We sttaJt'forego the cozy and aatis£yiBg;facmula,of openingmeet reportage: the who-ranwhat-where - under -which -weather - conditions. Also, we shall shortcut telling you what a jolly time We had there —after by kind invitation of Mr. and Mrs. George E. Muth of “Stone Hairon ** This is what happened. After pushing off, we, the field, didn’t have time to exchange usual tales of unpreparedness before our Joint-Master, Jim Bill Fletcher, halted the pack at the foot of Fielding Mt. Here he produced, (so to speak, out of his sleeve,) for our incredulous admiration, two small boxes with tall, shining antenna rods. He gave one to the Whip, Jimmie Dodson, with instructions to keep hounds and huntsman under his surveillance at all times in order to report to the Master on the pack’s activities—in a word, keep in touch. The Huntsman, the hounds, and one vintaged foxhunter, Oliver Durant, showed marked lack of interest during a short on-the-spot demonstration of “intercom,” with several ship-to-shore “overs” and professional-sounding test phrases. The rest of the field was delightedly intrigued. As soon as Walkie-Talkies were pocketed by Master and Whip, hounds started impatiently up the precipitous mountainside. We fell in behind the Masters for the taxing climb through tangled woods to the ridge. When we conquered the top—that is just the way you and your horse feel upon arrival —the pack was well away, out of sight, out of sound. As our horses stood panting on the forest path along Fielding’s ridge, the Master unfurled his Walkie-Talkie. He clearly and confidently spoke to it: “Do you hear me? Do you hear me? Whip, where are you? Where are hounds? Over.” We were expectant, excited, silent. A tense few moments passed as the little box was held high; all eyes on it, all ears strained, all faces attentive. The antenna trembled and the box spoke, “‘Senores y Seworas, Hoy bebe Carta Blanca, la prima cerveza de Mexico.” Consternation spread over the Master’s face. He scowled at his Walkie-Talkie. “No, no, I don’t want to talk to Mexico. Jimmie, Jimmie, do you hear me? Speak to me! Over.” Again silence gripped us, interrupted only by • couple of short .sharp snorts from the horses.,Again the Mas- < ter held the fine shivering rod aloft _ to receive the message. Again crackling was heard as Voices became audible. “This is Pearl. How many fertilizer trucks can you spare? Mary, send Jo with three to Tholand’s bottom.” Joint-Master jack DeBergh’s eyes brightened, “Find out who Pearl and Mary are! What a come-hither voice! “Hello, who are you,' Peart? Who's Mary? Where are* you ? I'm on Fielding Mt.” “Hello ... we want our drivers, not you on Fielding Mt. We need Jo on a big fertilizer job up the Pike.” ' The whole field burst into chatter. We had made contact with the English-speaking world. Everyone had messages for Pearl and Mary. The horses stood patiently. Suddenly, the slightly querulous voice of Oliver Durant (who had stationed himhelf a short distance from the group in order to listen and watch for hounds), burst upon us. “Who the — are Pearl and Mary? ... I thought I heard Diamond and Blazer!” There was nothing for it now but to make proper contact! The masters turned resolutely and seriously to the Walkie-Talkie box. Jim Bill caught another crackle. Then came the longsought voice, “This is Jimmie the hounds . . . crackle, zizz . . . crackle.” "Yes, Jimmie, go on, go on. Over.” “This is Jimmie . . fiz . . . I’m lost . . .!” At this devastating moment, Oliver cried from his lookout, “Shut off that — thing - hounds are pulling down the west draw toward O’Bannon’s apple orchard . . . Diamond’s found . . . let's go!” Thanksgiving Dinner The Sperryville Methodist Church will have their annual Thanksgiving Dinner, November 22 at the Lee-H i g h w a y Hotel from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. The menu will consist of turkey and all the trimmings.

