Rappahannock news _ 1 ' PUBUSHED THURSDAY MORNING | (HjpjiJgton, Rappahannock County, Virginia PHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 JOHN M. BARBER JR. and ROBERT E. MANY Editors and Publishers Entered as Second Class Mail at the Poet Office at Washington. Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) ___— j£oo PER YEAR , In the time of Hercules, there was a large serpent called the hydra. The hydra lived in the marsh of Lerna, in the Peloponnesian Islands. He had nine heads, and what made him so difficult to deal with was, that every time you chop off one of his heads, two more would immediately reappear to take its place. Thus, the more you tried to whittle him down, the bigger he grew. We have an institution in the District of Columbia very much like the hydra, the Federal government. Every presidential candidate promises to cut down on the cost and size of the Federal government. Some, after being elected have . even waded into the monster, slashing here and there. But for each bureau killed, two new ones pop up to take its place, and the monster continues to grow and spread. .Mr. Eisenhower is an unusually fine example of a candidate who promised to cut the size and cost of the ’Federal government, and what generally happens to the same- For the coming year he has proposed the largest peacetime budget in our history, 71.8 billion dollars. There is one way to control this modern day hydra. Cut off the air it breathes, and the air it breathes is dollars. Appropriations are made not by the President, but by our penny that Congress did not first appropriate. If our reprepresentatives in Congress. The President never spent x prove increase in the size and power of the Federal governresentatives approve the budget at such a size, they apment. We shall be interested to see how many proponents of economy and of States Rights vote in favor of this fan tastic Federal tonic. „ „ . , B. C. B- Jr. letter to the EDITOR Editor, , Rappahannock News: In the County Motor Vehicles Licensf Act resolution currently being advertised by the Rappahannock County Supervisors, there appears, to me, a direct contradiction in wordage which could oonceiveably affect the use of .funds raised from this proposed tax. Following article 13 it states The purpose of such tax is to provide a sinking fund to be earmarked ‘BUILDING PROGRAM FOR SCHOOLS’” yet back in article 3 it says “The revenue derived from all County motor vehicles license under this law shall be applied to General COUNTY PURPOSES. Which Is it to be? There is. I believe, general agreegree irtent on th{ need for improvement in the public school system in Rappahannock County. The i buildings are inadequate and in poor condition but has it been determined that the need for more modern structeres jS much greater than, perhaps, the need for higher paid and superior personnel? This is In no way a reflection on the present county teachers. On the contrary they are to be admired for achieving as much as they do under the handicaps they work under. However if the best interest of the youngsters are to be served then this question should be given equal consideration right along with rite need for improved physical assets. And possibly even take precident over them. " Also I have often wondered why the time of hearings on proposed motions of the Supervisors is usually set at 10:00 A.M. when probably 95% of the citizenry affected are at work and unable at-, tend unless they sacrifice a days pay? What would be the. objection to holding it (or them) any week night, say about 7:30? M. A. Greeley, Pres. Chester Gap Citizens Ass’n. PS - Yen buck* IS a pretty stiff price for a County tag!

