Dead were Naomi Jackson, 20, and Sandra Ruth Humes, 18. The accident occurred about 3 a.m. December 25 on U.S. Route 211 between Washington and Sperryville. Four other occupants of the car sustained minor injuries. The six young people were returning home after attending a dance. According to Trooper R, M. Dodson, the 1957 Chevrolet operated by Anderson Carthel Codington of Orange was proceeding west at a high rate of'speed as it rounded a curve and ran off the right of the road. The car skidded diagonally across the highway and struck the cement bridge. It then recrossed the road and came to rest against the bridge on the other side. Two charges of manslaughter and driving without an operator's license have been placed against Covington. Other passengers in the car were Margo Humes, 17, of Madison Mills, Warren William Johnson, 23, and William Howard Glenn, 22, both of Orange. Owner of the vehicle was listed as Eugene Twyman of Orange. He was not with the group. Two Amissville residents were involved in a collision on December 12 on Route 643 a mile and a half north of Amissville. Trooper W. A. Buntin, who investigated the crash, reported that Lilia Mary Jackson operating a 65 Ford ftnd Thomas Edward Rec^ tor driving a 57 Ford met in the .center, of.... rhe .on -a* curve. Neither operator was injured and both were charged with failing to drive to the right of the road. Sustaining injuries in the collision was George Jackson, also of Amissville, a passenger in the Jackson car, who had an injury of the right leg and internal injuries. December 31 brought two Single vehicle crashes to the attention of Trooper Buntin. Charles Clayton Dombrow Virginia Hunt Fees Lag Behind Nation Virginia fees for a hunting license rank about 13th above the lowest in the nation based on a 1964 survey, according to the Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries. Actual comparison is difficult since most states have a small game hunting license priced about the same as Virginia’s, but require a separate license for big game costing as much asjfhe basic license. In over half of the 50 states it costs $5 or over to get licensed for both big game and small game, and in 15 states it costs $6 or over for licenses and tags to hunt deer. Of the 5 states nearest to Virginia, four have hunting license fees higher than Virginia’s and two have fishing license fees that are higher. Resident big game license fees vary from Virginia's $1.00 to a $25.00 fee in one of the midwestern states. The national average big game license fee at the time of this survey was $6.88. The average small game and big game license package was about $10.00. Although the survey did not include the number of licenses similar to Virginia’s $2.00 county hunting and fishing con>i bination, apparently many states do not have an equivalent low-priced option. Virginia’s resident hunting license fee was fixed at its current $3.50 level in 1948, and the fishing license was increased to $3.50 in 1958. To meet rising operating costs the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries will recommend that the 1966 General A& sembly increase hunting and fishing license fees to $5.00 each, and establish a $9.00 state hunting and fishing combination license. Under this proposal, the sportsman who now buys both a hunting and fishing license would pay $2.00 more annually if he chose to purchase the new combination. sKy, Jr. of Alexandria over turned on Route 729 two and a half miles south of Ben Venue. Dombrowsky, operating a 58 Volkswagen, ran off tb$ right of the road, crossed back to the left side, struck a bank and turned over. The vehicle was a total loss, said Tfooper Buntin. The driver was not injured. He was charged with reckless driving. On Route 522 two miles east of Woodville, William Elvans Haines of Luray sustained minor injuries when his vehicle crashed into an embankment. According to Trooper Buntin, Haines was operating a 65 BUick which ran off the shoulder of the road for 30 yards, crossed the highway to the left and plowed down the bank for an' additional 60 yards before stopping. Haines sustained lacerations of the nose and mouth. He was charged with reckless driving. Three vehicles were involved in a crash on Monday, December 27 on Route 211 in front of the local high school. Trooper K. L. Miller, who investigated the collision, said Jimmy Roberison Jenkins of Sperryville, operating a 55 Chevrolet was going south when he struck two oncoming vehicles. One was a 61 Corvair operated - by James Andrew Yeager of Arlington and the second was a Mack tractor-trailer owned by Raefojfd Trucking Co. of Sanford, N. C. and operated by Ralph Lee Blakely, also of Sanford. The Jenkins car veered across the road into the north bound lane, striking the left side of the Corvair, continued on and struck the tandem wheels of the trailer. The Chevrolet then careened into the left embankment of the highway. Jenkins was charged with reckless driving, said 'Hull Jenxins sustained lacerations and abrasions of the head and body. A passenger in the Jenkins car, Billy Thomas, als» of Sperryville, sustained lacerations and abrasions of the face and chest. They were taken to Culpeper Memorial Hospital by Rappahannock Rescue Squad where they were treated and released. On December 29 a single vehicle crash resulted in a charge of reckless driving for the operator. The accident occurred on Route 211 a mile and a half west of Sperryville, According to Trooper Paul P. Dicks, Stephen Michael Pratt of Arlington was driving a 59 Borg-vorg station wagon travelling east when he ran off the left of the highway on the curve in front of DariDelite. When Pratt attempted to get the vehicle back on the pavement it over turned. Pratt was not injured. He was charged with reckless driving, said Mr. Dicks. An eleven year old brother of the operator, George Lyon Pratt, a passenger in the car sustained contusions of the right eye %nd lacerations of (Continued on page 2) Celebrate Golden Wedding Mi.

