RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 675-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. Subscription Rate (In Advance): $2.50 per year in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.00 elsewhere. EXTRA - - EXTRA By Ed.... These moderate days and cool nights make living a pleasure after some of the 95 degree, plus, weather we’ve had. We can almost forget howweprac tically melted and ran down the street the day of the Flint Hill Post Office dedication. To add to my discomfort that day was the fact I was all "gussied up" for I had attend ed Barbara’s delightful luncheon at noon. That was HER DAY, and many of her good friends and business associates from a distance came to share her job and have lunch. Since she had not seen a number of them for a long time, everyone was kissing everyone. Frances Bradford commented on “All the kissing" and Mrs. Mary Cleverley cleverly replied, “Don’t you know, they’re playing Post office." * ************ They had a hot time at the recent family reunion of the Turner-Cropp clan at Rixeyville, I hear. During the after-; noon, suddenly one of the young er members of the family came dashing into the house asking for a bucket of water to put out the fire in the water melon patch. Assuming he was joking no one paid attention to his plea until finally at his insistance they went outside to find that someone had apparently-Jossed acigaretaway and it had ignited the sawdust mulch in the melon patch. ************ And there is the Harris Hoi low lady who carried a water melon the first she had all season, to the Lions Club pic nic last Wednesday on Red Oak Mt. When it wasn't cut .(there was such an abundance /of food) she remarked to hen ‘'Husband that she was surely going to enjoy the melon next day. Well, you know those enter prising Lions . . . they decided to auction off the food which was left and someone else enjoyed the melon. Guess the Lady had to scuffle off the hill and get another one. What attractive local housewife is having trouble practicing making a summer salad to enter in a contest because her husband eat6 up all the ingredients before she can use them. Have you seen a gentleman with blueberries on his mouth? ************ One day last week I stopped at Bob’s Souvenir Shop in Sperryville and while standing there talking a potential customer drove up. When the lady alighted from her vehicle and came toward us the (first thing she asked was, | “Do you have a trash can? I didn’t want to throw this paper on the highway.” The paper was about the size of a rumpled face tissue. It had not been long before that I had followed an out of state car with its five occu pants eating candy, icfe crean> etc, and as each finished he or she tossed the refuse out the window. Another car I had followed was occupied by three boys. One threw out a soft drink bottle which landed on the dirt shoulder of the road and bounced onto the blacktop. The bottle smashed and I was caught in a shower of flying glass. ii tnere were a few more travelers as conscientious as the first lady our roadsides would be much more beautiful Perhaps, if we were a bit more careful and conscientious ourselves and set a better example, the travelers through our county, and state might pattern after us. FRUIT CROP PROSPECTS GOOD During August the Virginia Homemaker wil^find at her food store a fine selection of Virginia grown peaches. Among the newer peach varieties is the high quality, freestone, yellow flesh Sunhigh which is now being harvested. About mid-August the principle peach areas of Virginia will be harvesting the old standby, Elberta, that will make up about 35% of Virginia’s production this year. The prospects for a quality of apples from Virginia continue good as growers get into the harvest of the summer v a r ie t ie s--Williams Early Red and Rambo. In spite of moisture shortage in some areas, the apples are sizing well and growers look forward to the harvest of a few more apples than last year. In Frederick County the production of the York variety is expected to be down from last Rapp-Chats By W. H. Lyne SEED WINTER PASTURES August 10th - Sept. 15th says, W. W. Lewis, Extension Agro nomist V.P.I. If to be grazed this fall apply a complete fertilizer to include 32-40 pounds nitrogen per acre; if to be grazed in the spring apply nitrogen dur ing January or early February and phosphate and potash at seeding.' Seed 2-4 bushels per acre when small grain to be used for pasture, silage, or hay. When rye is seeded alone, 2 bu. per acre is sufficient. Farmers find seedings made earlier than above dates frequently are damaged by disease. ****•*•*••*• ALFALFA VARIETIES recommended and percent of relative yields as compared to Williamsburg are; Atlantic 94%, Buffalo - 97%, Cherokee - 101%, Du Puits - 94%, Narragansett 93%, Vernal 102% and Williamsburg - 100%. Cherokee and Vernal are new varieties. •**•*•*•*•** Lt. Col. Norman Wilbur and Lt. Commander Lowell Archer of Slate Mills were somewhat put out by not being included in our “Colonel Coun ty” list. Lowell felt too I was slighting the Navy. My apologies boys! You know during W.W. II, I was but a Captain -- slaved for the light weights then and still am as a “civvy." Col. Biddle got a big charge out of the article and asked if he could “swipe it". Also find there is a Lt. Col Hall back in Jenkins Hollow. Know any more? ************ BUT ANOTHER CHANGE now seems in order. Instead of the name Rappahannock one would think L & L Colonel County to be more appropriate Mr. Lane owns or controls land from Red Oak to Madison line while Mr. Lindgren owns from practically the outshirts of Washington to Laurel Mills and Hope Hill! ************ PEOPLE ARE HOPING the Noces will not leave Rappahannock. “There is one ‘new’ farm couple who has really become a contributing part of the life and affairs of our county.” This approximates the ultimate comment from all who have discussed with me the sale of the Noce's farm to Mr. Lindgren. Could a higher compliment be paid? I think not, and join the host of friends the Noces year. Red Delicious production is expected to offset the reduction in Yorks. Other varieties appear to be in normal volume. Generally in Virginia there are more Red Delicious than last year. There are less Winesaps than last year with about the same quantity of Golden Delicious and Stayman, according to a report by the Virginia State Horticultural Society. nave won in saying, * I hope’ you all will stay". ~ Tommy Eastham reports hav ing made 48 bushels orchard grass seed per acre!