CATTLE There’# nothing new in the immediate cattle price out look - just the same general downward trend as marketings pick up. But thert’s news in,the January 1 livestock inventory report. For the First time in seven years, the U. S. shows fewer cattle than tne preceding year - this time 2% fewer the smallest number since 1953, and 12% above the 1946-1955 average. A breakdown on this inventory shows milk cows and heifers down 1% they were already 5% below the 10 year average. Young milk heifers, 1 to 2 years old, down 1 %. In beef cattle, all beef types - making up 64 % of the total numbers were down 2%; cows 2 years and older, down 3%; heifers 1* to 2 over, down 2%; steers a year and years old, down 2CA ; and calves down 1%. older, down 3:% I heifers 1 to 2 That just’Wight indicate that the cattle production cycle - which by rule-of-thum is said to be eight years - might either be changing - some as farmers watch statistics more closely. In Virginia, it’s time to begin to think of the spring staktr-feeder cattle sales which begin April 9th. Getting a headstart toward good condition on the animals you plan to sell should pay off. The next fat cattle sale in Virginia is set for Richmond on March 4th. Prices at these sales have betn comparing favorably with others markets. At the sale last week, choice steers averaged $20.; good grade steers, $13.40 HOGS We've passed the winter peak in hog prices . . . droping |2.00 since January. All jye can predict from here is the price dip which usually marks the onset of Lent It reflects a slack-off in pork demand and recent movement at wholesale and retail levels have already proved disappointing along with a pick up in supply as a lot of fall pigs reach the market size. The price should recover by Easter, coming this year on April 21. And then comes the most optimistic season for hog producers into the mid-summer high. Something that may have a n«tictable effect on the hog situation as the year progresses is whether the current favorable corn-hog ratio will hold. In September, 1956, the corn hog ratio was 10.8 Which means that 100 pounds of live hog would buy 10.8 bushels of corn. By December it was 13.3. And by January it had moved up to 14.1. It might be smart to assume that kind of improvement would encourage some added late spring pigs. If it happens, the fall price outlook wouldn’t be as optimistic as when the ^intentions report in January said 2% fewer spring pigs. The fall price might get as low or lower than the 1956 level; betttr than 1955. SHEEP AND LAMBS The new livestock inventory report just out shows that for the first time since 1949 Virginia will drop back in sheep numbers this year. The drop-back will exactly match the U. S. decline 2% less than last year. But it was unexpected in Virginia where the trend has been up since 1949, whiile national numbers have been dropping for a good many yaers. The nation is now below tht ten year average. Speaking of sheep, it’s time to remember again that the pre-Easter market ig the early spring strong spot in lamb prices. Any early lambs that can be readied should do well I. . . the earlier the better. Virginia’s 2% lower inventory figure this year won’t affect this spring’s lamb market too much, since improvtd lamb and ewe car* practices are saving more lambs, making up part of that los. tx»aooog»t3waooi»ooooooooi if RUFUS W.

Last week elementary teachers of Culpeper, Madison. Orange and Rappahannock coountits and the high sechool teachers dismissed their pupils for two days and converged upon the George Washington Carver Regional High School to take a closer look at tnemselves in ‘ their roles as classroom teachers. “Let’s Evaluate Our Schools” was the theme of the twan'day workshop, with Paul Hounshell, Superintendent of Culpeper County schools presiding at the general sessions both days. Dr. Barbara Lee Diamondstein of the Education Department of University of Virginia, delivered the keynote address at the Thursday morning general session. In her speech Dr. Diamonstien emphasized, among other factors, the importance of the oersonality of . the teacher, the teacher’s confidence in the child and respect tor him, confidence and trust between teacher and pupil to give the pupil a sense of security, and the necessity of home visitation. Concluding, she admonished the teachers to be ever aware of the fact that they are teaching children, not books. Following tht general session, the teachers met in discussion groups according to gradelevels to deliberate upon the implications of this information presented by the speaker. For these meetings Dr. Diamonstein; Supt. Hounshall; Q D. Gasque, Supt. of Rappahannock County Schools; Mr. Yowell, Supervisor, Madison County Schools; and Mrs. Leslie Fox Keyser, Supervisor of Rappahannock County Schools served as consultants. s Present at the Friday morning general session to offer comments on the conference theme and serve as consultants for the day were Mrs. Alpha Smith, Visiting Teacher of Madison,County Schools; C.

Dr. Pibott, in his comments, stressed -the urgency of the schools’ responsibility in seeing that the teaching done in the classroom be of such quality that it extend beyond the classroom — into the community, the State, the nation, and the world — if our democratic process is to survive and continue growing in a geographically shrinking modern world. Speaking to the teachers on motivation, Mrs. Keyser asked them to be ever mindful of the importance of careful planning, having faith in pupils’ power to learn, giving directions well, challenging tne pupils, setting and maintaining definite standards, and centenn* activities on pupil interests. Concluding her talk, Mrs. Keyser implored, “Let’s light candles, not fil) buckets.’’ After Friday’s general session the teachers, with their consultants, again met in their discussion groups, this time to discuss ways and means of finding and using opportunities for motivation in tne classroom..
