VA. STATE LISUAH? Richmond 19, va. 10c Copy WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1964 SUBSCRIPTION $2.50 PER YEAR (In Advance) C. E. Johnson, Jr. with a portion of the 1,500 pounds of chestnuts which he will harvest from the 80 trees on his farm. The nuts are spread out on wire cloth to dry. The Johnsons also have a few pecans, English walnuts and hazel nuts on the farm. Johnsons Harvest Chestnuts If you happen to visit Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Johnson, Jr. in Sperryville you are liable to find them down on their knees. Don’t be alarmed, for they are just trying to beat the ground mice and squirrels to the chestnut trees. The Johnson's have 80 chest nut trees from which they harvest about 1,500 pounds of nuts each year. The trees are a cross of the old American chestnut with a blight resistant Chinese strain. They were planted in 1948 and are the Nanking and Abundance varie tyMr. Johnson says he sprays the trees in July for Japanese beetles, few of which have been around the last couple of years, and in August the trees are given three sprayings for chestnut worm beetles. Chestnuts grow in burrs much like that of the, chinque pin, though much larger and each burr usually contains three nuts. Occasionally there are only one or two nuts in a burr. As they mature the nuts fall to the ground and must be picked up each day. They are spread out on wire cloth to dry and then packaged in plastic pound bags. The nuts are marketed through local stores and fruit stands. Chestnuts are still rare in this section of the country since a blight struck the trees beginning in the 1890’s. It came from China at that time on nursery stock and by 1904 it reached from Maine to Florfc da and from Illinois to the Carolinas. It spread at the Vate of 25 miles a year and reached its limit in the late 1930’s. Chestnut wood was used for furniture, fence rails, tanning mine props, utility poles, rail road ties and houses for %it resisted decay and took gibe well for veneer. The Johnsons at one time had 150 trees but destroyed some for they find it increasingly hard to get the nuts harvested because most labor at this time is busy with the apple harvest. Rummage Sale The Flint Hill Home Demonstration Club will have a Rummage Sale at Bradford’s store Saturday, October 10 starting at 10:00 a.m. Benefit of Student Loan Funds. The Ladies of Chester Gap will have a chicken and ham supper at the Chester Gap Fire Hall Saturday night, October 10 startirig at 5 o'clock Adults, $1.25, children $.60.

W*K»^igaqaooaooBgBot«» A Book To Read Bjr Clarence Wegener The concept that a professor la ah absent-minded, Impractical fellow, though untrue in the main. Is handed down from one generation to another. Per haps the reason whv the Idea Is cherished by us is because we unconsciously envy a human being who can show such Indifference to our unsatisfying but constant preoccupation with dollar chasing and self-aggrandizement. Did you know that In addition to the Innumerable Jokes about professors who go about with their minds In the clouds there Is a charming novel dealing with a retired college professor who, against his' will, comes wide awake— and learns to like it? Nobody suspected that old Professor Gotthold Klttguss, who had neither wife nor child would ever be Jarred loose from bin calculations and researches of the Book of the Revelation. But the day came when Rosemarie, his goddaughter, appealed for help. The story of all the exciting things that happened when the Professor responded to that Sppeal is delightfully told In AN OLD HEART GOES AJOURNEYING, by Hans Fallada; illustrated by George Salter (Simon and Schuster, N. Y„ 1936). Fallada Is a surprisingly *06d writer. In this gay, winsome novel, with Its scenes laid in the Germany directly prWf to World War I, he offers more than a few hours of diversion. He acquaints the realtor with a medley of unforgettable characters—some lovable, some despicable, SsfWRffi! are occasional philosophical comment* on life that enrich the book for the contemplative. This book, which can be borrowed from the Rappahannock County High School Library, is one of those books which we so often wish for but too seldom find—a book we can read for sheer pleasure, and re upon finishing it discover has left us a more under Rapp-Chats ] ByW.RLyne W. H. Daughtrey, Director of the V.P.I. Extension Service, announced by letter of! October 5th that: "No samples of forage, postmarked later than 12:00 midnight, October 31, 1964, will be tested by the Virginia Department of Agriculture in cooperation wltl V.P.I. "Only samples of Alfalfa, or Alfalfa - grass mixtures will be accepted for testing between now and this final date. The primary reason for testing program during 1964 was to determine the extent and levels of pesticide contamination of milk and dairy cattle forage. About 1000 forage samples have been tested and results summarized. The main reason for continuing testing is to provide individual producers with results on their 1964 forage. Those producers who have not had their forage tested and have a question about the status of their forages can get their forage tested through this program, provided their samples are in by October 31st. In conclusion Mr. Daughtrey stated: "It will take approximately three (3) months to complete tests on all samples now on hand and anticipated by October 31st." Order of testing will be as originally planned. Feeder Cattle to Market?

