Salem Baptist Church. I wish to report that some work has been done. The chimney has been repaired and made usable and provision has been made for lighting during revivals. Further a local contractor has been engaged "to make repairs to the roof and to do some masot^y and plastering work on the building. We are awaiting the completion of this work'. * There is $118.00 left in the Renervation fund, this being sufficient’ to pay for all contipjatcd work and we are not soliciting additional money at this time. You are invited to attend the services it Mt. Salem which are held at 2:30 on the 1st and 3rd Sundays during the winter months weather and roads permitting. Very Cordially Yours Jos. S. Graver Pastor Mt.- Salem Baptist Church Rapp - Chats By W. H. LYNE County Agent Speakers on the Dairy-Story program presented in Washington last week fired questions to the right and left-topside, bottomside and every other kinda way by fanners contempting going into grade A milk production! This was as it should be for' there are a lot of angles to be considered in making any change. In short the highlights of each talk were about as follows: E. F, Elmore, Extension Dairyman on 'Establishing the Dairy Herd”: “The quickest way is to buy mature cows but watch out that you don’t purchase- someone elses troubles If you want to buy good mature cows will cost $250.00-$325.00 each probabblv the best source is a dispersal sale but be sure to find out whv the herd is being dispersed. Such also allows selection. Best way to find out about dispersal sales in this section is to get on the MarylandVirginia Milk Producers Association’s mailing list. Another wav is to nuri hsse bred heifers ($175-250 00) You usually can count on: (a) the price being a little cheaper. (b) the reproduction health being good. (c) time for the animals to become acclimated to your farm conditions. (d) easier to locate with such sources as thos offered by Culpeper, Fauquier and Prince William Counties. The third way to get started was by purchasing heifer calves from high producing cows that are sired by proven sires or sires of high production pedigrees. The usual advantages5 are: 1. Allows more time for adjustments in the change over 2. Cheaper. 3. Not apt to be purchasing disease. 4. Greater opportunity to utilize homegrown feeds 5. You can be sure they' are vaccinated properly agajnst blackleg and Brucellosis. Disadvantage* 1. Takes longer to get started. 2. Possibility of calfhood disesses. Dan Kite—Extension Agricultural Engineer on Buildings a. The conventional two-story staunchion type dairy barn cost $500-600.00 per cow. b. The l ife storv staunchion type barn costs $300-400.00 per stall. ^ c.

Cows are handled individually and each cow standi 30” above the level of the mar which eliminates squatting (at 1 to 6 squats per milking per cow time spent squaring lor 20 cows, for an average lactation of 305 days!) In a 3-stall parlor one man can milk 25-30 cows per hour and is large enough to hsndle 40-45 cows. If handling 50-80 cows then a 6 stall unit should be had. A three stall unit costs around $5000.00 with an additional $1800 to $2000 requ red for the nine line milker- and bulk tank. Thus the total cost siv for a 45 cow unit of each tvp: figures to be: Two story _— Story and half_ Parlor ___ figure the $24,750.00 15,750.00 16,000.00 e type bam and loafing (includes cost of po i and for hay storage area.

E. Loopc—Farm Management Specialist Farming is no longer a method of living; it is a highly speculative competitive business. Because of this de\trlopment there are increased opportunities for efficiency and improvement. It also has brought about the absolute necessity for the application of basic farm management principles if the farmer is to be successful. During rising farm prices, volume production is most important—efficiency secondary but with present trend in farm prices greater efficiency is an immediate necessity. Since 1910 farm production has increased 88% with a 66% decrease in farm labor supply. Because of this rapid change we have underutilization of labor on many farms. Under employment is unproductive employment resulting in low faiyn earnings per person that could be obtained elsewhere, often the result of too much labor and *too little capital. Since the 1935-39 (base-cost-years) cash farm expenses are up four times. One half of this increase in price and one half in additional kinds or quantities of things purchased. It is much easier to go broke now than prior to these base-cost yeans. Also there 1 is more difference in income between the good and poor farms. Labor cost is four tunes greater noW than during the 193539 period. The farm labor supply is tight on many Virginia farms. Farm wage rates are four times highei than 1940 but still have, not kept pace with wage increases in industry. We are losing farm labm at the rate of 2% per year. Fam ilv labor makes up about 80% of Virginai farm labor. We will continue tc have stiff opposition from industry for sometime. The productfvtty of labor on farms has in recent years increased more rapidly than the productivity of labor in industry. We need to incorporate labor saving methods in a high price period since labor costs do not drop in proportion when prices come down. With low labor costs, an increased volume of production can be cheaply produced by adding more land and more labor. With high labor costs, increased volume and lowered unit costs can be obtained most economically by increased production rates (com silage per acre or milk per cow). We may increase size efficiently by increasing production rates which would be wise on many farms. In the 1WM period tnere was a 39% decrease in dairy farms and a 73% increase in milk sold. Milking parlors, pipe line milkers, and vat holding tanks encourage larger farms. The use of modern machinery is the most obvious way or reducing labor requirements on farms. It is substitute for labor. The increased production per worker is due to the difference in machinery and not in the worker himself. On the other hand on some farms it might be important to make an investment to increase productivity of labor than to make a labor saving investment in machinery, in other words will the labor saved be used more profitably elsewheere on the farm. Most farmers should fully develope present land before more can profitably be purchased. Mr. Loope also showed comparative costs of production of various feeds, which clearly indicates that pasturage, hav and ensilage are being produced much cheaper than grains or costs of mixed feeds per 100 lbs. of total digestable nutrients. Thus with the feasible substitution rates of these forage crops for concentrates in proportion to the cows jfeeding habits inductive to good health^ the same production in milk could be had at $75.00 less feed cost per cow per year in Dairy Herd Improvement Associations in Virginia!