Orchardists for Harvest Labor WASHINGTON — Rep. John O. Marsh, Jr., has joined in urging Secretary of Labor, W. Willaxd Wirtz to give further consideration to the need of Virginia orchardists for adequate harvest labor. The 7th District Congressman pointed out that, while Vir ginia fruit growers were exert ing maximum efforts to recruit sufficient domestic laboi; it was clear that not enough qualified pickers could be drawn to the orchards from domestic sources, and that there would be a need to supplement them by experienced temporary workers from the Bahamas or elsewhere, if this year’s Virginia orchard crops were to be harvested in good condition. In urging Secretary Wirtz to use his authority to permit importation of sufficient additional workers, Marsh pointed out that it was not a question of wage rates, as one of having on hand in the orchards, at the proper time, sufficient qualified pickerp. He wrote Wirtz, in part: "Based on the experience of recent years, and on preliminary but solid indications so far this year, it appears evident that broad and intensive recruitment efforts in the domestic labor force will not produce sufficient harvest labor, including means of providing for the attrition which has occurred during the harvest period in the past among relatively inexperienced domestic labor, many of whom remain in the orchards only for brief periods and then drift away. "In short, it seems obvious that there will be need again HD Members at Federation Meeting Rappahannock County Home Demonstration Clubs were represented at the State Federation meeting at VPI last week by five members. They were Mrs. W. A. Gentry, outgoing State secretary, and Mrs. Ida Trump of Flint Hill and Mrs. J. L. Walter, Mrs. F. L. Bowey and Mrs. Nelson Burner of Amissville.

Pollard, Member of Virginia General Assembly, Dr. Addison M. Duvall, Director, Division of Mental Health, Ga., and Miss Barbara Moore, I.F.Y.F.. to Peru from Frederick County, Virginia.

"I am writing to urge, therefore, that consideration be given to the problem of the Vir ginia fruit industry, with particular attention to time factors involved. “This is not a question of disinclination to use any and all available qualified domestic labor, and it is not a question of wage rates; it simply is one of being able to have sufficient lead time to arrange for the reporting when needed of sufficient harvest labor of reason able competence, willing to remain through the harvest of these Virginia crops." Lester Shaw Uninjured In Auto Accident Lester L. Shaw of Culpeper, an employee of the Rappahannock National Bank in Wash ington, was fortunate enough to escape serious injury Sunday night when his convertible which he was driving was slammed from the rear by another car and flipped on its top. He and his companion, Miss Doris Frazier, crawled out safely with only minor cuts and bruises. According to reports they were proceeding south on U. S. 29 when a '57 sedan swerved out to pass them and smashing into the rear caused the convertible to become out of control, and crashed into a small foreign-make car. Heavy damage was sustained to both car8. The driver of the sedan was not immediately identified. The five persons involved were treated and released at Culpeper Memorial Hospital.