Freeman said recently in announcing details of the program. The recently authorized program is aimed at long-term land-use changes on millions of acres, with major benefits to both farm and nonfarm people. “Our natural environment includes much more than the air, soil, and water, which are essential to life," the Secretary said. "It provides beauty, the opportunity for outdoor recreation, the protection of wildlife, and a host of other natural values. "If those of us who are dedicated to conservation are to properly serve our growing population, as well as latei generations, then we must provide for the multiple use of our resources in ways that insure their renewal for future use. "Nearly three-fourths of the United States mainland is in private ownership, and it follows" that a big opportunity for conservation lies with farmers, ranchers, and other rural landowners. The CAP will give us a chance to shift some really significant acre* ages to public benefit uses." James E. Warren, Chairmaq Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation State Committee points out that the Cropland Adjustment Program is aimed at removingfpdm surplus pi$duction up tp 40 million acres for periods of 5 to 10 years. Emphasi^will be on shifting this land into public benefit uses which also conserve soil and water to meet future needs./ rarucipanis in cne program Will receive adjustment payments related to the value of the crops normally produced on the land. They also will be eligible for conservation costshare payments on the divertecHand. And those who agree to permit free public access for fishing, hunting, hiking, and trapping in accordance with appropriate State and Federal regulations may get additional per-acre payment. A wildlife advisory board is being appointed by the Secretary to recommend the most effective procedures for expanded use of surplus crop acreage in fostering wildlife and increasing hunting and fishing recreational opportunities. All of the land bpcen out of production under tK program will be put to conservation uses. In addition to conservation practices, wildlife plant ings and vegetative cover assistance will be authorized for preserving open space and natural beauty. Other practices authorized for costshare assistance fall within the general category of preventing air and water pollution practices^ and measures to provide better outdoor recreation. The program will be administered by Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committees. Full details on how the program applies to an individual farm is available in the ASCS county office.

