Thornhill Among Highest “Technician Of The Month”, put out by the Virginia Artificial Breeding Association, shows Gordon Thornhill to be 4th high in the number of cows serviced during the month of August over the same month a year ago in Group 111 (local associations breeding less than 1300 cows in 1959). During August Mr. Thornhill serviced 51 cows representing a 50% increase over a year ago, and as evidence of his efficiency, he had 77.7% non returns (7.4 above the state average). It is gratifying to know our milk cow owners are increasing their effort to improve the breeding and production of their animals through the use of superior sires available through Mr. Thornhill. Service is available to every Rappahannock cow owner. Simply call Sperryville YUkon 7-3410. No membership fee is required. The breeding fee of $6.00 covers three services and is the same Itere—■a?elsewhere in the state. Harrison Comments On ADA Winchester, Va._Rep. Burr P. Harrison (D. Va.) made this comment on a rating of Congressional voting records published by Americans for Democratic Action: “I was glad to learn that the ADA again rated me 100 per cent wrong on the issues included in their tabulation. Several years ago, 1 was obliged to apologize to the citizens of my Congressional District for having voted in accordance with the views of this organization on but one out of 15 issues. I promised to try to do better and have managed to be 100 per cent wrong, in the ADA’s estimation, for several years now.” New And Renewing Subscribers New and renewing subscribers to Rappahannock News are Dolan Jenkins, Mildred Holmes, E.

Supervisors Increase Their Annual Salary I have been questioned by several people about the members of the County Board of Supervisors getting an increase in salaries for the fiscaJ year, June, 30 1960 to June 30, 1961. The Board members have increased their pay from $1,300 per year to $1,800 per year, an increase of $500 for the group. In addition mileage is paid. For each of the six members this amounts to $25 plus mileage per meeting. This was included in the proposed budget which was published in this newspaper and which was approved and adopted. According to the laws of tthe state, each member could draw as much as $600 per year.

Park Service To Celebrate 90th Campfire Day Superintendent R. Taylor Hoskins extends a cordial invitation to friends and neighbors of Shenandoah National Park to join in observance of the 90 th anniversary of the National Park idea. Special programs commemorating this event will be held at 8:30 p.m. Thursday, September 22, at the Big Meadows Lodge and 8:30 p.m. Friday, September 23 at SkvJand Recreation Hall. Origin of a concrete proposal to create National Parks is traced to a Montana lawyer, Cornelius Hedges, who was a member of the Washburn-Langford-Doane expedition which explored the Yellowstone region in 1870. This expedition found the fantastic tales they had heard about this area to be true and even discovered natural phenomena not previously reported. Continued on page four Another Large Bass.

