Senator Byrd On Referendunut ; I am very much interested in the Tuck-Abbitt proposal referendums in the localities on the question of enforced integration ‘in our public Schools. Without stating an opinion at this time as to whether this is a final answer, I believe such referendums will be useful in meeting the problem that confronts us. This procedure is consistent with the fact that Virginia’s Constitu. tional provision, providing for segregation in the public schools, was reaffirmed by a large majority id the electibn on June 19, 1928, when the new Constitution, including this provision, was adopted by popular vote. Mow that it is proposed to void this Constitutional provision, means should bo provided tg obtain expression from the people j who have such vital concern in this matter. From its very inception the pub' lie school system in Virginia was basefTupon local self government. .Thomas Jefferson went so far as to say that the parents of the children should directly control the operations of the public schools. This policy of local control is shown further in the fact that all the public school buildings, the school equipment, school buses, etc., are owned not by the State but by the local units of government and most of the school costs are paid by means of local taxes. Such referendums on the local level would in no wise Conflict with the Supreme Court decision. I do not see how any reasonable person could deny the local units —counties and cities—the right if desired to ascertain the will of the qualified voters in each locality. If the vote is for integration, then segregation' can be abolished in any locality so voting. If the vote . is against integration, then the locality, with the backing of the State government, can take action in accordance with its best judgment. All of us should strive to the utmost to preserve the public school system but those who are attempting to integrate in areas where public septijnent is overwhelmingly adverse should realize that the Negro children will suffer - the most if some substitute school system is farced upon these localities. We are facing a great crisis and citizens at the grass roots should make the momentous decisions. Burr P. Harrison Fights Housing Loan Discount Policies Rep. Burr P. Harrison is endeavoring to enlist the aid of Chairman Brent Spence of the House Committee on Banking and Currency in his fight against housing loan discount policies which Mr. Harrison claims have deprived many veterans of their chances to buy homes. The Seventh District Representative has been complaining that the Veterans Administration will not grant direct loans to eligible veterans when the veterans have had opportunity to obtain private loans if the seller of the house would pay a discount fee.

Lucky fur us that this was in tha 17th century. Though it's indeed strange to ns today, tha old method was practiced hy no less a person than John Winthrop, Jr., chem1st and pharmacist, son of the first governor of tha Massachusetts colony. Ben Franklin sold various medicines at his Philadelphia shop. Among others, ho recommended seneca and rattlesnake root for pleurisy. The first prescription drug store in the United States Was established by another Philadelphian, John Morgan, in the 1740’s. A friend of George Washington, -Morgan served as surgeon in the French and Indian War, as chief dispenser in the Pennsylvania Hospital pharmacy, and later as chief physician of the Revolutionary Army. Morjgaa also founded the first American medical school. The amazing progress in medicine and pharmacy since these pioneers of earlier centuries did their work is truly so thing to bo thankful for.

Lee Roy Williams Funeral services were held Tuesday, November 2 for Lee Roy Williams, 74, who died Sunday afternoon in the Warren Memorial Hospital, Front Royal, where he had been a patient for two weeks. A native of Rappahannock County, Mr. Williams was the son of John Williams and Pauline Brady Williams. He spent most of his life farming. The.Reverend R. H. Forrester conducted the services at the Front Royal Methodist Church. Burial followed in Prospect Hill Cemetery. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Mary F. Williams; two sons, Roy O., and Randolph Williams of , Front Royal; 8 daughters, Mrs. Henry Downs, Mrs. Johnson Pomeroy,-Mrs. Rex Shiflett, Mrs. Lester Nicholson, Mrs. Robert Ritenour, Mrs. Anna Morders; all of Front Royal, Mrs. William Hines of Washington, D. C., Mrs. William, Ashton of Leesburg; 2 brothers, Grady Williams of Front Royal, Andrew Williams of Arlington,; one sister, Mrs. Fred Walker of Front Royal, 18 grandchildren'*nd four great-grandchildren. _ Pallbearers were Robert Perry, Lewin Eastham, George Tomko, Willard Downs, Horace Scott and C. V. Herbaugh. _■ BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. and Mrs. Thomas V. Williams of Castleton have; announced the arrival of a son, George Edward, born October 7th at Warren Memorial Hospital, Front Royal. Distributor ROYAL Sheet Metal Works Automatic Warm Air Heating 23 Water Street FRONT ROYAL, VA: % Phone: 574 RAPP-CHATS By: W. H. Lyna County Agnnt The final county-wide Bangs Control & Eradication program for 1955 was completed this week by your county agent and cooperating veterinarians with 206 heifers being Bangs Vaccinated and 296 cows being blood tested for 44 different fanners. Clarence Coleman, who heads Up the Soil Survey work in Rappahannock and who has been confined at his apartment in the Barks,dale home for the past couple of months following an operation for removal of a broken knee cap,* is making satisfactory recovery. Mr. Coleman’s friends are happy to know he is getting along nicely and expects to be back on the job in a couple of weeks. Copies of the 1955 Rappahannock Farm Census have just been received. These statistics show some pertinent trends that we all should be concerned about. Livestock and livestock products sold account for 66.4% value of farm products sales, fruit and nuts 22.4 ner cent. While the non-bearing apple tree population increased by 14,000 trees from 1940 to 1950, the bearing tree population . decreased 52,000 trees, Since this time orchardi.sts such as Lewis Turner, Ned Johnson, Henry Wood, Col. Earl Holmes, J. W. Fletcher, R. V. Snead, H. B. Wood, T. V. Williams and Lucio Kilby have either made or plan to make new plantings, however, in spite of the alertness of these men our apple tree population is dropping alarmingly fast. Looks like a good investment to me where soils and sites are favorable. The cattle population other than milk cows has increased, approximately 3000 head since 1950 to an all time high of 12,100 head. The milk cow population has remained the same at 3200 since 1950 while the stock sheep and lamb population has increased to 3450 head the highest it’s been since 1948. Dur* ing the depression in the early 30’s %>ur sheep population ranged from 6300 to 6700 head. From 1939 to 1949 the alfalfa acreage increased from 53 acres to an all time high of 748 acres. While there was but 8 acres more devoted to alfalfa production in 49 than in 44 the total yield was more than doubled. Value of all farm products.sold in 1949 was $1,725,609; of this amount an estimated 62 per cent was produced by 9% of the farms. Research and farm experience show that 5-10-10 analysis fertilizer is good for small grains, gardens arnjfpcorn. If you have as many a*10 cows on the farm, conserve the manure produced during the winter months ahead, and $20.40 worth of 20% phosphate and $30.00 worth of muriate of potash you’get the equivalent of $135.00 worth of 5-10-10 at todays prices. Expose this manure to rain, snow* etc., for 90 days and you lose about $41.00 or nearly the cost of a ton of 5-10-10. • Frequently the man who claims he can’t afford to buy fertilizer is wasting the best fertilizer OK all— manure kept in the dry, or hauled direct to the field, which has been fortified with phosphate and potash. Anyone wanting to know how to fortify manure and thereby reduce out-of-pocket spending drop by to see us. Annually we get hundreds of requests for fertilizer recommendatioins both as to analysis best adopted to the crop as well as the rate of application, but rare indeed is there a request on how to extend the usefulness of farm produced manure. Many a farmer has told qie: “Give me all the manure I want and I can make you the kind of yields you say I 'Should make.” A truer statement was never made— trouble is that no one—not even George Washington ever had enough farm manure. Today, the supply of manure is still limited but we do know how to supplement manure to make a balanced, plant food and thereby extend its value.