H. Lyne 1. What is Urea? Urea is a synthetic that can be used as a protein supplement in feeding ruminants. Urea is manufactured from a series of chemical processes involving coal, air and water. 2. How is Urea used by ruminants? a. Numerous investigations have shown that when urea is added to a suitable ration for ruminants, the bacteria la the rumen can convert it more or less completely into protein in their cells during the fermentation which occurrs there normally. The urea is first changed rapidly into ammonia in the rumen by these ruinen bacteria in the building of their protein. Further on in the digestive process of the cow, the bacteria is digested, and the protein in the body of the bacteria is made available to the animal. b. Most feed grade urea is 45% nitrogen. Crude protein is defined as the nitrogen content of a feed multiplied by 6.25 therefore 45% nitrogen feed grade urea is 281% protein or 45x6.25 • 281 c. Urea is 90 - 100% digestible by ruminants depending on several conditions. (1) Urea should be fed more than once per day with other feeds to obtain maximum efficiency. (2) Digestibility improves as the animals become used to urea. (3) Urea should be fed to animals after the rumen is fully developed. Before the rumen is fully developed the bacterial population will’not be adequate for full utilization. Urea should not be fed to small calves as a source of protein. d. A ration containing a readily available amount of energy should be fed with urea to obtain maximum results. When urea is added to a ration which ha8 the usual amount of cereal grains, the conversion into protein is satisfactory, as the starch in the grain furnishes plenty of readily available energy for the bacteria. 3. How can Urea be fed with corn silage? Urea is added to corn silage at the time of filling by spreading 10 lbs. 6f urea per,ion on the wagon before it is blown into the silo. One or two loac)s of silage should be weighed to determine the amount of urea to be added. Thereafter, filling wagons to the same level MOZINGO BILLARDS SNACK BAR TABLE TENNIS HOURS: Mon., Thors., Fri. 10 to 11 Sat. 9 to 11 - Sun. 1 to ? *■ Vi Mile North on Route 28 CULPEPER, VA.

K prill result in about the same imount of urea required. 4. What ire the precautions associated with Urea? a. The urea is uniformly mixed by passing through self unloading wagons, the blower, and distributor. It is further mixed when the silage is removed from the silo and placed In a feeding bunker. The important thing to remember is that urea must be uniformly mixed with the silage. b. No more than 10 lbs. per ton should be used.. Urea is very unpalatible and silage may be refused by the cows if more than 10 lbs. per ton'ls used. Also, urea has no energy value and cannot be fed as a source of T.D.N. or N.E.c. Feed Grade Urea is recommended for livestock use. Small size particles will allow for uniform distribution in silo. This type of urea has been cleared for livestock feed by the Federal Food and Drug Admltilst ration. d. Urea is very toxic when utilized in large quantities at one time. All containers should be burned or buried after they have been emptied. 5. Urea is economical as a protein source. Normally, it cost.around 5(5 per pound or $100 per ton. 100 lbs 45% feed "grade urea costs $5.00 - 281% protein - 281% lbs. of protein to be utilized by a cow - 95% utilized 267 lbs of protein digested by the cow. 100 lbs. of S.B.O.M., 44% Protein Guaranteed, (42% D.

Urea is being used as a pro* tein supplement only because it is a cheaper source or protein than the protein supplements normally used.

Card Of Thanks I wish to express my appreciation to friends and relatives for gifts, food and the many kind gestures extended me and my children during the hoUy * Richard Menefee Paused: Peruse ..... And Ponder • • • • • -a An address to the VPI cadets Scholastic Awards Ceremony by George W. Litton, Extension Livestock Specialist Forces that pull downward toward mediocrity seem more numerous and to pull harder than forces that pull upward toward superiority. It's easier to go downhill, the laws of gravity assisting, and it seems to hold true for the issues of life. In matters of health, temptation for dissipation and overindulgence seem to pull strong er than practices of moderation. The ads say a man must use a particular brand of bourbon to claim distinction. Smokers will get black eyes rather than change brands and some even eat their hats over their smokes. Arlene Francis makes quite a to do over using Bufferin, and Bromo Seltzer is reputed to be a quick cure for overindulgence. Nobody ever says that prudence in the first place would eliminate the necessity of curing the ills. In matters of citizenship, it is easier to be an echo than a voice. It's effortless to echo the political beliefs of the party in power or the man running ahead. It’s more difficult to be a voice of concern for what is really just and fair. In matters of family and home, the divorce rate is high, crime rate is up, both juveniles and parents are delinquent. Forces favoring mediocrity have a greater pull than the forces that create family happiness and tranquility. It’s easier to buy a ticket and pay someone to amuse us away from home than to plan, teach and play at home with a growing son who needs our influence for character building. In matters of patriotism and country, there is real cash money in selling secrets and providing comfort for the enemy. The communistic appeal is greater ter some than the spirit of freedom expressed in Governor Patrick Henry's speech. It's too bad but true that the high road to honor is also the route as the late Sir Winston Churchill put it of "s^eat, blood, and tears". In matters of culture, my wife can go to a concert or buy -a- record-■-of-classical music or see a beautiful painting and become refreshed and recreated from it. But I let the forces of mediocrity cheat me, for the beautiful music to her is so much racket to me, and a trip to an art gallery just sharpens.my taste fora horse race. when I succumbed to the forces that persuaded me to avoid music and art appreciation when I chose my elective studies in college, they became my locked in mediocrity. In matters of religion, man’s tenderest most easily wounded spot is his spirit. It is, likewise, his most responsive for growth and development. The forces that pull him out of i Sunday School and away from .church are far stronger than the ones that pull him in, and this makes it too easy to neglect growth in this area. You, whom we honor today, and believe me it is one of the great thrills of my career to receive this invitation from Captain Marshall, you have at hand the most effective weapon, the surest cure, the greatest eradicator of mediocrity known... scholarship. So permit me to join with you fellow cadets the commandants staff, the administration and my faculty colleagues in hearty congratulations to you for winning the battle against mediocrity.

