Rappahannock News, May 7, 1959

"SCSCV** Attention Orchardist :\Ve have not had but a half dozen or so replies from the recent questionaire sent you regarding the number and variety of apple orchard trees taken out this winter pr the number and variety that you may have planted. TTiis inquiry isn’t mere curiosity ... the information is most valuable in projecting local horticultural programs and plans. Please let us hear from you. * • • I* Ned Jones, Membership Chairman of the Virginia Apple Marketing Co-op., reports sign-up of the free tonnage is progressing nicely. Also that thie organization meeting is expected to be held this month, therefore Rappahannock , growers who wish to have a voice in the election of die officers should see Ned Johnson. Mr. Johnson heads the membership drive in this county] • * * • Persons recently consulting our soil survey in connection with iformulating plans indicated are as follows: Bill Vernam, Forestry Project at General; Noce’s; Bob Foreman, Forestry and Wildlife plantings on his place in the southern end of the county; Bob Apperson, Col King and [Tommy Eastham for pasture suitability; Edward A. Harris, farm "purchase; . Mrs. Leitch, general suitability of farm soils and Maurice O’Baortw selecting additional crop land. Nothing surpasses knowledge available from a soil survey in revealing suitability of soil® for: production of various crops,! wise selection of analysis and rates of fertilization, or in determining whether a farm you may be interested in buying is what you are looking for. Controlling Parasites In Livestock Cattle. Your County Agent continues to see cattle eaten up with lice. Cattle that have been fed good all winter simply to nourish a pest that is ersy to control. It is obvious that a thini cow can’t do a good job of' suckling her calf. One owner had told me he had been advised by a custom sprayer' not to spray his cows until Warm weather. Evidently the man who was to do the job was more concerned over getting his hands cold than he was over ridding die cattle Jice as those same cattle had been out in every snow or cold rain that fell this winter. To be Sure it isn’t necessary to spray on a cloudy windy day—but to spray cattle on a sunny quiet day, and there have been plenty such days this winter, is not as much , shock as a cold rain which keeps the animals coat of hair wet for seveijal hours. Materials: \Vz rounds of 25% Lindane per 100 rollons of water; or 7 pounds of 6% gimma isomer B.H.C.; or 21 pounds of 50% wettable DDT. Allow one-half gallon spray per cow. Caution: Do not spray calves under two months of age with Lindane or B.H.C. 1 Don’t I use DDT on cows beingj milked nor B.H.C. on cows being milked or on animals to be slaughtered within 30 days. If you think cattle will shed lice as they shed their winter coats you are dead wrong. Lice suck an animals blood just as efficiently in summer as they do in winter.

