SUBSCRIPTION (in adrance)___»L00 PER YEAR Veni, Vidi, ViciJ “A man is said to be laconic in his speech when he is short and direct in it. ‘Once when Phillip of Macedonia wished to subjugate the Laconians, he sent a letter to them saying, ‘If 1 come down into your country I will level your great city to the ground!’ A few weeks later he received an answer from them and upon opening it, found it contained the single word, If.” Years ago, I had to stay after school and write the above because I did not study it at home. I read it over once, and wrote it on my paper and to this day I remember it and I have said it over and over again to my children and my friends whenever they tell a long drawnout story when a few words would tell the complete tale. We are sometimes very much bored when some one is telling a long tale or making a unreasonably long speech when a few words brief and well chosen can tell us all there is to say. How much more enjoyabe is a short story that tells us all there is to it in a few words and leaves upon us an impression of its worth. ■ St. R. E.

(Mrs. Aubrey Curtis) Rixeyville, Va. INFLATION BREEDS INFLATION According to U. S. News and World Report, President Eisenhower’s 72 billion dollar budget is not so big after all- This may sound absurd. Seventy-two billions a year calls for spending almost two hundred million dollars per day. But, says U. S. News, Eisenhower’s administration is getting only 32 billion dollars worth of goods and services on a 1940 purchasing power level. The difference between a 32 billion dollar and a 72 billion dollar budget is inflation. Inflation will cost the United States 40 billion dollars in 1957 for Federal government alone, and it will represent over one-half the total national budget. The high* cost of inflation may dawn on most people as a surprise, but not on the farmer. He has been living with it quite a few years now. While the cost of machinery, fertilizer, and everything else but a coca cola has doubled and -tripled, the farmer’s income has been decreasing. Well does the farmer realize that his 1957 income would have looked awfully good in 1940- But inflation has turned this larger income into less money, actually. Now the inflationary spiral is catching up with the wage earners in the cities, and with the Federal government. The cost of goods and services are increasing faster than income—just as it has been doing for the farmer for the last five years. What is the solution? Of course no one knowsBut this much is certain: as the dollar is pegged to nothing and the cost of an expanding Federal government increasing every year, the only forseeable modus vivendi is more inflation, via a larger national debt. B. C. B. Jr The Great Power Of Memorial Day By Dr. Norman J'incrnt Peale I had the privilege of growing up in small Ohio communities in the early part of this century, and one of my most inspirational memories centers around Memorial Day and the old soldiers of the Civil War. To me. Memorial Day was one of the most moving o£_all the national holidays. I was stirred bv the speeches and martial music from the bandstand or cemetery on what we called “Decoration Day.” There was something about the newness of life that the Spring had brought, soft sunshine falling on the fresh green grass of early summer, the misty hills in the distance, the sound of stirring national songs, and above all, the softly flapping flag in the gentle breeze as the speaker told us of our country. the deep devotion of its heroes, and recounted once more the stirring episodes of our heroic past. And many a lazy summer afternoon, I sat on the coping around the old courthouse listening to the veterans of the Civil War tell of their experiences in the epic struggle between the States. A bov’s imagination quickly sent him off behind long columns of blue or grey, and to him, such names as Antietam, The Wilderness, Shiloh, and Gettysburg became very real syid meaningful. Those old soldiers used to talk gratefully of Lincoln’s insistence that those who had borne the heat of the battle and the burden of the struggle, the widow and the orphan, were to be given not charity, but their rightful due as the dependents of those brave men who had fought to preserve liberty and to keep the Union intact. It was regarded as a sacred duty of the nation, and the nation kept faith with its veterans. In those days, as now,were many who had been disabled by the struggle. Their ability to compete in life had been reduced by wounds suffered in battle. Even as a boy I remember hearing how it seemed they were thought of only on such days as Memorial Day, when orators, fervent in their patriotism, remembered, if only for a day, the long continuing sacrifice made not by those who had died in battle, but by the disabled who were to live for many years following the great struggle. The heroes of World War I and World War II and the Korean War are, of course, men w'ho with no concern for themselves, gave their lives that freedom might live. We can never do them adequate honor. And, we must never forget them. They died in their young life, forsaking the opportunities of the years that the rest of us might live and develop our highest hopes and dreams. However, there are other living heroes who deprived themselves of either physical, emotional, or mental health for us and for their fellow countrymen. It would be as wrong for us to neglect or forget them as their buddies who today sleep on some Pacific Island or in a European cemetery. A hero dead or a hero maimed and disabled are both due our equal gratitude and our unceasing devotion. We must never forget, that the most effective way of honoring those who have died is to remember the living disabled, that their lives may be rich and full. They' are a great asset to our country as the living embodiment of devotion to freedom. A country is recreant indeed which' does not everlastingly keep alive grateful appreciation to those who suffered disability to perpetuate everything that: we Americans hold dear. There could be no better time than on Memorial Dav to resolve that we shall gratefully support the honored men and women who have suffered disability from the wars of the United States.

