To Be Made Growers who have participated in the 1966 feed grain program will begin getting final program payments soon, H. S. Barksdale, chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, said today. The payments will cover both diversion and price-support payments. Growers had the opportunity to request that half the estimated diversion payment be made in advance at signup time in the spring, and where this was done the payment now available represents the balance of the diversion payment due and all of the pricesupport payment earned under the program. In total, these payments are estimated at about $25,000.00 for the expected 86 county participants in the 1966 program. The payments will raise returns from the 1966 feed grain crops substantially. Farmers participating by diverting acreage under the pro gram are also eligible for loans on their entire 1966 crops of corn, barley, and grain sorgnum. The diversion payment for shifting part of the farm’s feed grain base to a conserving use does not apply to the first 20-percent diversion except on farms with small bases. The price-support payments are earned on the projected production from the acreage scheduled for planting up to 50 percent of the farm’s total feed grain base for the farm; one or more of the feed grains -- corn, grain sorghums, or barley—could be planted on the acreage, or soybeans could be planted in lieu of a feed grain. These pr ice-support payments are assured no matter what disposition is made of the crop. The Chairman said that there should be no delay in the prompt receipt of the payment where the dlverted-acreage and program provisions have been met. The payment will be made after the application form is completed and signed. Farmers were also reminded by the Chairman that, even though program payments are to be made in .the near future, the approved conserving practices are expected to be carried out on designated diverted acreage throughout the remainder of the year. Byrd, Robertson Hold Wide Margin In County Primary Voting Tuesday Senator Harry F. Byrd, Jr. William B. Spong, Jr. U. S. Senator Harry F. Byrd, Jr. outdistanced his opponent Armistead L.

Below are unofficial returns by districts in Rappahannock.; DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY RESULTS — 1966 Germanna Colonists Reunion on Sunday The annual reunion of descendants of Germanna colonists will be held Sunday, July 17, at Siegen Forest on Rt. 3, between Culpeper and Fredericksburg, Registration will be from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. with picnic lunch scheduled for 1:00 p.m. Featured address at 11:30 a.m. will be “German-American Folklore,” by Dr. Rimer L. Smith, of Madison College faculty, Harrisonburg. Dr. Smith has written several books on the subject and is currently engaged in research for an additional publication. Reunions of descendants of the first Germanna settlers are held annually on the third Sunday in July. The first colony was established in 1714 under the patronage of Governor Alexander Spotswood in a horsehose bend of the Rapidan River. It was then the northwest frontier of Virginia' settlements. The site is now! in the northeast corner of Orange County. Other colonJ les were located in the vicinity in 1717 and 1719. By standards of their time, they were educated people, bringing their own Protestant mini ster and their own schoolmas ter for children of the settlement. At Germanna in 1716 Spotswood’s company was outfitted for the celebrated expedition over the Blue Ridge, commemorated in the gem-studded golden horseshoes that he presented to his associates. From 1721 to 1731 Germanna was the county seat of the new county of Spotsylvania. Within the same period and for some years longer it was the residence of ex-Governor Spotswood in his “Enchanted Castle.” Here Colonel William Byrd visited him in 1732 and from here traveled with his host the 13 miles by coach to inspect the iron mines. In 1726 the second colony (1717) began moving up the Robinson River to Madison County and there built Hebron Lutheran Church. In 1956, descendants of the colonists formed the Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies and obtained a charter. They purchased 270 (Continued on page 2) Fire and Rescue Squad Notes Amissville Fire Company answered a call Friday night to Lake Wilson where a dump was burning.

They will arrive back in Winchester July 26. Funds Allocated for Wildlife Restoration Virginia has been granted a preliminary allocation of $319, 765 in Federal Aid funds for Fish and Wildlife restoration during the current fiscal year, according to Game Commission Executive Director Chester F. Phelps. Of this total $269,342 in Pittman-Robertson money is earmarked for wildlife restoration and $50 422 in Dingell-Johnson funds is earmarked for fish restora tion. This initial appropriation usually amounts to a little more than half of the total amount allocated to the various states during the year. The final distribution is adjusted on the basis of the land area and license sales of each state. The Pittman -Rober tsor funds come from an 11% of federal manufacturer’s tax on sporting arms and ammunition while the Dingell-Johnson funds come from a similar 10% federal tax on fishing tackle and this year's allocation reflects approximately a 20% increase over the amount initially allocated to Virginia last year under the program. Pittman-Robertson funds are used by the Came Commission to finance habitat improvements on all National Forests, to construct access roads and prepare food plantings in other areas, to maintain and improve areas for waterfowl, and to collect and evaluate statistical data on wildlife populations. DingellJohnson funds help finance fish eries management investigations on impoundments, to evaluate fishing waters and develop plans for their improvement, to study the causet and control of fish diseases and to evaluate fish management regulations.