H. Lyne, County Agent Physical tests on samples of ground limestone available to Rappahannock farmers from two sources show considerable difference as may be seen below: Sieve, or Percent Passing Screen size Sample 1 Sample 2 No. 10 99.7 100.0 No. 20 99.1 65.6 No. 60 78.0 33.9 No. 100 64.9 26.4 Since the availability and reaction rate of ground limestone in the soil is governed largely by its fineness it is obvious which of the above materials will do the farmer the most good in the shortest time. To quote from A Handbook of Agronomy, put out by the VPI Agronomy Department, “It is recommended that for general use limestones should be ground sufficiently fine so that 100% will pass a U.S. Standard 10-mesh screen and 50% will pass a U.S. 100mesh screen.” Chemically there is little difference. Analysis reports show Sample No. 1 to have a neutralizing value of 97.29% as compared to 94% for Sample No. 2. Reports are that prices spread on the land are the same for both sources. When one considers degree of fineness of the ground limestones and means of spreading, one would assume wind would cause a higher percentage of Sample 1 (or source 1) to drift to an adjoining field or farm. However, the sample shown your county agent was damp, (water tests show but 9.2 pounds more water per ton thamso called dry limestone) which prevented any drift in so far as the rye could detect. Over 400 Attend Open House At Hieh School Over 400 school patrons, and friends of education,l visited the Rappahannock; County High School on Sunday, September 18, when the Rappahannock County Education Association field Open House. A fine spirit of cooperation was evident, as teachers from all schools in the county assisted the faculty of the new school in fnaking visitors welcome and comfortable. Members of the junior and senior classes acted as guides. In every room of the- building the Rappahannock Garden Club gave colorful evidence of their sincere interest in the “all around” education of children. Lovely fall fowers in artistic arrangements delighted all who passed by..:._and a young student was heard to say with much pride, “The Garden Club is going to make us some bouquets that will last all winter” Is there a child who doesn’t swell with pride and joy, and is definitely a better child, when he, or she, has a big red apple or a beautiful flower to take to teacher? All teachers recognize this. Vying with the flower arrangements for praise and attention was rf-i spectacular arrangement of garden vegetables in the kitchen. “It is just beautiful!” a lady was heard to exclaim. All visitors were given drawings of the floor plan of the school, which had been made in the Business Department, and expressions of admiration were heard from all sides as friends of the school moved from room to room. The Science Room and Library were appealing to many. Refreshments were served in the consilient Cafeteria with counly teachers taking turns at the punch bowls. The cookies were made by the Home Economics students. and were delicious. Comments heard in the lovely central hall were most complimentary and it is safe to say that all went home with a feeling of pride in their new school.and a very strong conviction that it should be appreciated and taken care of by all connected with it. Members of the Rappahannock Garden Club who decorated the school for Open House were Mrs. James M. Settle Mrs. W. C. Hall, Mrs. William R. Williamson, Mrs. Charles Estes and Mrs. S. E. Hening. FIRE and RESCUE SQUAD NOTES Sperryville Fire Company answered a call Monday to Washington Apple Growers Cooperative where a motor was on fire. No damage was done to the building. Monday the Washington Rescue Squad was called to take a welfare patient to a hospital in Charlottesville.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS *, * PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING - At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered aa Second Claaa Mail at the Poet Office at Waahington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance).*2.50 PER YEAB Cew Slaughter Rising Moderately < )ne of the aspects of the fall cattle runs which will be watched with unusual interest is the trend in cow slaughter. This has been quite revealing of the build-up in beef cattle numbers in the past two years and now is reaching the point at which it could become important to the prices of lower grade beef in the next couple of years. Hie nub of the situation is that cow slaughter has been reduced sharply as cows were held back for another calf crop. It is believed by some cattle business observers that as many as‘ S mollion head that normally would have been culled are still in producing herds —or were as of January I this \ ear. 'That is round 20 per cent of total beef cow numbers. This trend is shown by cow slaughter figures. In 19SS federally inspected plants pnxessed 4.6 million cows, an 1 in 1939 only 3.K million. '1'he departure from normal represented here is shown by the fact that duiine 1934-37 an null cow slaughter was mcr 6 million head. I liese unusually low rates of slaughter relative to inventories would have resulted in unprecedented increases in cows on hand except for rhe fact that the number of heifers added to the herd has been unusually low, points out one observer. T hus, during the last three years of withholding rows Worn slaughter for one more calf crop, the average age of the national beet cow herd has increased. It stands to reason that- these older cows can’t be retainer indefinitely. So when the liquidation of them begins, it is likely to mean substantially increased cow slaughter and by the same token, cheaper prices on utility beef. "Illis will have a bearish effect on better beef, of course, just as the scarcity of utility beef the past two years has helped tin- better beef ($mmand a higher price. So far in I960 we are seeing a slight increase in cow slaughter. In the first six months of this year, the federally-inspected total was 1.983.000 head, compared with 1.808.000 head in the same six months last year.It is ‘estimated that in the third quarter of this year it will reach 1,075,000 head, compared with only 943,000 head a year ago. This would seem to be in line with the prediction that only a moderate increase in cow slaughter is to be expected this \ ear. Smokey Says: HOLD IT/WATCH THAT MATCH/ Il lnU« only onr iiinK li lo mix • He direful! Don’t Overlook Your Forestlands Your forest lands are too valuable to overlook challenged District Forrester, D. G. Wilfong, Jr. of the Virginia Division of Forestry. Wilfong said. “It does not make any difference of you own one acre or rule thousand acres, you have an investment you can't over look.” He proses his point further by IS years of experience in his work with the Virginia Division of Forestry. Land values continue To increase and forest land is land, no matter which way you look at it. Manv persons cannot see their forest for the open fields, cattle and horses block then view as if no monetary return could be received from trees. The District Forester stated that it is not good business to continue to underestimate forest land bv anv owner, even if a crop of trees i> not ready for a final harvest cut. To summarize his thoughts, one could s.iv, there is “green gold” in the woods awaiting the owner's attention. The Division of Forestry gives forestry assistance to over 300 land owners each month, and Wilfong hopes more of the Virginia forest landowners will take advantage of this assistance. ITie man who gets the greatest return from the dollar he invests, in the shortest time, generally is among those considered successful. a • • • Also the man ujio can produce a product better than his competitor's at a compaiable, or cheaper, price is usually the one who will stay in business longest.