Bacon, land appraisal Expert, and the Board of Assessors consisting of D. D. Miller, 'F. V. Williams and Rodes Brown, have completed the General Reassessment of all parcels of Real Estate in Rappahannock County with the exception pf the town of Washington. | Mrs. Eva L. Smith, secretary, has typed 3 Districts of the new land book with 3 Districts regaining to be typed before the public hearing on the completed assessments. Notice of the taxpayer’s hearings will be published and posted in the near future. , ine Board of Assessors has a more difficult task of getting all Real Property assessed on a equal base than most people realize. First the Board considers the selling price of different properties through out the County from 1956 to 1961 and base their appraisal on a conservation Fair Market value, equalized with all other land in the same area. However, many factors must be considered. For example, a 212 acre farm well located on the Lee Highway with ^ mile road frontage and containing each land classification, may be appraised as follows: 50 acres, fully cleared, ready for tractor.$5000 50 acres, semi-cleared, for pasture only . $3000 60 acres, wooded land . $1250 50 acres, marsh land .... $ 250 12 acres, Road frontage (semi-cleared) . $3600 Total of land. $13,100 Dwelling . $12,000 Barn .. $ 4,000 Silo . $ 1,600 Total of buildings. $17,600 For the “fair market” value appraisal of all dwellings, consideration is given to the size, structure, number of rooms, basement, water, etc, - * -*• - In the appraial of farm buildings on the “fair market” basis, other factors may be considered. For example, a barn and silo that costs $25,000 to build on a 25 acre farm may have a small “fair market” value, because of the small number of animals titpt 25 acres can support; wherea, the same barn and silo on a 500 acre farm would have a far greater “fair market” value. If the total appraised value above is $30,700 the assessed R. Johnson Becomes Full-Time Warden Raymond M. Johnson of Woodville, who has been employed part time with the Virginia Division of Forestry since 1948, was given full time status November 1, as Chief Forest Warden for Rappahannock County. - In making the announcement last week, John Jackson, Piedmont District Forest Fire Chief, stated that Mr. Johnson’s duties include reforestation, fire suppression and control, timberland examination and marking, forestry management, disease spotting, and keeping fire trails in condition for fire service use. There are over 64,800 acres of privately owned timberland in Rappahannock. A two-way radio in his forest service truck enables Mr. Johnson to communicate with the Red Oak fire tower, other area wardens and the district office in Charlottesville. He work closely with William Vemam, State Forester, in Warrenton. Mr. Johnson is assisted when necessary by 16 local wardens and is closely associated with the six volunteer fire companies in this county. Rappahannock is one of the 16 counties comprising the Piedmont District. value under the present rate fixed by the Board of Supervisors is $6140 or 1/6 of appraied value.

Robert Jenkins, a farm worker, had loaded the truck with hay and left it in the shed while he went to turn out cattle. When he returned a little later to take the truck "tead of hay to the field to feed the animals, he discovered the hay in the loft and around the truck ablaze.

RAPPAHANNOCK*NEWS PUBLISHBa^ THUKSDAY MOiNINO At IfoshligtoiC Rappahannock Countfr, Virginia TSI^ MBS. SABAH C. LATHAM, as Second CMta Hail at the Post 0ff»c4 at Washington; Vi. fsbtSCiaPT10« (M IbfaaacsX___— 12.60 PBR YHaI Noah’s Ark. *. 1962 ; tgr Wanes V. Wftlmr On the cover of a contemporary magazine is the following scene: a mail and his wife, a lion and lioness, some peacocks, a hen and rooster and some other animals. It is very obvious that they are hi a fallout ihelter. What completes this deene is the cover’s caption. ^Noah's Ark, 1962”. Because of f^e uncertainty of these times and because of the secular order’s association of fallout shelters with Noah’s ark, let us consider this ancient story in the li«rht of the world situation. Numbers play an interesting role in the Bible. Three, for instance, is a number of completeness, perfection. If you were a Hebrew child in ancient Palestine listening to the story of Noah’s family, you would instinctively know that after hearing the chapters on Noah’s grandfather and greatgrandfather, the story of Noah would be even