Burning Law Will Be Effective Mar. 1 Raymond Johnson, Chief Forest Warden for Rappahannock County announces that the 4 o’clock burning law becomes effective Saturday, March 1, and I is in effect until May 15. This law states that open air fires are unlawful within 300 feet of the woods, or inflammable material leading to woodland, except between the hours of 4 p.m. in the afternoon and 12 midnight. This law is a good forest fire prevention measure because it prohibits burning in dangerous areas during the time of day when a fire bums most rapidly because of higher temperatures, lower humidity, and increasing winds. Since the spring months are generally hazardous, the law is seasonal, applying only during the months forest fire danger is most critical. forestry personnel asK tne cooperation of the public when burning anything outside the home. By burning during the legal hours, the danger of a fire escaping is not as great as earlier in the day. Even when burning after 4 o’clock the fire should be attended and completely extinguished before leaving. Burn on an afternoon when the wind is calm and the air is moist. This reduces the chance of blowing embers starting a fire in nearby grass or woodland. The law will be enforced through the aid of forest fire lookout towers, airplane patrol, and all personnel of the Virginia Division of Forestry. Washington Auxiliary The Washington Ladies Auxiliary will have its regular meeting on Monday night, March i 3 beginning at 7 p.m. It will take : place in the fire house.

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 Mrs. Sarah Latham, Editor RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Box 38 Washington, Virginia 22747 Dear Mrs. Latham: Replying to your letter, calling our attention to apparent discrepancy in one of the items in a recent release of our “LOOK AND LEARN” column. We regret that we must confess to an error — of omission. The question to which you refer should have read, “What is the largest LAND mammal in the world?” And the answer to this, of course, is the African elephant, the average adult bull of which stands 10 feet 6 inches at the shoulder and weighs as much as 6' 2 tons. The largest mammal now living (and possibly the largest that has ever inhabited the earth) is the blue or sulphur bottom whale, with record specimens as long as 107 feet and up to 195 tons in weight reported. We are sorry about the omission of the word “land” in our question, and assure you we shall exercise even greater care than heretofore for complete accuracy. We must say that throughout the years we have been publishing this feature errors have been very few and far between. One compensating thing about any seeming discrepancy — readers are always quick to write in about it, which is good testimonial of reader-interest in the newspaper and in the feature. Thank you, Mrs. Latham, for calling this to our attention, and best wishes to you, Sincerely yours, W. L. GORDON FEATURES A. C. Gordoh, Manager Letter To Editor Editor of Rappahannock News Washington,' Virginia Enclosed is my check for another year’s subscription to The Rappahannock News. 1 enjoy the paper very much even though I have been away from my home county for a good many years and really know very few of the names which appear in the news. I am very grateful to my good friends Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Cook who sent me the paper for the past several years. Your photography is the best that I have ever seerf in any paper and I do recognize many of the lovely spots that grace your paper. One of which was a section of my parents farm. I don’t know who owns it now but I hope they enjoy it as much as we did. Sincerely yours, Mrs. Arbelia M. Arnold Anderson, South Carolina Panther Tales By Sip VP G.) IP Congratulations to the Panthers on their fine effort against Broadway in the District 10 Tournament. Although they lost 72 to 58 to a larger team with more height, the Panthers refused to give up. Last Saturday, teachers from the Warren and Rappahannock County school attended a divisional meeting at the Rappahannock County Elementary School. Officers of the clubs and organizations are making plans for new times for their meetings. A different schedule other than lunch time will be set up. Everyone here is hoping Mrs. Burford will recover soon. We would like to welcome Mr. Dement who is here in her place. This week I interviewed Charles Jackson. His favorite song is “Can’t I Change My Mind”. His favorite singer is Marvin Gaye. His favorite expression is the “Boy”. “What do adults misunderstand about teenagers the most,” Charles says, ’’that they don’t understand our music and dances.” Charles plans to join the labor force when he graduates. 4-H Meeting The 4-H meeting in Mr. Wayland’s seventh grade room was called to order on January 17 by president Floyd Alther. Then the pledge of allegiance and 1-H pledge was repeated. The group was led in singing by song leader Carolyn Glascock. The devotions leader read a Psalm from the Bible. The secretary' read the minutes of the last meeting and old or new business was called for. Mr. Lyne showed the group how to take a dog’s pulse and temperature. After a period of questions by Miss Burtner the meeting was adjourned. Donna Kay Woodward Reporter RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY, VA.