Ike. By C. B. Palmer The Rappahannock Lions held their regular meeting Wednesday night, September 14 at Hampton Inn. The roll call revealed that there was! only one member absent. ITiere were several guests present, bringing the total attendance to the largest figure in several months. We feel that the delicious meals served by the management of Hampton Inn, are a big factor in increased attendance. The meeting was called to order by Lion President Wolf and several communications from International Headquarters were read and local recommendations made. We understand that the automobile which was given away by the Warrenton Lions Club, was in turn given to the Fauquier Hospital by the winner. The local lions are now cooperating with the hospital in giving this car away again. Those of you who intend to purchase one or more of the delicious fruit calces, please get your orders in early for we do not want any of you to be disappointed. We understand that orders are coming in rather sizeable numbers. "Would you prefer a local anesthetic?”. inquired the surgeon.

NATIONAL PARKS Continued from page one This land was all public domain and each man had the right to file on whatever part of the region he wished to claim. The explorations lasted about a month. On the evening of September 19, 1870, members of rhe part) were sitting around the campfire discussing what plan of action to follow in acquiring ownership of the area’s features in order that each would profit rhe Mr. Hedges then advanced the idea that “there ought to be no private ownership of any portion of that region, hut that the whole of it ought to he set apart as a great National Park, and that each one of us ought to make an effort to have this accomplished.” All members of the party, except one, thought this to be an outstanding idea. They returned home and devoted two years of intensive effort to get this idea accepted. They were rewarded in 1872 when Congress passed an act establishing Yellowstone as the first National Park in the United States and in the world. Thus was born a new conception of land use for the benefit and enjoyment of the American people. Since that historic campfire, the National Park idea has spread to many countries throughout the world and our own National Parks now number thirty.

Too many veterans and their dependents merely sign their names to correspondence, and names are not enough. Almost all of the 30 million names in VA’s master index file are duplicated. As might be expected, there are more than 300,000 Smiths and almost 200,000 Johnsons but most other names are duplicated scores of times. The \eteran’s claim number or “C-number” and his insurance number are his alone, the VA pointed out. Inclusion of these numbers in correspondence will insure prompt and efficient service, and save time and cost of additional correspondence. Washington News Mr. and Mrs. D. D.