Facts To Know About Your House Wiring In previous articles we have discussed the operation of a home wiring system in terms of the service entrance and ts size. Today we would like to talk a little about branch circuits, the various sets of wires that carry electrcity from the service entrance to the convenience outlets where you plug in your electrical appliances. These branch circuits may well be compared wtih the pipes which carry water from your main cutoff valve to the spigot in your bathrooms and kitchen where you use the water. Just as these pipes must be large enough to provide an adequate flow when several spigots on the same pipe are in use. 'o the wire'"in vour branch circuits should have sufficient capacity' to carrv enough electricity to operate appliances on several different outlets at the same time. Because the electrical capacitv of wire is limited by its size, modern house wirng calls for plenty of branch circuits and there are good reasons for this. Safety, economy, convenience, and efficient operation of electrical appliances are among the most important of these, parfcularlv, since the National Code limits the number of outlets you can safely have on anv on<* branch circuit. Back in the days when lighting and a few mnor appliances were the only users of electricity in the home, few circuits and little capacity were needed and were the general rule. That is one of the cur PEL that IRON/ Always cut off souk iron immediately WHEN YOU'RE INTERRUPTED. U«E AUTOMATIC CUT-OFF TYPE, IF POSSIBLE. ft|T IT IN A * $AFE PXACE TO COOL. -principal rason why most older houses are badly under-wired today. Nowdays, such appliances as ranges, water heaters, dryers and air conditioners each require a separate crcuit for that appliance alone because of the. amount of electricity which they use. With each year bringing new appliances onto the market and new uses for electricity, it becomes very easy to understand the importance rtf havng enough circuits of adequate capacity, not only for today, but for tomorrow, and any re-wiring plans should include consideration of the future. One other factor is, of course, important in providing satisfactory and convenient wiring, and that is making sure that ton have plenty of corn ienencc outlets where you want them. How can vou check your reouirements? Prohablv the first thing to do is to check the number of circuits you now have. Branch circuits'can usually be located by traeng the relationship of.the existng outlets. 'You will generally find that outlets on the same circuit are located along the same side of the house and from room to adjoining room are on the same relative walls.