I feel it is appropriate here to express appreciation to the Carrigans on behalf of our town and surrounding areas. We would also like to thank the ladies who helped to arrange and serve the delightful supper for the benefit of the Rappahannock Library. i Emily B. Miller Vo. Traffic Statistics For First Six Months Richmond . - Virginia ended the first six months of 1966 with 479 traffic deaths reported, as compared with 484 for the same period of 1965, Colonel C. W. Woodson, Jr., Superintendent of State Police and Chairman of the Governor's Highway Safety Committee, announced today. Although Colonel Woodson pointed out that the reduction of five deaths was certain to be curtailed or wiped out by late reports and the deaths of persons now carried as injured, but whose deaths revert to the dates of injury for statistical purposes, he noted that traffic volumes for 1966 are up about five percent over those of 1965. This rise in traffic volumes coupled with the holding down of deaths gives Virginia an estimated rate of deaths per each 100 million miles of Of)ttzl funeral ^Jarlurs H. C. GEEST, Director MS Sperqnrillc Road Culpeper, Virginia Christopher Geest R. T. Lane AMBULANCE WITH OXYGEN travel of 4.3. The rate for allj of 1965 was 5.2. The national rate for this year stands at about 5.3, he stated. Pedestrian deaths showed a sharp drop of from 85 to 67. Rural deaths were up from 371 to 381 while urban ones were down from 113 to 98. There were seven motorcycle deaths Deaths showed good reductions in January and February due largely to very adverse weather and driving conditions They rose sharpley in March and April, went down in May arid rose again in June. April saw an unprecedented, for the month, 112 deaths. "We have an excellent chance of achieving our first death reduction in six years. Excellent records were set for both the Memorial Day and Fourth of July weekends, but we have August, the most dangerous month of they year, and the fall months to face, he concluded. Hiram M. Smith, Jr. Director, Public Information Help for Homemakers Homemakers across the state have recently sought answers to these questions from their Extension home agents. Maybe you have been wondering about some of these topics, too. Answers are sup plied by home economics specialists at Virginia Tech. Q. What product is recommended for removing paint and varnish? A. A commercial paint and varnish remover is recommended for this job. In selecting a brand, you should remember that water may damage the patina of the wood and raise the grain. A semipaste type remover which is neutralized by washing the furniture with alcohol or turpentine is generally easier for the amateur to use. Be sure to follow the manufact urer's directions. Q. What wood furniture can be most effectively antiqued? A. Any wood furniture can be antiqued and it is just as EVERYONE COME TO SPERRYVILLE FIREMEN’S ANNUAL Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday July 13,14,15,16 SPERRYVILLE CARNIVAL GROUNDS r RIG PARADE^ THURSDAY JULY 14th starting at 7:00 p.m. EDT PLATE SUPPER $1.25 Thursday Night Only ll Fun for All - All Is Fun Bring the Whole Family.!

I would not advise covering a piece of fine cabinet wood with paint, however, if the furniture is of mixed woods, or of nondescript wood, painting it may be the best solution. Q. What causes blasting of buds on peony plants? A. Probably Botrytis blight.' This may be prevented by carefully cleaning the bed in the fall and by keeping it clean of dead leaves all season., Spraying with bordeaux mixture every ten days from the time the leaves show until the flowers open is a good control measure. Late frost in spring may also kill buds. Q. What variety of carrots is best suited to Virginia soils? A. Nates is probably the best variety for the home garden. Another variety to try is Danvers.

An invitation is extended the public i to the service which begins at I 11 a.m. Nurse* Training Set in Culpeper The Culpeper' School of Practical Nursing Is now receiving applications for admission to its pre-clinical phase which commences on August 26.

