He had hfs first litter ready for market weighing an average of 200 pounds at five months of age. There are few adult swine producers who can do as well. His animals have done well at |the Orange Area Junior Swine Show and Sale in past years, also, We believe his records prove pigs from the sows and boar in our 4-H chain are worthy seed stock for any producer anywhere in Virginia to consider, j ' There was a total of 23 entries in the 1966 Litter Weight Contest. Alan Strawn of Bedford placed first with his litter jOf sixteen Yorkshires weighjing 657.60 pounds, thereby winning the $50 purchase certificate which will be honored at any sale held by Virginia Purebred Swine Producers.

At the west limits of Sperryville on Route 211, two pickups were involved in a crash. A 1963 Dodge operated by John William Judd of Luray and owned by the Government Park Service was struck by a 65-66 Chevrolet pickup operated by James Ashby Atkins of Sperry ville. The Park truck was heading west when the Atkins vehicle heading east crossed into the left lane and struck the right of the other vehicle. According to Trooper W. A. Buntin, both trucks were a total loss. Injured in the collision were Stanley Griffith of Luray who sustained lacerations of the head and George Atkins, also of Luray, who received a leg injury.

Johnson, ranger In charge of the North District of Shenandoah National Park, to the same position in the Central District, was announced today by Superintendent R. Taylor Hoskins, Hoskins said that Johnson's management of the protection activities in the North District had earned him consideration and selection for the same position in the more heavily-used Central District. The Central District contains the recently constructed Harry F. Byrd, Sr. Visitor Center, campgrounds, picnic areas, and the major portion of concessioner operated facilities in the Park. Johnson, a native of Sperryville, was recognized in January for having completed 20 years of Federal Government service. His Federal career began as a member of the U. S. Army. He served in the Army from 1942 until 1945, and following his discharge worked seasonally in Shenanddfoh as a Park ranger and fire control aid. In 1948, Johnson entered Virginia Polytechnic Institute at Blacksburg and graduated in 1953 with a B. S. degree in forestry and wildlife conservation. He continued to work as a seasonal Park employee during his college career, and thereafter until 1957 when he transferred to the Food and Drug Administration at Baltimore. Later that same year he returned to Shenandoah to accept permanent employment as a Park ranger. In 1960 he was ,promoted to the position he is leaving, which later that same year was upgraded because of increased responsibilities. Johnson, his wife, Stella, and their two sons, Dennis and Jim will reside in the residential area at Park Headquarters east of Luray.

Easter Pilgrims Flock To Tomb Washington—As Easter dawns in Jerusalem, a lone figure crosses a cobbled courtyard to unlock the heavy wooden ddors of the holiest shrine in Christendom. This is the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Jirst built in A.D. 326, the National Geographic Society says. It stands where, in Christian tradition, Christ was slain and buried. Richly ornamented altars and mosaics mark the site of the cru cifixion and tomb. Pilgrims from around the world have long come to wop ship at this hallowed spot in Bjresent-dav Jordan. Various Christian sects have their own chapels in the church, The major portion of the shrine is held by the Greek Orthodox Church, but the Roman Catholic, Armenian, Syrian, and Coptic churches are all represented. All sects have access to the main chapel above Christ’s supposed tomb. The Stone of Unction, hallowed by the tradi tion that mourners here anointed the body of Christ, has been worn smooth by the countless kisses and tears of worshippers. Many special ceremonies are . celebrated during Holy Week* On Maundy- Thursday, Greek and Armenian clergy don ornate vestments for the washing-of -the-feet cere mony. Commemorating the Last Supper, the Greek Patri arch humbly washes, the feet of 12 priests. On Easter Sunday, a silver altar is placed in front of Jesus’s tomb, and the sacred story of the Passion is chanted from the Bible. Since it was erected more than 1,600 years ago, the! Church of the Holy Sepulchre I has suffered considerable damage from the clashes of belligerent armies and militant faiths in the Holy City. The original marble-andgold edifice was built by the 4th-century Emperor Constan tine. The magnificent struo! Man! What Vegetables!

