Fire companies from Sperryville, Washington Flint Hill and Culpeper responded, but their efforts to extinguish the blaze proved futile as flames licked their way through tons of hay, hundreds of tires and numerous other items. The engine companies did prevent the flames from spreading to other structures on the densely populated street and kept the fire away from a storage tank of liquid nitrogen on the Coop supply yard. They were on the scene for more than three hours that night and Sperryville returned about 8 a.m. the next morning when portions of the debris began to smoulder. Loss of destroyed and damaged stock of the Coop was estimated at $50,000 by company officials and included paint, tires, appliances, fertilizer, feed, seed, orchard chemicals, garden tillers, hardware and related supplies, The building was owned by James W. Fletcher and C. E. Johnson, Jr., both of Sperryville. An additional loss was sustained by B. M. Varner of Sperryville who had stock valued at over $4,000 stored in a portion of the building which he rented. This included supplies used in his electrical business. According to P. Lee Thornton, Manager of the Cooperative, the firm is still operating and may be reached at the same phone number. Some supplies have been brought in [from the neighboring headquarters in Culpeper and truck jservice is available from jthere, so service will not be interrupted to a great extent. A fire sale to be handled by public auction is scheduled for 10 a.m. Saturday morning at the fire scene. The Board of Directors of the Cooperative named a committee to select a new place of operations and the committee has chosen the building in Sperryville formerly occupied by the Rappahannock Apple Packing Plant. Officials of the parent plant in Culpeper said the cooperation of Rappahannock people had been overwhelming and most appreciated as many offers of aid had been forthcoming. A Culpeper fireman was treated in Culpeper Memorial Hospital and later taken to University of Virginia Hospital, Charlottesville with possible inhalation of chemical fumes. However, he was treated and returned home about 2 a.m. with no apparent serious effects. Sweetheart Campaign The Sweetheart Campaign at Rappahannock County High School is underway and progress is steady as six young ladies compete for the title. Candidates for the Sweetheart crown are Catherine Stringfellow, Mary Lynn Smelley, Joan Kay Welch, Teresa Cordani, Beverly Payne and Eleanor Rector.

Low Overhead Is the Difference Feed Grain Offers Advance Payments Advance payments will continue under ’68 commodity programs. Advance payments to farmers participating in the feed grain program will be continued in 1968. To obtain an advance payment, farmers may apply for It at the time they sign up to participate in the program. The signup began February 5 and will continue through March 15, 1968. Mr. H. S. Barksdale, Chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, explains that the advance payment will be 50 percent of the feed grain acreage diversion payment. Advance payments will not be made on wheat marketing certificates or on feed grain price support payments. Under the feed grain program, diversion payments on the larger farms will be made on acreage withheld from corn or grain sorghum production above the qualifying 20percent of the base. This additional diversion may total up to 50 percent of the base, or 25 acres, whichever is larger. The diversion payment rate per acre will be 45 percent of the total local price support (county loan rate plus the price-support payment) times the yield. (The total, local price support in Rappahannock County is $1.54 per bushel for corn and $2.23 per hundredweight for sorghum.) For the larger farms, no diversion payment will be made on the qualifying 20 percent. Special provisions continue to be available for small farms. If the farm has a feed grain base of 25acres or less, the diversion payment will be approximately 20 percent of the total local support times the yield on the fir6t 20 percent of the base and at the regular 45 percent payment rate on the remaining acreage diverted to conserving uses. As in 1967, producers with corn-grain sorghum bases up to 125 acres will have the option in 1968 of temporarily reducing their bases to 25 acres and being eligible for the small-farm provisions. Under these circumstances, feed grain cannot be planted on the farm If the grower is to remain eligible for program benefits. Rapp-Chats By W. H. Lyne About 95 bulls will sell at the Performance Tested Sale to be held at Culpeper March 8, at 12 noon. A. L.