Science Helps Insects Kill Selves Scientists are taking a new approach to insect problems, says J. M. Amos, Virginia Tech entomologist. Amos says methods are being devised which enable the insects to exterminate themselves. One way is to induce sterility in males and females in natural populations. This has been done by irradiating and releasing the male screw-worm fly in the southeastern states and fruit flies in the Pacific. The insects mate with naturally produced females which lay eggs that do not hatch. The screwworm has been eradicated in this manner on a Caribbean island, and the release of males in the southeastern states is no longer necessary because no new infestations have been reported The infestation is now being pushed back into Mexico. This method of control has also been successful on Pacific islands where fruit flies have been exterminated. Scientists also are investigating ways to contaminate or infect insects with diseases. Another method which would help kill out insects,would be to produce a strain or race of a species which would produce inferior progeny unable to survive. For example -- insects that cannot fly or tjiose that cannot withstand cold. Amos says each of these methods holds greater promise of insect control than some chemical methods, but they Smokey Says: ppQE ARC 1RCEE GCME0AL sJMWS CAN USE OUR HAW DS, W»TM ,a*CH*4 OVC* j toCEST RRC 1 B70 C&RU PtfTTHCM IH OJft RXlCtTS DO HOTWlMCS . .'

Pay Raise for Wheat Farmers The nation’s wheat farmers “need and deserve* a raise in pay. Secretary of Agriculture, Orville L. Freeman told Mon tana farmers and businessmen who visited the Department of Agriculture Wednesday afternoon. He said the administration’s proposed omnibus farm bill will provide better income for wheat farmers “without hurt ing consumers or the baking industry.* • The Secretary described the "bread trust" as the spearhead of opposition to the pro posal which would improve the price paid farmers for domestically-consumed wheat. Pointing out that farmers are receiving the same 2.6 cents now for the wheat in a pound loaf of bread they were getting in 1962, the Secretary recalled that in 1962 the baking industry had net profits of $101 million after taxes. Five firms — representing less that 2/100’s of the industry — collected 57 percent of the profits, he added. It is not clear, Secretary Freeman said, whether the “bread trust” really wants to scuttle the farm bill “or if its goal is to use this legislation as a take-off point for a two-or-three-cent increase in bread prices.” The legislation calls for an increase in the farm price of the wheat required for a onepound loaf of bread of .7 of a cent. This farm income gain, if reflected in retail prices at all, should be less than a penny, the Secretary of Agriculture contends. Between 1957-59 and 1964, while spectacular increases were occurring in gross national product, 36 percent, and personal income, 34 per cent, gross returns to wheat farmers from their crops showed only a one percent gain, the Secretary said. Hurricanes Given Girls’ Names Washington-- Names of hurricanes for the 1965 season range from Anna to Wenda. The Weather Bureau isn’t playing games in giving hurricanes girls' names; it has a serious purpose. Use of short, easily remembered names helps to avoi&> errors in the transmission of vital information between widely scattered stations, ships at sea, and hurricanehunting planes that fly into the center of the storms, the National Georgraphic Society says. The names reduce confusion when two or more tropical cyclones occur at the same time. In 1950, for example, four unnamed hurricanes simultaneously whirled across j the Gulf of Mexico, the Carib bean Sea, and the Atlantic Ocean. Warnings about one storm were mistaken for another hundreds of miles away. Storm Called Alice To avoid this kind of misunderstanding, hurricanes in the three areas were designa ted by a phonetic alphabet ( Able, Baker, Charlie, etc.) SPECIAL Sidewalk Sale 1/4” Black & Decker Drill Special G.E.

