Fanqnier Democrat ' . \ The Rappahannock Board of Supervisors held tfceir regular monthly meeting on Wednesday, March 6th with all mergers pre- , sent. Practically three fourths of the time was given to the report of the Superintendent of Public Welfare. . The Superintendent asked for an additional $1,234 for the next year’s work. The 1956 budget allowed $9270 for the work. The entire amount, however, spent in the '-ounty from all sources, being $53,000. T :s seemed a lot of money for tax layers to pay, according to one sum -visor, and along with the opinion he offered a good suggest tion that, “teen age boys of-families receiving assistance be encouraged to "Imt and work a familygarden ’"stead of spending their time loafmg around public places smoking cigarettes. This would heln immensely” he said. Granting the increase was taken under advisement. The Board allowed $150 to the County Comittee to help with the Jamestown Celebration. NOTE: Some years ago .the - County had a “Garden Director” " and the work, under the efficient and .conscientious leadership of Miss Louise Anderson was most successful. Land around poorer homes in the countv and in mountain districts that had been growing weed bushes, produced hundreds of dollars worth of wholesome food.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 JOHN M. BARBER JR. and ROBERT E. MANY Editors and Publishers - 5 Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. ^SUBSCRIPTION (in advance)--$2.00 PER YEAR FLY KITES SAFELY O KEEP kites away from electric wires. and T.V. Antennas 0 USE DRY COTTON STRING, not Metal 0 NEVER USE METAL ON KITES, or Kite Tails Q NEVER CLIMB POLES, at any time --- The Northern Virginia Power Company is distributing numerous free posters to schools of this area warning children to exercise caution while flying kites and model airplains. Home Service Advisors for the utility will follow up the poster distribution with a visit to the schools urging students to support the “Fly Kites Safely” Campain. The posters point out the dangers of the kites and planes coming in contact with electric high tension wires. I’tilitv Company Safety Director Raymond Heard states that there are still many tragic accidents reported each year, resulting from carelessness in flying kites and model planes. Fatalities are. numerous and severe burns often are suffered when necessary precautions are not heeded, he said. The school posters point out various recommendations for ** children to follow: they should keep kites and planes from electric wires, use only dry cotton string on kites and under no conditions should anyone climb a utility pole to release kites or planes entangled on the wires. Since it is necessary to use wire for flying powered model planes, they should be taken to an area where there is no danger of coming in contact with electric wires. According to Heard, “communik ties, hospitals and factories that depend on continuous electric service often are inconvenienced bv mishaps which occur from careless kite and model airplane flyers. Meta! wires from these crafts become entangled in electric wires and may cause costly damage> through the elimination of power to all types of establishments and homes, in addition to inflicting severe burns upon, or causing the ideath of the youngsters flying them.” Celebrates 94th Birthday At Home In Slate Mills Mrs. Nora Jenkins celebrated her 94th birthday at her home Sunday with a birthday dinner, Mrs. John Jenkins of Culpeper as hostess.

Adequate Nutrients Essential To High Alfalfa Yields By—J. \ v. Shoulders ’ I i Alfalfa has flhe capability: of being the higher yielding hay crop jiii Virginia, ye" the average yield of alfalfa in 1936 was just 21/2 tons |>er acre, n fast the past ten year average fir r alfalfa is 2.2tons per acre. During this time the acreage of alfjtfa in Virginia has the potential tin produce a higher tonage of hay n the state than is realized from clover, grass and lespedeza combined. Yet vVe are realizing only 1 little more than half of that potential. The most irrportant factor that is contributing to the low alfalfa yield is the lad: of adequate t>'ant food, especially on stands that are two years old and older. With adequate fertil|ization and management, the Virginia AgricultuStation has consis yields of more than four tons per acre. Many farmers have realized equal or higher reral Experiment tantlv obtained turns. If one stops surprising that more rapidly crops. For exam to think, it is not much alfalfa is in need of plant food. Being a high vielder. it used available plant food than other forage de, each tori rtf al)|>I< Piano AND RE Mon. Appotii Tuning PAIRING intment Only mmr.4 WARREN DENNIS 10 Year* 8 Yaara With Experience Stein war Agent Phone GRay*on 2121 falfa hay removes 45 pounds of potash.YVith a four ton per acre yield, 180 pounds of potash are removed from the soil. Virginia soils generally are low in potash and can not furinsh potash in this quanity, so it must be supplied in fertilizer. Phosphate needs are not as