[ Prices are reacting normally to supply-picking ujj gradually as market receipts I drop off steadily. They were dbwn 7% in Virginia last week; $9% under last year. Inspected slaughter is running about 20% bflow a year ago. ; Virginia auctions ended last week 70c higher, at l|.60; Baltimore, up $1.25 to $1^.50 to $20; and Chicago, up $1 to $1.25 at $18.25 to $19. CATTLE j Again this year1, It jjwlil pay to aim for the best possible grade in fed cattle. j \ The latest cattle-cn-feed report shows 4% more {Cattle and calves on feed for market than last year, so quality will be a big marketing factor. j Numbers on feed ovej: 3 months are 10% higher thanj last year; less than three months, 3% above last year. | The late feeding season last year had better price^ than the early season. This ye|r may be more of the same. The report showed marketing expectations to be 18% in January; 15% in February; 12% In March; 55% later. At any rate, best de mand will be for well-finished, t )p quality animals. EGGS For the next few days, we think egg prices have a good chance to hold steady, j with maybe some small strength.

It offers an attractive incentive to farmers who desire to make such land-use adjustments. Farmers should fake a careful look at their farming situation and, if they feel that the Conservation Reserve Program offrs an opportunity' to make advantageous land-use adjustments. thev should visit the ASC county office and discuss the matter with the countv office manager.

Phone 185 deaths, Colonel Woodson said he felt public concern over the problem reached a high pitch during the year, and was reflected in an unprecedented level of participation in safety activities by private citizens. The Virginia Rural Safety council, commenting on the report, gave some details on safety activities by rural citizens and member groups of the Council which may have contributed to the drop: For instance, the Virginia Federation of Home Demonstration Clubs went all-out in an effort to promote driver education, both in the schools and among its club members. An adult driver education program, organized <m county bases, is gaining momentum. Forums and TV programs on safe driving were sponsored, and traffic safety was stressed at a workshop at the Federation’s annual meeting. One county, Campbell, won first in the National Home Demonstration Counctil’s highway safety contest. Four-H clubs also have stressed traffic safety in their programs and public exhibits, and have been provided information and guidance by state troopers and members of thl Governor’s Highway Safety Committee. FFA groups likewise have taken part in educational safety programs. . Rurltan, Farm Bureau, and Grange organizations havs sponsored safety programs and exhibits in rural areas. The Council, throughout the year, supplied a steady stream of information to the press, radio, and TV on not only traffic safety, but many other phases of safe living; and prepared exhibits for such events as the Atlantic Rural Exposition in Richmond, at which information on safety was distributed.' YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS By Rep. Burr P. Harrison In news reports of the President’s budget message to Congress, the headlines went to the figures. It Is generally known, therefore, that Mr. Eisenhower has asked for $73.3 billion in appropriations and contracting authority for the fiscal year beginning July 1, and that this is approximately $2.8 billion over the comparable figure for the current fiscal year. Apart from the figures, however, the message asked for a number of new laws. In other words. It Included spending estimates for programs already authorized by lawwmd . In addition, suggested new Federal activities. In some instances, the President included amounts in his total to provide for these additional costs, in anticipation of their ALUMINUM STORM DOORS CULPEPER PLANING MILL now have a complete stock of Air Master Aluminum Storm Doors for immediate delivery.

In other cases, he suggested what he thought should be undertaken, but did not indicate how much he thought should be spent. It may be worthwnile to look at these suggestions of Mr. Elsenhower’s for new Federal spending, on some of which elaborating special messages may have been delivered by the time this reaches print The President wants a fouryear program of Federal financing of school construction, starting with $451 million In the fiscal year beginning July 1. The United States Office of Education would be in charge. The contention is that the States and local communities no longer are able to take care of their own school construction needs. Mr. Eisenhower also wants Congress to give him authority to contract for h&lf-a-billion dollars worth of additional slumclearance in big cities. In Mr. Eisenhower’s words, other new Federal activities are proposed: “The Congress is urged to enact legislation under which the Federal Government can help the medical and dental schools build more and better teaching, as well as research, facilities* "The unemployment insurance system should be extended and improved. Similarly, Congressional action is recommended to extend the Fair Labor Standards Act (Wage-and-Hour Law) to additional workers. • • • The Federal 8- hour laws should be revised and brought up to date and legislation should be enacted to assure equal pay for equal work. A modest program of grants under which the States can in-> crease their efforts to Improve occupational safety should be Initiated. • • •" The New England States, particularly,* are interested in Mr. Eisenhower's statement: “I repeat my recommendation of last year for the prompt enactment of appropriate authority under which communities can be assisted in solving basic problems of persistent unemployment. • • •” The multl-million-dollar Fryingpan-Arkansas dam project in ■ the West was urged on Congress again, and Mr. Eisenhower recommended prompt action “to decide how the Niagara power project can best be developed.” The President also requested . authority to send to Iron Curtain countries of Eastern Europe, under barter deals, “nonstrateglc agricultural surpluses,” and to incur an additional billion dollars in losses on disposal of farm surpluses for foreign currencies. , Mr. Eisenhower asked Congress to give “special attention” to setting up a Federal advisory commission on the ftn^ arts and to provide a residence for the Vice President. Some form of Federal insurance, or guaranty, of certain voluntary health Insurance plans also is Implied in his request for a law “under which smaller insurance companies and nonprofit associations could pool their resources and experience.” For non-defense activities of the Federal Government, the President is requesting in his budget $400 million more for next year than the estimated non-defense spending this year. His figure Is $2.4 billion mqre than spent on non-defense matters in fiscal year 1956 and $4.6 billion more than spent in 1955. ““"USED CARS BEFORE YOU BUY • OUR PRICES ARE THE?
