Couple Invited To Promote Ski Area Mr. and Mrs. Charles Rist, principal owners of the very successful Charnita Ski Area in nearby Pennsylvania, have been invited to consider the possibility of creating a yearround, full-facility recreational area at the Skyline Ski Area near Washington, Virginia. Skyline Ski Area has been a limited operation for several years, attempting to develop a ski facility in the so-called 'Banana Belt" of skiing, the marginal area in the middle and lower Atlantic States which must depend upon artificial snow making. Skyline, from its start, has been hampered by poor weather, inadequate capitalization, and an inability todevelopa year-round recreational area. Experience has shown that recreational areas dependent upon private financing must rely upon real estate development as well as the recreational facilities to permit healthy, continuing development. Charnita has been called a "little jewel’; of an area for second homes and retirement living. The Rists, over a period of several years, have created a recreational area embracing several thousand acres of land which include a popular ski area, a professional 18 hole golf course, a beautiful lake for fishing and boating, and many other recreational facilities. As Charnita reaches a stage of developmental maturity, the Rists are exploring the possibilities of joining forces to create a similar area at Skyline. On Friday, May 3, the Rists, in company with the present group operating Skyline Ski Area, will appear before the County Board of Supervisors to discuss the feasibility of a joint operation involving Chai*nita and Skyline. Interested county residents may well wish to attend this meeting, and express their views on the possibility of creating a major recreational and vacation home area in Rappahannock County.

In contrast to the situation in many communities across the country, in the local area a large proportion of families now own the houses in which they live. The ownership rate has been going up in recent years as a growing number of families, who have been living in rented quarters but wanted homes of their own, accumulated the wherewithal to satisfy that desire. The net result, according to the latest finding, isthatappro ximately 65.0 percent of all dwelling units in the area are now owned by their occupants. This compares with 63.4per cent in the rest of the United States and 62.8 percent in the State of Virginia. The extent of the gain that has been made in the last fe\y years may be gleaned from a look at the 1960 Census of Housing. At that time, only 63.4 percent of the dwellings were found to be owner-occupied. The new estimates are based upon the official figures, updated to reflect the changes since 1960. The extent of these changes is brought out on a national basis in studies and surveys made by the Life Insurance Institute, the National Association of Home Huilders and others. The growth of homeowner ship in the last eight years is ascribed to rising family incomes and to the fact that mortgage money has been available at favorable rates during much of that period. More recently,‘Inflation has also been a motivating factor Many people have turned to real estate as a hedge against inflation. Some have traded up, selling their former homes to buy better ones. With regard to modern household conveniences, homes in the local area appear to be well equipped, according to a Department of Commerce survey. The study was based upon the percentages of homes with food freezers, air conditioners, clothes washing machine^ television sets, telephones and automobiles. All six percentages were add ed together to arrive at an “index of home equipment." Rappahannock County is listed with an index of 289 out of a possible maximum of 600. it is a higher rating than is shown for many localities. Sandra Foster Nancy Thornhill active in the Pep Club, Glee Club, 4-H Club, and an S.C.A. representative. She participated in the Sweetheart Campaign in her junior year. Jeanne Woodard lives ini Sperryville and is the daughter of Mrs. George E. Wood- I ard. She has been a member | of the annual staff since enter-, ing the eighth grade so it is! not surprising to find her Co-| Editor this year. She has been} a member of the Pep Club, and a cheerleader for two| years. In addition to these j Flood of Marriages j For Rappahannock Rappahannock County will be! witnessing a sharp increase in its young adult population inj the next few years, with a consequent rise in the local f marriage rate and in the number of new household formations. It is not idle speculation. It Is based upon solid, statistical evidence. The latest Census Bureau figures show that approximate ly 579 young men and young! women in the local area arc now in the 20 to25agebracketj the young adult category. This is a big increase over the number that are normally in that age group. In I960, for example, there were only 312. Why the sudden increase? It harks back to the second. World War anil to the extremely high birth rates in the years just following It. The balties that were born in that period have now reached adulthood and are In the prime marrying ages I hey a re going to work, getting married and forming families of their own All of this is sweet music (Continued on Page 2) SSgt.