more exciting. Noah’s great-grandfather Enoch walked with God and was one of the two men in the Old Testament who did not die. The Bible states that he was taken directly by God without going to God by the normal procedure of death. Noah’s grandfather Methuselah approached the problem of death/ by seemingly outliving it. As an expression of being blessed by God he lived 963 years, the old est man in the Bible. These men make an interesting- trilogy. They all have a unique relationship with death, or the threat of death, and they each experience a different answer spiritually. Noah would be the third chapter in this story. Noah had a reputation of “walking with God”, as did his great-gradfather. His persistent, almost unsurpassed faith in God makes him a fitting climax. His reaction to the threat to civilization in his day has something to say to us as our world attempts to tightrope the swaying strand of peace. Inna Analyzes Noah's Gener tion In Matthew, Jesus gives us the following account of Noah’s generation. “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, not the Son, but the Father only. As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they did not know until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of man. Then two men will be in the field; one is taken and one is left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one is taken and one is left. Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.” When we think of Noah’s day we usually think of terrible sins THANK YOU, VOTERS I deeply appreciate the splendid support that I received in the November 6th election. Such an expression of confidence will always be remembered with humility and affection. I am proud to have been your candidate. Sincerely and gratefully, J. Kenneth Robinson being coramitteed in bis dag. You've probably heard tftirf interpretation over the radio or ih revival meetings. What is trronf with dating, drinking, Aha get* tihg married? Is JlsuS Saying that these <mpflnob.occflrr&hres are sin? I don’t bblieve Jestfs means this at all. When the Ne\$ Testament means gluttony, it says gluttony. When the New Testament means adultery, it it says adultery. Jesus gives us the key to the passage when He says, “Watch therefore,” or be prepared to meet your God. To dratnatite the people in Noah’s day as carousers, irresponsible party people who partied all day and night seven days a week is to me a misrepresentation of the text over gratification of physical appetites was not the basic problem in Noah’s day then what was? Jesus is saying the problem of our day and Noah’s day are the same. We are so busy with life’s routine, we are so busy keeping our families on schedule, we are so busy with our community projects that we are leaving God out of our lives. We do not make time for worship; we lack interest in the church’s mission on earth; we can’t seem to make it to the church’s business meetings. While the confused masses of our world reel from one crisis to another the people still refuse to come to the church’s worship service where they may reflect on the meaning of life as they relate their own lives to ultimate reality. This is overt rebellion against God. The impact of Jesus’s interpretation of Noah’s day is startling. If you do not put God first then you had just as well be an unseemly character of the worse deplorable kind, because you are going to be left. The coming of Jesus is spiritually what an atomic war is physically; it will be a catastrophic event for those who are unprepared. Jesus did not tell us what will light up the sky for humanity in the ’60’s—the glory of His coming or the flash of an atomic bomb. He did give us the information that is most important, for he told us to be prepared to meet our God. To forget God in your living is to neglect the essence of life. Dad took me out to a field and told me to plow it one day. He taught me the basic moves, such as breaking around the end op the line and then left. Did I ever leave some interesting angles while plowing across that field! I knew I was suppose to keep my eyes on a distant mark, but learning to keep my eyes on the furrow and on the distant mark in the same operation was something that took practice. The wise Christian lives as a wise plowman. He keeps his eyes on the furrow, but the next minute his eyes are on the distant mark. Living an active life in your community is commendable, but don’t neglect the distant mark. Watch therefore . . .

