RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY J10RNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2861 BASIL C, BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered u Second Clue MmO at the Poet Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) $2.50 PER YEAR YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS Bv Ps*. Burr P. Harrison Washington—The House o f Representatives has passed and sent to the Senate an appropriation bill carrying nearly $4 billion for American agriculture. Even this large figure is $170 million less than President Eisenhower requested in his budget. While substantial amounts are provided m the bill for scientific lesearch on agricultural techniques and for marketing assistance to farmers, approximately threefourths of the money is allocated to price support, soil bank and surplus disposal programs, none of which has been successful in placing the average farmer on a sound economic footing. It IS no sec-ret, of course-, tnar net farm income in rhe United States has been on the downgrade for a number of years.a 24-percent reduction in eight years. Over the same period, we have spent nearly $26 billion in efforts to stabilize the agricultural economy $8 billion in price supports, $4.3 billion for the soil bank and $13.5 billion for overseas disposal of surpluses. And, iir the same time, farm production has increased 17 per cent. For the fiscal year beginning July 1, the House, on recommendation of its Appropriations Committee, voted $1.2 billion for price supports (under the euphemisticdesignation, “restoration of Capital impairment of the Commodity Credit Corp.”) It also voted $310 million for the conservation reserve of the soil bank and $1.4 billion for reimbursement of the Commor dity Credit Corp. for overseas and other disposal of surplus form commodities. As lone as present farm progrants are on the statute books, of course, the taxpayers, including farmers, may expect to pay for them through raxes. It is economic irony, though, that the great majority of individual fanners do not benefit from this heavy government spending on price supports and other largely ineffectual measures-contrived for their financial assistance. Neither has it been demonstrated that the farm economy as a whole has moved aity closer to long-term stability than it was eight yearn ago, or, for that matter, 25 years ago. Trie progression of annual appropriations for these devices is a mocking reminder of our ineffectiveness in the attempt to assure the farmer a reasonable return for his efforts in what we like to call our free-enterprise economy. Until we*summon the courage to break with this tradition of expensive tinkering, we sihall have to pay the bills. A comment in the House Appropirations Committee report on the Agricultur Appropriation Hill is arresting: "Many fail to realize that about half of the price support expenditures each year are- for such items as storage and handling, transportation, interest and administration. In fiscal year 1959, for example, storage, transportation, administrative and interest costs were 49 per cent of the total losses under the price support program. In 1959, storage and handling charges totaled $481.7 million. Storage charges for 1960 are estimated at $612 million.” We have noted that nearly $3 billion was written into the appropriation (bill for price supports, soil bank and overseas disposal. In contrast, the entire Agricultural Conservation (ACP), under which individual farmers are paid for certain soil-saving practices, is down for less than a tenth as much, and all the conservation, watershed protection and flood prevention, work of the Soil Conservation Service is covered for less than a twentieth as much. All agricultural research accounts for only a minor fraction of federal spending on agriculture. Incidentally, dunrng the House consideration of the appropriation bill, a parliamentary technicality was raised against the money item for the federal poultry inspection, program, and all money for this purpose was stricken from the bill. It is to be expected, however, that funds will be restored in the Senate.

Soil Testing At VPI Soil testing is one of the first steps to efficient farming, so says VV. H. Lyqe, county agent in Rappahannock. He points out that the Agronomy Department at VPI, which provides soil testing facilities for Virginia farmers, last year ran tests on 73,330 samples. In "”1959 Rappahannock farmers had 452 complete tests made and 29 samples tested for PH and lime. Lyne sayis that the 9oil test can help farmers determine lime and fertilizer needs. Tests run on samples submitted to the VPI laboratory are PH, calcium, magnesium, organic matter, phosphate and potash. He says i it takes well trained people to haindle soil tests accurately. The Soil Testing Laboratory in the Agrpnomy Department at VPI has wjell trained laboratory technicians, j supervisors and research advisors. Emmett D. Reynolds is laboratory supervisor and has been irr charge of the lab since its beginning in 1938. That year about 2,000 samples were run as compared to last year’s 73,330. Four other well tlrained technicians are employed full time and additional technicians are employed during the rush season. The Soil Testing Laboratory is administratively under the Agricultural Extension Service and W. \V. Lewis, Agronomist, keeps a close check op it.

Election — Election As early as 1840, when a political party promiseJ the voter “'Two Dollar^ a Day and Roast Beef,” the slojgan was ?s much a part of presidential election campaigns as the handshake and the stump. It’s la fitting arena for the slogan, which was once the battle cry of the Scots. The word comes from “slaugh”, meaning “army”, and ‘‘gairrrj”, or “call.” The! voters of 1840 took up the battle ifor two dollars, conceding that “Yan, Van (Martin Van Buren) is a Used-up Man.” They gave their votes to “Tippecanoe and Tyler Too”.William Henry Harriscin, the hero of the Indian battle of Tippecanoe, and his run-ning mate, John Tyler. In 1864, when Lincoln was running for a second term, the Union was warned: “Don’t swap horses in the Middle of the Stream.” The cry was to echo 80 years later, when Franklin D. Roosevelt Won a fourth term in the dark years of World War II. Horace Greeley thundered, "Turn the Rascals Out” in 1872, * but Grant held the presidency for another term. The country wasn’t ready for "The Plumed Knight,” as James G. Blaine was called, in 1876, and the election went to Rutherford B. Hayes. Blainje was back in 1884. But he had the misfortune of being labeled an opponent of ‘‘Rum, Romanism and Rebellion.” The Catholics turned against him and helped elect Grover Cleveland. William McKinley promised "The Pull Dinner Pail” in 1900, setting a precedent for Hoover’s later pledge of "A Chicken in "Every PotJ a Car in Every Garage.” In 1916 the country re-elected Woodrqw Wilson with the explanation, “He Kept Us Out of War.” | Five months later the U. S. was in war. When the next election rolled airound, the voter wanted “Normalcy” and Warren G. Harding;. In 1924 the electorate decided to “Keep Cool with Coolidge”. By 1932 they were ready for a ‘‘New Deal”, aind the “Forgotten Man” gave his:Vote to FDR. More recently some people thought |"We Need Adali Badly,” but the elections of 1952 and 1956 proved tjhat more people like Ike. What will the slogans be this year? STOP!

