The Virginia Division of Forestry reports more forest fires in Virginia to date for 1959 than for any recent year. Oiief Fore9t Wardens arid Foresters have their fingers crossed that the weather will be in their favor during die season. Chief Forest Warden Raymond Johnson of Rappahannock County stated that danger from fires was certain ti increase with the large group of hunters in the woods. He also said common senseon the part of ill persons would save hunting areas from burning. Places and areas to hunt are scarce now without burning up more natural cover and food for wildlife.

They ransacked the room, broke open siterf filing-cabinets and went * through all drawers ’ and desks, scattering papers all over. No valuable papers were taken, however. The theft was discovered Sunday morning after Carol Ann Petty, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Petty found a metal box from the office in the field near her home. Mr. Petty called deputy Guy Burke who notified Sheriff Critzer and J. M. Settle the County Clerk. <•:.*«,j' ; ■ , ‘ Authorities say they found tracks on the ground near the window indicating that more than one person was involved in the theft which they ascertained occurred after midnight Saturday because ink on papers found oustide had not run. It had rained here before midnight. An unusually large amount of cash was in the clerk’s office, representing receipts from hunting licenses sold Saturday. A reward is being offered for any information leading to the solution to the crime. R.C.H.S.

Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered u Second Claw Mail at the Poet Office at Waahinffton, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) $2.50 PER YEAR YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS 8r Rrl> R»*rr P. Harrison Washington—The next session of Congress will see a renewal of the -debate over secrecy in government. The asserted justification for withholding information- from the publi cwill be scrutinized, and there likely will be new legislative proposals on the subject of the people’s right to know. A special subcommittee of the House of Representatives has been conducting a continuing mqxucy into this problem of secrecyin Fed- - eral departments and agencies, and, during the present recess of Congress, the matter has been in the .news repeatedly. Several months ago, for example, a minor official of the U. S. Forest Service, out of an abundance of bureaucratic arrogance, told a Colorado newspaper reporter that the names of individuals receiving Government permits to graze their stock on national forest lands were a private matter. This authoritarian view was supported by thebureaucrats regional supervisor. Only aftfT * public protest against this rtupidrty reached Washington was clearance given for release of the -identities of those being permitted to use, for a small fee, lands owned by all the citizens of the United States. The granting Of grazing pernuu, on.national forest lands » perfectly proper, of course, under P««n* laws, but the idea that what is done with public property f a pnvate matter", as reflected from me minds of Government 'k“*ct***’ aires, gives reason enough for concern over Federal restrictions on the release of information to the taxpayers. Last week, the news reports brought into the spotlight again a different example of the secrecy problem..the situation m which the President insists disclosure ot information sought “would not be compatible with the national interest”. Mr. Eisenhower used these words in denying release to a Congressional subcommittee of an evaluation report prepared within the Executive Branch, on the foreign aid operations of the United States in the Asian nation of Viet Nam. The appropriation bill for the continuation of he foreign aid program, as passed by Congress this year and signed by the President, requires the Presidential ^certification of “national interest” consid-_ erations whenever information is refused a Congressional Committee. (The original House version of Ahis bill included a stricter provision, written by Representative * Porter Hardy of Virginia, which ? would have suspended use of appropriated funds, in certain cases, when • Congressional requests for data were refused. The Senate. modified this, however, and the House-Senate conferees ag/eed on the milder requirement cf a Presidntal certification.) In last week’s incident, it was a request of a Senate subcommittee that Mr. Eisenhower turned down. He took the position that the investigation report sought was an internal matter of the Executive Branch, subject to review and evaluation at higher administrative levels, and that the department concerned could not expect its employees to make full and frank comments if these comments were not to be kg>t confidential within the department. In this instance, what sort of information could this be? We do not know, of course, what the report says about our foreign aid work in Viet Nam, which hi been the subject of some shaiply-critical comments. Condevably, a member of the investigating team might have made a statement that one of our field administrators was incompetent, that another drank too mu<h, or that Viet Namese officials were corrupt. Mr. Eisenhow cr does not oeueve tne rreeiy-given opinions of subordinates, intended for their superiors within a department, should reach Congress, at least in their raw material form. With.respect to the Viet Nam report, however, he insisted that the facts disclosed by the report, although not the report itself, would be made available to the Senate subcommittee “as promptly as possible.” No one would contend seriously of course, that information the disclosure of which would harm our national security dhould be passed out willynilly. On the other hand, the taxpayer, who has to pay for the foul-ups as well as the achievements of Government, is entitled to know what is being done with his money. Inasmuch as he cannot spend his time tramping the corridors of Washington buildings, asking questions, he must rely on the information which can be developed by his representatives n the Congress, and by the news-gathering media.