A BOUQUET OF AMERICAN BEAUTIES Lovely to look at ore these classics, softly shaped to flatter almost every figure. Made of rayon with the look of linen In rainbow pastels. Sizes 10-20. A very special side closing dresses up this basic skimmer. In yellow, blue or grey. ’16 This photograph is of an oil painting of Mt. Pleasant, home of Mrs. Ada Hutf in Gid Brown Hollow, near Washington, done from memory by Lt. Col. Richard A. (irant when he was overseas in 1965. Mr. Grant spent many summers during his childhood at the Hu IT home. He sent the painting to Mrs. Huff with these notes attached: A painting of my old Blue Ridge home in Rappahannock County, Vn., painted from memory, the scene depicts the house built by Ada Marshall Huff’s father and is approximately 120 years old this year. My beloved Aunt Ada is the figure climbing the gentle rise toward the meathouse, probably to cut ofT some slices of hum for the evening meal. My old hunting buddy, Uncle Henry, is watering Beauty and Old George, while Claude chops wood for the supper fire. Lily Hughes is working around the old black kettle where she’s been boiling clothes—so it must be Monday. As for the other two characters, one is myself as a child, always around good old Uncle Henry, and the other, myself as a young man, carrying water from the spring house. I understand the beautiful elm tree is no more; that Claude has finally “retired” around Philadelphia; Lily i.s still around, God Bless her. As for Uncle Henry, he departed this old world, but while here he brought only happiness to all those he came in contact with, especially me and mine. Gold Cup Races Set for Saturday The only race sanctioned by the Natonal steeplechase and Hunt Association run with no purse-the Virginia Gold Cup-will be run May 4 here at Broadview Tarm, War renton. After three Maryland races -My Lady’s Manor, Grand National, and Maryland Hunt Cup-decided to give purses under a point system, the Gold Cup became the only sanctioned race in America run strictly for sport. The Gold Cup will present a new trophy this year to replace the one retired last year by Mr. and Mrs. David Ferguson, who won it three years in a row with Leeds Don. The trophy is an antique silver guilt cup and cover made by Digby Scott and Benjamin Smith in 1796 during the reign of George III in England. The exact history of the cup cannot be traced through the years but its hallmarks indicate it was in the possession of an old titled English family for a long time. Frederick Wachmeister of Warrenton, found the cup at Colllngwood of Conduit Street while traveling in London. He brought it back to be approved by the Gold Cup Committee. Besides this new trophy, the winner of the Gold Cup this year will also receive for one year the original Virginia Gold Cup, retired by Mrs. K. E. Hitt In 1925 and later returned to the committee, which will be presented in memory of Walter Eaton, a famous Virginia polo player who died about two years ago. The winner will also receive a miniatureGold Cup chalice which he can keep forever and a lifetime membership to the Virginia Gold Cup Races. , Owners, trainers, and distinguished guests will receive the “red carpet" treatment during the weekend with the Gold Cup Committee taking over a motel for a headquarters, serving free refreshments and providing transportation wherever possible.

Each new wedlock means a new household and each new household represents thou - sands of dollars of consumer business. On the basis of surveys that have been made of the bridal market, an estimated $1,500 is spent by a couple, with parental assistance usually, in connection with their engagement and wedding. Another $3,000, on average, is spent within the first year in equipping their home. Some of it is paid for in cash and me lesi its uuu^iu on licuu. At this rate, the amount of potential spending in Rappahai* nock County from this source comes to a healthy $1,260,000, This assumes that nearly all those in the young adult age group get married during the next few years and that some 280 new households result. All segments of the local economy stand to gain from the zip in business that this new spending will produce. Marketers of furniture, rugs, dishes, draperies, blankets, clothing, electrical equipment and other household necessities will all benefit. These initial outlays will be followed by others, as family income increases, enabling the newlyweds to acquire homes of their own, buy new cars and add to their furnishings.

