Farmers shouldn’t necessarily abofidon it as a source of winter forajge in spite of insect pests; But should weigh the pros and cons carefully before plowing a product ve stand or making a new seeding. Perhaps you should ask yourself such questions as: (1) Are the soils on my farm suited to economical p'oduction of Alfalfa? (2) Do I hive sufficient Alfalfa acreage to justify purchase of a sprayer? (31 Is custom spray service available and what is the cost? (4) Since Alfalfa yields twice the hay per acre as any other hay mixture I can grow, will available land produce enough winter feed ? (5) W 11 granular heptachlor, or fertilizeC-heptachlor be approved in 1960-61 in controlling weevil or what will be recommended? Most of these questions the Boy Scout Troop 64 Holds Bake Sale The Boy Scouts cleared $13.30 at the bake sale held Saturday. Proceeds will go toward tents for the troop.

A proud and mighty bird, he is wont to fly where he will, unmindful of petty threats or opposition. His exalted position commands only respect. Yet this week the great bird was scorned by the vanquished. Ordered away by one he had formerly humbled, the bald eagle could do no more than tuck his head and turn back home. >:In Japan the forces of communism have once a^ain shown themselves for what they are: ruthless, international, deadly serious in their purpose of world conquest. The disbanded commitern has been replaced by machine even more efficient. Surely there is no one so naive as to think of communism as a political party. If you couldn’t do business with the one-man dictator that was Hitler, how much less can you do business with the pernicious hydra, communism? Events like the Jananese riots should draw stark realization that united, perhaps we can stand. And the bald eagle? A fallen summet, the bungled aftermath of a stricken U-2, Cuba gone Russian, and now the long walk back from Japan’s dosed door. The Eagle’s firm grasp seemed to have been lost when the hand of John Foster Dulles jivent limp. ; YOUR CONGRESSMAN. REPORTS L,\ Ret- Burr F. Harrison Washington—One of the major legislative items moving through the Congressional mill (luring the adjournment drive of Congress is a bill containing numerous amendments to the Social Security Act. In line with the usual practice of the House of Representatives in handling complex legislation arising in the Committee on Ways and Means, the bill was sent to the floor under a rule barring amendment. There were indications, though, that the Senate would want to change, and probably broaden, the controversial medical care provisions. As a matter ot tact, aitnougn the measure would make many changes in the social security law, only the medical benefit plan has attracted widespread discussion. In “grants-iin-aid” to the States to help pay the cost of State programs giving financial assistance to citizens 65 years of age and older who, although not completely with out resources as to be "on welfare”, are unable to pay for their hospital and other medical expenses. This plan was adopted, in committee after two presumably more expensive proposals had been rejected the Forand bill to finance njedical benefits through the social •jecurity system for citizens receiving social security payments by raising the Social security taxes, and the Eisenhower Arministration plan to finance medical care for the elderly through the general revenues of the Treasury by subsidization of private health insurance companies, or through insurance policies sold by the Government. (My own position has been that we should not launch any program of such magnitude, involving substantial new charges on the taxpayer, uncertain cost estimates and implications of socialized medicine, without much more careful and dispassionate study than has been possible in the current atmosphere of election-year legislating.) In briefest outline (the committee report on the bill comprises 336 pages), the States would be invited to prepare plaits of financial assistance to the medically indigent who are not “on welfare”. If these plans were approved by the Federal Government, the States would receive from the Federal Treasury (not from the Social Security TrustFund ) between 50 and 65 percent of the cost of the program. The estimated initial annual overall Federal contribution is $165 million, but this estimate is entirely based on a guess as to how many States go into the program, and how extensively. State plans could underwrite costs to eligible citizens of 65 and over for up to 120 days a year of care in a hospital; skilled nursinghome services; physicians’ services; hospital outpatient services; organized home-care services; privateduty nursing; therapeutic services; major dental treatment; laboratory and X-ray services up to $200 a year and prescribed drugs up to $200 a year. hlsewhere in the voluminous bill are six changes in the law which I sponsored, four of them as a result of facts developed in last winter’s hearings of the Subcommittee on Administration of the Social Security Laws, of which I have the honor to be chairman: 1. Removal of the age-50 eligibility requirement for social security disability benefits, anticipated to be of help to at least 250,000 citizens and their dependents. (Our subcommittee hearings developed that the totally disabled under 50 could be accorded eligibility without raising the existing progression of social security taxes.) 2. A 12-month trial work period to encourage the disabled to try to return to work, under which provision eligibility for disability benefits would be preserved while the CHARCOAL STEAKS CHICKEN IN-TH E-ROUGH Entrance to SKYLINE DRIVE Belle Boyd. RESTAURANT Front Royal, Va, disabled person was attempting to hold a job. 3. Elimination of a second 6month waiting period before benefits start for a disabled worker who regains his ability to hold employment and then becomes disabled again within a 5-year period. 4. Provision of benefits for survivors of workers who died before 1940fc with at least six quarters of coverage to their credit.a change Hillsdale DRIVE-IN THEATRE WASHINGTON VA. SHOW STARTS 7:30 P. M.