"the Lord saw inat the wickedness of mail well great in the earth, _. . . the Lord 'gras sorry that he had made man on the earth, . . . So the Lord said, I will blot out man driiam 1 have Created . . feat Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.” ! 1 Noah, aware of the eaiiutrophic event about to occur, followed God’s instruction and built the ark. A vessel about 450’ long, 75’ wide and 45’ high. It was three stories high with an opening on top and a door on the side. Can you imagine the reaction to Noah’s project? A large vessel being built on dry ground, seemingly without any thought of reaching the sea? Noah talking about being spared from a world wide disaster—almost as ridiculous as building a fallout shelter . . . right? Let’s tease Noah a little: “Hey, Noah, what’s the use of trying to live if the whole world is going to be destroyed ... right, folks? Noah, it’s no use, pal. When the bullet has got your number, that’s it. You’d just as well go with the rest of us . . . right, folks?” j Noah didn’t have this fatal! ism in his philosophy of life, i The Hebrew writer did not see ! meaningless chaos in the ca| tastrophe. He saw God dealing with a rotten society and though there was no hope for society as a whole, a Remnant was spared. This small minority, the salt of society, was sometimes spared for its own sake, sometimes for the sake of those who were to come after. But in either case God was at work, there was meaning in the current events of their day. It would be unwise for our generation to consider itself immune to the moral consciousness of a righteous God. Our generation is responsible for one of the most hideous crimes ever committed by man. The slaughter camps, through which our religious forefathers, the Jews, were herded during World War II makes fiction seem naive. To watch the documentation of this crime during that excellent movie Judgment at Numberg, is to see man at an historic low and Jo hear the audible sighs from the audience is to experience—corporate sorrow. I can’t leave Noah’s day with an air of smugness, my own generation makes me marvel at the depth of God’s patience. The Covenant Eclipses Despair God made a covenant with Noah. God’s token of faithfulness, the rainbow, stands to this day. Though the world was destroyed man had something to live for. God was the basis of life and hope. The significance of a covenant becomes clearer in God’s covenant with Abraham. In this covenant the children of God have a blessing to share with the whole world. Staying alive is a realistic part of the covenant. Suicide is not our prerequisite. God has given us life, let Him take our lives. This is God’s initiative, not ours. The covenant with Abraham continues to this day. If we take seriously the mission of God’s love for all people, we have a moral responsibility to do everything in our power to stay alive. What is expedient is not my responsibility. My responsibility is to declare the word of God which says, “You are not your own, you are bought with a price. So glorifv God in vour Body.” As a Christian you have a moral obligation to live and to desire to live because the hope of the world is within you. Jesus Christ is the new covenant, his church is the new Israel. Whether one, one million or a hundred million survive a nuclear war, the Christian’s commission is the same. We have no choice in this matter. We are to declare Pint «275 * Quart i‘440 AFF&EjXRCK '80 Proof Uirtf&Co^ North Carden, V*. the hope of the wwld. When I hear th| 8 iterances of despair eqtningfrotn my pqopl# | think of the.Oakie in western Oklahoma during the dust bowl era. His crops were gone; Ida cattle lirS starving to death.1 Then the familiar rumbling and twisting of a tornado comes slashing out of a tidal wave of dust The OSkie ind his family race for a storm cellar. A storm cellar in the southwest is a rectangular hole in the ground with earth heaped over the top . . . not unlike a fallout shelter. The twister comes and goes. The ragged family comes up out of their hole and looks upbnf a blurry pathos. The house is gone, the barn is gone, every-; thing is gofte but the waves of dust Did they give up and quit? No. An amazing number erf them did not give up and quit. When they came out of that hole in the ground, the scene could have been similar to Washington, D.C., after a blast. These Oakies did not have a government subsidy to carry them through. Their world was gone. But their courage and their reason for living was not gone. This fatalism, this attitude of despair is appaling. If you do not have the moral fiber to take the threat of an atomic war, I question your ability to take the threat of a common crisis such as an accident, sickness or death. People keep emphasizing that 98.000 were killed in Hiroshima. Why don't you emphasize the 200.000 who were in air raid shelters at that time and lived? A Japanese doctor above ground, tending to his duties in Hiroshima at the time of that blast has written an inspiring book that not only takes you through the horror of that experience but lifts you to a refreshing level concerning the nobility of man. If this man’s witness can shine through his crisis, so can yours. When we relate ourselves to the crisis events in our world with the understanding that God’s will is to be known to all ages surely we can not rule out a willingness to live The Old Testament course on T.V. each Saturday morning has attempted to underscore the Hebrew’s concrete concept of God in the current events of his day. From that course comes the following story. A submarine was submerged and unable to rise. It bad capsized and in spite of frantic efforts rescue was impossible. Eventually the only communication the outside world had with the submarine was the tapping against its surface. The last message slowly tapped out was “Is there any hope?” This is what people are asking today. From the word of God for the family of God let it be made clear that there is hope because God has acted in history. For each of us today let us underscore the fact that there is hope because God is acting in history. Our Father, may the steadiness of thy staff and the A Friendly WWW C. rtmitork uHai friendly words art a delight to Him” Proverbs 15:26B, (Moffatt) The little* story entitled Chadded may sound somewhat gruesome. However, in times like these we have Ho right to soft pedal the truth involved in the stofy. The crucifixion of JesuS was £ horrible HCt. If we have taken a real good look at the Cross we are aware of just ho# gruesome it #as. An almost endless line of people crowded before the church. Such an unusual sight aroused the curiosity of a preacher. After making several inquiries, he discovered that ho one really knew why the great crowd was seeking to get inside the church. He, too, joined the crowd and waited ill line to get inside. Eventually he made his way up the steps and down the aisle to the front of the church. The most amazing spectacle imaginable captured his attention. There chained to the pulpit of the great church was the Lord Jesus Christ! In astonishment the preacher asked: “Lord what is the meaning of this? Why are you chained to this pulpit?” The Lord replied sorrowfully: “My people have done this to me. Instead of following my command to go tell the good news of salvation, they have chained me to this pulpit and only those who are interested enough to come in ever hear about me.” “Go out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in."

