POINT - POINT ei-paonH^IH Xliaqn WS VA VOLUME 11—NUMBER 19 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, jMARCH 31. 1960 SUBSCRIPTION $2.50 PER YEAR (In Advance) INDUSTRY COMES TO COUNTY WHEN MONEY SPELLS WELCOME A committee of eight county residents has been assured that the location of an industry within the county now rests in the hands of those who are willing to invest their money in the county’s future. At a meeting in the high school auditorium Friday night, March 25, approximately 90 interested question-and-answer session to determine the likelihood of obtaining an industry here. About 95 per cent of the people present at the meeting expressed favorable interest and sincere hope that the industry would locate in Rappahannock County. Pledge cards were distributed, '‘asking that serious consideration be given as to the amount to be invested, since it is local support that brings the business here. Pledges are due for report in 30 days. • This mass meeting Friday night was the culmination of a study by a Temporary Committee of Inquiry which, made its report Present for the open discussion following the report were Wayne King, vice president and personnel director of Aileen Knitwear, and Allen Johnson, both of New Market. The temporary comniifttee expressed thanks to all the people in the county for their co-operation and assistance and especially to J. W. Fletcher for special assistance and guidance. Appointment of a present committee named as members C. B. Johnson, Carson Johnson. Mrs. Virginia Miller, Ray Cannon, Capt. J. B. Stuart, M. A. Greely. Herbert Foster, and H. S. Barksdale. This committee becomes functional at once and is planning early meetings. Fanners Should Check Alfalfa Stands Closely Farmers who failed to get a heptachlor treatment on their alfalfa by March 9 now* will have to resort to methoxychlor or malathion to control the alfalfa weevil. Dr J. O Rowell, entomologist at VPI, says farmers should check alfalfa stands closely and often. When most of the plant tops show some feeding injury, apply the first treatment of one of the insecticides. For most areas of Virginia, this stage will occur any time from earlv April to the first of May, but will vary considerably with location, elevation etc. If the spray is applied too early the effectiveness of the residue will be lost before the larvae come in contact with it. The residue of methoxychlor is effective from 5 to 7 days; of malathion, from 3 to 5 days. In most seasons, the spring-laid alfalfa weevil eggs continue to hatch over an extended period, and a single spray treatment is not enough to protect the alfalfa. Repeat spray treatments as often as necessary. Be sure to allow at least 7 days between the last treatment and harvest of the alfalfa for hay or use of the crop (continued on Pace 4) DOINGS 4-H and FFA County tractor driving contest will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 2, at the Rappahannock High School athletic field. In case of rain, or if the ground should be wet, it will be postponed until April 9, same time, same place.

Pharmacists In Culpeper Render Hospital Service Tilt1 ; egistered pharmacists composing the management of the retail drug stores in Culpeper have rendered a generous and time consuming sendee to the new Culpeper Memorial Hospital. Aware of the need for good - pharmaceutical practice in general hospitals and the regulations governing their day to day operation, .these Culpeper pharmacists have come forward and voluntarily organized the hospital pharmacy in regard to its initial requirements and the professional pharmacists’ sen-ices needed in the future. This has involved meetings with medical staff members, hospital personnel and members within their own group. Having prepared the drug jkt for purchases and use by the hospital, the Culpeper pharmacists have unpacked, checked and placed hundreds of drug items on the shelf of the hospital drug room. At the present time Mr. Jack Gallagher and Mr. Marshall Gayheart, Jr. have been appointed by the Culpeper pharmacists to make these initial steps in organizing the drug department. This theyhave done most diligently and efficiently. This is a splendid example of the volunteer cooperation afforded by a professional group of people carded. Only the Mt. Salem £l Ladies race will be dropped. All races will start one hoiir later than^ formerly advertised- Post' entries will be welcomed. No entry fees for horses are required. The heavy-weight race, the Ben Venue, min. wt. 200 lbs., will be featured.