ROBERT L. BROWN, Treasurer of Rappahannock County Extra — Extra-by Ed Frustration Proud grandfather Ed Sims who was visiting with the Perkins family in Sperryville recently took an ice chest full of Rappahannock snow to his grandson Jerry Braddock in South Carolina, for Jerry had never seen this natural phenomenon. Upon arriving in S.C., Grandpa Finds three inches of the white stuff blanketing the terrain. Now Jerry has really seen snow. Poor Grandpa. Who’s Joking? At the recent dinner held to honor firemen in various areas of the county, the jokes flow freely, some prepared and some just happen. Following a tremendous dinner prepared and served by the women of Chester Gap, Trooper W. A. Buntin suggested that the ladies deserved a big hand. Before the applause could begin, one of the ladies from that area told him to follow her and she would show him where the dishpan was. Traffic Facts Did you know that in 1906 you could buy a Cadillac for $950? A Ford cost $2500 the same year. Leather tires were manufactured Rapp-Chats By W. H. Lync Extension Agent, Agriculture If you’re not proud, you should be! Of all the bulls on Record of Performance feed test at Culpeper and at Dublin, there is no consignment any better, and few as good, than any one of those from Rappahannock. For a bull to weigh 1000 lbs. or more at 365 days of age is much like a man running a mile in less than 4 minutes. If you read the sports pages, listen to the news on your radio or TV, you have an idea of how many men have made such a record! Yet every bull Ray Cannon put on test out of his herd sire, “Kingdom Elevate 223”, did better than a thousand pounds at 365 days!! In eleven years of B.C.I.A. performance testing in Virginia, this is the first time all the get on test of any one sire has made such a record. Two of these bulls are at Culpeper and will sell March 14th. Don’t forget Angus sell first this year. They will start selling promptly at 10 a.m. Ned Johnson has a son of UTBE Eileenmere 534 that weighed 1068 lbs. at 365 days of age. H. L. Manwaring’s Charolais did 1055 lbs. at a year of age. Now what about the other Rappahannock bulls? Well, it hasn’t been but just a few years ago that any brute having a 2 pound daily growth rate was considered superior. Now the Rappahannock bulls, (Alphaeus Cannon is the other consignor not mentioned so far), all have better than a 2.0 lbs weight per day of age. In fact, they range from 2.37 lbs. up to 2.92 lbs. and average 2.66 lbs. Tile average of all of the 110 bulls on test is 2.51 lbs. per day of age. Growth rate is highly heritable. If you’re going to slay in the beef business, you’ve gotta breed this trait into your herd. But many will say, "1 can’t afford to pay for such a bull”. as late as 1906 and in 1899, the War Department purchased three automobiles equipped with attachment points to which mules could be hitched when the car wouldn’t run. In one English city, an officer arresting a female for a traffic violation cannot ask her age. He must estimate it. (I don’t know, but perhaps some of us might fare better if we’d just go on and tell). A marine in Vietnam received a notice from San Diego authorities to the effect that he owed a $30 traffic fine. The marine requested that extradition procedures be started at once. Quotes and Signs "What America needs is more young people who will carry to their jobs the same enthusiasm that they display in traffic.” Quoted by the Ontario Safety League. Sign on a pest control truck read, “Drive carefully and leave the exterminating to us.” Maybe so, maybe not. Could be you’re fooling yourself in entertaining such a thought. I suspect quite a few of these bulls that will sell at Culpeper will go for less than $800. A couple years ago Ray Cannon paid twice this for Kingdom Elevate 223, which he selected on looks and performance record as well as performance of his dam. Because of what this bull has done for Ray’s herd, he sold half interest in the bull this week for more than twice what he paid and will still retail the bull for his own use! Guess he made a pK>fitable investment. Right? UTBE Eleenmere is a cripple and ten years ago would have gone for hamburger. Not so today. And I’ll wager he’s added many handsome dollars to Ned Johnson’s beef income. All bulls with good rate of gain records, pass this trait on to their sons and daughters. Bulls with built-in ability make profits in the beef business. Silent Day Observed “Silent Day” was observed Tuesday, February 25 at Rappahannock County Elementary School. Pupils in grades 4 through 7 were to remain quiet all day, eliminating all unnecessary talking or noise. Whenever noise occurred, out of order, the student was fined a penny.

L. Manwaring’s South Red Oak Ranch last Saturday afternoon were: Mrs. Lois D. Snead and Lib of Washington Col. N. J. Wilbur and son of Slate Mills Mr. Plantt of Madison Mr. Lee Payne and son, Kenneth , of W'oodville Mr. Ray T. Cannon of Castleton, who demonstrated breeze branding. In fact, most all present got a try at this method. (Contrary to the law of the range, Mr. Manwaring stated no one could claim the cow just because he put the brand on but may do so upon payment of a purchase fee). Photo shows Mr. Cannon’s cows he freeze branded sometime ago. About 90 days after freeze branding has been done numbers are supposed to show as white hair replaces that of colored: cattle (black and red). H. L. Manwaring and son Larry demonstrated dew-lap tagging which also impressed those attending as a way of identifying well worth watching. The Manwarings like it, have had no infection to set in to date and say the numbers are much easier to read than those on neck chains. W. H. Lyne Ext.