Crason Anderson Turkey Breeders Why house turkey breeders? To fence out wild birds, to reduce feed requirements per turkey hen, and to reduce the loss of eggs oh range, says Virginia Polytechnic Institute Poultry Specialist R. H. Burtner. \ /f The loss of mash from range feeders, because of wi}£ birds, has bean estimated as high as 10 to 20 pounds per breeder. Housed turkeys need less feed for body heat and maintenance. Feed at four and one-half eents per pound is very expensive fuel compared to good housing says Burtner. '•! Eggs laid on the range are often lost. Field observations lead specialists to believe that "from 2 to 10 percent more eggs are lost on the range than in the house. What type of housing is need, ed? Research indicates that protecting breeding turkeys from falling weather nod. intense winds is sufficient. A minimum of insulation is needed in the roof to prevent sweating and help prevent damp litter. The VPI poultry department will help growers plan a house for their breeders, says Burtner.

Walter H. Faison local manager of the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company of Virginia said the Telstar relayed business machine type data across the Atlantic at the rate of 1,460,000 English words per minute. The error rate for this data system using Telstar communications satellite was one error in several million words. The “messages” for the experiment were generated in England by experimental equipment supplied from Bell Telephone Laboratories. The British transmitted the data signal from their earth station in Cornwall. The signal was beamed out 5700 miles over the Atlantic to Telstar, which amplified and retransmitted the message. The signal was picked up at the Bell System’s earth station in Andover, Maine. From Andover the information was sent by microwave relay to New York. Bell Laboratories engineers carried out the test from New York over facilities provided by the Long Lines Department of the AT&T Company. The 20-minute test demonstrated that Telstar can provide a data channel overseas with very high capacity — many times the combined capacity of other trans-Atlantic data facilities. The number of words sent in one minute was equivalent to three tiprt# m fifittW?, of MphSbdtiCally listed wbfda in an unabridged dictionary. - or fifteen fair-sized novels. - or about 2SO hours of speech St normal speed. Only the most modern of electronic digital computers wd'uld have the capacity to absorb the entire oiltput of the data channel. Business-type data ire transmitted in the form of bits. One bit is the yes-Or-no answer to S question. The answer can be represented in many Ways — by a bole in a Card or lack of a hole at that place, or by the pr* sence or absence of an electrical Charge Or pulse. The conditions are called “one" and “zero” respectively. A number or character of the alphabet can be represented by a series of thes* bits. The Telstsr test message was sent at the rate of 875,000 bits per second using an experimental data transmitter in England and a matching data receiver in New York. As a check, the information generated in England was also generated in New York where it was compared electronically with the received pattern to detact any errors in the transmission. The test was one in a series being carried out by the Long Lines department and Bell Laboratories to demonstrate the extent of Telstar’s data transmission capacity. Low, medium and high speed data systems that used conventional equipment have already been tested successfully. Bell Laboratories has participated also in the experimental high speed tests including an earlier transmission at the 875,000 bit rate to and from the Andover ground station only. Telstar has proved to be an excellant transmission medium for all types of data signals tested. Later in the month business machine manufacturers are to participate with the Bell System in additional tests of dati channels via Telstar. These will be designed to demonstrate the compatibility of the ekpsriment*1 satellite communication system with business machines. Rev. BrougHman 111 In Richmond Hospital r The Rev.