A part of the program was devoted to the value of performance records on each ewe; using thesfe records in selection of replacement ewes, etc. Remember? Did any of you pick up the idea and put the records to work ? Ry chance I read an editorial in the Feb. 19th issue of the Drovers Journal. "Records on Ewes Pay Dividends”. A Wisconsin farmer told a farm audience of his experience with record-keeping and selection in a flock of 200 ewes over the past half dozen years. Through this method of culling and selection he was able to achieve “steady and quite rapid improvement.” Average 120 day weights of single lambs increased from 59 pounds in 1951 to 83 pounds in 1957. The average 120 day weights of twin lambs were 54 pounds in 1951 and 73 pounds in 1957. What will your lambs weigh at 4 months of age? bor sure it is never too late to put such a program to work. Will be glad to help those intterested to set it up. njar 12.50 PER YEAR RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Date_ . NAME ...-.-.— R. F.

Reminders About Scholarships Teachers may be helpful to students planning to attend V. P. I. iTthey will call their attention to fhe following facts: 1. The student must be accepted for admission to V.P.I. before a scholarship application will be considered. 2. All scholarship a p p 1 i c ation blanks are distributed by the Director of Admissions upon request by the applicant after he has been accepted for admission. The forms are not available from any other sou rce. „3. Application blanks must be requested. Only those with good academic records and a definite need should be encouraged to apply. 4. In filing applications emphasis should be given to neatness, completeness and accuracy. To this list should be added promptness. Now, or within the next 90 days, is the time tofileapplications, not after May 15,as too mam' students do. 5. Test scores have been found to be one of the most reliable indications of scholastic ability Those who seek favorable consideration would do well to try to attain a good record as possible in both high school classes and on the entrance tests. . 6. With so many and such varied scholarships, the awarding of them become more complicated each year. It seems that the student must usually make his financial arrangements before he knows whether he will receive a scholarship or nor. Eventually the deadline for submitting applications mav hav e to be set at March 15th instead of May 15th to overcome this disadvantage. In the College of Agriculture there are 23 freshman scholarships, 21 for men and two for women. A proportionately smaller number of scholarships is available in the College as a whole The applicant docs have to specify any particular scholarship. He will be awarded the best one available, provided he meets the necessary 'requirements.

A Tip For Gormets Ever since Mr. and Mrs. Charles Estes, Mr. and Mrs. Lee Thornton and Job Estes entertained with a "Wild Game Dinner”, with all the trimmings, housewives in the county have been calling over the phones for recipes for preparing game. Wild meat has become quite the rage in Rappahannock, and many deep freezes have nice supplies of venison, quail, wild duck and squirrels. Said one housewife, "I want to use what I have from the 195J hunting soon, so X will have space for lots of game in I960. Having a deep freeze enables you to have game at any time during the year, not just in hunting season. It is wonderful.” Miss Anna Ruth Barnette. Rap pahannock Home "Demonstration Agent has been most cooperative ana has secured for County home makers "Famous Game Recipes” from the Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries. In it you will find instructions for preparing, in several ways, Wild Duck, Wild' Goose, Wild Turkey, Rabbit, Squirrel, Venison and many birdSL Rising temperatures arc bringing the bull-frogs to the edges of the many farm ponds in the bounty, , n-t their croakings are being heard all' around.

VA. U rick’s Day had come and gone and that they hadn’t planted their potatoes. They consoled themselves, however, with the fact that the heavy blanket of snow which has covered their gardens for many weeks has done a lot of good in many ways. Clyde did something for “cress” that Jenkins is posititve that the snow nothing else could do-—and that he was determined to cut every bunch he . could before he plowed. Billy Moffett was digging the last of the salsify and promising his mother to get busy cleaning off the asparagus bed. A peep over the fence of the Massie garden revealed the fact that the potato onions that have been in the family for five generatitons wei" making a wonderful showing. “Grandmotthcr- Holland gave Daddy the 'start' right after he was married in 18W, Mrs. W. H. Massie, Jr. said with pride. The question of when the ground was exactly ri,rht for plowing was much discussed byall the "garden minded”. Most of them agreed that it would be better in a few days . . . that it was a little wet. But Humpie Smoot with his tractor was busy getting his- mother s potato ground ready. “Mother always decides when she wants her garden plowed", he said, "and she always has good luck”. Mr. Willis Burke, who is acknowledged as something of an authority on gardening, hasn't put any seed in the ground yet, but hopes to do so the first of the week. Every year he tries to raise “something new”, but hasn’t decided just what he w'ill experiment with in 1960. Marshall Barber, his horses and plow are missing now' from the garden scene, much to the regret of many. For a number of years Marshall totok great pride in plowing the gardens of those who contend that "tractor plowing' 'is not good for the small garden. “I always try and leave the ground in good condition with the rows laid off," he would invariably say, when finishing a garden. Those he helped will not only miss having their work carefully done, but they will miss his cheerful songs as ho went about his daily task . . .

YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS 8v Rev r(yr t3. Har*von WASHINGTON—Coming water shortages require communities in the Potomac River Basin to consider now the need for a system of dams with an initial estimated cost ranging from $223,999,000 to $400,000,000, in the opinion of the Army Engineers. The dams, creating large reservoirs and, necessarily, flooding considerable areas of land in the process, would be built as Federal projects, but local cost-sharing would be required on formulas to be determined through more detailed studies of the relative ‘'local" and "general" benefits to be deiived from each project. At the direction of Congressional committees, the Army Engineers are engaged in a broad survey of the Potomac system from the standpoints of water supply and pollution abatement. They say preliminary conclusions subject to change, indicate the XXXJSXJCSOOSXSCXXXSaSSaOOaCX** Use Hoffman’s Easy Payment Plan Just Easy Tilling WITH THE LOW-COST J*"3 H.P. * FREESWINGING DEPTH BAR ASK FOR FREE I 1 DEMONSTRATION ] HOFFMAN Implement Service "Service When You Need It" Phone VAlley 5-2781 120 West Culpeper Street A\\\\VWCWC\VXWWl\%V« possible desirability of building 12 dams, with 10 other sites suggesting themselves as alternatesAlthough the reservoir requirements are based on predicted water supply requirements of the area in the year 2010—50 years from now—the Engineers say the building of new reservoirs should begin now and be completed within 15 years. To care for water and pollution abatement, assuming the communities also develop fully their own sewage-treatment systems, would require, an annual investment of $15,000,000 over the 15-year period, it is estimated, with the yearly figure going to $26,000,000 if flood-control and recreation features are included in the projects. Present thinking of the Engineers does not call for major new hydroelectric develops ment in the Potomac Basin, it has been stated. Where would the dams be located? Of particular interest to the 7th Congressional District would be these: 1. On Opequon Creek, to create a relatively long and narrow reservoir with a surface area of 1,900 acres, providing a new water source for the City of Winchester. 2. On the South Fork of the Shenandoah River, above Front Royal, to supply that area from an 1,850-acre reservoir. 3. On the Middle River in Augusta County, creating an irregularly-shaped three-pronged reservoir of 5,700 acres to give assured water supply to Staunton. Waynesboro and other communities. 4. On the North River above Bridgewater, with Harrisonburg benefitt;ng from the 3.100-acre reservoir. Among the alternate proposals, the Army Engineers suggest the possibility of a major impoundment on the Shenandoah River, with a dam in Clarke County creating a lake of 9,900 acres, in the event their recommendation for damming the Potomac above Great Falls is not followed. (This would be a modification of a Shenandoah River dam project which the Engineers put forward in a 1946 report at which time it was proposed to place the dam over the West Virginia line at Millville.) The Engineers contend that serious thinking about dam-building must be started at once throughout the Potomac River Basin, if water shortages are to be avoided in coming years.

