Livestock Judging Team ^Vins | Distric|t Contest Rappahannock. 4-H’ers won first place over twelve other teams in the Northern Virginia District Livestock liidging Contest held at Verona List Saturday. The team is coached l y our part time assistant County |Agent, Rapley Owings. | • jj The combined score of our three high team members was 1217 points, twtnW points above that of the second place, Augusta county team. Our Cam consists of Jimmy Yates, jack Sisk, Glenn and Randall Upilike. Randall tiffi for high individual honors with Hines of the Augusta team with 4^4 points out of ^ possible 450. G|<mn was second i with a total of 409 points Each team judged: two classes of registered Angus heifers; one class of breeding ewes. Boys are scored not oily on their placing of the four i ijiimals in each class but in addition on their verbal reasons. * Reasons Were given on one Angus heifer class, the breeding gilt class and the class of market lambs. Actually this is the toughest part of the contest! as reasons must be given orally from memory after all classes hav ■: been judged. Each boy gives h'is front of the reasons standing in udges with no one else present arid believe you me they are tough customers. Giving reasons not only eleminates the guessers as eajh boy -must brine out the good arid the bad points of each animal arid in addition give a correct cbmnnrison between individuals makipg^ip the top, midde and bottom I pairs in the class! Our four boysj have been working as a lvestocfc iudging team for several vears sojfhe honor brought to themselvtfs aind to our county bv ths victory Represents vears of efforts and training. Their next competiton will be in the state contest held at Rlacjksburg during the 4-H Short Course between winners from all Extension Districts. Ironical as it jmav be, the low team score piadje by a Nothern Virginia Dstriclj team at Verona on the same animals on the same dav was above Rhe highest score made bv another district which had seven teams ictomneting therefore our Raopapannock bovs in reality excelled 1 over 18 other are teams.

Jamestown Festival News April is here! And the Boy Scouts of the County have started their project of huiding an authentic Early American log cabin on land donated by Mr. C. E. Johnson. Mr. Johnson also donated logs from an old building for use in the construction if the cabin. These old logs will lend authenticity to the project. The boys are enthusiastic, and under the leadership of Judge R. V. Snead, have made plans for the building. Each troup has it’s own job laid out. When the building is completed it will be a permanent meeting place for the scouts of the county. This activity will not only be pleasurable for the boys but will also be educational and of interest to everyone in the county'. When in the vicinity, be sure to stop and note the progress being made. Everyone likes to be encouraged so Jets give “our boys” our full support. Rappahannock High Has 2-3 Record The R.C.H.S. baseball squad,_ h*s a* 2-3 record, as they won a 9-0 forfeit victory over George Mason, High of Falls Church, and dropped a 15-7 slugging, match to (iarfield of Woodbrige. The Panthers are 1-2 in league play, with five district 9 games remaining _ . The George Mason game came to an abrupt end in the top ofthe tourth inning, v* hen the Mustangs’ coach, alter a short conference with Rappahannack coach, Ray Wertz and plate umpire, Roxy Clater, left the field with his team and went home. The reason given for this sudden display of poor . sportsmanship by the visitors was that plater is not a “league certified umpire; however, the action was no doubt prompted by the fact that Rappahannock had a 4-0 lead at the time, while th? lifeless . Mustangs had failed to touch the pitcner, r ran* xuicy ior a mu The odd thing about the whole situation 'was that the George Mason coach waited until the fourth inning to register his protest, and one can’t help but wonder of the incident would have occurred had George Mason been ahead. Since it is not compulsory that “certified” umpires be used, league officials ruled the game a forfeit, with Rappahannock winning by a 9-0 score. As to the game itself. Rappahannock scored all four of their runs in the second inning in an attack highlighted by Tommy Carpenter’s base-loaded triple. Shortstop, Russell Sisk turned in the fielding genr of the day in the 2nd inning, whenhe went deep into the hole to snare a welltagged grounder amT throw the runner out at first by ‘ half a stride. , Any resemblance between baseball and the game with Gar-Field ’ was purely coincidental. In a hectic first inning which must have - made Abner Doubleday turn over in his grave, the hard-hitting GarField squad pushed across five' runs on one hit and approximately seven Rappahannock errors, with four stolen bases thrown in. 'T''>e Indians scored twice more in the third in much the same fashion before Rappahannock fought back, with seven runs in their half to tie the score. A three-run double bv pinch-hitter Frank Riely waa the big blow of the inning. Julian Brown batted across a fourth tally with another two-bagger, and the other three runs scored in unorthodox fashion. From this point (Continued on Page 6) SQUAD NOTES FIRE and RESCUE The Washington Rescue Squad was called to the home of Mrs.Thomas Pullen, below Amissville, on Monday. Mrs. Vionila Pullen, mother of the late Mr, Pullen had broken her hip. She was taken to the Warren Memorial Hospital, Front Royal. There were no fires reported • in the county this past week

