G.hfae Donald, Rnfsident of the Northern Virginia Power Company, has announced that his company has filed a new rate schedule with the State Corporation Cbmmission of Virginia which will result in reducing the cost of electricity for house heating purposes. The formal filing of the new rate follows a conference with the Virginia Commission’s staff and provides that the new rate shall apply on and after October 1 of this year. Much of the future growth in the residential use of electricity is expected to come from the rapidly increasing acceptance of electricity as the most modern and most desirable means of heating homes. It i' to develop, encourage and expand this market that the new special low rate for house hearing has been filed. This rate will make substantial savings possible for the “allelectric home” owner. Rev. Farrar To Show Color Slides Rev.

The Election of your Community Committee and County Committee is important. The Committees, with the aid of your CountyOffice personnel will handle the County ASC Program for 1961. The ballots were mailed September 26, 1960 to all farmers on our mailing list. If any farmer did not receive a ballot please call the Rappahannock ASC Office. M. C. Gore, County Office Mgr. Chester G?;' h Wide Awake Chester Gap, once referred to as a sleey little community, sitting high atop a mountain peak in the Blue Ridge, between Warren and Rappahannock Counties, no longer fits the description. Since the opening of the post office there in I954 in the country store owned and operated by M. A. Greeley, the village has increased in population and rapidly spread over the mountain top. The community has organized a fire company and a cinderblock building for equipment, now stored in someone’s barn, is under construction. To date all work on the 52 by 62 foot structure has been done by volunteers. Efforts are being intensified to get the building under roof before cold weather, so that work on the inside can continue. Chester Gap also boasts several subdivisions and city folk seem to be clamoring for homesites. Right up to the line of the Shenandoah National Park, row after row of lots are marked with SOLD signs; Some lots have a mail box, notthing else; some a driveway; others a tent, a trailer. Still others have cottages or year-around homes alteady erected. Hopes are to build a Baptist Chi - ch with assistance from the Shiloh Baptist Association until it can become self-sustaining. At present Sunday School is held in a little mission there. T. B. Association To Elect Two Officers Because the President and Vice President of the Front Roval-Warr e n-Rappahannock Tuberculosis Association have both been forced to change residences due to business it is necessary that both of these offices be filled. It is also neces-ary that two Board members be elected to fill their unexpired teniis. A meeting will be held at 8 p.m. Thursday, September 29, I960 at 8 E. Jackson Street in Front Royal, Virginia. The1 meeting wtH be short with very little other business to be taken up. Immediately following the meeting of the Board, all members of the Christmas Seal Campaign and any interested Board members will meet to plan the 1961 Seal Campaign.

Rapp • Chats By W. fl. LYNE County Afent You Alfalfa producers, get this straight. Recommendations for Alfalfa weevil control sent you in August are recommendations and nothing more. Personnel with the Virginia Experiment Stations and or Extension Seijvice are not writers of, nor enforcers of, law. Our aim is to help you to help youself and in doing so, make ecommendations that will: (1) Not get you in trouble and (2) Help you control the problem, (in this case an insect). Whether you do or do not follow the recommendations is your business. BUT REMEMBER. What most of us do, or do not do, affects some one else. You, nor 1, can live in this world and get along we must consider not only ourselves.. . but others as well. AS A GROUP... Farmers are proud to produce quality food for mankind or quality feed for livestock, for consumpton as human food. AS AN INDIVIDUAL such is a worthy goal.production of food and feed that is not only high in quality from the standpoint of nutritive value but free of contamination as well. Established stands of Alfalfa should be treated with heptochlor fertilizer between now and October 15th. You men who seeded Alfalfa in early August, before the new recommendations came out, and had applied fertilizer at seeding, should use granular heptachlor alone between now and October 15th. While the recommendations sent you last month are based on limit-, ed research, it is the most dependable research now available. They should be followed for your own protection and in an effort to obtain the most satisfactory control of the Alfalfa weevil. If clarification of methods, materials, etc. are needed, let me hear from vou well before October 15th. ATTENTION FEEDER CALF PRODUCERS. 1.