They point out that controlled discharge from reservoirs can insure steady water .supplies to the nearby communities, as well as sufficient flow downstream to permit the natural purification processes to work on the effluent from sewage treatment plants. Flood control and recreational features can be built into the reservoirs at additional cost, tney say. In noting these suggestions of the Army Engineers, it should be emphasized: 1. They are based on preliminary studies and may come to Congress in substantially different form when the formal report is filed, many months in the future. 2. No money has been voted by Congress to build any of these suggested dams, and it is unlikely Congress will .nsis on voting money to build a particular project in the face of concerted local opposition. 3. Local communities benefitting may expect, fin some cases, to be tolled on for substantial financial commitments toward the cost of the projects. tHE PRINTER It may be sad, but still ’tis true, There’s one thing all us humans do, And that is, blame the printer. He does his best, without our help, For all we do is stand and yelp, Then cuss, and blame the printer. We write our manuscript by pen. To read it is bevond our ken, Yet we expect the printei To dope it out and get it right. We think not of his time or sight; If wrong—we blame the printer. We hold our stuff until the last, Then try to rush it through so fast The printer gets snowed under, But still we camp upon his trail, And prod him on with woeful tale, Or rant and roar like thunder. He shoots it through, the proof we get— Hell's bells! the job is not right yet. We chop that proof to splinters. It takes two days before he knows Just what each hieroglyphic shows, A dumb lot are those printers. The job’s delivered. Some relief!

Bruce Bowie helped us out on Tuesday, all day; Lucy Catherine Tuesday night. Wouldn’t it be a terrible world if we didn’t have friends?. I told Bruce when he walked in this morning it took me back ten years, but only in mind, certainly twit in time, only wish it could. Spring has at last “sprung ’— and don't anyone say the “sap has’nt riz" Goodness knows we are all certainly glad to see spring weather aiid heaven forbid the forecast for this week end of “snow”. Happy birthday this week to Stanish Riley. Miss Susan Latham wished him many happy returns wth a bag of jelly beans. She must like him an awful lot, because Susan and *her jelly beans are hard to part. Some of the boys and girls are home for their spring vacation. It sure is nice to have them. Maybe after we get our new industry, some of our young folks will stay home or come back home. If you readers have followed my Ramblings, you would know exactly who the “Virginia Gentleman from Michigan is. He wrote asking advise and I answered him in Ramblings. Stop and think i you'll remember. Agan I am indebted to Miss Ivy Bruce for some very nice and interesting clippings. They were on my desk Monday when I came in from Culpeper and Warrenton. The stores are geautiful in all their spring “finery.” Makes you feel good just to walk through them. Don’t forget the Point-to-Point Racesj Sunday at Thornton Hill! We Hope to meet all our friends there for a real good day of one of the oldest sports in Virginia. No bettting!—Just good friends, good horses and good food. William Inge—Flatttery is like perfume.

Save Hundreds of Dollars Now On Tractors, Field Harvesters, Balers and Other Items Gill Implement Co. INC. Warrenton, Virginia i ! i | . Farming Vital To Nation*8 Economy By Milton Gore We would like to discuss the importance of agriculture to our nation’s economy. Agriculture is really vital to America. As a matter of fact, agriculture it the biggest buyer, seller, and borrower in the United States. When farmers have the ready cash with which to make purchases, they buy farm supplies worth fourteen billion dollars each yeai. This does not include purchases of other than farm .supplies. The inventory of farmerowned machinery alone is greater than die total assets of the American steal industry. Agriculture’s equipment evaluation totals five times that of the auto indusry and this does not include land and livestock. We could go on with similar concrete examples of the importance of agriculture to our Nation’s economy. To begin with, although farmers make up only twelve per cent of our population, an additional twenty-four percent of our population is directly employed in the transportation, processing or other wise handling of farm commodities. This means that nation wide more rhar one-third of our population is directly dependent upon \ Watch and Clock Repairing e QUICK EXPERT SERVICE ? : COVERSTON’S WATCH SHOP \ Main Street FRONT ROYAL g jtxxxxxsoasxsacwacssoaoaooejcsoesfjootjuocxxjocxxxsaosjoesttacsa . agriculture for a livlihood. Now, to tie in one of our programs, Agricultural Conservation Program, which is called a “farm” program. Yet this seems to me to be no more correct than to call our defense program a program for soldiers, sailors and airmen. We have just finished our enrollment period under 1960 ACP. Most of the practices that can be approved have been approved and in the farmer’s hands, however, we are still trying to get new farms into the program. That is, farms that are not carrying out conservation practices under the program on their own, and I am sorry to say, we still have some in the county. As of today we have approximattely 178 farms which have already requested help in establishing conservation practices that are badly needed in Rappahannock County. t Jfmtmtl parlors H. C.