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING - At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 M. BARBER JR. and ROBERT E. MANY Editors and Publishers Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) ..-_*2.00 PER YEAR Spotted Alfalfa Aphid Threatens Nation’s Alfalfa Crop Since its first appearance in New Mexico's JUo Grande. Valley four years ago, a. new aphid with a fantastic reproduction rate and a vor- • acious appetite for alfalfa has spread across the Central United States from California to Virginia. Many agricultural authorities now consider the spotted alfalfa aphid to be the nations most serious insect threat to agricultural production. Its rapid migration has caused widespread alarm. In 1954, ■ the insect was reported in New Mexico, Oklahoma and Nevada. By 1956, it had moved into 15 states, penetrating north into Minnesota and South Dakota, east into Mary' land and Virginia, and south to Florida. Infesting only seven southern counties in Indiana in 1956, It is expected to take over the entire state in 1957. It migrates freely from field to field; travels great distances on the wind; and even “hitch-hikes” from state to state by car, train or plane. In the northern climates the female aphid produces from two to five living young per day without mating. Cold winters are not a bar to survival It is not .eliminated by temperatures as lovf as fivtf degrees. The damage caused by the spot- _ ted alfalfa aphid takes several forms. Seedling plants are killed rapidly. Heavy infestations may completely destroy a young stand. Aphids feeding in a harvested field can prevent regrowth by completely covering the developing shoots. f Where sufficient alfalfa survives for cutting, the stand is often ruined by the honeydew which aphids secrete while feeding. A aooty fungus growing in this honeydew soon reduces the leaves and stems to a black, sticky mass. This is unpala-. table, and practically unharvestable with modern field choppers and balers. California’s State Department of Agriculture estimated that in 1956 the spotted alfalfa aphid caused $13 miillion damage to iflfalfa crops. In. 1956, the aphid cut Oklahoma’s alfalfa production by ou per cent, a loss of $16 million to the growers. So far, natural preditors such as ladybird beetles, lacewing flies, apd syrphid flies, have not provided any dependable measure of control. Researchers feel there i s promise in this line of attack and are working with a variety of preditors including a fungus that kills aphids. At present, the Dest control method for alfalfa growers is still prevention. 1 he most effective method of cohtrol is chemically, with malathion. This widely used and versatile insectide was developed by Ameriean Cyanamid Company. Malathion offers high aphid kill, extremely low hazard to hu-'' mans and animals, and a short time interval between application ana harvest. With malathion, there is hope of checking the advance of the spotted alfalfa aphid, and preventing the sticky mess of ruined alfalfa it leaves in its wake. Cooperative programs by growers groups have been highly successful in eliminating “incubator fields.’* By prompt application of malathion dusts and sprays—at the first sign of honeydew—growers have gained important secondary benefits since malathion also controls leafhoppers, mites, spittlebug adults,, alfalfa weevil larvae, vetch brucia, and grasshoppers. Stopping the damage of these other pests, helps to further increase the yield ana quality of the crop.

Moffett What has happened to Rappahannock’s “Little Waters”? Something has- that’s sure, because there are those in the vicinity of “The First Washington of All” who remember when Rush River was wide and deep, deep enough to float a small sea worthy boat, manned by •it’s young builder from the Fodder Stack crossing to the Mt. Salem crossipg, without grounding- “Believe it or not”. Could that be done now? If not, what’s the reason? Young sailors have missed a lot of fun, along with youthful fisherman, who sometimes now walk long distances to find a fishing hole because the “Little Waters’” that were many, near and greatly loved (Rush River is just a ten minute walk from town) are disappearing. Not many years ago swimming holes, fishing and skating places were numerous along Rush River, and in addition to the river there was a full mill race that turned the big water wheel at Baggarlv's Mill. (There is no sign of the mill race now.) A visit to the mill and old Mr. Hopper, the “dusty miller” were valways a part of the fun and education of the young of the vicinity who loved and followed the river. Mr. Hopper always explained how the water from the mill race turned the big wheel, that turned the great mill stones that ground the yellow corn .that smelled so sweet Today there is hardly a river crossing where one cannot cross on the rocks except after a heavy rain. Yes. something has happened to the "Little Waters” and it’s WASHINGTON THEATRE Show Starts 7:15 and 3 FRI. SAT. APR 26 - 27 AUDIE MURPHY ANNE BANRCOFT “WALK THE PROUD LAND” TUES.