great, but phosphate must still be applied to meet the needs of a high yielding and vigorous alfalfa stand. A slight amount of boron should be applied in the fertilizer. On the other hand, well inoculated alfalfa will furinsh enough nitrogen for its needs and also for the orchard grass in alfalfa-orchard grass mixtures. In most instances a 0-1-2 ratio fertilizer, borated is the best to .select for alfalfa or alfalfa mixtures. When a soil test indicates a high or very high level of potash, a 0-1-1 ratio may supply ample potash. Use from 600 to 1000 pounds of a 0-10-20 borated fertilizer or the eqtiivalant each year to assure vour alfalfa is getting ample plant nutrients except when soil fertility conditions indicate another analysis is ‘more suitable. You cannot expect alfalfa to yield at its high potential if vou do not supply the essential nutrients High yielding alfalfa is more economical to pdodime than low vield'ng stands. It is well to remember that when available plant nutrients are used tip the growth -ate slows and yields are low. CARD OF THANKS I want to thank my many friends of Rappahannnock, Madison and Culpeper counties for remembering me on my 89th birthday. The lovely dinner, cake, corsage, cut flowers and many cards were much appreciated. Miss Rosa Burton Weeklti Farm Price Outlook This is the way; prospects for' Virginia farm prices looked *• the Virginia Departmtnt of Agriculture on Thursday. The department offers it to farmers with the warn., ing that no one can predict prices and be right rn.ll the time,) BROILERS Broilers ought to hold the line this week - maybe pick up another cent. At the end of last week Harrisonburg was 20-21c Delmarva was 21% to 22c. North Carolina and MUCH should you pay for a Prescription? • In furnishing a home, you cun ga from store to store, compare prices and values. But jarith your Doctor’s prescr ption in hand, how shall you know where to turn? Mey we suggest that you bfing that prescription direct to this fine phdrfoacy? Here, every prescription is coni pounded by a skilled Registered Pharmacist, and fairly priced according to accurately-determined costs. Come in, next time! Dial 8322 PHARMACY CULPEPER Georgia were both 20c. Supplies right now are slightly below last year’s level, moit likely the only time that’ll happen this year. And for the next three week’s supplies will be bellow the February level - about 5% lowei than they have been. That little slack-up in supply plus an extra push in retail demand as the Lenten season begins should brighen the immediate ouvlook. But it may be short lifed. By April 1, the supply promises to be back to 14% above last year . . . and on up from there. SOYBEANS Soybean prices are snowing signs of weakness now and it’s a long shot in the dark to expect much improvement in the picture from now into new crop time. There's not much to encourage you to hold any you may l^ave for a better price. But there’s one thing jjou can do to help. .Shoop around! Prices vary enough that you mighi get an extra 5-lc0 a bushel by checking a little before you sell, and by knowing your grade. No. 2 Yellow prices vary this much: Richmond $2.10; Norfolk, $2.10 to $2.3; Northern Neck, $2.20 to $2.30; and Baltimore, $2.40 to $2.46. The carryover this year will be about 25 to 30 million bushels, where last year it ran 6 (nillion. Virginia support price is expecttd to be around $2.04 abushel for No. 2 or 6c less than last year. At the first of the year, t^ie nation had about 20% more beans than last year at the samp time, but strong movement in January and February probably narrowed he margin some. Looking aheadd, the export market has strong orosoects, so high oil yielding beans of good appearance are the best bet. WHEAT As we’ve said before, the wheat outlook this year is favorable. Carryover promises to be low, and demand looks good. Since it looks like the price should stay well above support,, aim for high yield from your 1957 crop. CORN We look for corn prices to follow the usual pattern - advancing slightly from now into the spring and summer months. Unless insects or your farm work situation pushes you to move your corn right away, you neednot rush to market. There could be an extra 15c by August in Virginia's producing areas. Prices at the end of last week were: Richmond jfl.38; Norfolk, $1.30 to $1.40; knd the Valley area area *1.45 to $1.55. There's more corn being held on the farms in the State than last year, 25 million bushels compared ot to about 19 million last year but our local supply nearly always runs some below the demand. HOGS We’re in that price slump we’ve been talking about, and a little drop this week wouldn’t be surprising. They held generally steady last week, at $17-$17.75 in Virginia, and $16.75 to $17.00 on Western Markets. So, get by March without a trip to hog market if you can, but do not let your hogs get beyond the preferred weights of your market If the usual happens, the pick-up starts just about 2 or 3 weeks before Easter, and this year that’s the first part of April.