Annual Barbecue Sunday At Long Mountain Miss Helen Fuller entertained Sunday at her home on Long Mountain near Washington with her annual apple butter boiling and barbecue luncheon. Her 80-odd guests were mostly from the Washington, D. C. area with others frond California, Idaho and Texas. Both the apple butter and pork were cooked all bight oyer an open fire out of doors. The view from the mountain top of the surrounding countryside on the clear crisp day gave the appetites of all present an added zest for the locally grown pork and apples. Sunday overnight guests were Mrs. Verta Barnes and Mrs. Veronica Keating of Washington, D.C. and Mrs. Evie Chavor of Tampa, Fla. Mrs. Melvyn Douglas arrived from California on Friday and is spending this week as a guest of Miss Fuller. Tuesday night they were the dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Harris in Huntly. Better Environment Aids Poultry Profits An extensive attempt is being made in Virginia to bring about improved environments for poultry production, says Dr. C. E. Howes, head of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute poultry department. V Enough research has no# been done to justify the investment for such poultry house modifications. It has been shown, says Dr. Howes, that layers perform most efficiently at temperatures between 55 and 70 degree. Temperatures below 45 degrees will appreciably lower egg production and increase feed consumption. Research also shows that under improved conditions (of environment control) greater bird density will greatly increase producer income. The proper use of fans in an adequate building will usually result in 1% square feet per bird of floor space being adequate. In laying house cases studied, it appears that costs of modifications would be equalled by increased returns in less than two years. (Production was calculated at 18 dozen per year, net returns at 5 cents per dozen, and feed at 4 cents per pound.) In broiler production, research has shown that, beyond the normal brooding age, broilers will produce meat more efficiently at warm temperatures (75 degree) than at cooler ones (50 degree). Field data collected in Virginia on several million broilers demonstrate that feed conversion and carcass condemnations are poorer in colder months than in warmer months. Poor ventilation in the broiler house results in a reduction in feed consumption and a porbable decrease in feed conversion. Says Dr. Howes, “A properly ffiodified poultry house, capable of providing temperatures of 45 to 85 degree, relative humidity of 40 to 70 percent, proper air movement and adequate lighting can give under Virginia conditions: 6 to 8 percent better feed efficiency, appreciable reduction in condemnation, up to 3H percent better egg production, cut labor requirements for layers 14 to 20 percent, reduce fixed cost per production unit, and return money spent on modification in a few years.” LETTERHEADS ENVELOPES BUSINESS CARDS LETTERPRESS OR OFFSET CHURCH LEAFLETS BOOKLETS CLUB RULES & BY-LAWS STATEMENTS RULED FORMS BROCHURES ANY COLOR INKS Prompt Service —:— Dependable Quality Reasonable Prices INQUIRE AT ‘THE NEWS” OFFICE ...and...

The high income. farms also averaged more aCres of crops per man than those in the low income group. One of the most important ways to improve labor efficiency is to see there is ample productive work to be done by the available labor. Generally, the farm operator cannot afford to pay wageU demanded today and not fully use this labor. Quite often, says Reynolds, dairy farms and general farms selling milk get better than average labor efficiency. On these farms, labor can be kept ih« iir&L A Bilance between crops and pasture Will help farmers operate at capacity which wflf aid frt labo# efficiency. 't The economist says that fared operators shodld use rainy AT bad days to repair machinery. Building and fence repairs should be planned for the alack season. Good crop rotations will tend to improve labor efficiency because of the uniform labor requirements from year to year. He adds, “It is essential for farm operators tff determine their labor cost and continually plan ahead to obtain high labor efficiency. ' ' KNOW YOUR USS JOSEPH P. KENNEDY, JR.