The first subscriptions to the Rappahannock News were received even before the presses were up, from: Out of town Burr Harrison ; and locally F. Clyde Baggarly and D. D. Miller. Lest it not go down in the history of the paper, 1 must add one name to the loyal supporters. “Mr. Charlie” Bruce. Mr. Charlie was officially known as the “singlewrap expert”. It mattered not whether the paper went to bed at 10 o’clock Wednesday night or 4 o’clock Thursday morning, Mr. Charlie was always there to help. It would be a job for even an IBM to count those smoothly wrapped papers that Mr. Charlie turned out over the years. And smooth they were too. To testify—one day the editor of the Northumberland Echo was visiting our shop, and his first question was “Where is your single-wrap machine?” It took some convincing to make him believe that it was a man-machine responsible for the job. Fran, of Fran’s Kitchen, was also one of the favorite friends of the shop. When the hours became morning, and Fran had to take her brood home, a pot of coffee would be left in the restaurant to keep us awake while the presses ran. Burma Bowie was bookkeeper of the original Rappahannock News, and its right hand for years. “Grade” Ried did anything that needed to be done the mostest. Paula Miller and Neville Wood were first class “devils.” There were many others who got ink on their hands at the Rappahannock News—Marion Watts, Jake Cary, Jackie Price, Mahlon Ramey—but stop we must before half a galley of sorials will have to be dumped to make way for this omnibus. And that’s dangerous dumping. Sincerely, Gladys R. Bowie Many thanks for straighteningv us otU on this. I tried unsuccessfully to get this information. Editor. Armed Forces News Cpl. Frank J.

Ramblings From Rappahannock DEAR FOLKS Thank goodness I came through Friday 13th okay. When ever I thought about it being Friday i3th it scared me to death. Another robbery in Rappahannock and this time in the Clerk’s Office. Saturday night someone knocked out the aireonditioner and entered the office, ransacking it and stealing some money. This time let’s hope and pray our officers keep workihg until they find the guilty party or parties. There was a time when you did not need to lock your house in Rappahannock, but that day has gone. Feels a little more like winter today. Just cool enought to make you fed good. Certainly do hope it will be nice for Thanksgiving Day for all our families and friends to come to the country. Don t forget the turkey dinner at Bromfield Parish Hall Friday night and the ladies will have lots of real nice things at their bazaar as well as some dried arrangements. Maybe you can find a few Christmas gifts. And don’t forget the Thanksgiving dinner at the Sperryville Methodist Church next Thursday. They are serving both dinner and supper, so go anytime between the hours of 12:30 and 3 or 5 to 7. Saw Kit Price in town the other day. Kit and Helen do not get up as often as they used to and we miss them. > .., , Newbill and Carol Miller s house is just about ready. Guess they will be abe to move in before too long. . t A reward is being offered, so 1 have just heard, for information leading to the solving of the burglary at the Clerk’s Office Saturday nitfit. Let’s all pitch in a dollar or two and raise the reward to help find and convict the person or per son* in this crime. Certainly did enjoy my visit in Shirey's Friday. Walked in to the store just to chat while waiting for, Mr. Blanton at Weaver’s. Mrs. Spence, Dr. Lynn’s mother was there with Mrs. Wallace and my other good friend who works in the store. We were having a blast when in walks Jean Stevens, working ads for the Sentinel. We really had a ball then. Time just flew. Mrs. Wallace said next time rite would have a pot of coffee brewing for us. By the way, Mrs. Spence asked to be remembered to her friends in Rappahannock. Believe she really likes us. Boston News h Mrt.