Some are beyond his control..others are the result of his own making. But, if he understands them, he grows accustomed to accepting their results.

TABLE IN THE ROUND—An old table can be transformed into an attractive piece of furniture for your living room with a floor-length cotton skirt. Here the cover is coordinated in color with the window curtains and trimmed with the same Conso cotton ball fringe. The Table Takes A Skirt The decorative table cover—long, fancy, and topping a circular table—is back in style. Unlike its Victorian predecessors which were really elaborate dust-catchers, the modern version is as practical as it is elegant. According to the National Cotton Council, you can stitch up a fancy skirt for your table that will be easy to keep fresh and new. Choose a colorful cotton fabric and edge it with a decorative trim. A gay cotton cover can transform the oldest, least attractive table into an important and useful piece of furniture.

From The dtlome Agent*s Pen By Doris Daugherty If a carpet salesman asked you this question, he probably wouldn’t be talking about a current dance craze. More likely, he would just be discuss ing one of the many texture styles now available in carpets and rugs. Texture plays a big role in home furnishings, and rank with color in establishing the •mood" of a room, or emphasizing the style in which a room is decorated. Like color, texture has become so varied that you have W«Mfb*ce in da* pets and rugs. Besides the •twist" . .which simply means that strands of pile yarns have been twisted together for a special texture effect. . you can choose from a number of other styles. Here are some of the most common types: Cut pile .. This texture is a familiar one. Straight cut 2nd F-A-L-L FEEDER CATTLE SALE — at — MADISON LIVESTOCK MARKET, INC. Madison Mills, Va.

Dial WH 8-5441 MADISON LIVESTOCK MARKET, INC Madison Mills, Va. TeL Orange 7811 yarns form an even pile surface especially luxurious when the pile is deep and thick. This velvety texture is often described as "plush pile." Looped pile.. Instead of be* ing cut, surface yarns are looped for a texture that may be long and shaggy or low and dense, depending on the style of the carpet. Either looped or cut pile yarns may be twisted, and many carpets and rugs today have a combination of cutand-uncut (or cut-and-looped) pile yarns. Within these broad categories of cut pile and looped pile, there are variations, such as high-low textures, loops arranged for a “ridged or “treebark” effect, combina. tions of "hard twist” and "soft twist” cut yarns, loops designed to form a pattern in the textured surface. “Scroll” or “sculptured" patterns may also be seen in textured surfaces. Generally these patterns, together with solid colorncut pile, 'are thfl most formal looking carpet. 4 types and lend themselves tq elegant furnishings. Twist textures, loops, or shaggy uncut yarns are fre-r quently used with informal furnishings. In many smartly styled contemporary rooms a definite heavy texture Is chosen for the carpet to complement smooth furniture finishes and sleek fabrics. Special texture effects are sometimes achieved by “carving” . . a process by which skilled craftsmen using electric hand clippers carve designs into thick plus pile. Another is “random-shearing, where some of the looped yarns are sheared to form a random cut and looped texture. When you select texture, you will, of course, pick a carpet you like from the standpoint of appearance. But in most cases you will also give some thought to practicality of a carpet or rug texture. Carpets with a definite texture hold their appearance well under constant traffic. For areas in daily use, it’s best to choose a well constructed dense c%^-pet with a tight looped, tight-twist or combined cut and opped texture, or with an expecially dense cut pile texture. These carpets with texture interest are less likely to show ■’shading” than a solid color, plain “plush” pile. Shad ing is not a defect, in fact, it is often considered desirable, since it produces an interesting light effect on a solidcolor carpet. It simply means that light is reflected in varying ways as carpet tufts are bent under pressure as is true of all pile fabrics. So choose your carpet and rug textures from the dual standpoint of function and beau ty -- and add the “third dimension” of texture of your home decoratiiur. _ nomemaking Hints It takes 6 medium-size apples to make a 9 inch apple pie.