I have to go back tomorrow.” Experts Predict A Brilliant Display Of Color In Park Foliage Experts are predicting a brilliant autumn display in Shenandoah Nar'onal Park, according to Superintendent R. Taylor Hoskins. Growi: g conditio: s have been ideal for tree and shrubs during the summer months with warm temperatures and plenty of moisture. If the Weather-nun will continue to bring these dry. sunny sparkling days and cool, crisp nights for ten more days. Nature will do the rest. However, a warm rainy spell or freezing nights, before October 10 could still upset the time schedule. That’s what 'happened last year when Virginia reco.ded one of the warmest and v. ,;te>t tall easons on record. Each leaf recognizes flu right conditions and starts forming a corky layer of cells, called an abscission layer, near the base of its stem. This layer cuts off the flow of food and moisture through the plant's tiny veins or vessels. The green chlorophvll stops producing food and is broken down by sunlight and cool temperatures. Then the coin's of the other substances, \vhich are present all along, begin to show through as the green chloronh II decomposes. Don’t let that old adage about Dck Frost painting the leaves bril!:a:;t hues fool you. Freezing tempi "’tures of any kind kill the leaves ; r ! blast the colors in a few hours. Nature’s bounties are evident •\i fall, in an abundant “mast” or crop of natural foods produced in the forest, along the Park's Skyline Drive. Wildlife species are at an.i slick. Don’t wait to take that dust trip of the year until the traffic ri':.;, bumper to bumper. Tlie red berries of the Dogwood. 'Hawthorne, and Mountain Ash arc at their best right now. You will have to hurry to beat the squirrels and chipmunks to the last of the Hazelnuts, Butternuts, and Chinquapin^ The Virginia Creeper, and Sumac are a wine red. Both white and purple asters are mixed with Goldenrod, Gentians, and White Snakeroot. The more than two hundred miles of well-kept Park trails are never crowded. That crisp mountain air makes you want to scale Stony Man or Hawksbill or Old Rag in order to meet autumn halfway. Superintendent Hoskins hopes that the Weather-man will cooperate to make your last visit of the year a pleasant one. When someone says, “Stop me if you’ve heard this one,” you are always tempted to ask, “How?” FOR THE BEST IN..*.

Palmer We hope that all of you who intend to vote will* take note of the fact that your respective Registrar closes his books thirty days prior to an election and use the few remaining days to register and vote in the coming elections. The Tunica, Mississippi Lions Club incorporated and borrowed enough money to purchase a movie theatre that was about to close for lack of patronage. The theatre will be operated exclusively for the charities of the club. It was noted with pride that almost immediately attendance improved to the point that the club now expects to greatly expand its work for the less fortunate in the area. Lions everywhere are on the march toward better communities. Rappahannock too. We are sure that not all of you have been approached for donations for new high school athletic uniforms so if you are in the future, it is well to bear in mind that any contribution, large or small, will be greatly appreciated as well as •needed. Flattery is the art of telling a person exactly what he thinks of himself. Beef Cow Culling Needed In County By W. H. Lyrur County Agent Owners of commercial cow herds need to increase and irnprove culling arid selection of their brood cows. Recent inspections of cowherds with inspection committees of the various feeder calf sales show there are too many off colored cows, old cows, and cows extremely late in calving. All prove costly. First of all (.one of the feeder calf sales accept cross-bred calves. By now most farmers realize organized marketing of well packaged articles are musts. Start planning now to get rid of those blue and strawberry faces . . . that is roans, black white if you sell through a feeder calf sale which usually is highly profitable ($10.00-$20.00 increase per head). Remember too cross-breeding is still a controversial issue. Research completed to date on this is limited in beef caftle. Personally, I question highly! its advantages to any phase of the beef cattle industry. Definitely cross breeding is deterimental to the calf sale consignor. Until more is known I cannot see how it can presently benefit the commercial steer producer as the grokvth rate and qual ity arc heritable factors. High quality calves (or steers) with the ability to make rapid efficient gains is possible and is being done; however thus far such has been conclusively tested only in animals of the.same breed. Producing desirable hybrids in the animal kingdom is more tedious and requires much more time than in the plant world. Most cows reach their production performance peak between 6 to 10 years of age. If you have a cow 12-14 years old still doing a top job remember she is exceptional when it comes to the number of replacement heifers to keep to go into the herd as matrons. Time has proven years ago that 10% of the total number of cows in the herd is a sound rule of thumb. In other words a farmer with a 50 cow herd which he wishes to maintain should hold back 8-10 of his best heifer calves this fall. When he gets this plan established, he will be selling in the fall five cull cows, 3-5 bred heifers and will keep 5 bred heifers to replace the five cows culled. In Rappahannock we sell grass in the form of beef—..mostly beef calves. Today the commercial cowman • who isn’t selling $100.00 worth of calf per cow in the herd ( not per calf sold ) had better start a herd adjustment plan. How??? After calves are sold, and before feeding time starts, he might have \*3to In keeping with today'* trend to smart appearance and harmonious decorotion, A*hley wood heaters meet the challengeavailable in 2 new decorator colors co&m/ f heaters SEE r'o~ as::i.gy c* mms MARTIN FURNITURE CO. 125 E.