Ramblings From ■ Rappahannock Dear Folks. Guess we really saw more of the Kentucky Derby sitting at home watching T.V. than most of the people at the trafck. Wasn’t it a wonderful weekend for the Gold Cup in Warrenton too. But it is a shame they have to have two big races the same day. Most people to whom 1 talked were wondering if they should stay home and watch the Derby on TV or go to the Gold Cup. The Culpeper farmers Coop. >n Culpeper burned to the ground Friday. It was one of the worst fires Culpeper has ever had. The tentative estimate placed damages , at $500,000. It is terrible to, think that insurance will not cover more than half of die loss. Little did I think, or did Mr. Hill, when he gave me an ad a week Jtgp Monday thaton Friday the Coop, would be burned to die ground. • . Cousin Callie Keyset haSfI*t beer» feeling too well but on Saturday she seemed much better. Sunday is . Mother’s Day and most of our diildren will be coming hone to spend the weekend or the day with us. It reaHy will he nice having them back again. Front Royal and Culpeper are offering some beautiful gifts for Mothers, Grandmothers, sisters o.' even, your best girl. Why don’t you just go out, splurge a little and get them all something pretty? , Some people’s bad luck is certainly good luck for others. When the ministers couldn’t have dinner with Julia and Jimmie Settle Sunday, Uncle John, Arthur and I .filled :n for them. Sure was good. Guess most of you folks in the county will be going to May Day at the Sperryville School Thursday. Hope to see you there. >It is Continued on page ten Rural Life Sunday Last Sunday a •''-H Rural Life Sunday “Sermon was held in the Flint Hill Baptist Church with Rev. John D.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PtTBtlSHED THURSDAY MORNING ' At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2861 BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Ownar Mm SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered m Second Clot Mail at the Pott Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) -.—flM PEE TEAR YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS B' Ret. Bwr P. Harrison Washington—Throughout the Midwest, thousands of metal bins and silos of varying shapes and sizes, marked, “Property of U. S. Government”, stand as embarassing monuments to a self-conmdicting agricultural policy. In Virginia’s James River scores of World War II “liberty ships” have become silent and somewhat ridiculous reminders of our continuing failure to f.gure out how to use our superabundant form production. 'The bins and silos arc full af grain acquired by the Federal Government under its price support program*. So are 96 of the ships riding at moorings in the James. So are storage units across the nation. Handling and storing surplus agricultural commodites is costing taxpayers approximately $3 million a day„_jnore than $1 bllion a year. We are spending about $6 billion a year in federal money trying to help tfie farmer, and nearly $5 billion of it is going for a conflicting combination of programs which include, on the one hand, such devices aimed at restricting production as the acreage allotments and the costly soil bank experiment and, on the other, such encouragements to intensified production as price support payments. It is costing us, for example, more than eight times as much just to handle and store surplus farm commodities *as it is to perform all of the watershed protection and related work of the Soil Conservation Service. 1 Shuttling these surpluses around the country, to sell them af a loss, give them away or store them until we can figure out what to do with them, is running up an annual freight bill approaching the entire cost of the Agricultural Conservation Program, under which individual 'farmers receive assistance in applying approved soil-conserration practices. v Neither price supports nor the soil bank have been of great importance to the fanners of our section of Virginia, of course, but they, together with all other taxpayers, are sharing the cost of applying these measures on a large scale in the so-called single-crop areas of the Nation. It has been estimated that nearly 80 per cent of all the private grainstorage space in the United States is being used to bold governmentowned grain. Five companies at mong the many storing this surrilne are r reel vine* about $500,000 a month each in storage fees. The Government doesn’t have to pay rent for the storage space in the old ships on the James River because it owns them, but it does have to pay for the protection of its investment. This means such items as the installation and maintenance of air-circulation equipment to retard spoilage, spraying to kill insect pests, and die salaries of a corps of inspectors to check the condition of the grain periodically. The Commodity Credit Corp., which has charge of the surplus commodities acquired by die Government, has more than 6,000 employees engaged in acquiring, flipping .storing and supervising a nearly-unbdievable quantity of wheat, corn and other farm products. The grain on the ships in the James could be made into enough wheat to provide seven loaves of bread for every inhabitant of the United States. Under present policies, -there seems no .end to theE increase in Government holding of agricultural commodities, or in the huge' and increasing annual cost of storing and managing these stocks. The Dept, of Agriculture predicts that the value of such products in federal hands on June 30 will be $6.8 billion.a 20 per cent increase in one year. The figure may reach $9 billion by June 30, 1960, according to the Department. RAPPAHANNOCK By W. H. Lyne ' County A cent Sheep Rappahannock’s ewe population trends as compared to that of the state is as follows: 1940 1945 Rappahannock 3745 3859 State 3)9,282 262,464 1950 1955 State 229,202 248,642 Rappahannock 2226 2549 . Assuming th^ accepted rule of thumb, “that one sheep can be pastured for every 1000 pound cow or steer a farm will support,” Rappahannock’s sheep population could be more than tripled without ever over grazing our pasture lands in their present condition. Be it also remembered: (1) Research shows cattle, sheep, and horses make just as satisfactory gains whether they be pastured separately, rotationally or together and‘(2) during time of armed conflict our wool ranks second only to food and gmmurri(tion with respect to needs of troops. , / Wool production per ewe increased 1.2 pounds in 15 years. This is probably the result in the increaased western ewe population and to some extent, not to be overlooked, to better shearing as result of our annual sheep shearing school. Assuming the servicable life of a ram to be two years, and 35 ewes per ram, Rappahannock sheep owners would need 72 rams per year. > Income per ewe in value of sheep and lambs sold has increased from $5.56 to $12.39 from 1940 to 1959. While this is a significant improvement not entirely attributed. to price fluctuations it is still pathetically low especially when records of 4-H flocks show approximately a $20.00 per ewe income from sale of lambs. Hogs Value or hogs and pigs sold in Rappahannock has been as follows: 1940 1950 1955 $48,192 $160,378 $77,610 The 1955 value represented ap: proximately 11% of the value of - livestofck sold during that year from the county. Our sow population has been as - follows: 1940 1945 1950 1955 ' 738 724 788 599 At the last census these sows were reported on 179 farms on an average of about 3 sows per farm and therefore boar ownership might be on a partnership basis as one boar could easily service 15-30 sows per year. Thus our boar needs shouldn’t be over 60 at any time and, assuming a' two year service(Continued on page Ten) PITTS DRIYEJN THEATRE Culpeper, Fa. THimS. FRI.

Fashion is a tickle goddess whose head has been turned by everything from bunions and bets to politics and even the winds of'chance. A London dress designer, for example, recently attributed the popularity of the sack dress to a reaction against the curves of Jayne Mansfield and Marilyn Monroe. Queen Victoria reacted differently, however, when. Albert cast rdmiring eyes on a Scottish peasant girl dressed in a red flannel petticoat. The queen ordered a red flannel petticoat for herself, and began the fashion typical of ficr reign. The French Revolution took.the frills out of Parisian dress for a while and substituted its own somber tone. The guillotine left its mark in the Titus coiffure, cut very close at the back with the front arranged in loose ringlets. A red necklace was worn, and sometimes a red shawl, to Complete the effect. Another hair style was initiated by accident, when the wind blew off the hat of the Dutchess of Fontanges at a royal hunting party. The resourceful dutchess tied up her hair with her ribbon garter. The next day, all the court ladies appeared with a headdress “a la Fontanges.” The wife of an Austrian archduke introduced a new color by airing her dirty linen.