When a County agent’s job ceases to be essentially one of “helping people to help themselves” I hope to be out of the picture. In the process of ‘[helping people to help themselves” committees are selected who are considered leaders in their particular field of agrculture. Rappahannock’s H o r t i c u 1 tirre Committee, after carefully considering the facts on apple tree numbers, ages and varieties, decided some fall lifting was in order. . that Rappahannock orchardists should destroy 63,146 apple trees by 1969! That would mean cutting trees off approximately 140 acres per year for the next ten years. Drastic? How come? We have 77,470 trees above 30 years of age and of these about 26 thousand are over 40 years of age.well past their peak of productive potential. Then too, what about the prices you receive for those off-brand varieties? Weialthys, bon urns, old time delicious, Ben Davis, Ganos, etc., etc. What about those staymen._.oId time varieties that don’t color up_split at the slightest changes in soil moisture level, seem to have a hankering for water core? If yoiu have ’em nice they will sell—but quality sta'Tnen is a mighty big IF. We have over 53,000 trees of such off varieties that fetch lower prices, cost just as much to prune, spray and harvest! It’s likje culling 10% of your cow herd, yet increasing your profits 40%. If you hive such varieties an a good site, of trees too old to produce apples of quality, why not get rid of ’em foi* fuel and replant with a newer, red sport of Delicious or York.—or winesap? * Look what Jim Bill Fletcher has done. See pictures at top of page. Billy Kilby bought an old orchard_now really has something from nothing. Ned Johnson has done a lot of planting of good new varieties on new sites carefully selected and has revived an old site by saying out the old nq account trees dose to the’ground and interplanting with new popular varieties. There arej any number of ways of getting tjhe job done—what’s best in one qrchard may not work —*-—-w Cut trees and bulldozed the stumps Made fuel wi od of the trunks Has a nice young tree of a popular variety coming on to take their place. in another. Semi dwarfs can bg. planted close together. All old orchards weren’t planted the same. Sane were planted on poor sites. In such cases you’d better locate a new site or get out of the apple game.-.otherwise you’ll be starved out and your business will die slowly. Cold weather is coming as sure as Christmas. Apple wood makes pretty comfy heat, and you’ll be helping yourself as well as others by destroying those old or off-variety trees. As is the case with any farm comodity; poor quality fruit (and variety is a quality factor) depress prices received for quality apples! In Memoriam In loving memory of our dear husband and father, Luther S. Jenkins, who passed away November 12, 1952. Seven years have gone by. Our hearts are still sore. How can we help but feel so lonely When your voice we do not hear. For no words were ever sweeter Than the words you spoke so dear. At times our thoughts go wandering, To the grave not far away Where lives the sweetest memory That will never fade away. God alone knew what was best He called him home to rest. But the golden gate flew open God’s gentle voice said come, And words unspoken he entered home.