Risk ofjetanus Increases in Summer Tetaniis Isn't one of the imllj portant killers in the United States—but it is important to those who contract it, and to those who experience the dis comfort that often attends the emergency treatment -used to yprevent it. Risk of tetanus increases with warm weather and outdoor activities; it decreases in any weather with toxoid immunization. Tetanus spores can be found in soil throughout most of the United States. They can be picked up by plants or animals. A splinter,, a bite, a cut or a thorn scratch can introduce the spores into the body of a victim. The re, they grow into mi croscopic bacteria, which be gin multiplying, in the process releasing a deadly poison which attacks nerve centers. Convulsions and muscle spasms follow. out tne danger concerning tetanus isn't limited to the half-dozen or so cases that actually occur annually in Virginia, the State Department of Health points out. There is also the possibility of severe reaction to the horse serum base of the tetanus antitoxin that must be given in cases in which there has been no previous treatment, or no record exists of prior lmmu nization. Usually, the first nerves affected by tetanus are those of the head and neck which control the chewing muscles and cause the condition that is the disease's second name— lockjaw. Deaths from tetanus, the State Health Department advises, are preventable through immunization with tetanus toxoid. Such protection provides long-term immunity. There is rarely any reaction to this vaccine--unlike tetanus antitoxin, the treatment that often must be given to a person as an emergency measure, Reactions to the antitoxin’s horse serum base occur in about one case in 10. The reactions include allergies, hives and serum sickness. More serious reactions require hospitalization, but ^without earlier administering of the toxoid, the antitoxin may be necessary to save a life. The antitoxin’s protection Services News Second Lieutenant Marvin R. Bradford III, whose parents live in Flint Hill, Va., completed a nine-week basics officer course at the Army Quar ter master School, Fort Lee, Va., June 27. Lieutenant Bradford received instruction in petroleum products, supply by airdrop, food service in field and combat, clothing supply, and duties of supply officers. The lieutenant entered the Army last April. The 22-year-old officer is a 1961 graduate of Rappahannock .County High School, Washington. A member of Phi Beta Lambda and Alpha Kappa Psi fraternities and the Scabbard and Blade Society, Lieutenant Bradford received a B. S. degree in 1965 from the Virginia Polytechnic Institute in Blacksburg. Pvt. Charles L. Smith, 21 son of Mrs. Eva L. Smith, of Flint Hill, Va., completed a 21-week field radio repair course at the Army Southeast ern Signal .School, Fort Gordon, Ga,, July 1. During his training, he learn ed electrical fundamentals and was trained to service and repair different types of radio transmitters and receivers. In struction was also given in the operation of testing equip ment, ranging from tube testers to- signal generators and frequency meters. lasts only a matter of weeks A reaction to horse serum is far more likely if an emergency rises again; anyone who has had to take the antitoxir "would be wise to get the toxoid' several weeks later. An estimated 75 percent of the United States population lacks immunity to tetanus. Pro tection by the toxoid should be reinforced after a few years by booster shots, and most people fail to get these. Mortality is highest among the elderly who never have had any immunization protection at all. 5 centuries have passed since Gutenberg developed the printbeen published.

It will ring merrily in her garden all The gourds that Suzy grew in her garden last year were used for ornamente in the house right up until Thanksgiving. By then their colors had faded so she carefully put them away to dry because she had in mind another use for them. Now she has taken them out and is busily making a wind bell from one of them. It’s very easy to do. With a sharp knife she cut off the bottom of the gourd evenly all around. Then she scraped out the dry seeds. That left a shell for the wind bell. up near me stem or the gourd Suzy made a little hole with the tip or the knife. Now she is pulling two metal bells, which she has wired together with florist's wire, into the gourd shell. The tip of the wire is through the hole near the gourd stem and, as soon as she has decided how long she wants the bells to hang (and therefore how long the wire should be left), shell wind the end of the wire around the gourd stem to hold the bells in place. ^ Now tt1*1 Suzy has to do is find a place in the garden where the breezes blow and will cause the light-weight gourd shell to swing back and forth while the bells inside tinkle merrily. Tourists Offered Health Protection ;f1 Thp^ protection Virginia offers to tourists’ health is described in the current issue of the Virginia Health Bulletin. Both Virginians and out-ofstate tourists are expected to travel in the Old Dominion in great numbers again this summer. The establishments thai serve them have to meet state regulations, the State Department of Health publication asserts. it notes that tourism is an all-year business in Virginia, with most of the travel taking place in the summer months. For the.mobile multitudes, the state offers assurances of safe healthful places to visit. There are more than 11,000 public eating places and more than 2,000 lodging establishments subject to state inspection and permission to operate. In addition, the State Health Department is involved in the regulation of tourist campgrounds, of which there now are 85 with operating per mits. Sanitation, refrigeration, sewage disposal andwa te r purification are among the department's concerns. It's interested also in safety, and cooperates with other agencies interested in safe environments: the state fire marshal’s office, safety workers in the Department of Labor and Industry, the Governor’s Smokey Says: ^OLD yotfP> CftUS^ '%>UR 5AA° A ... Good old mountain music Highway Safety Committee and the Department of Conservation and Economic Development. *For increasing numbers of Virginia’s younger residents," the Bulletin states, "summer means a special adventure, away from home and family—a trip to a summer camp." How the State Health Department works to assure a safe setting for the campers is described in the Bulletin, Which reports that department regulations deal with camp location, drainage, waste disposal, food handling and general sanitation. A parent may send his child to a permit-bearing summer camp with confidence that the operation has had to meet requirements that will promote a safe and healthful environment, the magazine says.