P. Cook. Rapp - Chats By W. H. LYNE County Agent One quarter pound of 2-4,D per acre applied to Wild Poppy at General Daniel C. Noec’s farm on March 5th, 1957 was 90 per cent effective. The application, made by Allan Kates, Weed Control Specialist of Virginia Tech, was purely a “shot-in-the-dark” as little research has been done in controlling the-pest. Presently it is felt that one chemical treatment is not sufficient to eradicate this weed from croplands 'due to the tremendous amount of seed found in each pod. This treatment was applied to land seeded in barley which is to be* followed by Alfalfa. Since Alfalfa is also killed by 2-4,D seemingly there are two alternatives in keeping the weed supressed or possibly eradicating it, namely; (1) seeding the land back to small grain to allow a second application of the chemical or, (2) making the first cutting of Alfalfa before the poppy goes to seed however no observations have been made. by myself in comparing maturity dates of the two plants. Both Diuron applied at the rate of 0.7 lbs. in 25 gallons of water per acre and C.I.P.C. at 2.5 lbs. in 25 gallons of water gave excellent results at the James E. Yates farm in controlling both common and mouse-eared chickweed in Alfalfa. The application was made December 20th with air temperature at 55-60 degrees, cloudv followed by rain within three hours of application. Dinitro also gave good results however thP chickweed was not matted. At C. E. Johnson’s where common chickweed had formed a thick mat in thp Alfalfa C.I.P.C. at 3 lbs. in 25 gallons of water per acre gave excellent results while Dinitro at 3 lbs. in 60 gallons of water only scorched the surface. • Diuron gave no results in controlling chickweed at Mt. Vernon when applied in March C.I.P.C. also applied in March at 1.6 lbs. per acre gave fair results at the Turner fartn. Indications are thatthe best time to control chickweed through the use of chemicals is in early winter. . * • 4 On May 16th, Amino triazole was applied at 1 and 2 pound rates per acre to Canadian thistle at the R. W. Miller farm in an effort to control what many consider one of th« worst weed pests known. Fanners interested in watching remits are advised the two pound per acre rate was made between the second and eighth fence post to th right of the gate as you enter Mr. Miller's barley field while the 1 pound rate was made between the 8th and 12th posts. Stakes topped with white rags and adjacent to the barley mark the upper boundaries of the treated areas. e » e 2-4,D applied to wild onions in oirchard grass at the Sam Compton farm at the rate of 1.5 lbs.

Moffett Thornton's River has always meant much to the residents of Sperryville. The old and the very young have enjoyed—and relied, upon it in various ways. Time was when it was full, clear, CLEAN and swift—a pleasant stream. The village follows it's river for about a mile and a half and its people have planted their gardens (and raised good ones) along its banks for many years. It has afforded entertainment and been an endless delight to generation after generation of children who since time began have loved and needed the “Little Warn. Thoughtful persons have claimed that the river “tempers the climate of Sperryville,” and that when it is 34 degrees in Washington, with everyone uneasy about their gardens, it is 44 degrees in Sperryville with no one worrying about their beans that are almost ready to bloom. This has been proven many times and it is generally acknowl- / edged that Sperryville gardens are fullv two weeks ahead of the ones in Washington. So the river is a real friend to the gardeners, as well as to the children. In recent years the river has gotten lower and lower. “What has happened to the river?” is a question often asked. There is much talk of the “watershed” among the grownups and much investigating along the banks of a ONCE enjoyed, stream by the youngsters of the town. The story of three small boys trying to find a place to build a dam and sail a little toy boat is revealing. . “What’s that,” asked the middle size boy, pointing to a pipe that was jutting out from the bank. “That’s what you call a sewer pipe,” the older boy answered, "my father told me about it, said I mustn’t play around it—that there were germs there.

Difference In Wool Price Explained By ASC Chairman Tile ASC county committee is taking steps to correct a misunderstanding that has cropped up lately among wool producers concerning the 1957 wool price support program. Under the program an incentive payment rate of 62 cents per lb. has been established which is equal to 101 per cent of the parity price for wool as of September 15, 1956 ASC Chairman H. S. Barksdale explained. The price of wool in some areas has taken a slight rise recently, and certain.producers are receiving 62 cents per pound, or better. Many of these producers think that by receiving a sales price equal to or more than the incentive rate. They aren’t eligible for a 1957 incentive. That is not the case. Mr. Barksdale said. It is definitely to the producer’s advantage to get as high a price as possible, and he explained why. We Can Supply All Your CULPEPER BUILDING & SUPPLY CORP.