Do’s and Don’t For Those Affected By New Government Benefit Rights Now that the President has signed the 1965 Social Security Amendments, some people will want to take action right away in order to protect their new benefit rights. Most others will need'to take no action at all. As legislation pro viding health insurance for the aged and making other farreaching changes in the social security program became effective with the ceremony in Independence, Missouri on July 30, Robert M. Ball, Com missioner of Social Security, proposed some “Do’s and Don’t’s* for the many millions of persons who will be affected. “First of all, let me say to the 20 million people now receiving social security benefits; you don’t need to take any action at all in order to get the increased cash benefit payments the law provides. The amount of the increase for the months of January through August, 1965 will be paid to you in a separate check that will reach you in the latter part of September The first regular checks reflecting the 7 percent increase will be mailed early in October, covering the month of September. Second; social security and railroad retirement beneficiaries now 65 or over will not need to take any action to secure their basic hospital pro tection under the new Health Insurance Program. All aged! persons now on the rolls will receive in September or October a full information kit directly by mail describing this protection, which becomes ef fective July 1, 1966. Before this effective date a Health Insurance Card certifying to their eligibility for the services will automatically be sent to beneficiaries 65 or over. Third: social security beneficiaries will not need to goto the social security office about the voluntary supplementary plan covering physicians fees and other benefits. At the time they get the basic information kit, they will receive an enrollment postcard giving them an opportunity to sign up for the added medical insurance program, which also becomes effective July 1, 1966. Fourth, a special message to people 65 or over who have never worked under social security: although not qualified for cash social security bene fits, these people may qualify for the basic hospital insurance protection under the new “medicare* program. Those receiving public assistance from the States may be signed up for the basic hospital insurance by their welfare agencies. Enrollments in the voluntary medical insurance plan can be accepted beginning Sep tember 1, 1965. Therefore, persons over 65 who have not worked under social security should wait at least until September 1 before visiting their social security office. Then they can sign up for the basichospital insurance and also, enroll in the medical insurance program if they wish that additional important protection.* Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, District Manager of the Winchester, Virginia Social Security Office, stated that in the weeks ahead news releases will be issued to the various groups affected by the new amendments. | in isoi and in isoj, the Weather Bureau began christening the tropical disturbances with girls’ names. The first was a minor earlyseason storm called Alice. In I960, a semipermanent roster of four sets of names was introduced. A separate set, is used each year, beginning with the first name in the group. After four years the rotation of sets begins again. Whenever a major hurricane affects the United States, its name is retired for 10 years and another substituted. The 1965 names are Anna, Betsy, Carol* Debbie, Elena, In^; Jenny, Kara, Laune, Martha, Netty, Orva, Peggy, Rhoda, Sadie, Tanya. Virgy, and Wenda. Because so few names start with Q, U, X, Y, and Z, they are omitted altogether. Before abandoning those letters, the Weather Bureau came up with Quella. Udele, Xmay,Yola Zenda, and the nice. Though there are only 21 names on each list-, there is little chance of running short The largest number of tropical disturbances recorded in the Gulf-Atlantic area in one season is 21; the least, two. The hurricane season runs from June 15 to November 30. Only a few storms have been recorded before or after those dates. Weather Bureau officials Repeatedly have to declare that (in naming storms they don't have particular individuals in mind. Yet an occasional angry husband does complajn when a particularly nasty storm bears his wife’s name. Many women write: “Please name a hurricane after me." Suggestions have been made to designate hurricanes tty Greek letters ( ^lpha. Beta, OamnVaJi, ‘ft^mefe yf anim«$-‘ (Antefopef Bear, Coyote), do- 1 scriptive adjectives (Annoy ing, Blustery. Churning), or infamous men ( Attila. Blue Beard, Cain). Naming hurricanes^ is pot ! a new practice. For several j hundred years many West Indian ■ hurricanes ^jere named after’ saints on whose days they arrived. Residents of San to Dorlingo called a 1834 storm “Padre Ruiz” for a priest who was being buried when it struck. A hurricane that hit Florida in November, 1935, was dubbed “Yankee Storm" because it moved from the nf^rtji. How To Become Cert. Seed Grower Any farmer interested is eligible to grow certified seed --provided he is willing to do the extra work and take the extra precautions necessary to produce a certified seed crop. Crops grown for certified seed production should be planted on clean land, that is free from objectionable weeds and free Of seed of other crops that might contaminate the crop being grown for certified seed. A field of small grain would not be eligible for certification if this field was planted to small grain the previous year -- unless the previous crop was the same variety and grown from certified seecj The same applies to soybeans and other seed crops. This rule is rigidly adhered to, since there are always some volunteer plants coming up from seed from the previous crop. It is usually very difficult to find land that is entirely free of objectionable weeds. However, for certified seed production a farmer should plant on the cleanest land available, Many objectionable weeds can be controlled very effectively by chemical sprays, if done properly and at the proper time. Wild onion is one of the most troublesome weeds in small grain crops. This weed can be controlled by chemical sprays. Spraying should be done after the grain has fully tillered, but before it starts to joint. Spraying should not be done when the temperature is below 60 degrees Fahren neit. If a farmer decides to become a certified seed producer, he should plant either Foundation or Registered seed --and should save the tags from the seed planted. Before planting, the drill or planter must be thoroughly cleaned so there will be no possible chance of a mixture in the crop. The next step is to apply to the Virginia Crop Improvement Association, Blacksburg Virginia, for field inspection for certification. One of the certification tags from each lot of seed planted should be enclosed with the application for inspecgion. After the crop begins to head up, the grower should carefully inspect the field to see if it contains any other crop mixture--such as rye in a field ttf wheat,, barley or oats. If so, the rye should be pulled and removed from the field before the VC IA inspector makes the official field inspection. Before harvesting a crop grown for certified seed, the combine must be thoroughly cleaned. Fven after thoroughly cleaning the combine it is best to lay aside the first few bags of grain to be used for feed -- as an extra precaution against getting varietal mixture or other crop mixture in your certified seed, from the com bine.