Ramhlings From Rappahannock Dear Folks Well one thing for sure I am traveling on Monday these days, ooth Culpeper and Front Royri, but it certainly does give me a nice long weekend at home—if there just wasn’t so much to do in the house. So far as I can find out the mayor and her council have not filed for re-election. The date slipped up on them before they realized. They have to file 60 days before the election June 14, so it shall be a write-in vote. Have not heard of anyone else running, have you? At last the hydrant on the corner of Gay Street has been fixed. All of that precious water lost. The repair part was lost in the mail. Nobody’s fault, goodness knows Marty tried hard enough. Mary Latham dropped by to see us today. She hadn’t been around for a long time. Found out that this is Latham birthday week, congratulations to Mary, Sarah and Sally. Listen you ladies, I understand that things are not going* very fast at the rummage sale and they do have some nice things. Weaver's in Front Royal sent them some lovely and useful articles. We are having a storm this afternoon. Heidi is sitting'on my lap at the desk..scared to death. Thank goodness Mr. Butler did lots of planting in the garden yesterday. We did have radishes Saturday for the fust time; real good and hot. Well, Stew and Evie.vvill be home tomorrow for about two.weeks. This last good-bye is going to be awful, j Formosa is a long way away, and tw0 years a hundred, but they 111 enjoy it and we’ll love hearing jthem tell of their travels and experiences. Frances Bradford is really doing it up..Flint Hill bridge club last night and tonight Frances and Ixmise Easthajm are having the Washington club and additional guests. j The laugh of the year Sarah sent Elizabeth over to Mary Latham's to borrow a dress that would make Liz lrxrk 45 in the senior play.

Following are some facts which should be considered before advising the use of granular herbicides: 1. Cost of granular herbicides ... Granular herbicides are advertised as being cheaper than sprays. In mest cases, a band application of the granular formulation is being compared to a broadcast application of spray. Actually, the most of granular formulations is between 1/4 ami ^3 more than the equivalent as a spray formulation. 2. Soil preparation- Smooth seedbed preparation is absolutely necessary for pood coverage with granules. evi n more important than the sprays. In general, about Ys more chemical is suggested where granules are used., to overcome some of the effects of poor seedbed preparation. 3. Rainfall requirements .... Granular formulations in general requir/* more moisture than do sprays to move the weed killer from the granule to the weed seed germinating zone where it kills the weed. Weed control with granules may be less sucessful when rainfall after application is light or erratic. 4. Activity of the herbicideGranular herbicides may last longer than liquids, thus longer residual weed control. In some cases the , chemical is released so slowly that a high enough concentration does not occur to kill the weeds. This has been observ ed in regard to granular Cl PC on large chick weed plants. In other cases the rate of ap plication can be reduced due'to the longer residual activity of the*granular form. 5. Convenience- Granular herbicides are already mixed, ready to use. There is no chance of error in mixing- just apply the correct number of pounds per acre. 6. Cost of equipment- Granular applicators for over the row band treatment behind the planter probably cost less than spray equipment. A spraver would have other uses throughout the year and could be WANTED TO BUY— Mountain land; mountain top preferred with good views. Write Box 38, Washington, Va.

With equipment available to date, it has been rather difficult to adjust these spreaders for uniform, precise applications. Sprayers are easier to calibrate. 8. Volume- Weight considerations- In general, granule formulations weigh less, are easier to haul and handle, and there is less weight on planting equipment. With higher rate per application of low concentration materials, the difference between the granules and water sprays becomes slight. 9. Granular herbicides can be seen on the soil surface after application, thereby reducing the possibility of slips during application. 10. Less contact injury- The biggest advantage of granular herbicides is on crops where injurious liquid contact would occur in using spray applications. This is. especially true in nursery and vegetable crops. As far as weed control in corn is concerned, trials have indicated that it would require 3 pounds 2, 4-D (acid equivalent) per acre in ill- granular formulation to equal 1 V2 pounds of the ester formulation applied as a spray. With simazine it requires about pounds of the granular formulation (active ingredient) per acre to equal 1 *2 pounds when applied as a spray. Apply the granules directly behind the planter. Have the seed bad smooth and compact to insure good coverage. Calibrate thoroughly, to insure the application of the proper ration of the chemical. ►TvesTOTcw/i rim r> I MADISON LIVESTOCK MARKET Madison Mills, Va.