If he doesn’t feel he can do this then sell the cows his observations tell him are not bred or will not calve until late. The latter should get rid of most of the cows holding down that $100 gross per cow average. Along with all of these known herd management tools we have had for years the calf producer who is really trying to improve his lot will enroll his herd in Virginia Beef Cattle Improvement Program. Get Records made available through BCIA, and then use them as the basis of culling and selection. Ask Ned Johnson, Larry Manwaring, Lucio Kilby and Piedmont Farm about what BCIA records have meant to them! Contrary to what some say the BCIA program emphasizes quality as much as it does rate of gain, which is as it should be_....you sell type and pounds..without either you are in trouble. The trained eye can see type, but the eye is not accurate in measuring growth rate. BCIA records of performance give the cowman an economical balance of these two selling items (type and pounds) by an individual cow (or bull) score called an index. Having indexes on the bull and cows is of no value unless the breeder uses them as culling and selection tools. Woodville News Miss Mattie Rector J. D. Fincham.

Price advances the last three weeks were a bounce-back from the bid drop in August, and prices will probably continue their seasonal down-trend during the next two oi three weeks. If you have hogs that are ready, sell them this week, but don’t sell them light. Hog numbers are still around 15 per cent under last year, and the seasonal decline wdll not offset a loss in grade or weight. If you sell feeder pigs, move them now before hog prices start to fall. Demand is high in commercial corn counties for pigs to salvage corn blown dow-n by Hurrican Dona. At graded feeder pig sales so far, pigs have been bringing $3.75 to $4 above regular market prices. Biggest demand has been for 60 to 00 pountf pigs but it will probably pay to unload lighter pigs quickly. For the longer pull, hog producers across the country are starting the build-up side of the production cycle the shortest on record. Hog numbers were up in 1959, down in 1960 and will be up again in 1961. The I960 spring pig crop was down 16 per cent from a year earlier but the fall crop, according to fanners intentions will be down only three per cent. In the ten corn belt states on September 1 intentions to farrow were reported three per cent above last year for September.November farrowings and four per cent above for December February farrowings. So by mid-summer of 1961, added hog numbers will begin depressing prices again. In Richmond last week hogs were bringing $17.50 to $18, with Southeast Virginia at $17.25 to $18. Western markets averaged $17.25 to $18 Baltimore, $18 to SI8.25 and Virginia Auctions averaged $17.25 for top hogs. BROILERS Broiler prices will probably be on the weak side for the next week or two with supplies about five per cent above last year and prices this week the same as a year ago. Prices should show a little strength from then on into late October when this year’s supplies drop closer to last year. By the See Us For Used Tractors And Other FARM EQUIPMENT Priced to Sell!

But from then on through December projected placements show steady increases over a year ago, reaching 10 to 14 per cent above by mid-November when prices last >ear hit a low qj, 14 cents. The increase keeps right on going to a high point of 19 per cent above last year by early December, so don’t look ror the price jump that came along at that time last year.