EXTRA-EXTRA By Ed Have always heard that once printer’s ink gets in your blood, there’s no getting it out. Don t know about it being in my blood, but it is usually all over my face. * • • * Angus Green of the Orange Review dropped by to see us tonight (Tuesday). Don’t know when 1 ever enjoyed anything more, than shooting the breeze with him. He is a grand fellow and a friend in time of need. (He loaned me some of his help when I had mumps in the spring.) • * * * Well kids are off to college and quite a new experience for me, 1 must admit. First thing youknow I’ll be telling my age. look Uz to Fredericksburg Sunday to enroll at Mary Washington College. About the first person 1 ran into was Bill Lyne who with Mrs Lyne and David, had acwmpamed Peachey to school. Bill ably assisted us with luggage, boxes, etc. He was really having a fine time chat ORDER OF PUBLICATION notice of proposed COUNTY RECORDATION TAX UPON THE PROBATE OF WILLS OR GRANTS OF ADMINISTRATION. .AN ORDINANCE— (Section 58-67.1 of the Virginia Code as amended) The Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County, Virginia, at its regular meeting held at the County Court House in Washington, Virginia on September 7, 1960, directed its Clerk to advertise in the manner prescribed by law in the Rappahannock News, the following ORDINANCE which- will be proposed for passage by said Board at its next regular meeting to be held on Wednesday, October 5, I960 at ten o’clock a.m., to-wit: “BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County, Virginia that the following ORDINANCE be passed and ordained: that tne noaiu oi ouhcivi^.o of Rappahannock County doth impose a County recordation tax on all WILLS AND ADMINISTRATIONS which are admitted to probate and record, in an amount equal to one-third (Vo) of the amount of the State recordation tax collected for the State on the first recordation of each taxable instrument, provided no tax shall be imposed under this ordinance upon any instrument upon which the State recordatiap tax is fifty cents specifically; and provided further that where a Will or other instrument relates to property located partly in Rappahannock County and partly in another county or city, or in other counties or cities, the tax imposed under authority of this Ordinance shall be comupted only with respect to the property located in Rappahannock County. The County Tax on Wills and Administrations herein provided for shall be in addittion to the State Tax imposed by Sec. 58-66 of the Code of Virginia, and pursuant to Article 4, Sec. 58-67.1 of the Code of Virginia as amended by the Acts of 1960. ITe Clerk of the Circuit Court of Rappahannock County collecting the tax imposed under this Ordinance shall pay the same into the Treasury of Rappahannock County. The effective date of thi\L)finance shall be October 5, 1960. ting with everyone. I heard someone ask him where he was from. The reply, “I live up behind that biggest sycamore in Gid Brown Hollow.” It’s a fact! • • • • .Along with fall besides school, comes the ever changing scenery of the countryside. No where on earth is it more beautiful than in Rappahannock. (Come October 12 I will have experienced it for twenty years.) Oops! there goes my age again! Guess there’s just no way of getting around it. Me and Jack Benny. Anyway, already some of the maples are coloring and every gum tree has at least one red branck. Think the gum in front of Sam Riley’s is the first to announce autumn. It always has one colored limb earlier than any of the rest. Which brings to mind that the chinquepins will soon be ripe. For a restful day away from the toils of everyday living, try a little chinquepin hunting. It will do wonders for you. Apple harvest time in Rappahannock finds everyone busy. The pickers swarm over the trees like bees. The highway is kept hot with trucks transporting the lucious fruit from orchard to the packing houses and cold storages, where conveyors 9natch it up and roll it along to be graded and packed in fancy cartons or sent to processors for juice and apple sauce. Grimes, Red Delicious and Yorks are now being harvested. Nothing like a Rappahannock apple! Ask anyone who has ever eaten one. Bob Estes says he started making cider Friday. What a treat for the folks touring Rappahannock! • • • • Mr. Gene Scearce, in Culpeper, is no longer associated with Western Auto, but is operating Scearce Auto Supply at the same location, where he will handle about the same line of goods—the same old stand for over 17 years. Visit him soon. • • • • If you folks who get single wraps, (that is a pap£r trapped individually) don’t find them up to par, it’s because “Mr. Charlie” is busy these days overseeing work in the apple orchards; not because he’s too busy riding around in his new chevy. Bear with us, he’ll be back. Susan just can’t understand why "Mr. Charlie” is not here on Thursday mornings to help her “paint.” • • • • Open House at the new Rappahannock High School was most rewarding. The interest shown by everyone was very gratifying. Our faces should be red, but they are not, because you can’t be two places at once. Besides we had a very reliable agent, in the person of Mrs. Louemma Moffett, to cover the afternoon’s comings and goings. She most gratifyingly acted as our stand-in. * • • * One reason folks usually get in trouble is that trouble usually starts out being fun. Sperryville News Mrs. J. B. Johnson W. B.