Sperryville, Va « Phone 987-2111 Your Southern States Cooperative Agency The annual 4-H Club supper, held Saturday evening, was most successful as is evidenced by these weary dishwashers and driers. The combined efforts of the youngsters, their parents, friends and Extension! Agents, made the annual event notable. ture was destroyed by invading Persians in 614, later rebuilt on a smaller scale, then burned and demolished by 11th century Moslems. The rock-cut tomb was a great prize for the Crusaders. Jerusalem’s streets ran with blood in A.D. 1099 as knights wrested the holy shrine from jMoslem control. The Crusaders rebuilt the church, but it was gutted by fire in 1808 and battered by an earthquake in 1927. After the earthquake, British mandate officials shored the interior and facade with steel scaffolding. Even this wellintentioned gesture contributed to the church’s decay. Scorching days and chilly Inights in Jerusalem made the scaffolding expand and contract, thus loosening the very stones supposedly being reinforced. General neglect of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre over the centuries may be ending. Recently, the three major sects whose shrines occupy the greater part of the church--Armenian OrthoJ dox, Greek Orthodox, and Ro-i man Catholic—began an ambii tious two-million-dollar building program designed to restore Christendom’s first; shrine to its original beauty. Is Your W-2 Withholding Stmt. Missing Some 11,597 federal tax returns without the required W-2 withholding statements have been filed so far this year by Virginia taxpayers and those in the five states comprising the IRS Mid-Atlan tic Region. This means a delay in the processing of refunds until the W-2 s can be obtained (from taxpayers according to James P. Boyle, IRS District Director for Virginia. Copy B of the W-2 state-! ment that employers are required to give employees is the one that should be attach ed to federal tax returns, he i said. | When returns are received, I in IRS offices without a W-2 for all incom&son which taxes have been withheld, a letter' requesting the missing docu; ment is sent to the taxpayer. 'Until the W-2 is received, lor an acceptable explanation !of why it cannot be supplied, processing of the return cani not be completed. One of the major reasons for delay in issuing refunds is the failure of taxpayers to include their correct Social Security number on the tax return. As of last week, the Director reported, 8,388 refunds had been delayed in Virginia and the other five states of the Mid-Atlantic Region, because of incorrect or missing Social Security numbers. Mr. Boyle reported that to date other refunds are being held up because of a variety of other errors or failures to comply with Instructions mail ed to each taxpayer with his tax forms. Tax returns filed up to last week included 15,938 without the signature of the taxpayer or in the case of a joint return without the signature of both the husband and wife. These will have to be sent back to the taxpayers before refunds can be processed. Returns with errors in arith metic which are causing delays in sending refunds so far tot^l 11,159 and returns where taxpayers have used the wrong tax table total 27,915. As of last week, Mr. Boyle said, the IRS Service Center in Philadelphia had processed 178,287 refunds of Virginia taxpayers for a total of $24,330,713.28.

This year's theme, 'Your Public Lands,” was chosen to acquaint the public with recrea Tional and commercial uses being permitted on their public owned lands and to stimulate interest in how these lands can be more fully utilized to meet the increasing demands of the future. The Game Commission currently owns over 136,000 acres of land, most of which is managed for public hunting. Three of these tracts are managed primarily as waterfowl refuges, and refuge areas are included within some of the other public hunting areas. All species of resident and migratory game found in Vir ginia may be bagged on one or another of these areas scattered from the Eastern Shore to the Southwestern mountains. In addition to hunting lands, I the Commission has construct ed 16 public fishing lakes total ing 1,456 acres to provide angling opportunity in areas with little acreage of impounded water. Two more such lakes are currently under construction. A total of 70 public boat landings have been or are being constructed on Virginia’s major waterways. The Commission has long maintained a policy of using hunters’ and fishermen’s money only for the development of facilities that these groups would use.

