In Rappahannock The average Rappahannock County resident has become more dependent upon the automobile in his daily life than ever before, according to a new survey. It shows that a relatively small percentage of local families are now without cars. Many families, on the other hand, have more than one. The net result is that car i registrations are higher in the local area. The rise is attributed to the income gains of the last few years, which have brought bigger and better cars within reach of more people. The figures on car distributions show an average of 170 cars for every 100 families in Rappahannock County as of the first of this year, which is more than was reported for many sections of the country. The data is contained in tht current consumer markets study released by the Standard Rate and Data Service. It covers every county in the United States. An increase -4n the auto population has a direct impact on the economy as a whole, it is shown. More money is spent in the purchase and maintenance of the additional cars, more people are needed to serve them and more roads and parking areas are needed to contain them. The amount of business done by Rappahannock County service stations alone in the past year, for 1 gas, oil, accessories and repairs, came to $298,000 as compared with the 1963 total of $179,000, according to the report. A number of factors are listed by the automobile industry to account for the increased number of cars. One is the nation’s economic strength, which has produced higher incomes and ; better living standards. Another is the expanding networks of roads, which have Ijmade suburban living more I feasible. Also cited is the car hungry teen-agers, who have f made the second car a necessity ’ in many families. In Rappahannock County, the effect has been to raise car registrations from the 1.660 reported five years ago to the "2,080 listed now. It was equivalent to a net increase of 25.4 percent, after allowing for those that were discarded. In the rest of the United States, the gain in the period was only 23.6 percent and, in the State of Virginia, 25.0 percent. 4-H Leader Training Meeting Tonight The second in a series of 4-11 leader training meetings will be held llnirsday. July 25, (tonight) at 8:00 p m. at the Amissville I Fireball This session sponsored by the Cooperative Extension Service will be on “Meeting the [Basic Needs of Boys and Girls", and will include characteristics of various age groups, basic needs of lull youth and program planning [to meet I hose needs Anyone interested in helping with the Amissville Community Club is invited to attend this session.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Ya. Telephone: WASHINGTON 675-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the P. O. at Washington, Va. Subscription Rate (in advance): $2.50 per year in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.00 elsewhere. Letter To Editor The Editor, Rappahannock News Washington, Va. Dear Madam: In a recent article on hunting in the “Rappahannock News” there was a statement - not particularly relevant to the rest of the article - regarding the proposed gun control legislation which echoed the official line of special interests: law-abiding citizens would find it impossible to buy guns and ammunition, conservation programs would be curtailed, and criminals would have no trouble at all securing weapons. You might be interested in the following excerpt from an editorial in the “Washington Post”: “A system of compulsory' Federal registration of all firearms would mean, as Attorney General Clark told a Senate Judiciary 1 Subcommittee not long ago, that “authorities in every part of the country would be able to trace the ownership of a registered gun ] in a matter of seconds.” Thus, it would serve as an effective means of tracing criminals who used guns for the commission of their crimes. Moreover, no one could legally purchase ammunition for a gun that was not registered. This would interfere very seriously with the use of guns for criminal purposes. But it would not interfere in any way with the use of guns for hunting or target shooting by responsible, law-abiding citizens who registered them in the same simple, straightforward way they register their automobiles or their dogs.” Sincerely yours, Bernard Thomas Sperryville, Va. 22740 Reunion of Jenkins Descendants August 4th TTie Annua) Reunion of the! descendants of the late Alfredj Jenkins and Katherene Gearing Jenkins of Rappahannock County! will be held August 4, 1968 at!

It should be applied only to plants you want to kill using low pressure (30-40 pounds per square inch) equipment that will apply a wet spray ( no mist) when there is no. or very little, breeze. It is safe to use in apple orchards. Always use a low volatile form. Butal esters are more tricky — avoid using this form. Some plants and trees are more susceptible to the effects of 2.4-D than others. Never use this chemical near tomatoes or grapes. Also, use with caution near oaks, locusts and dogwood. Some dogwoods have been known to be killed by 2,4-D, also wisteria. Based upon my experience, I feel this more the result of 2,4-D being in careless hands.