Ramblings From Rappahannock Dear Folks This letter is certainly going to be a conglomeration. I started writing it Sunr^iy. Today I am copying it and adding a little more so please just bear with me. First, I have heard of a very worthy person, Russell Clatteriuck, who certainly does need some help at this time. He has been in the hospital. He is at home now, but he has a hospital bill of over $2,500. He is willing to work and does so when he is able. I am sure some of you readers “would like to help him. No matter how small a donation, it will be greatly appreciated. You can send it to me at the News office 01 to the Washington Cash Store. All donations will be applied to his hospital bill. Today as I listened to a minister- conduct a funeral service, I never heard such raucous laughter coming from a church near the cemetery. It annoyed everyone and was terrible for the ones who had just lost someone dear to them. 1 am sure the people at the church did not realize a funeral was going on, because had they realized, 1 am sure they would not have been so loud. Saw Claude Cook In Culpeper today. He is spending the week at the Methodist Camp near Boston. The Parrish’s had the ' nicest open house Sunday. Everything was so pretty and the flowers were beautiful. We hate to see them leave. Mrs. W. C. Hall told me that she is expecting “Bucky” and a friend of his home before long. Bert Spalding expects to leave July 1 for Paris where she will be met by Bobbie and they will fly to Rome. Won’t those two have a time? May everything in the road reveal a brighter view; With everything of friendliness and happiness for you. Whereever you may linger, may you be the privileged guest. Enjoying food and drink, and all the comforts of the best. So, until next week. Folks, Stay happv, E. B. M. Rappahannock News Washington, Virginia Wednesday June 22. 1960 STOP!

About 300 years age when the colonists first explored this country, it is said that the topsoil averaged about nine inches in depth. In other wprds, we have lost nearly one-haft of our topsoil in three centuries. As further evidence of tfhe decline of our agricultural i£sources, at the time our country was settled, we are told that a squirrel could climb a tree in New England and hop from limb to limb and go all the way to the Gulf of Mexico without once setting foot to the ground. That’s how densely the land in these Uni, ted States was once covered with trees. This vegetation and root structure checked the rains and kept the soil from washing. But then our forefathers seeing the inexhaustible areas of land and the endless forests of trees, began to re-arrange things. As more and more people came to this country we cleared more and more land. Trees were cut, piled and burned. The land was farmed as long as it was productive without fertilizers, without any semblance of conservation, and when the land wore out we moved farther west and opened up new lands. This western movement continued until our country was populated from coast to coast. All the land was taken. We settled down.settled down to taking all we could from the soil and putting back very little if anything. Now we have less than three acres of cropland per person. This three acres of cropland per person is being steadily , reduced in two ways......one, by our heavy population increase which increases the number of persons who must'Share this fixed area of avail* able cropland by over seven thousand people every day, and second, by still further loss of this soil through erosion or improper treatment. I When we consider that we now have less than three acres of cropland from which each person in the United States must be fed and clothed, and when we consider how this small remainder is being hacked at from both ends, we begin to see why this business of conserving our agricultural resources is everybody’s business and not just something for the farmers to worry about. Our soil is the very foundation of our happiness, our prosperity, and our progress. We fought and won two great wars within the last forty years. Our victories were due in a large part to the food and fiber produced on the farms. Today American farmers are faced with the task of feeding an ever-increasing population and at the same time maintaining our national strength for the future.

Our continued world leadership and influence will depend largely upon how well our fanners, how well all our people as vitally interested stockholders, and how well the Congress as our governing body live up to our responsibility as stewards of the land. With wise management, our land can be kept productive to meet the growing needs of our people. Some land in this country has been cropped continuously for nearly 300 years and is still as good or better than before. Whether we own land or not, we depend upon the production of the soil for the necessities of life. That's why I say. that each of us has a vital concern in maintaining the productivity of our greatest natural resource. Poor soils mean poor living. Good soils mean good living. The Agricultural Conservation Program is promoting good living through better soils. The Agricultural Conservation Program assists in carrying out practices to conserve and build the soil. So, inclosing, let me say to you, Mr. Farmer, don’t let your acres shrink. And to you, the Mr. and Mrs. of business and profession, don’t let our farmers let our acres shrink. Let’s not any of us let any of our acres shrink. County Office Manager ASC M. C.