With the tornado season at hand, occasionally* you hear folk reminiscing about the one which struck Woodville in May of 1929, Marshall King of Alexan ria, a childhood resident o| Rappahannock, sent us these pictures of that twister showing the angry might of nature. This photo was labeled the CalHe Johnson house, Baptist Church, and the Updike house, all in varying degrees of wreckage. In the background is the Negro church which remained untouched. The path of the storm is obvious. The schoolhouse hill in Woodville where the building was located was completely destroyed. The teacher had gotten the children out of and away from the building, but one child was killed when he returned to the school to get his hat, so “they” say. At the extreme left is Jock Brown’s house, center, the Updike house and to the left, the Botts house. In the distance is the Episcopal Church. - — - r - \-\»-a i — A closer picture of the Bolts home shows the shambles of the structure and the trees. The vintage of the vehicles tells us the approximate date. Curious people from milps away came to see the ruins. Portions of the Silas Johnson home were whipped away and other parts were undisturbed.

Your Southern State* Coooerstive Agency NASA Satellite Eyes Potential Tornadoes A friendly eye high above the Equator is watching for, the violent and freakish storms that caused so much damage in 1967 and the early spring of 1968. Potential tornadoes are photographed every 15 minutes during daylight hours by a camera aboard National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Applications Technology Satellite III. Scientists will prepare movies from the photographs to see if the storms can be identified in advance by the motion of characteristic cloud patterns. Deadly Element of Doubt Weathermen still cannot predict exactly when or where a deadly cone of wind will burst from the clouds and scythe across the countryside, the National Geographic Society says. In 1967, 906 tornadoes raked the United States, killing 116 and causing millions of dollars in damage. But the chance that a specific location will be struck by a tornado in any one year is quite small. For example, the probability of a twister striking a community even in areas prone to the storms is about once in 250 years. There have been disastrous exceptions. Oklahoma City has weathered 26 tornadoes since 1892. Baldwyn, Mississippi, was surprised twice within 25 minutes in March, 1942. Twisters hit Codell, Kansas on May 20 in 1916, 1917, and 1918. Tornadoes may occur in any month, but they strike most frequently in April, May, and June. Certain conditions appear indispensable: moist, warm air at low levels and cool, dry air at higher levels; a southerly wind at the surface and a strong overriding wind from a different direction Suddenly, from the midst of a thundercloud, a dark funnel lashes out with a twisting elephant’s trunk of whirling air that speeds across the ground, sucking up almost anything in its path. The average tornado meanders only about four miles, but spreads incredible destruction in its wake. Uproots Trees, Expodes Houses Winds estimated at more than 300 miles an hour roar around a core of low air pres sure, turning splinters into deadly missiles, uprooting trees, and hurling people and animals hundreds of yards. A Minnesota twister tossed an 83-ton railroad car and its 117 passengers 80 feet through the air and left them in a ditch. Solid buildings, unable to cope with the sudden drop in pressure, may literally explode as the storm passes over over them. Allen D.

"Many," says Mr. Pearson ruefully, “remember the cyclone in ‘The Wizard of Oz' with Dorothy and her little dog whirling upward, along with chickens, homes, and neighbors.

Phone 087-2401 Get Calves Ready For Fall Market Now All beef cattle producers should be looking ahead and getting calves ready for the fall sales and markets. Before calves are turned out on pasture for the summer, all steer calves should be castrated. This job should be checked carefully to see It has been done properly. Stags and bull calves sell for a discount In the fall and are not looked on with favor by buyers willing to pay top prices. Horned type calves should be dehorned by some method. There is a good method tc suit every person. You car first use a paste dehorner soon after the calf is born and this suits probably more people than any other method. Later on, the horns can be cut out by one of two methods. First, with a dehorning tube which takes the horn button out when it is quite small. Secondly, one can use the Barns dehorner from two months to four months of agfe for the calf. Some producers use electric dehorners when the horn button is quite small. Also "It’s a good idea to identify each calf." “This can be done by placing an ear tag in his ear at birth and also having some means of identifying his mother. This is important because it is a good way to tell what each cow in the herd is doing. In fact. herd records are impossible without Identification. As summer passes, watch pastures to see there is plenty of grass for the calves. Unless there is a drought to curtail grazing, creep feeding will normally not pay the good manager. As selling time approaches, vaccinate your calves for blackleg, malignant edema and shipping fever. FARM MACHINERY AUCTION FRIDAY, MAY 3rd . 10:00 A. M.