Earl Yancey, Amissville Junior Fireman, presents Amissville Fire Chief Everett Smith a check for $100 on behalf of this group at the annual banquet held Friday evening._ From The .Home Agent\ Pen By Miss Diane Brown We would certainly like to thank all of those 4-H’ers and parents for the big part they played last Saturday In helping to make our 4-H Supper a big success - without your find help and cooperation there would be no supper. I believe that this activity shows that the county supports their 4-H Club members In at least one way. A little late but nevertheless a hearty congratulations go out to Susan Dodson, Carter Moffett, Susan Payne and Warren Beebe. These senior 4-H mem bers competed In our county demonstration contests on March 11 and as a result have won the right to represent Rappahannock County at the district contest In April. This week, March 19-25, has been designated as National Poison Prevention Week The fact that this proclamation has been made shows that this is Indeed a sei-ious problem In our country. In this area of accidental poisonings,j we find that children are our greatest victims. Studies have shown that the list of common chemicals and drugs, accident ally swallowed In large amounts to cause severe Illness or death In young children was headed by aspirins (about 50%) bleaches (5.4%), kerosene (4.8%) laxatives (2.9%) and drain cleaners (2.9%). Soaps, cleaners, furniture polish, vitamins and disinfectants all claim their share, too. You can see that most of these are common household articles. Maybe we need to take little extra pains now to keep them away from children and avoid a much larger pain that could result from Improper use. *** DO YOU KNOW? There’s a big surprise In store for consumers—boneless roasts with no strings attached. Through a new meat-cutting method known as muscle-boning, meat retailers can debone roasts that will hold together without being tied. And once they are prepared, they can be cut across the grain without falling apart. There's an added advantage to muscle-boned meat. It’s a space-saver In the family freezer since there are no bones to worry about. RnppChats By W. H. Lyne Extension Agent, Agriculture We apologize for an error In Rapp--Chats in March 9th Issue. But 35% (thirty-five percent) of the 5500 acres of Meadowville loam (excellent for corn) In this county is being cropped. Miss Ruby In typing read my three for an eight. And, while referring again to the lack of our farmers using their soils for what they are best suited for, I got a copy of the special ASCS fenc ing practice approved to help farmers do this. Details are as follows. "This practice will be approved only where the fencing is an essential step in bringing about a needed land-use adjustment. The Soil Conserva tion Service is responsible for determining the measures needed to make the land use adjustment, including the need for and the location of the fence, the eligible Jand uses, and other measures needed for the protection and improvement of the land. These measures must be made a matter of record and the farmer must agree to carry them out. Failure to carry out these measures, either in 1967 or 1968 will be considered as failure to maintain the practice and the farmer will be required to refund the cost-share paid to him. Farm boundary fences, roadside fences, fences between fields of cropland, and the repair, replacement, or maintenance of existing fences will not qualify for cost-shar ing. This practice is applicable only where a new cross fence will separate land that should be and is intended to be devoted permanently to continu ous vegetative cover from land that should be and is intended to be devoted to crop production in crop rotation such as (1) separating good bottom land from strongly sloping hillside, (2) separating a flat hilltop or ridge from adjoining strongly sloping land, or (3) separating strongly slop ing land from more gently sloping land that can be crop ped safely providing needed Silk Mill Sales Room Front Royal, Virginia to MARCH 20 * 25 ■1967 Hours: Monday thru Friday - 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday - 8:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. .4 Come see what unbelievable prices we are having at our end of the year Inventory Sale.

Maximum Federal CostShare: (50% of cost). a. $1.35 per rod where barbed j wire fencing is constructed. b. $1.70 per rod where woven wire fencing is constructed. It is encouraging to note farm ers are becoming aware of this j assistance and taking advan-| tage of it. Edwin Scroggins, Jr., Manager of Mt. Vernon Stock Farm was the first. Edwin came by the office! with the problem of needing more home grown feed corn! silage in particular.