Paper Publishes Notes On Native Here A North Carolina newspaper recently published an interview with the Rev. S. L. Morgan, retired Baptist minister, a resident in the Baptist Home in Hamilton, N.C. Mr. Morgan, observing his 93rd birthday said“ I was born just under the Skyline Drive near Sperryville. In my teens we moved to our permanent home ten miles east, in Culpeper County. Always I saw the sun set behind the glorious Blue Ridge their majesty 20 miles awaya great force in shaping my character”. He further recalled "Some months ago I called at the home of Mayor Davis of the town of Washington , Va. She had been acclaimed nationally as the popular woman mayor of the smallest Washington in the United States to have a Mayor and I wanted to assure her I deeply believe women are quite the equal of men. As a pastor I believed it so fully that in all my later pastorates my boards of deacons always included some outstanding women-I think it likely some of now living will see the first woman President of the United States.....From raw visit to ^Maycrta^T^y!88^ o miles to see the deserted Mt. Salem Baptist Church where I first went to Sunday School as a tiny lad. I recalled an epochal event. It | SEE US FOR * CHRYSLER - PLYMOUTH INTERNATIONAL j. RUSSELL BROS., INC. U. S. HIGHWAY 522 FLINT HILL, VA. PHONE 6754646 was Sundav. July 3. 1881. My brother and I heard men sitting on .the big flat rock in front of the church talking excitedly of the assassination of President Garfield in Washington the day before. The news had just seeped through from man to man/’ “ From this home my brother and I heard the call to preach and from our rural schools, went away to graduate from Richmond College and Crozer Seminary in Chester, Pa. We always sat together, using the same books.*’ In addition to serving in the North Carolina Baptist church for forty years, Mr. Morgan has written thousands of treatises and articles for hundreds of periodicals across the .country, several with circulation figues near the million figure. His correspondence, carefully preserved, counts in the thousands of pieces. Mr Morgan was recently a recipient of a bushel of apples from a local orchardist which he shared with the other residents of the Home. A letter of appreciation signed by the various men and women expressed an interest in the crops and other industry of the place "which we are told is an area of the loveliest natural scenery to be found anywhere". It is quite evident that Mr. Morgan is an ardent admirer of his native county. He further stated "I t i s a comfort on my 93rd birthday to reflect that something I've written may go on doing good after I’m in heaven. So may each of us go on helping others at least by the influence of the words and deeds given out while we live”. Park Reports On Foliage Colors Even though cool, rainy weather during most of last week may have slowed fall color changes in Shenandoah National Park to some degree, definite signs of the annual transformation are becoming increasingly more visible, Superintendent R. Taylor Hoskins indicated today. By next weekend the bright flashes of fall foliage should light up the slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains within full view of those traveling SkyHine... Drive, although^ it is noi expected that the full brilliance will have been reached at that time, according to Hoskins. Recalling that during the weekend of October 15-16 last year there were more than 80,000 visits to the Park, Hoskins suggested that those who are able to travel to the Park during the week will find less traffic and accommodations easier to find. By districts the color situation as of Monday was as follows: North (Froht Royal to U. S. 211) - Becoming more noticeable daily are the yellowing of the oaks and hickories, intermixed with the brilliant red of the Virginia Creeper and dogwood.

Hospital Has Record No. Patients New records were set at the University of Virginia Hospital and clinics for the year ended June 30, 1964, during which persons came from every Virginia locality for treatment and care at the medical center. The total number of patients hospitalized here during the 12-month period rose to 16,744, an increase of nearly 700 over the previous year. The average daily census for the hospital was 440, a new record, and a total of 160,933 days care were provided during the year, also a record. The hospital’s annual statistical report shows that the out-patient clinics’ total number of visits rose to 94,256— an increase of more than 4,000 over the previous year. Five years ago (1958-59) this figure was 83,815; ten years ago (1953-54) it was 70,064. A total of 5,744 major operations were performed during the year, nearly 1,300 more than five years ago.

We only know how we miss him As the years come and go. God gave us strength to bear 1t And courage to meet the blow. But what it meant to lose him Only those who have lost will know. Mrs. George Payne and children Inventory Being Planned in State The most comprehensive inventory of Virginia wildlife resources ever attempted will get underway this fall, according to Chester F. Phelps, Executive Director of the Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries. The survey will include a detailed breakdown of the relative abundance of deer and turkeys in each county of the state. In addition, the habitat conditions for each species will be indicated along with the upward, downward or stable trends of game populations. While Virg in la’s district game biologists will plan and supervise the survey, the knowledge and observations of local game wardens and game managers will be extensively utilized in carrying it out. Deer and turkey numbers per EXERCISE. POSTURE ARE IMPORTANT Exercise keeps you alert and adds to your beauty. Swimming is one of the best forms of exercise. It builds up your chest, trims your waistline, and slims your legs. Run all you can. Running stretches your' muscles and adds to your physical fitness, as do skating, cycling, tennis, softball, and other sports. Your gym teacher has taught you the exercises that help build good figures. Exercise dally — even at home. And don’t forget good posture. You wear your clothes better, look better, and even feel better when you stand tall and walk tall. Walking correctly is a necessity for the well-groomed young lady. Point your toes straight ahead, and as you take a step, put your heels down first. The weight of your body rolls forward from heel to toe as the other foot takes its step. Let your arms move naturally with the rest of your body. Don't swing your hips. And when you sit, sit tall. ' Even when sitting, the poised young lady keeps her chest up, tummy In, and knees together. AH poised young ladles do these things. square mile will be determined for each section of the county when abundance Varies. Sections of counties where these species are absent will be considered as potential areas for restocking if suitable habitat exists. Statistical information on land use, human population and distribution, hunting pressure, game kill and other factors which affect game numbers will be gathered at the time the survey is made. Personnel of the Commission’s Game Research section hope to have the information analyzed prior to the game regulation proposal meeting next spring. The current inventory will concentrate on deer and turkeys, but small game abundance and habitat conditions may be evaluated on a similar basis in the near future. “ Christian Workers School Oct. 18-22 A Zone Christian Workers’ School will be held at the Culpeper Methodist Church October 18-22.