And for more than a century after, fashionable men and women dressed in yellow-gray, (fobbed “Isabella color.” - During the Middle Ages, longtoed shoes denoted Wealth and dignity. The style has Ibeen blamed by some on a Frenchnian who reportedly invented it toi hide the huge bunions on tu teet.1 About the year 1800, I ord Spencer set oiit to expose tht capricious fashion world. He is said to have made a bet that he: could launch a meaningless fashion that would become popular in six months.

Strength For Life Not long ago it was my privilege to meet a woman who was exceedingly happy in her work. Yet her work was of such nature that most individuals would have found nothing more than_ monetary return from such employment—even that was small. She was responsible for the cleanliness of hospital rooms. Her duties involved the changing of beds and the scrubbing of bathroom (fixtures. What to others may have appeared as drudgery v distasteful was to her delight. Our difficulty often lies not so much in the work as in the atti'tude of the worker. The fact was that joy had been discovered through a higher purpose in life and her work was the means toward that end. What is the explanation that many find real joy in their work while others quickly confess they would love" to “get away from it all” if they only could ? They are "trapped" :n the web of responsibility and long for days of idleness or change. - - In taming to the Scriptures we find in the creation story that God Himself is pictured as a worker. Man was created and placed in the Garden of iBden with die responsibility of caring for the garden. He was made to “have domination over he fish of he sea, and over the*foul of the air, over die cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing thlat creepeth upon the earth.” (Genesis 1:26) Such responsibility involves work. In Exodus 20 .-9 we read “Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work.” The seventh day was to be set aside for the dedication of the work which maro was doing; to honor the Lord through man’s work. Throughout the Bible it is the person who. works to whom most attention is given, rather dun the form or condition* of his wort • Work finds its meaning in the laborer’s purpose in life. Heart and work are inseparable. Three men were employed in the erection of a new building. The first man was asked, "What are you doing?” He replied, “I am earning seventy-five cents am hour,” The second man was asked, “What are you doing?” And htf replied, I am Cutting and laying stone.” The third man when questioned about his work replied, “I am building a cathedral.” All tkfee were doing the same work buf* only the third individual had found satisfaction and purpose in the performance of his task. You can find new meaning to j our work if each task is done well and is the expression of the best of yourself and your ability. Rev. John W.

The average number of pigs bom per sow and gilt in Rappahannock in 1955 was but 5.5 as compared to a strong 5.9 average for the state during the same year. While this is a fair comparison neither figure represents the average sized litter as a guilt will usually farrow but once in the first twelve months of her life while a mature sow should farrow twice in 12 months time. Poultry The value of chickens, eggs and turkeys sold in Rappahannock has amounted to 8% and 7% of the 1950 and 1955 tptal income from sales of livestock, milk, poultry and eggs. For comparisons sake income has Deen as ronows: 1940 1945 Dairy products $54,615 $106,742 Livestock unavailable unavailable Poultry, eggs $55,946 $211,632 1950 1955 Dairy products $156,070 $137,801 Livestock $1,96,801 $708,063 Poultry, eggs $94,699 $69,818 As long as Rappahannock’s poultry industry remains on the farm flock basis it will be of questionable economy if not an unprofitable enterprise. From the standpoint of livestock management among the most serious short comings are: (1) Failure to control internal and exteral parasites; (2) a passive concern over the many advantages available through artificial breeding especially of dairy cattle; (3) too few farmers taking advantage of increased income afforded by marketing their feeder calves and feeder cattle through organized asles (4) low income per breeding female kept There are simple and comparatively inexpensive ways of correcting these faults; ways that are within reach of any man interested in increasing his net income.

Caution: Never use a bigger4 dose than this even if your animal weighs more. Always drench cattle when they are standing on all four feet _never while lying down. Raise the muzzle until lower jaw bone is about level with the ground. In Sheep Most stomach worms in sheep are also controlled by phenothfaizine. Tape worm is the only external parasite visible by naked eye. In preparing and giving drenches to sheep follow directions of the manufacturer. Drench each sheep individually three times a year: in Nevember, March and before turning on grass. Make one of these drenches, Phenothiazine with lead or CuNic, or P.N.B. Don't use Phenothiazine with lead or P.N.B. over once a year. Keep Phenothiazine — Salt (9 parts salt, 1 part ’ PTZ) available to sheep during summer. CuNic is the name given copper sulphate (bluestone) aand nicotine. If you prepare your own, be sure you use the correct proportions and DO NOT USE BLACKLEAF 40 ag a source of nicotine. The present formulation of Black Leaf 40 contains a spreading agent to increase its effectiveness as an insect spray. The spreader is poisonous to sheep. P.N.B. is the trade name given a mixture containing Phenothiazine Nicotine and Bluestone. In Hogs Two, of the newest and most easily administered remedies for controlling , internal parasites to hogs are: Hygromycin and Piperazine. Hygromycin can only he bought in supplement as "Hygro Mix” as the manufacturer is onlj selling the materia] to feed companies. » Piperazine should be used according to the directions on the container. It seems to be just as effective as sodium fluoride and doesn’t set the pigs back quite as much and is not any more expensive. It is available locally.