Security Change •Medicare" was not the only change made in Social security by the 1965 amfhdments to the social security law. Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, social security district manager in (Winchester, stated that while •medicare” was a major change, there were other important changes’ in the 1 §65 amendments. Mrs. Daly said that one such change, of importance to many workers, involved “tips”. He stated that tips under certain conditions will be considered wages beginning January 1, 1966, and must be reported for social security purposes from then on. To many people, this will mean higher social security benefits at retirement, in case of disability, or for their survivors if they should die. I To be included as wages, ' she stated, tips must amount ; to $20 or more in one month ; while working for any one em. ployer. Under the new amendments, the individual is required to . make a written report of his : cash tips to his employer at the end of each month if they total $20 or more. The employ er is responsible for reporting regular wages as well as tips to the Internal Revenue Service. He is also responsible for ; withholding social security tax i on both wages and cash tips reported to him. If regular wages are not enough to cover i the social security tax, the employee may give the employer funds for this purpose. • If the employer is not able to ; collect all the social security tax due on tips by the end of the 10th day after the end of the month in which the tips were reported, the employee will be required to pay any remaining tax directly to the Internal Revenue Service. If the employee reports his tips late, he will be liable for a penalty. The employee should keep a WILL PAY CASH for Aagus Bull 2 to 3 years old. Call after f>:30 p.m. Thursday or Friday 675-3328. Ip daily record of his tips to assist him in completing his written report to his employee The employer is required to keep a record of tips reported to him also and must include wages and tips on the employee’s W-2 Form. Mrs. Daly suggested thatem ployees check their social security record from time to time to be sure they are receiving credit for all their earnings. Any social security district office will provide a postcard form to use in requesting an earnings record summary. For further information about tips or any questions concerning social security, a person may telephone, write, or visit the nearest social s#* curity office. The Winchester Social Security office is located at 133 West Boscawen Street, or telephone 667-1511. Engine Lubrication An engine’s life depends on proper engine lubrication, says Easley S. Smith, agricultural engineer at Virginia Tech. Without good lubrication, your automobile engineregardless of type or manufacturer--will be ruined in a very short time. This applies to all engines whether in a truck, tractor, airplane j or lawn mower. Lubricants clean, reduce friction, aid in distributing heat and cooling engine parts, reduce wear, absorb shocks, help seal around pistons and prevent rust and corrosion. You can be assured of good lubrication by using a nigh quality oil meeting standards specified by the engine manufacturer, using an oil filter and changing it at recommended intervals, and changing oil at recommended intervals. Once it was felt that the better the oil, the longer it would stay clean, says Smith. This is not true, because most of the better engine oils contain both detergents and dispersants that hold onto dirt and keep dust, soot and carbon in suspension. Oil that looks clean when you drain it is a sure sign that these contaminants are still inside the [engine. Just as water with soap becomes discolored when washing dirty hands, so dc oils with additives become discolored as they clean an engine. Oil that darkens with use is really doing its job. The filter removes solid particles such as dust •breathed in” by the engine, carbon formed by the engine and small metal particles which result from normal engine wear. The real purpose of the filter is to make the engine last longer and not the ollv Most oil filters do not remove liquid contatninants such as unburned fuel, moisture condensation and acids resulting from products of combustion and oil oxidation. Most liquid