Veterans News When is a disability “service connected"? A disability due to service is said to be "service connected" when it is: 1. Shown to have originated during active service, or 2. Shown to have been aggravated in service, or 3. A_chronic disabiliry sjiown to have Vecome apparent wittt in one year after discharge from wartime service, or within the presumptive period allowed for certain disabilities. There is no presumption for peacetime service, except for some tropical diseases when the veteran was stationed in the tropics for at least 6 months. When service treatment rer cords have become lost or misplaced, service connection can sometimes be established by personal affidavit of the veteran, medical affidavits from the home doctor and affidavits from comrades who served with him. It is especially important that the veteran on his claim form answer fully all questions asked, because a full description of the dates and places of treatment can some times uncover records misfiled. Edward M. Mathews, of the Front Royal Office of the Division of War Veterans’ Claims is in Washington at the Clerk’s Office on 1st and 3rd Monday from 2 to 4 p.m. and will gladly give more details on this subject or any other matter connected with veteran's affairs.

Letter Sorting Machines Installed Plans to install 26 highspeed letter-sorting machines In 13 of the nation's largest cities-two to each city-were announced today by Postmaster General John A. Gronouski. Cities slated to receive the huge, multi-position letter ^ sorters - capable of distri- ] buting letters to 279 destina- , tlons at a speed of 43,000 ■ envelopes an hour-are Washington, D. C„ Boston, Mass., , Buffalo, N.

Each machine ^ costs about $110,000. i One of the most important j features of the new letter sorters, Mr, Gronouski noted will be their ability to operate with ZIP Code optical scanning devices now being developed for the Post Office Department rhe scanners will examine the' ace of each envelope, locate he address, then instruct the etter sorters where to distrijute the envelope. Each machine utilizes 12 ceyboard operators, who can sort mail to six times the numser of estinations that could 3e achieved through use of the Did manual pigeonhole method --and in a fraction of the time. As a letter moves automatically in front of an operator seated at each console, he reads the address and presses several keys which automatically route the envelope to its proper destination. The machines, measuring 77.6 feet long, 12 feet wide, and 9 feet and 6 inches high, “will play a major role in speeding mail through these cities, reducing costs, and improving efficiency," Postmaster General Gronouski said. “This is in direct line with our policy," he noted, “ to install proven mechanization only where it can be economically justified in terms of increased productivity at less cost to the American taxpayer".

Health and Safety Tips Heat and cold—usually exemplified by heating pads and Ice packs—play a big role In first aid and in therapy for all sorts of physical Ills. In many cases application of cold helps to minimize swell ing, Inhibit bleeding, reduce excessively high body temperature and relieve pain, says Today’s Health, themaga zine of the American Medical Association. Cold applications, especially ice, have an anesthetic effect. They may be helpful in case of nosebleeds, bleeding from minor cuts such as razor blade nicks, sprains, bites and stings of insects, minor burns and heat prostration. When and how can you use cold in first aid? Cold applications tend to inhibit bleeding by constricting the small blood vessels in nosebleeds and persistently oozing minor cuts. Applications of ice water alleviate discomfort from insect stings and bites, and may delay the chemical action and circulation of injected poison. Immediate application of water compresses to sprains lessens swelling. Such applications should be continued for at least half an hour before the sprained limb is taped or otherwise supported. Social Security Notes Officials at the Winchester, Virginia social security office report that the following question is frequently received from people who have applied for benefits: How will my benefits be affected if I later find that I will earn more than I had previously estimated for the year? If you find that you will probably make more during the year than you previously estimated, notify the social security office as soon as you can. If you are eligible for social security payments, the amount of benefits you receive is related to your report of estimated earnings, which you make to the Social Security Administration early in the year. If you are going to earn more than you estimated at the beginning of the year, you can see that it is necessary to report that fact to avoid possible overpayment of benefits. The actual earnings you report at the end of the year serve as a basis for the final adjustment. It is best to avoid any over Engineered for safety oonrcnienca. and economy • • .
