Biddle announce the formation of a partnership, to be called the Rappahannock Real Estate Company. The company will furnish complete real estate services for the Rappahannock County people and adjoining’ counties, including listings, sales, appraisals, brokerage, property management, and zoning information. The firm will have offices in the Sutler’s Cabin on Highway #211 just west of Sperryville. The new firm’s telephone numbers will be 987-8176 and 987-2414. Mr. Pillar is a long time real estate broker in the County and Col. Biddle has been with Mr. Pillar for the past 18 months. During this period the two have'sold a total of 30 properties ranging from farms in the 80-400 acre category to unimproved tracts of varying sizes as well as single family dwellings. urasshoppers A Plague Large green grasshoppers, large brown grasshoppers, small light brown grasshoppers are infesting southern and eastern portions of Rappahannock County in numbers of economic importance. O. W. Isakson, Economic Insect Reporting Service at request of County Extension Agent, W. H. Lyne, visited the county last Friday afternoon and found infestation of this insect to be 40-60 per square yard in the Amissville area. This figures to be 193,600 to 290,400 grasshoppers per acre! Lyne says, he doesn’t know the amount a grasshopper can devour in a day but he has seen plants completely stripped of all foliage in the Castleton area where the insect first attracted attention in 1964. Mr. Isakson collected specimens to take to Blacksburg for positive identification as there were kinds included which he had never seen before. Also, Mr. Isakson. expressed belief that it would be a good investment for farmers to spray their fields next spring. Off the cuff he felt Malathion to be the best chemical to use on field crops; Sevin the best In home gardens. Since all Insecticides must be handled with utmost precaution and since this insect has not reached infestations of economic proportions elsewhere in Virginia, positive chemical control recommendations must be worked out and announced later. Sevin at 1.4 pounds per acre is now approved in home Hardens. !