This provides that persons now age 72 or who will be 72 before 1968 and who have no coverage under social security may receive a $35 per month pension administered through the social security system. The money to pay these some 370,000 people will come from the General Treasury of the United States, not from Social Security Trust Funds. For people reaching age 72 in 1968 or later at least 3 quarters of coverage will be necessary." The number of quarters will increase by 3 each year. This new type of pension will be first paid for the month of October. All those eligible who have filed for hospitalization insurance will also be considered to have filed for this pension. Any additional information needed by social security will be solicited from the individual involved. He need not contact the Social Security Administration to file a new claim.

Faulconer of Norfolk, president of the American Cancer Society’s Virginia Division. About 85,000 Americans will develop skin cancer this year and much of it will be attributable to over-exposure to sunshine, he said. The So ciety hopes that these people will see their doctors early and receive prompt treatment. During the summer months, the Society’s Virginia Division is focusing attention upon skin cancer, which is mostly preventable and highly curable in its early stages, as part of a nation-wide program to raise the cure rate for vari ous sites of cancer. Dr. Faulconer said that a new color film, “Sense In The Sun," and an educational leaflet by the same name have been produced as weapons in this campaign. With showings of the film on Virginia television stations this summer and wide distribution of the leaflet throughout the state, the Virginia Division hopes to increase the public’s awareness of the causes and preven tion of skin cancer. .Sense In The Sun tells an interesting story about a fish erman who has earned his livelihood working long hours in a small boat in the hot sun. When he develops a sore on the cheek which does not heal, he visits his physician without delay. As a result of this early action, the cancer is removed by a simple surgical procedure in the physician’s office. Among the points made in the film is that prolonged and excessive exposure to sunlight is a definite factor in the deCountry Property Wanted Small Farms - Large Estates We have buyers for land in Rappahannock County All inquiries confidential Contact: Eileen Day Marshall, Va. 364-2121 with Thomas & Company Middleburg, Va. 687-6500 Can Us For i Shengas Corp.

The physician-narrator of “Sense In The Sun” warns, “It’s not only fishermen who have to have to be careful.” The film's message is also meant for others who spend long hours in the sun yea rafter year-construction workers, farmers, and outdoor workers of all sorts, as well as those funlovers who swim, boat, golf and sunbathe. The Society's new leaflet, “Sense In The Sun,” also stresses the importance of prevention of skin cancer and urges all to develop a healthy respect for the sun. The leaf let cautions, “Take your sun shine in small doses. For pro longed exposure, weara broad brimmed hat; a long-sleeved shirt; use a beach unbrella apply a screening lotion or cream to protect you skin. In other words, use common sense in the sun.” “Sense In The Sun” is a 14minute, 16mm, color-sound film and is available through any of the Society’s 104 Local Units in Virginia for free show ings to audiences of all age groups. Free copies of the leaflet, “Sense In The Sun,” may also be obtained from any Local Unit of the American Cancer Society. | Boston News Hy Mrs. Alice Dorsey Mrs. Ray Frazier entered Culpeper Memorial Hospital Thursday night.

Health and Safety High blood pressure, more properly called arterial hypertension, is an abnormal state of the circulation that may be a cause as well as a result of arterial diseas^say6 a pamphlet from the American Medical Association called “Your Blood Pressure". , Four of every five cases of persistently increased blood pressure are known as primary or essential hypertension, for which no underlying cause can be identified, says the AMA publication. It often occurs in those with a family history of increased blood pressure. The other one-fifth of the cases are called secondary hypertension, which means tbat the cause is known to be some defect or disease. Hypertension requires a life time of management. The patient and his doctor, working together, plan a living pattern, supplemented by various medical procedures, that will result in the longest and most useful life that the patient can live, even though the doctor may never know the cause of his patient’s hypertension. In untreated hypertension, the course from onset to death is approximately twenty years The first two-thirds is without symptoms, and can go undiscovered unless the patient undergoes periodic health examinations, particularly in the middle years. The last onejhird of the twenty years is complicated by failure of the heart, the brain or the kid neys, aione or m commnation. Once organ failure begins, the average survival of die untreated patient is about six years. Under treatment, a longer and more comfortable life is to be expected. Men usually present themselves for diagnosis at a more advanced stage of the disease than do women and have a higher incidence of the more severe forms. Hypertension produces a higher incidence of coronary disease in men and of brain complications in women. Women tolerate elevated blood pressure better than men. Among two comparable groups, three times as many of those treated than of those not treated were living after five years. It is highly important that there be close rapport between the patient and his physician. It is essential that the patient understand his disease know the need for continued treatment, and be willing to tolerate the occasional undesireable and unpleasant side effects of some of the drugs used. He must look to the long term good to be obtained. . President Monroe was the last president to wear knee breeches.