On that misty, moisty Saturday morning, a small cluster of hunt enthusiasts gathered at the Fowlers’ gate to see the Rappahannock Hunt off. Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Crowe, Miss Flora Lee Muth and her guest from the U. of Va. law school, Miss Mary Joan Mac Kland, Miss Inga Jeppsson, house guest of the Tholands, and our most faithful supporter and mainstay, the lively Mrs. James W. Fletcher, composed this damp but cheerful cluster. At 10:15 hounds were roaded up Long Mt. At 10:30 the Hunts-, man cast hounds beneath Helen Fuller’s house. At 10:31, they struck-sure and hard. Immediatelv that mountain began .,to ring. That special spine-tingling quality...-—at once primitive and joyousL....could be heard in all 21 hound voices. For a good 45 minutes they trailed dose on the brush of their grey, before flushing him into the open and over the big Marsh pastures to his den, high on the side of a grazed field. At noon hounds and huntere were returning to their vans, when hounds hit again; this time in the woods directly above the Fowlers’ stone house. The race started with a long fast canter over MerryBerry covered fields, always within sight of the pack. With concentrated and careful work, hounds drove their second grey into his hole on the side of a branch bank. The first race was outstanding for the excitement of “hound music”, it was the real thing. The second was interesting because hounds could be seen and followed almost 2 DAYS ONLY FRIDAY & SATURDAY Over 300 Large Group Dresses n A1 Sizes of Coats Greatly Reduced be Silek, Owner.

' Over The Garden . Fence \ ’ Louemmc Moffttt The following letter, taken from the Memoir, Correspondence and Miscellanies of Thomas Jefferson, edited by Thomas Jefferson Randolph and published in Charlottes ville by F. Carr & Co.] in 1829, has for many years, been] discussed by Rappahannock gardeners at “Turnip Time”. Monticello, July 21, 1816 To John Taylor Dear Sir, Yours of the 11th received, and I have to acknowledge a copious supply of the turnip seed requested. Besides taking care of myself, I shall again endeavor to commit it to the depository of the neighborhood, generally found to be the best precaution against losing a good thing. I will add a word on] the political part of our letters_|__ I salute you with constant friend ship and respect. , „ (Signed) Th. Jefferson1 And again, it is “Turnip Time” in Rappahannock. If you will walk around die town, "The First Washington Of All, make frequent stops and look over the garden fences you will see; the most beautiful turnips, their shioey, purple tops showing around the edges of the patches. If you happen to pass the Massie’s garden, just after all the school buses have left town, you will probably see Tom Massie right in the middle of the turnip patch, a sharpe knife .in his hand, peeling and eating sweet crisp “Jeffersonian Turnips.” The Jeffersonian variety has been a great favorite in Rappahannock since James Leake Powers (father of the brilliant “Miss Annie”) shared with his neighbors seed given to him by that great gardner, “the Sage of Monticello”. Mr. Powers was a most talented carpenter and worked on the University of Virginia. According to his daughter, MEss Annie, Mr. Jefferson spent much time talking to the workmen about many things. And he shared with them his turnip seed, which he always gathered himself. , And so it happened, that for years gardners brought their prize turnips for Miss Annicj to see. .They were measured and weighed and brought on “quite ja lot ofj talk” throughout the entire community. Card Of Thanks I wish to thank my neighbors and friends for the flowers, cards and gifts during my recent illness. I also want to thank the Washington Rescue Squad for taking me to the hospital in Charlottesville.

Short term storage should be profitable for you this year_but only if you have good beans. Watch the moisture content and if your beans are over the 14 per cent level, it’s best not to risk storage. Harvest in Virginia is about 40 per cent complete. Virginia crop prospects November 1 were two per cent under a month earlier and six per cent below 1958. The world crop is running five percent less than last year, according to latest estimates. However, some competition may be expected this year from cottonseed oil and meaL .especially for feed purposes. So indications are that this will have a tendency' to steady the market In Richmond last week soybeans were $2.0 7a bushel; $2.12 in Petersburg; $2.15 to $2.22 in Norfolk; $2.09 to $2.10 in the North- , errt Neck area; $2.23 to $2.25 in Baltimore and $2.23 to $2.24 in Chicago. CORN ~ The price of com has started back up and should continue to ease up seasonally. And the price should get pretty close to last years although not likely to exceed last year. ' If you need to buy for feeding purposes, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to line up your supply now.