Reynolds, agricultural economist at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. Ineffeciency in the use of farm labor increases labor costs, and lowers farm profits. t Figures from 101 Grade A ! dairy farms enrolled in the VPI ! Electronic Farm Account Program in 1961 show that about 20 percent of the total farm expense was attributed to labor. This did not include various “fringe benefits” such as a house to live in, a garden, medical expenses, milk, etc. On these farms, almost 15 percent of the total farm receipts were spent as wages for hired labor. Labor cost per day of productive work averaged $7 on these. Grade A dairy farms. This is three times greater than it was 10 years ago, says Reynolds. Labor cost is influenced greatly by the efficiency with which labor is used. Labor income is net farm income less a 5 percent charge on the average capital investment. The 101 dairy farms were divided into high income, medium income, and low income farms. Labor income averaged $9,115 on high income farms $2,693 on medium income farms and a loss of $3,504 on the low income farms.

Csoch General Hunting Prospect* j . G«od The 1962*63 general hunting season opens Monday to the mingled echoes of barking scatter guns and booming deer rifles. With few exceptions centra! Virginia prospects are goibd and local nimrods are experiencing itchy trigger fingers. Hunting hours are one-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset. In the space available we will attempt to give a run-down on the Old Dominion’s favorite upland game speCies. ' n u Quail Quail and rabbits vie for top billing in the small game catagory, but since quail prospects are best we will treat them first. There was a heavy carry-over of quail from last season, many coveys going into the breeding season at almost early season size. Many birds hunters feel are less inclined to pair off for that this is an unhealthy condition as quail in large coveys the mating season. Be that as It may, there was a good hatch and many young birds were in evidence all summer and fall. Prospects are good and the sea. son long. It remains open through February 15 in Louisa, Orange, Fluvanna, Albemarle and other counties east of the Blue Ridge. The daily bag limit is 8 and the season limit 125. Rabbits For the second season in a row the cottontail picture is spotty and the least encouraging of all upland game. In some areas game supplies are satisfactory, but in many others rabbits seem to be almost nonexistent. Explanations vary from fox and roaming dogs to over hunting. All take their toll, but our feeling is that the species is simply at a low ebb in a cycle that will revolve them to abundance again in a year or so. Under proper conditions rabbits can bounce back more quickly than most game species. In the meantime the rabbit hunter and his little beagles will have to make the best of it and look forward to better years. The limits are 6 a day and 75 a season. The season is open through January 31 and ironically, for the first time in many years, it is legal to hunt rabbits in the snow. Squirrels Squirrel hunting should be good wherever there are hardwoods containing a few den trees and a mast crop of hickory nuts and beech nuts. For the best sport we recommend still hunting with a 22 rifle, a wonderful form of hunting, often overlooked. The season runs through January 31 with a limit of 75 and a daily limit of 6. Deer The deer hunters never had it better. Herds are still on the increase and the coming season the most liberal in the modern history of Virginia deer hunting. The season remains open through January 5 and the hunter is permitted 2 deer, one of which may be a doe. Both sexes are legal throughout the season, but of course once a doe is bagged the sportsman becomes a buck only hunter the rest of the year. Turkey Turkey hunters are a breed all to themselves, but among them we note an air of cautious optimism. They guard their hunting plans and best cover like a family secret—ask one Mrs. Layton Falls of Warrenton. Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Johnson and Mrs. J. H. Johnson spent Saturday in Richmond with relatives.

The basic purpose of American Education Week is to make every American aware of the important role education plays in a democracy, and to help him realize that good schools and colleges are, to a very large degree, his personal responsibility. Every November, the week which includes Veterans Day is set aside as American Education Week by four national sponsors - the National Education Association, American Legion, National Congress of Parents and Teachers, and U.S. Office of Education. American Education Week grew out of the revelation during World War I that an alarming proportion of the American people were illiterate and physically unfit. NEA and the newly formed American Legion inaugurated AEW as part of their plan for attaining a program of education adequate to American needs for the twentieth century. The U. S. Office of Education became an AEW sponsor in 1922, and the National Congress of Parents and Teachers in 1938. In Rappahannock, the AEW observance will be an attempt to bring the public to the schools, and to bring the schools to the public. ■ — - Mrs. Miller Entertains Bridge Club Mrs. D. D.