February 13 Flint Hill homemakers’ club will meet with Mrs. Barbara Gentry at 7:30 p.m. with the program being presented by Mrs. Putnam. Note Date Change Attention 4-H’ers H - A 4-H County Council meeting has tentatively been set for March 24, 1968. All Club officers are urged to make plans to attend this meeting as business includes projects for‘68; the 4-H supper and county demonstration contests. In addition - leader training for all Club officers. We will let you know about this individually as plans for place, time are finalized. Many of you may be in the market for home furnishings this year-or even if you’re just an “onlooker" you maybe interested in the trends in this area of spring and fall. A knitted fabric made of vinyl plastic is designed for botfi clothing and upholstery and is coming in ‘68. It’s now being experimented on in pillow cases. Much to the relief of many, I’m sure is the change in decorative fabric design. Colors will be softer with colors used being the more subtle - mature colors. Patterns will not be as big, daring and bold as they have been in the past, instead they will be broken into more intricately drawn, many facet areas. From furniture land, we see the following trends: once again curves are important. This time it’s laminated on, and in mirrored steel contour ed for lounging. Many chairs are being made of steel, fiberglass and laminated wood. In woods we see the return of the ash blond with the light, waxy beige woods with bare grains being important. If you're in the market for rugs, the big news is in the small pattern. Many new designs are being used in even newer fibers. Finally in accessories - interest still shows us using foliage plants, indoors as well as out. Both the container and the plant add interest, color and distinction to your room.

Until now, for a child to be considered dependent upon h i s mother and therefore eligible for monthly payments when she died, retired, or became disabled, she needed to have worked under social security for at least 1 1/2 years out of the last three years, unless she was actually supporting the child. The amendments eliminate this recent-work requirement. Beginning with checks in March 1968, benefits are payable to the child of a woman worker who has died, retired, or become entitled to social security disability benefits if she has accumulated enough social security credit to be “fully insured’*, whether or not those credits were for recent work under social securi ty. Some widowers who were dependent on a wife at the time of the wife’s death and some husbands who were dependent on a wife at the time of her retirement or disability may now also get benefits under this provision. _ Another very important change in the law makes it possible for the disabled widow, or disabled divorced wife, of a worker to receive disability benefits beginning at age 50. This provision also applies to the disabled widower who was dependent upon his wife at the time of her death. Under the old law a widow could not get social security benefits until she reached 60, unless she had In her care a child who was entitled to payments based on her husband’s earnings. Now a widow whose husband has worked long enough under social security can be eligible for monthly benefits as early as age 50 if she is severely “disabled". A widow is considered “disabled" if she has a mental or physical impairment so severe that it keeps her from performing any gainful activity, and the condition has lasted (or is expected to last) 12 months or longer. Age, education, and work experience, which are considered in the case of the disabled worker, are not considered. In general, you can be eligible for widows benefits only if your disability started before or within 7 years after your husband’s death. However, if you received beneits as a widow with children, you could be eligible for the new benefits if your disability started before the other payments ended, or within 7 years after they ended. Payments can start with the 7th full month of your disability. The first month for which benefits can be paid is February 1968. If you were divorced from your husband before his death after 20 or more years of marriage, but were receiving support from him at the time of his death (or he was under a court order to provide support), you may also be eligible for the newbenefits. The amount may be as low as 50 percent of the benefit the deceased worker would have received, or may be as high as 82 1/2 percent, depend SERVICE LIME and FERTILIZER SPREADING Magnesium or High Calcium.

For example, if you became disabled at age 50 and begar receiving disability benefits, you would receive 50 percent of the amount your husband would have received; if you started getting benefits at age 55 it would be 60-3/4 percent. As under the old law, the full amount of a widow's benefit --payableat62 —is 82 1/2 percent of your deceased husband’s retirement benefit. If you start receiving widow's disability benefits at an earlier age under the new law, the reduced rate will continue after age 62 as well. The change in the law is expected to make payable $60 million in the first 12 months to some 65,000 persons who have not been able to work long enough to become eligible for disability benefits on their own work records following the death of a wage earner.