Mrs. Paul Summers and nurseryman G. Elbert Foster work among the rows of evergreens at the newly established nursery at The Shade, owned by Mrs. Summers. The beautiful old house with its boxwoods and other plantings and the blooming dogwood make a charming setting. At right, Mrs. Summers watches as Mr. Foster takes up a spreading yew. New Businesses Blend In County Setting Love of the land and a need for an interesting, absorbing hobby have led to the establishment of three compatible businesses in Rappahannock County, all blending into the general agricultural pattern of the area. Three nurseries, each specializing in a different horticultural aspect, have emerged, each under the deft supervision of a woman. Circumstances of the women were much the same. All were widowed, though one.„,has re- ; married, and all had land to^j accommodate a business of ithis nature. At The Shade near Washington, Mrs. Paul Summers has (started a nursery specializing in trees and evergreens. Mrs. Francis Leonard produces Mrs. Francis Leonard inspects the rows of Azaleas in her nursery at Lullwater Farm, Amissville. The hardy field-grown stock was obtained from Pennsylvania. Mrs. Leonard specializes in flowering shrubs at the nursery w;hich she started as a hobby and is developing into a growing business. The plants and surrounding grounds at the nursery are picturesque with the plush green velvet of the lawns as the background. flowering shrubs at her Lullwater Farm near Amissville. Both are open this spring for the first time though preparation has been in evidence for some time. Mrs. William R. Williamson, who launched a: flower plant and herb business a few years ago, continues at a rapid pace at Oak Forest near Woodville. Mrs. Summers took to the hills, so to speak, when she and the late Mr. Wire purchased The Shade many years ago. When you hear her speak of it you know she loves every inch of the rolling acres of the farm with its herd of Angus roaming the hillsides. However, she felt an urge for a closer personal contact with the land, and the nursery provided the answer. Her prime quality stock came from Pennsylvania and at present including white pine, fir, spruce, dogwood, yew and ilex. Each is nurtured with tender loving care by Mrs. Summers who says she has never worked so hard in her life nor rested so well either. Mrs. Leonard declares she didn’t know a zinnia from a thistle a few years ago. It is obvious after a short corF versation with her that she is now well versed in the ways of azaleas and rhododendrons ^Vhfch wave a colorful greet-, dbg from neat rows In the Lullwater Nursery. Her healthy field grown stock was secured from Pennyslvania and North Carolina and also includes varieties of Holly and other flowering shrubs. Mrs. Leonard’s nursery started purely as a hobby after the death of her husband and has become an engaging business. She will attend the MidAtlantic Rhododendron Society meeting in Waynesboro, Pa. the 17th and 18th of this month. In addition to its monetary and therapeutic benefits, Mrs. Leonard says it is extremely Iii The Service Marine Reserve Second Lieu tenant John E. Decher III, son of Mr. and Mrs. John K.

One wonders with amazement how Mrs. Williamson musters the energy to match her enthusiasm. This small sized, jet propelled human dynamo streaks around Oak Forest Gardens as she plants and transplants her flowers and herbs. To her every plant is special with a personality of its own and each person who visits the gardens, whether to buy or browse, it just as special to her. Another agricultural busi ness recently established in the county is the Christmas tree farm of Capt. William Keim between Amissville and Viewtown where he harvested his first crop this past yule holiday. A fire this spring destroyed some of the trees and he has just planted 5,000 more. Oak Forest, the home of Mrs. I William R. Williamson, will be the scene of her annual flower mart Friday and Saturday. Mrs. Williamson specializes in flower plants and herbs in addition to herb jellies and vinegars. She spends every waking moment in planting, watering, weeding and so has had her telephone installed in the garden under the urn-, brella with a chair convenient.

Bay, the proceeds of which are to be used by the Old Dominion Eye Bank and Research, Inc. in its work of providing human eye tissue for sight-restoring corneal transplantation and research into the causes of blindness. The initial contribution to the fund, a check for $5000 representing contributions from Mu Bay’s fellow employees and nis employer, a Cleveland cos metics firm, was presented by Mrs. Bay to Jack L. Middleton of The Plains, Va., Chair man of the Board of Directors of the Old Dominion Eye Bank.