ICMEFUL ontii< HOME STRETCH AVO/P FAU( AMP /NPU/f/fS... C/£f A PALAWCEP CTEPLAPQER fOR CUMBJRO-— NEVER A CRA/R SOX OR SERCR / The housewife who stands on a chair or box to hang curtains is inviting a fall. Accidental falls at home injure and kill thousands of Americans each year. These falls claimed the lives of 11,900 in 1965, the last year such figures are available. To avert these mishaps, the American Insurance Associa tion recommends the following safety rules: —Use a balanced ladder to stand on — never a chair, box or bench. —Don’t let stairway rugs or pads become loose or frayed. Keep throwrugs firmly anchored down. —Don’t apply so much polish on floors that they are slippery. — Equip your bathtub with a good handhold and a non-skid mat. — And, pick up all objects on the stairs and floors that can make one trip. Taxpayers Responsible For Entries on Returns Taxpayers are responsible for all entries and supporting documents in their Federal income tax returns. Tax payers planning to seek help on their 1966 returns should keep this in mind, District Director of Internal Revenue James p. Boyle said today. No matter who prepares the return, the taxpayer himself is responsible for the correctness of it. This means that he will be responsible for full payment of any additional tax, permittee, and interest that may result from an incorrectly prepared return. Taxpayers should, therefore, be wary of the practitioner who guarantees a tax refund on returns he prepares.

Accidental Poisoning Kills 80 Virginians Accidental poisoning claimed the lives of approximately 80 Virginians in 1966, the State Department of Health reported this week. In disclosing the figure in connection with the current National Poison Prevention Week the department pointed out an apparent decline in such deaths from 1965, when the total was 86. The new total is a preliminary figure for 1966. It could be changed slightly by amended medical examiners' reports, or by reports from neighboring states of Virginians treated there before succumbing to accidental poi soning. Death certificates received by the department's Bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics indicated that alcohol continued to be the chief cause of fatal poisoning, with 37 deaths attributed to it in 1966, up one from the previous year. Other leading causes of death by accidental poisoning last year were (with the 1965 figure in parentheses) other and unspecified solid and liquid substances with 9 (6); motor vehicle exhaust gas with 8 (8); and barbituric acid and derivatives with 4 (9). Tied for fifth place with three each in 1966 were other carbon monoxide gas; petroleum products; industrial solvents; other analgesic and soporific drugs; and other and unspecified drugs. In 1965, their frequencies as death causes ranged from one for petroleum products to seven for other carbon monoxide gas While these were the fatal cases, aspirin continued to be a leading cause of accidental poisoning, although there were only two fatalities reported. The Medical College of Virginia, one of the state's 19 poison control centers, reported that aspirin was involved in 28 per cent of all cases reported there for 1966, a drop from slightly more than 34 per cent in 1965. The leading causes of accidental poisonings continued to be medications — infernal and external -- with 65 per cent of cases reported. Of the remainder, household materials were major causes — especial ly petroleum distillates such as kerosene, gasoline and fuel oil. Others were cleaners, bleach and furniture polish. Of the aspirin poisonings, the center at MCV reported 116 cases involving baby forms of the product, and 91 involving adult forms. Its ready availability and common use appear to make it more likely to be ingested. To reduce accidental poisonings, the department's Bureau of Health Education offered these suggestions; 1. Don’t keep or leave potential poisons — medicines, furniture polishes, and sprays of various kinds -- where small children can reach them 2. Don't U6e cups or glasses to keep non-edible items like kerosene. Such containers are associated with food and drink by children. 3. Always read the label and follow the directions, no matter how frequently the product has been used. If the label is missir.^. replace it by using adhesive tape and a ballpoint pen. If you’re unsure of the substance, discard it. 4. Discard old medicines — their chemical composition may change over a period of time and make them unsafe. Pour the medicine down the drain; then if you rinse the container before putting it out, you may protect an inquisitive pet from possible harm. 5. Teach children to respect medicines. Don't refer to medi cines as •candy" to make them more palatable — candy is something a child may eat when there’s no adult present^. Smokey Says: ST A-T [S.TICS Ryulanon Increase MORE .
