Rappahannock News, November 5, 1959

Rapp - Chats j | By W. H. LYNE j $ County Ag«nt | WC1»a8XXiMtaO00t»65OO0OOO^ For the past two years our Livestock Committee included in it’s county goals, “lj)0% vaccination of all heifer calves against Brucellosis”. Frankly I thought this a goal impossible to reach_BUT looks like I was wrong. The October issus of Livestock Health Bulletin lists Rappahannock as having an estimated 1470 heifer calves. By the end of October 1270 head, or $6.4%, had been calfhood vaccinated putting us in 4th place (percentagewise) of all Virginia counties; only Culpeper, Orange and Nottaway being ahead. With the 232 head scheduled for next week on 53 different farms Rappahannock will be a 100% county along with Orange. Actually we will know 1502 head have been vaccinated .against Brucellosis! I’m proud of this the co-oper.ition of heifer owners, committeemen, and veterinarians is .wonderful. In fact, when we stop to consider Rappahannock has no vet...... I think we are' due more credit than a county having several vets available to do the job. BUT it appears to me__..njany of you think more of your livestock than you do of your own children_So don’t let your heads swell. Frances Thornton tells me only 50% of thffeMM graders at Rappahannock High Sdbool had their pm shots afthe start of school and -Chat -not over 20% of thte entire popul**, tioo «f tthe county; have beeaim- ■ munized. It appears to me many of you had better make an appointment •with your doctor or Health Department to get your polio shots. * • • j* Had a nice letter from Lelia Gentry this week. Knowing die has a host of friends in Rappahannock, I’ve decided to take the liberty of publishing some of the many interesting things die wrote of. “I have just returned from Switzerland as an IFYE and am resting from the holiday by writing letters. “The Danish University has a fall holiday during which the farm youngsters traditionally go home to dig the “tater” crop for winter. I went to visit a '' fellow Techman from Virginia by the name of An- , gie Summons, who is an IFYE to Switzerland. Instead of potatoes, we worked in the sugar beets. They are used to feed the cows in winter, and have to be dug, tops off, put in rows and (from here on I was involved) loaded on a wagon with forks, hauled t<j> the barn and unloaded. Later they’re reloaded and carried to the mill to be chopped, but I won’t be there. It’s like pitching hay only heavier. The fact Angie and I talked jfaster than we worked kept us from stopping to compjain. I got dressed up in knee boots, the stylish lady’s kerchief to hold the curls on, and j big brother’^ work shirt to milk the cows. Swiss cows are the size of pur work horses and I wasn’t sure it would work but I milked three eath night I was home at tthe right time. Can’t say Continued on page two NOTICE Eld, G. E.