Miss Schaffner said that under he 1960 amendments, approxinately 250,000 people.disabled workers under 50 years of age and certain of their dependents—are now eligible for social security benefits. Until now only those disabled workers between 50 and 65 and their dependents were eligible for monthly social security payments.

Such persons are urged to contact the social security office for complete information on how to claim these payments which can start with the month of November. Miss Schaffner pointed out that there are a number of disabled workers in Northern Virginia who are under the age of 50 and have never applied to ’nave their social security record frozen. These individuals should coptact the social security office at the first oppor tunity to inquire about their rights under the new amendments to the Social Security Act. ^ If you are interested in getting a general explanation of the provisions of the new law, telephone the social security office and ask for booklet number one.

Weekly Farm Price Outlook EGGS Virginia egg prices are due for another rise in the next week or so, as much as two cents more. State prices haven’t caught up with New York’s rise last week, and both New York and Virginia are short of large white eggs. In fact, Virginia egg prices ought to show strength for some time to come. The laying flock on September 1 was down four per cent from a year earlier and the potential laying flock was seven per cent less than a year ago. As old hen movement continues and fewer replacements are added, production ought to be six to seven per cent below last year by October.-November. There may be some braking action from consumers as retail egg prices continue to climb, but historically, consumers don’t react as much to changes in egg prices as FOR SALE—30 heavy hens, baking chickens.

The producer with plenty of replacement pullets on range is going g to have a choice to make pretty g soon between crowding his birds l because of high egg prices and sel- ’ ling off old hens at high hen prices. Leghorn-type old hens were bringing seven cents to 12 V2 cents ^ for one large lot last week. ^ Chicks set the last few months j indicate that replacement numbers ( will be back up to and perhaps a little above last year by December, but with the shortage earlier, total | number of layers is expected to be about five per cent below last year on January 1. This.means egg prices ought to be good at least through about j March. It also probably means that egg prices will be back down again in the fall of 1961. j The Virginia adjusted egg price , last week was 52 to 53 .for Grade A large and 421/2 t0 43 for mediums. New York was 54 to j 57 for large and 43 to 45% for mediums, with Rawleigh, N. C. " at 48 to 51 for large and 39 to 41for mediums. CORN l Corn prices have probably al- , leady taken their major harvest , drop, at least in Richmond and Eastern Virginia points. j As anticipated, the export market for early wet corn was not there this year and the Norfolk . market was pricing on the'basis ‘ of October deliveries. The September 1 production forecast is 4.2 billion bushels.. ...up two per cent from August 1 but four per cent less than last year. Last year, corn prices on the average in Virfginia dropped 10 or 11 cents from September 15 to October 15, but apparently this drop came earlier this year. In fact, corn prices took a little spurt last week reflecting good export demand a little later on. Hurricane Donna seems to have . ruined a good deal of early planted corn in Eastern Virginia, but most farmers seem to think they can harvest up to 90 per cent of later planted fields, although it will take longer and cost more. Best advice seems to be to get out and harvest what you can. Moisture added by Donna won’t hurt keeping qualities as much as r BIG DISCOUNTS on 1960 New Pont Lacs CLOSE PONTIAC Fh. VA Culpeper ► V*.

SOYBEANS It is a little early for new soyean price predictions but it is beinning to look like a good year to ave storage ready in case harvest rices sag.

Added to mat adage is deptemier 1 prospects for a crop three er cent higher than August. Add he anticipated carryover of old rop beans, and total available supilies come within one per cent of ast year, with support prices about he same. Soybean futures are not much bove storage costs, with November futures at $2.14%,, January at ;2.19 and March at $2.22. Export demand has been increasng every year for several years, nd looks good this year, but it is till early. There will be about the ame crop of cotton as last year, vhich will not help a sluggish oil narket. Local demand in Virginia should >e as good or better than last year.