contaminants accumulate during cold engine operation. Unburned fuel, resulting from rich fuel mixtures and vapor condensation in a cold crankcase are two causes. .More than one gallon of water is produced’as vapor in burning a gallon of fuel. Some of this vapor finds its way into the crankcase where it condenses and contaminates the oft. Once an engine is started^ it should be run long enough/to bring it to normal operating temperature before stepping. This permits vaporization of many of the liquid contaminants held in oil and helps eliminate them. With increased cold engine operation in winter, it is recommended that engine oil be changed more often during this period. If possible, change engine oil when the engine is hot. This aids in removal of sludge and other deposits from the crankcase. How Honeybees Pass The Winter Ever thought how honeybees are able to pass the winter in an unheated bee hive? You may have thought they “hivernate"—to coin a word! Actually, they must eat honey and produce heat all winter to survive. It caff be below zero outside and 90 degrees Fahrenheit inside the hive, says John M. Amos, bee specialist at Virginia Tech. This is a hot summer temperature and The owl is unable to move its eyes within their socket, and thus, must aim its head, rather than eye. To compensate, it is able to move its head in an almost complete circle, without moving the body. Smokey Says: You can call the signals! Jfrnmal ^Jarktrs H. C.

Bees fly very little when the temperature drops to 57 degrees, and they move about the hive very slowly. At 4! degrees inside the hive, the) form a ball or cluster over the honeycombs. The clustei is hollow and the bodies ol the bees fill several layers of cells irv the comb and between the combs to form i protective shield. A few bees on the inside vibrate theix wings and bodies to produce heat. Amos says the cluster remains in contact with hone) and consumes it slowly during the warmer periods ol winter. The colder the weather, the closer the beet move together to keep warm, _A colony will use only eight to twelve pounds of honey tc keep warm. However, wher they begin to rear young beet to replace those dying off, ii 1b then that honey and poller are needed in large quantities. Raising young begint in January or early February Occasional colonies may havt some young all winter ant this means the temperature ir the cluster is above 85 degreet all the time, says Amos. As bees age and die, the) drop to the bottomboard ol the hive. These dead beet are carried outside and dropped near the entrance on warn days. Large numbers of then at the front of the hive cause alarm to some beekeepers Actually, though, if the deat ones are outside you know the colony had to be alive to carry them1 out. Amos says mos of the dead bees will be fount in front of the hive in lj^jte winter and early spring. He adds, “As old bees die off, the population goes dowr and the strain of keeping the colony warm is greater, or survivors. This depletion ol the cluster continues until brood rearing begins ir earnest when the first poller is available from skunk cabbage and early maples. “It takes about a cell ol pollen and a cell .of honey t< grow a bee to maturity. From egg to adult requires aboul three weeks—possibly a few days more in winter. Wher the young are being reared, workers and nurse bees greatly increase their food consumj tion. The weight of the colon) goes down rapidly. Once brood rearing starts it is necessary for it to continue for the colony to develop normally. “Good colonies should have 40 or more pounds of honey in the fall to carry them through the winter. When foot WBLimmuimimumisM consumption is greatest, in March and April, cold, wet weather may confine bees,to their hives. Often this late confinement causes colonies to starve from the .lack of honey and pollen. The beekeeper can feed sugar syrup ’ and help bees stay alive1* until nectar and pollen are available for the bees to gather." mass Thur.-FrL-Sat., Jan. 6-7-8: Return from the Ashes Sun-Mon-Tue, Jan. 9-10-11: IN HARM'S WAY Wed. thru Set., Jan. 12 thru 15: iTHE SONS OF KATIE ELDER 1 Pins MUSTANG DRIVE-JN Fri-Sat, Jan. 7-8: FIRST RUN SHOWING “GIT” I Sunday (Only) Jan. 9: THE SABOTEUR and FERTILIZER SPREADING Magnesium or High Calcium.