Young Thieves NEW YORK—Sixty three per cent of the persons arrested for automobile thefts during 1966 were under the age of 18. at' cording to the Insurance In formation Institute. More than 557,000 motor vehicles; were stolen in the United States in 1966. 1 Fieldcrest Duracale Sheets King Size in Flat and Fitted —- also — Queen Size in Flat and Fitted Queen Size Bedspreads Jamestown Pattern in white By Morgan Jones Efficient Use of Resources by Farms Blacksburg -- Prosperous farmers are finding they must place increased emphasis on efficient use of all available resources such as labor, land, machinery and available operating capital if their operation is to remain profitable. To maintain efficiency it is many times necessary to switch to different crops or farm enterprises, said Easley S. Smith, associate professor of agricultural engineering at Virginia Tech. Other methods of maintaining or increasing efficiency include changing field layouts, changes in production practices, eliminating or combining several operations and addition of new or larger machinery. U. S. Department of Agriculture figures show that from 1950 to 1964, farm output per man-hour increased about 2.3 times. In the same period new tractors increased from about 28 to 60 horsepower. “With the present use of more and larger machines and more costly labor, farm operators must continually question each operation to see what can be done to make it more efficient,” Smith said. A recent study in Alabama has shown parallel terraces increased row crop machinery efficiency 16 per cent when compared to conventional terraces. Parallel terraces eliminated many of the short rows, thus reducing the turning time required. Smooth, wide, grass-covered turning areas can also save considerable turning time as compared to small, rough turning areas, Smith added. Whenever possible, small irregularly-shaped fields should be combined into larger areas with longer rows. Turning areas at the ends of rows should be wide enough to permit the operator to complete the tum without backing. Backing a tractor to complete a tum, Smith said, may require up to five times as much time as to make a semi-circle turn. Ditches and other obstructions should be eliminated wherever possible. Increased field efficiency obtained by reducing lost time through good field layout may make it possible to farm more acres with a given size machine or amount of available labor. It may also permit the use of smaller and less expensive equipment for a given acreage.

Often, Smith said, machine and labor efficiency can be improved by planning ahead. Many repairs and adjustments of machines can be made during slack seasons to prevent some of the inoperative time. Larger fertilizer, seed and chemical hoppers and better means of bulk handling can also reduce the down time and help improve efficiency.

Old Oak Replaced at New Mkt. Battlefield A huge white oak, last survivor of the Battle of New Market which fell last February 4, will be replaced with a young oak by the Pi Kappa Alpha national fraternity, the New Market Battlefield Park announced today. The gift to the park will honor a founder of Pi Kappa Alpha, Julian Edward Wood, one of 250 Virginia Military Institute cadets in the May 15, 1864 battle. It will also mark the centennial anniversary of the fraternity’s founding at the University of Virginia. Ranking officers of the fraternity will attend dedication ceremonies at the park August 24 as part of their national centennial convention ir Richmond. James J. Geary, park director, said the tree will be in place by then. Wood transferred to the University of Virginia to study medicine and in 1868 was one of several students who founded the fraternity there. At the Battle of New Market he was second cadet corporal in Company C of VMI add was a member of the color guard. Later he practiced medicine in Princess Anne County, Virginia The aged oak, which was approximately 160 years old, had been dead for some time when it fell over but its great skeleton had been a sentinel dominating the entire battlefield. It stood where Union lines were formed at the time of the final victorious Confederate charge in which VMI cadets took part. Fifty-seven cadets were wounded, ten fatally, in this their first battle experience. The 160-acre New Market Battlefield Park was opened July 1, 1967, to honor the VMI cadets. It features a 12-minute motion picture about them which has won tw ^^international awards. TTie park is administered by VMI with funds from a private bequest.

Well, not wishing to ‘skin my ignorance’ I took him to the place he indicated. I couldn’t tell that I had been over any GAP and the word kept haunting me till 1 looked it up in my dictionary. Here are the definitions I found: an opening, interval, breach, pass in a mountain. I accepted the latter as apropos. We know what an opening is, an interval is a distance between points in space or time. We hear so much about the Credibility Gap, the Generation Gap. Is there a Growing Gap between man and God? Let’s add a few more ????. Oh yes, the word ‘breach’. It means a rupture of friendly relations, of trust. As I go to church on Sundays and see so many empty pews, I wonder at the loss of our friendly relations with- God, our trust in Him. It may be that if we do not return unto Him, we may one day like the exiles in the 137th Psalm, “sit down and weep” ovei1 our lost heritage. Social News in Flint Hill Area Mrs. Ruth J.

HIGHWAY 522 FLINT HILL, VA. PHONE 675-3646 Thunderstorm Power Greater than A-Bomb It often rains “upside down” in the sudden fury of a summer thunderstorm. Strong updrafts may roar up at 60 miles an hour and carry raindrops high into the air before the water droplets grow heavy and plummet to earth. ! So violent are the updrafts and downdrafts within the storm (system that they can toss an airplane hundreds of feet in seconds, flip it over, or even rip off its wings. An average summer storm produces 50 times the energy of the first atomic bomb, the National Geographic Society says. Triggers Hailstones The storm may release a hundred thousand tons of rain and hailstones as big as grapefruit. The pelting hail flattens crops, splinters buildings, smashes glass, and kills animals, birds, livestock, and sometimes men. A hailstorm that stuck Whichita, Kansas, in 1951 caused property damage in excess of $14 million. Paradoxically, violent storms [also produce valuable fertilizer. Lightning frees nitrogen from the iair, and rain washes it into the Isoil at the rate of a hundred million tons a year. About 1,800 thunderstorms rage around the world at any given moment. The west coast has the fewest thunderstorms of any area in the United States--an average of less than five a year. The greatest number-some 90-strike a strip in Florida extending northeastward from Tampa Bay to Daytona Beach. For all its power, a thunderstorm begins as a column of gently rising air-warm, moist, and walled by a chimney of cooler air. It is topped by a cottony cumulus cloud. Such a thunderstorm “cell” of rising warmth, if conditions are just right, gains power as it lifts. Air expands and cools; it begins wringing out its load of water vapor.