If germination and purity requirements are met, the VCIA will issue certification tags upon request. An official certification tag must be attached to each bag sold as certified seed. Since very few farmers have adequate seed cleaning and processing equipment, most of the certified seed now being grown in this state is grown under contract for seedsmen. When a farmer produces certified seed on a contract basis, his responsibility ends with the harvesting and delivery of the seed. Anyone interested in more detailed information concerning production of certified seed should write to the Virginia Crop Improvement Association, Blacksburg. I *65 Feed Grain Payments Made Payments to Rappahannock County growers participating in the 1965 Feed Crain Program are being made at the ASCS office. They cover both diversion and price-support payments. H. S. Barksdale, ASCS county chairman, estimates that total feed grain payments, including those made at time of spring signup, will be about $33,200.00 to Rappahannock County participants. This will substantially raise returns on 1965 feed grain crops. In addition, farmers participating in the feed grain program are eligible for loans on their 1965 crops of corn, grain sorghum, and barley. Diversion payments compensate a farmer for reducing corn, grain sorghum, or barley acreage by at least 20 percent below the farm’s base acreage (computed from 195960 acreage) and devoting the diverted acres to approved conservation use. The diversion payment is based on the normal yield for the farm times the per-bushel rate that applies to each grain. Price-support payments are made on the normal production of the acreage planted to each of the three feed grains in 1965. These are 20 cents per bushel for corn, 16 cents per bushel for barley, and 35 cents per hundredweight for grain sorghum. Payment is assured no matter what disposition is made of grain. When farmers signed last spring in the 1965 Feed Grain Program, they could receive in advance half the total estimated diversion payments. Payments being made now include the remaining diversion payment and all of the price support payment earned under the program. Mr. Barksdale said there should be no delay In farmers rece iving prompt payment where diverted acreage and other program provisions have been met. When the application is completed and sigo ed, payment is made promptly. Although final payments are being made now, farmers are reminded that they are responsible for keeping up conservation practices on diverted acres for the remainder of the calendar year.

From The Home Agent\ Pen m By Doris Daugherty Fashion Trends for Fall Women are always interested in what’s new in fashions, so let’s look at the Fall fashion picture for 1965. The news for fall, according to Mrs. Lois E. Beaufait, Clothing Specialist at V.P.I., is not new design or cut! These factors have remained similar for several seasons. The easy fit, and comfortable styles are still the ones women want and buy. It is unfortunate that certain figure types have little selection. This is because the clothing industry is geared to the young look... and the youthful figure. Manufacturers gear themselves to where the most sales appear to be. The news for Fall 1965 will be color and fabric design. Fabric design is influenced by the art of the day. With even Pogo of the funnies talking about “op art", you can expect some fabric this fall to appear with “op art" as well as “pop art" fabric de signs. The pop art cloth design will appeal to the young set, while the more sophisticated “opart* designs in cloth will appear in very high fashion, striking types of clothing. Neither of these trends in fabric design will be adopted by a large portion of population, but you will see evidence of these fabric design trends. More obvious and more generally accepted by the public will be less startling fabric designs. Bold plaids and crisp checks will continue popular. Woolens are continuing their trend toward the smoother look with fine twill weaves taking on considerable Jmporfr ance. For the dressy look in woolens, crocheted-like fabrics will be more dominant on the fashion scene than ever. Lacy, over-stitched woolens are gaining in popularity. Soft, drapable, supple fabrics will be used again this fall. In a time when the very feminine look is present in women’s clothing, these soft fabrics fit — While tne color range for Fall 1965 will be much the same, some new trends do appear. Greens will be the yellow-green variety or the darker evergreen shades. The most noticeable blue is a sharp Oriental Ming blue. In the orange family, burnt orange and pumpkin will be featured with silvery grey, an important neutral for all. Hints If you tangle with poison ivy, it’s not enough to Just soap off the exposed areas of the ixfdy. Glothing can also become contaminated with the plant's irritating oils, so it is not safe to wear or handle these garments until they have been laundered in hot soap or detergent suds and rinses. Leaving soon for a vacation? Well, remember to buy wisely at the grocery store for several days before you go so you won’t have a fancy accumulation of left overs to waste or to dole out to the neighbors. When the refrigerator is empty, disconnect and defrost it, and wash it inside and outside with hot sudsy water...including all the compartments and trays. Then le&ve the door open during your absence. Have you tried using a second ‘‘top’’ sheet these cool summer nights? It adds just the right comfort and is easier to wash than the traditional cotton quilt. Cleanliness must prevail even during these lazy days, so remember to keep the childrens play pool sanitary. This is important because bacterial and germs thrive in hot moist atmosphere.