It is, impossible to describe the Home.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Wnihington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2*61 * BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered m Second Claw Mail at the Poet Office at Washington, Vs. SUBSCRIPTION’ (in advance)_—-$2-50 PER YEAR Were You There? I reallize this is a “busy world we live in today, but was amazed that so few from our county attended the tea g^ven by the Fauquier Chapter of the American Red Cross at the home of Mrs. N. K. G. Tholand Last week to better acquaint the workers of the two communities. The Rappahannock Chapter has merged with the Fauquier Chapter, but tnis does not mean we can sit down and expect Flauquier do the work for both of us. We still have our obligations; our quota to meet in funds and blood. Those who did not go, missed a delightful opportunity to meet your fellow workers; to see how efficiently thencanteen operates and to gamer information concerning our chapters. . S.C.L. YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS fir Re*. Burr P. Harrison Washington—The 13th Annual Virginia Highway Conference held at Virginia Military Institute in Lexington, kept roads in the news last week. Three Federal Agencies _the- Bureau of Public Roads, Forest Service aijd Army Engineers......joined with State, county r->»^d municipal officials and private 'if industry in contributing to the cpn/ ference program, thus highlrghting ( the major role the Federal Gov' emment is playing today in the road-building drama. The current national highway program has been likened in magnitude by some writers to building 60 Panama Canals. The plan is to build, in 14 years or so, a network of 41,000 miles of highway able to handle safely the volume of traffic expected to move over the routes involved in 1975. Of these 41,000 miles o( superhighways, Virginia is listed to build 1,066 miles—987 classified as rural and 79 as urban. According to Bureau of Public Roads figures, as of October 20, only about 15 miles of non-toll superhighway in V i r gi n i a had been completed in the current program to the full standards set for the Interstate System—the standards intended to keep a road adequate through 1975, assuming proper maintenance. An addition, the Richmond-Petersburg turnpike, although a toll road, is considered acceptable as 38 miles of Interstate superhighway, and another 86 miles of free road is regarded as adequate to qualify as superhighway for today’s traffic volume, although not meeting the Federal criteria for 1975. - The Bureavf of Public Roads figures showed, however, that 85 more miles were under construe tion, as of October 20, with Interstate funds, wherein 90 percent comes from Federal taxes and 10 percent from State Taxes. Federal reports from Virginia and other States reveal that the big push on Interstate superhighway construction is just ahead. In Virginia, for example, according to the Bureau of Public Roads, right-of-way acquisition is in progress for more than 200 miles of Interstate mileage in the State at this time_either preliminary engineering, right-of-way acquisition or actual construction.; and Virginia projects representing nearly $100 million in Federal tax dollars already have been approved by. the Bureau of Public Roads. In general, one State tax dollar must be scraped up for every nine of these Federal dollars spent on the Interstate routes, which are averaging out, at the moment, at $1.1 million a mile. Despite their tremendous cost, the superhighways represent only a minute percentage of the total road mileage of the nation, and, in home of the addresses by highway experts presented at the Lexington conference last week, there was an ominous portene for the hard-pressed taxpayers. There was a suggestion that the increase in the motor vehicle use in the next 10 or 15 years may have been underestimated-grossly, and that much of the superhighway m i 1 e a ge may prove to be inadequate even before the program is finished. Although not even preliminary data have been made public, the carefully controlled tests of pavement wear and damage from vehicles of various sizes and roads also may indicate the need for even more expensive construction than now in use on major highways. Test vehicles, driven by Army personnel, have been pounding over an especially-built test road in Illinois for months now, and will continue to do so into next spring, with detailed wear and tear information, RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS $1.60 PER TEAR Date_.....

It is hoped this material will point die way to a fair apportionment of highway costs among highway users. One futuristic concept which might eventually revise highway design drastically, as a cost not yet reducible to a worthwhile estimate, was outlined in one of the papers presented at Lexington—the fully controlled superhighway, with speed and spacing determined by a control center, actuating die individual automobiles, trucks and buses through electronic signals beamed upward to the vehicles from wires imbedded in the pavement. The basis for Such experimentation is that the speed and traffic volume on superhighways of the future may make it necessary to take away ifrom die individual driver control over his vehicle during high speed runs between major cities. Our dreams of the self-driving car .moving us effortessly and safely over a smooth ribbon of pavement, will stay with us only briefly, until we are jolted back to reality by the next pothole. RAPP CHATS Continued from page one 1 made it up that early in the morning; I have been away from farm life too long. It was great fun and I enjoyed the train trip across Germany; I was getting homesick for the mountains, so with the color bf the leaves I really had a good reminder of the Blue Ridge. Denmark is flat which bothers a hill-billy afjer a while. 1 am working with the state home economics council which works like our Extension Service even to a telephone service to answer questions for the ladies who have a problem concerning something in the home. I also have Danish lessons; while it is not so bad to read, it is not easy to speak so I make all kinds of mistakes. I also go to home economics school for lectures, (in Danish). After Christmas I’ll travel around the country visiting the schools for nutrition woricers, hospitals, schools, etc., any place where people are fed. There is a possibility I will go with two Yougoslavian nutrition workers, which ■will make it even more interesting. The Danish people are wonderful-friendly, tall, healthy, happy and handsome, despite the fact that they live mainly on meat, potatoes and gravy, like southerners at home. The ladies smoke big cigars; the men wear beards and smoke pipes which is safer for them with all that potential kindling on ttheir faces. The farmers are not different from those at home.—they complain about the weather, prices and politics, and have lots of hound dogs. In fact the ones who have moved to town also have dogs and I’ll never know how five people and a Great Dane can live in the usual three-room flat. Give the judging team my best wishes for good luck in Chicago. Sincerely, Lelia, “Teeme” Gentry G. A. Allen, Extension Sleep Specialist announces a field day will be held at the Shenandoah Valley Experiment Station, Steels Tavern at 1:30 p. m. Monday, November 9th ' This meeting; will be of primary interest to sheep and beef cattle producers.
