— ..... COSTLY SIGN MAINTENANCE RESULTS FROM VANDALISM: Frank L. Isbell, Richmond district traffic engineer for the Department of Highways, takes a look at some of the vandalized signs removed from the State highway system. More than $340,000 is spent each year on sign maintenance due to vandalism such as bullet holes, damage resulting from the throwing of beverage cans and bottles and the placing of campaign stickers on the front of signs. Vandalism To Highway Signs Cost State Over $340,000 Last Year Vandalism to highway signs in Virginia cost more than $340,000 last year, according co a new State-wide survey by the Department of Highways. This figure was about onehalf of the total cost for all sign maintenance. In conducting the survey, the Department asked each of the State’s eight highway construction district offices to list their expendituresfor fiscal 1966-67 with regard to signs repaired or replaced due to vandalism. A blast from a shotgun or a bullet hole from another type gun, a splash of paint, a J?everage can or bottle are the Usual methods of destroying or defacing a sign. Sometimes the signs are stolen. Major deterioration of some ’ signs,0perhaps not deliberate, occurs when campaign or advertisement stickers are placed on the front of the sign. Mter several days, these are very difficult to remove and damage the reflective ma-, terial applied to make the signs visible after dark. The State-wide survey show ed that $170,188 was spent on secondary road sign maintenance because of vandalism, $161,347 on the primary system and $8,650 on the interstate system. In Rappahannock County, which is a part of Culpeper District, a total of $2,974 was needed to repair damages to signs. Of this $2,787 was for primary roads and $187 on the secondary system. Interstate sign maintenance igures reflect relatively lit:le vandalism cost, partly because there are fewer miles — 625 miles of the planned 1,060-mile system are .now open to traffic. Many of the signs do show evidence of vandalism, but only a few have reached the point that they had to be replaced. The 13-county Culpeper district reported that of the $89,414 spent on maintenance of primary road signs during ast year, $71,532 was attributable to vandalism. And 567,713 of the $84,655 spent on secondary road signs was also due to this type of destruction. Despite the fewer miles, the Culpeper district still used $4, 389 of the$21,949 spent on interstate signs because of vandalism. While Culpeper appeared to be the area hardest hit by sign vandalism, the seven other highway districts also had their maintenance budgets taxed by more than token costs. Bristol district reported costs of $15,147 for primary roads, $16,057 for secondary roads and $555 for interstate roads; Salem $13,214 for primary, $24,441 for secondary and $2,305 for interstate; Lynchburg $7,000 for primary and $13,000 for secondary (the district has no interstate roads). Also: Richmond $14,047 for primary, $27,646 for secondary and $279 interstate; Suffolk $10,700 primary, $10,670 secondary and no cost to interstate; Fredericksburg $23,452 primary, $5,377 secondary and $937 interstate; Staunton $5,355 primary, $5,310 secondary and $185 inter state. A recent tour on interstate, primary and secondary roads in parts of Central and Western Virginia provided visual evidence of sign vandalism.

A gift plant requires these four conditions - full sun, cool temperatures, keep it out of drafts and keep the soil moist, but not soggy. You will not get the longest life possible from your plant unless it is put in a room or porch at night with a temperature between 50-60 degrees. Blooms and Flowers will last much longer with a lower temperature. If you plan to flower these plants a second year, do not expect the same quality bloom as the greenhouse-grown plant because it was grown under ideal conditions which cannot be duplicated in the home.

Freeman today expressed “deep concern” over Increased movement by large, diversified non-farm corpora tlon Into agriculture and ordered USDA to step up its economic studies of the subject. “Earlier USDA special studies of vertical integration in he broiler industry have shown some of the extent of movement by non-farm interests intoagriculture. Continuing studies by the Economic Research Service of the dynamics of farm size show the dimensions of this problem,” the Secretary said. "We also know that off-farm corporations have been acquiring large tracts of cropland in the Midwest and else**" 1 fYK PHR in a BODY-SHIRT A /i rip-roaring Western look that migrates North, East or South with no problem, Easy shirt styling with top stitching detail, shiriy buttons and a color matched print ascot .or the sophisticated tou' i.

However, we do not now have the precise infromatlon needed to determine the extent of large-scale corporate activity In farming. This Is the reason for the special ERS study on corporate farming," he said. Expressing his “deep concern” over Increasing movement by non-farm corporations Into the agricultural field, the Secretary said such large, diversified corporations could afford to take heavy losses in their farm operations, writing them off In other business activities. “In periods of overproduction," the Secretary said, “financial reserves built upfrom non-farm activities could allow such corporations to farm on very narrow profit margins or at a loss, posing a serious and perhaps fatal threat tc family operated farms. “Obviously this is detrimental to farmers,” he continued. “It Is also not in the public interest, in my opinion. If a few large firms can gain control of the Nation’s food production, operating their own supply-management programs, they could conceivably dictate food prices." Mr. Freeman stressed that the Department does not oppose incorporation of farms per se. On the contrary, incorporation has definite advantages for some family farms, particularly in reduc ing liabilities and in the trans fer of the farm from father to son. The Department has provided information to farmers on incorporation of their family operations for many years. Some recent findings on corporate agriculture that will be probed more deeply in the new study are these, the Secretary indicated: * “Internal Revenue Service data show that the number of farm corporations increases from 6,600 in 1953 to 17,500 in 1964. Their agricultural business receipts rose from $1.6 billion to $4.3 billion over the same period. “But these figures apply only to corporations that report agriculture as their ‘principal' activity. They don’t include large, diversified corporations such as those now reported to be moving heavily into farming. We want to learn more about the composition of nnpra Hnn c * * “1965 IRS figures show that 321 Individuals withannual incomes over $500,000 had farm operations. Some 8 out of 10 of these individuals claimed losses from farming. "We know that some corporations and others enter farming primarily for tax purposes. Income can be put into building repairs, machinery, or livestock; losses can be credited against off-farm income. Later these losses may be recovered as capital gains, taxable at a much lower rate than income. We also wish to delve into this," he said. “In short, we need many facts and figures we do not now have to assess developing trends and their long-range implications to farmers and to the Nation.* NO BRUSH BURNING Before 4&0 P.M.

Highway Signs— (Continued from Page 1) Few signs in those areas did not show some evidence of vandalism, although none had reached the point of replacement since the Department’s annual spring cleanup several weeks ago when most signs were repaired or replaced. It is significant to note that $12,203 of the $17,432 spent on secondary road sign maintenance in Chesterfield County alone was the result of vandalism. Frank Isbell, Richmond district traffic engineer, notes bullet holes and holes resulting from beverage cans and bot ties are predominant in rural areas, while paint is most often the weapon used in urban areas. Isbell also said that “570?“ signs or other markers which contain the letter "O* appear to tempt the target shooters, while the bright red, yellow or green reflectorized signs are targets for throwers of cans and bottles. He pointed out that many vandalized signs are replaced without the cost being considered a maintenance expenditure because of various reasons, such as changing a ^Graduating with extra credits... these extra-special watches from Bulova! ■ANKER "00"— 17 Jawals.