Interest collected at the Culpeper Farmers Home Administration office totalled more than $39,032 during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1965. This was more than twice the entire expense of operation of the office, including salaries, for the one year period, stated J. P. Walker, County Supervisor. This office covers a nine-county area which includes the county of Rappahannock. Mr. Walker said that this figure did not include one percent interest received on about $442,317 of insured loans, which would amount to better than $4000 more. Total collections for the fiscal year amounted to $339,763 with over a million outstanding in loans at this time. In addition to direct appropriations by Congress, FHA makes insured loans also. These are funds borrowed by the government from banks, insurance companies, other lending institutions and companies as well as funds an individual may desire to invest. The first such loan in Virginia was made through the Culpeper office by the State Bank of Madison (now National Bank and Trust Company) in Madison in 1948. This was a 40-year loan--however, it has long since been repaid by the borrower, and he has expanded his operation greatly and is now using local bank credit entirely. Funds advanced by the banks for these insured loans do not reduce their farm loan money but is considered the same as other types of investments. The Gov ernment can pay the lender up to 4 1/2 percent. This rate was increased by 1/2 percent in the last year to make the opportunity for advancing these funds more attractive to those who might have such funds to invest. The government will purchase these notes after three years if the lender desires to have his funds returned at the end of this period. Farmers Home Administration makes loans only to those farmers and rural residents who are unable to borrow from banks and other sources on terms and conditions they can meet. Loan funds are geared to the needs of the individual and farm and home plans and nrinlf tlie^so und he s ^oJ^^ 1 o an and the operation before such loans are approved. The agency has different programs to meet needs of family type Read the Wdht Ads - It Pays ! Interest Paid Farmers Home Administration Over $39,032 and less than family typefarm jrs, as well as rural residents and those who may be larger than family size farmers. The rural housing and Boll and water loans are examples of those that can be made to larger than family size operators. The Economic Opportunity Act gave Farmers Home Administration additional lending authorities this year. These Economic Opportunity loans can be made to farmers or non-farmers so long as the purpose is for some enterprise that will increase the income of the family. Loans of this type to Individuals may not exceed $2500. Loans for cooperatives to increase income to farmers and nonfarmers may be made in larger amounts. These are at an interest rate of 4 1/8 percent with a repayment period up To 15 years. Some of the types of enterprises that may be financed for these rural residents ^re: auto repair, custom butchering, day care tor cnuaren, seamstress, barber shop, cabinet shop, carpentry tools, timber harvesting, body shop, beauty shop and numerous otherV. Farmers Home Administration can also make loans to public bodies for water systems for town and communities with populations of less than 2500. Statistics show that there are more than 30,000 rural communities still without good water. Practically all of the loan funds advanced are spent by the borrowers locally. In addition to helping the borrowers make a success of their vocations, these funds stimulate business and provide employment opportunities. In addition to loan uses mentioned above funds can be used to purchase farms, refinance and develop farms, construct and remodel dwellings and farm service buildings, purchase land and dwellings for senior citizens, and operating purposes such as seed, fertilizers, livestock and equipment. Farmers Home Administration (and its predecessor agen cies) was created to provide a supplemental source of credit and is not in competition with other credit agencies, j Where other credit can meet i the heeds of applicants, Farmers Home Administration does not make the loan. The Culpeper Office is located at 608 South Main Street. HURRY! HURRY! HURRY!