Architects for the various projects are preparing specifications; bids will be asked later. TTie projects involve a total cost estimated at $5,233,293. Included in these projects are two county health departments, two facilities for the mentally retarded and two mental health centers. Both new buildings and expansions are involved. The State Health Department’s Bureau of Medical and Nursing Facilities Services reported that the following projects have been approved (project, estimated total cost, federal share, description): Isle of Wight County Health Department, $224,936, federal $120,910, new building. Alleghany-Covington Health Department, $95,000, federal $46,750, second floor addition.

The cloud boils higher and darker. The cumulus becomes a thunderhead. Ice crystals cap the cloud, butj in its middle water drops grow' heavy enough to overcome the updraft and fall. They drag cool air with them, the cold gust that blows out from the skirts of the storm. Laced with Lightning Massive charges of electricity form inside the thundercloud. Negatively and positively charged centers polarize within a thunderhead. Eventually, an electrical discharge flashes from one center to another or between one and the ground. This is lightining. The shock wave, as the lightning bolt expands along its length, is thunder. Because sound | travels at about a thousand feet a second, the number of seconds between the flash and the thunder, multiplied by one thousand, tells roughly the distance between an observer and the storm. A single flash of lightning seldom drains a storm cloud of its electrical energy. Repeated strokes down the same channel are common, and dozens of bolts can occur in one second. The old saying that lightning never strikes twice in the same place is false. One belief that is true goes: “If you heard the thunder, the lightning did not strike you. If you saw the lightning, it missed you; if it did strike you, you would not have known It.” CaD Us For Shengas Carp. Phone ME-5-3666 Front Royal, Fc of a brother-in-law.

SS Act Violations Will Be Prosecuted “Violations of the Social Security Act will be vigorously prosecuted,” Hazel F. Daly District Manager warned today Mrs. Daly said she had just learned that Ben Webb ol Pikeville, Kentucky and his wife Mandy were convicted ir Pikeville, Kentucky on June 11 for furnishing false informatior to the Social Securitj Administration and converting another person’s benefit to theii own use. Mr. and Mrs. Webb each received a one year suspended sentence and were placed on five years’ probation. The Webbs listed a grandchild as their natural legitimate child for social security purposes and received erroneous payments. The payments made in error were then converted to theii own personal use. “The conviction of Ben and Mandy Webb for violations involving false information and converting another person’s benefits to their own use should serve as a warning to all persons,’ Mrs. Daly pointed out. When itending to cause social security payments to be made where nont are authorized, a conviction ol each violation can mean as much as a $1,000 fine or imprisonment of one year, or both. Too, full restitution of the payments may be required. Any suspected irregularities ol this manner are quickly and fully investigated by the Socia Security Administration.

Fanners are often likewise guilty of carelessness when spray equipment is taken to the stream bank for filling or rinsing and toxic materials are allowed to drain into the stream. Drainage from agricultural feed lots was leading killer, and natural runoff from fields treated heavily with pesticides was frequently mentioned. Fishermen using the waters and game wardens patrolling were usually the first to report the dying fish, their promptness, in many cases, allowing investigators to accurately pinpoint the cause. Conservation Camp— | (Continued from Page 1) beach and dinner. Friday’s nature class was the most interesting, I thought. On the hike, we saw part of the Dismal Swamp, many different kinds of birds, snake and lizard tracks on the sand dunes, and a great variety of trees. After the two classes, we had the Olympic Games. The whole camp was divided into five tribes: each tribe would compete against another in athletics. The tribe that I was in, “The Game Protectors” was the champion in Volley Ball until we played the sand fiddlers (all the leaders). When the Olympics were over, we had vespers. The last one was very inspirational because we assembled on the beach. Rev. Joe Stanley talked to us about the treasures that we had right there. The talk and the setting were very effective. After Vespers came the r Campfire. All the campfire meetings were really wild. Each tribe had to have a cheer and a song. If a tribe had a challenge they would present it and see if anyone could do the same. Thursday night each tribe had to have a skit. Our skit was called “West Sand Story”. I was one of the dancers. Friday night we had a talent show. Spending a week at 4-H Conservation Camp made me realize the importance of appreciating and understanding our natural resources. This camp is the best camp I have ever been to and, if possible, I would like to go back next year. An experience like this really encourages a 4-H member to try “To Make The Best Better”. 4-H Camp(Continued from Page 1) featured the Honor “H” ceremony. At this time five junior campers and 5 leaders were chosen as one of the outstanding ten is indeed an Honor. Because of her cooperation and contribution to the camp’s programs, Brenda Printz was chosen to represent the Heart “H”. Those Club members attending camp were: Douglas Ricketts, Dorothy Walters, Diane Williams, Susan Latham, Samuel Wigington, Susan Baldwin, Charla Ann Sisk David Thornhill, Mary N. Butler, Carol Jackson, Shelia Fritts, Deloris Gibbs, Vanda Hope McDonald, Larry Smoot, Lewis Atkins, Mike North and Hilda Walters.