Watermelon is so good chilled and served "as is” that most people are content to enjoy it this way. Yet there are many interesting ways to use watermelon. For a deliciously different salad, mix melon balls with diced apple, walnuts and chopped celery. Toss with French dressing. Watermelon pulp, placed in the blender and strained, or put through a sieve, adds sparkling flavor to fruit juice cocktails. In a recipe tested by the Watermelon Growers & Distributors Association, watermelon pulp has been used in an interesting new way—in an easy-to-make gelatin dessert. Watermelon juice was substituted for part of the water and the pulp was stirred into the gelatin after it started to set. Tropical Melon Mold 2 3-ounce packages mixed 1 cup watermelon juice fruit-flavored gelatin 1 cup watermelon pulp, 1 cup boiling water pureed 2 teaspoons lemon juice Add cup of boiling water to gelatin. Stir to dissolve completely. Place watermelon in blender until liquefied, then strain to separate pulp from juice. You will need 1 cup of juice and 1 cup of pulp. (Without a blender, force melon through a sieve.) Add cup of watermelon juice and 2 teaspoons lemon juice to gelatin. Chill until slightly thickened. Fold in watermelon pulp. Chill until set. To unmold, dip quickly into lukewarm water, shake to loosen, and invert onto a plate. Garnish with green grapes, or sweetened cream cheese balls rolled in chopped pecans. Though destructive, earthquakes are essential to life, the National Geographic says. Mountains are constantly eroding apd if they were not raised again by quakes, the world would become a uninhabitable place of stagnant seas and swamps.

In 1964, 4,810 persons died in car accidents during August, almost four per cent more than in October, the next most dangerous month for driving. According to the Association, the high total for August is attributable mainly to the large numbers of vacationers who take to the roadways dur ing that month.

Change To Metric System Forecast The metric system, which is presently in use by about 90 per cent of the world’s population, is something which the United States ultimately must i adopt if it is to keep pace with i the modern times and remain | competitive in world trade, j said the Virginia Dept, of Agri ! culture. The United States is now certainly in the minority with its old system of weights and measures -- many of which can be traced back to the size and length of an ancient king’s" arm or foot. The British government recently announced plans to begin the conversion to the metric svstem over a 10 year period. This changeover would leave America as the only major nation in the world still clinging to the outmoded system of pounds, pints, inches, acres, etc. VDA, and especially its weights and measures section, realizes that the metric system is something that cannot be brought about overnight or '■At nmt him nm am in wwx imvi at m hu For all your farm lubrication neodsl I Wortt prompt delivery... assurance that you're getting the right lubricant* for the best performance of your farm mochlneryf Then call on me!

Based on decimals, the metric system is certainly a more accurate and scientific approach to weights and measures, but the conversion process would be a tremendous and costly undertaking. Before a complete and successful conversion to the new system could be made, a thorough educational program would be needed -- a program which should begin in elementary schools to teach children the basics of the metric system. At present, Virginia statutes allow products to be labeled showing their weight or measure in the metric system or our customary system, or botl\ A complete changeover, says the department, could not be fully successful until legislation is passed adopting metric as the official system. During a conversion period, it would probably be necessary to give businesses the option of using either one or the other of the systems. Industries that would be hardest hit by the conversion would be automotive, appliance, and machine tooling. In these, all dies, tools, machine parts and gauges would have to be changed to metric units, and millions of plans, diagrams and designs would have to be converted. Before Congress now is a bill to appropriate funds for an intensive study to determine the approximate cost of conversion. The metric system is not anything new. It came into being with the French Revolu tion in 1789 when the National Assembly directed that a new metric system be devised for if Weekly Farm Price Outlook (This is the way prospects for Virginia farm prices looked to the Virginia Dept, of Agriculture on Friday. The Department offers it to one can predict prices and he right farmers with the warning that no I all the time.) Egg prices are expected to continue their seasonal uptrend for the next several weeks. I’reduction is declining seasonally, but is likely to continue hovering around 1964 levels for the next few months. Based on July 1 estimates, France. In the following years the system spread over France and throughout most of Europe. Over the last 150 years almost all nations -- except those of English culture -- have switched to the metric system and have not regretted the conversion. For the USA the change would be cost ly 'and inconvenient, but with the passing of each year, the conversion process will become more difficult. PITTS DRIVE-IN Route 55 on Straaburg Rd.