Today’s Woman Judy Burtner Extension Agent, Home Economics WISE STORING OF FOOD PREVENTS WASTE Meat, Poultry and Fish All Meat should be promptly refrigerated. The transparent wrap on prepackaged meat, poultry, or fish is designed for refrigerator storage at home for 1 or 2 days. Meat or poultry wrapped in meat paper when brought from the store - or pre-packaged roasts and steaks that may be stored in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days - should be unwrapped, placed on a platter or tray, and loosely covered before refrigerating. Wrap and store fish separately from other foods. Poultry giblets should also be wrapped and stored separately. Keep cooked meat, poultry and fish, and the gravy or broth made from them, in covered containers in the refrigerator. Use within 1 or 2 days. Cured and smoked meats - ham, frankfurters, bacon, sausage - can be stored in their original containers in the refrigerator. Mild cured hams are similar to fresh meats in keeping quality. Use whole hams within a week, half hams and slices within 3 to 5 days. For best flavor, use bacon, franks, and smoked sausages within a week. EGGS To help maintain quality, store eggs in the refrigerator promptly after purchase - large end up. For best flavor and cooking quality, use eggs within 1 week, if possible. Eggs held in the refrigerator for a long time may develop off-flavor and lose some thickening and leavening power. Cover leftover yolks with cold water and refrigerate in a tightly covered container. Use leftover yolks or whites within 1 or 2 days. FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES Fresh fruits should be ripe when stored in the refrigerator. Some unripe fruits will ripen if left for a time at room temperature - preferably in a cool j room between 60 and 70 degree F. Keep bananas at room temperature. They will turn dull brown if refrigerated. Sort berries and cherries; then refrigerate, unwashed. Use promptly. Refrigerate ripe pineapple. Sweet corn keeps best if refrigerated uncovered in husks; use it promptly. Removing tops from carrots, beets, and radishes reduces wilting. Storing potatoes in a cool, dark place prevents greening. Hold at room temperature until ripe; then refrigerate, uncovered: Apples, Apricots, Avocados, Berries, Cherries, Grapes, Melons (except watermelons), Nectarines, Peaches, Pears, Plums and Tomatoes. * Store in cool room or refrigerate, uncovered:! Grapefruit, Lemons, Limes and Oranges. Store in cool room, away from bright light: Onions (mature), Potatoes, Rutabagas, Squash' (winter) and Sweetpotatoes. ‘ Refrigerate, covered: Asparagus, Beans (snap or wax), \ Beets, Broccoli, Cabbage, Carrots, ] Cauliflower, Celery, Corn' (husked), Cucumbers, Greens, Onions (green), Parsnips, Peas (shelled), Peppers (geen), Radishes, Squash (summer) and Turnips. Refrigerate, uncovered: Beans (lima, in pods), Corn (in husks), Peas (in pods), Pineapples and Watermelons. * FATS AND OILS ‘ Refrigerate lard, butter, margarine, drippings, and opened ! containers of cooking and salad oils. You can store most firm5 vegetable shortenings (those that1 have been hydrogenated), covered, at room temperature. Refrigerate opened jars of salad dressing; do not freeze. CANNED, FROZEN AND DRIED FOODS Canned foods -- stored in a dry place at room temperature (not over 70 degrees F.) Frozen Foods - Can be stored in freezing unit of refrigerator up to 1 week. For jonger storage^ keep in a freezer degrees Fr Dried foods -- Store dried fruits 1 in tightly closed containers at room temperature (not above 70 degrees F.). In warm, humid weather, refrigerate. Store nonfat dry milk in a closed container at a temperature of 75 degrees F. or lower. Because of its higher milkfat content, dry whole milk does not keep as well as nonfat dry milk. Keep dry whole milk in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate reconstituted dry milk as you would fresh fluid milk.

Recently while driving past a cemetery, I noticed some flowers peeping up through the snow. From somewhere in the past this phrase passed through my mind; ‘flowers from memory’s bouquet.’ Memories have a way of lingering long after the ones involved in that memory have passed on. It seems that memory tints the past with a rosy glow, things that seemed rather awful i when they happened are less bad in retrospect. Time heals wounds. Memory is a wonderful gift of God. Pity the very young, they have so little to remember. We of advanced years can relive so: many delightful moments, our first love, that first kiss so | awkward and clumsy at the time, yet so thrillingly tender in memory. Wait, memory brings sadness, There are many graves covered with snow, many of those who live in our memories are with us no more. That first love of mine has slept beneath the sod for many years now, that is the physical part. I like to think that out there in God’s great eternity her blithe spirit lives on. Let us so live that when we are only memories, those who remember us at all, will remember us with kindness. give... so more will live HEART FUND BEWARE! THE MONSTERS ARE COMING!

Monday night following the first} games of the District 10; Tournament, the four top teams, Luray, Broadway, Montevideo and Turner Ashby, had all survived their openers. While Luray and Montevideo breezed by their opponents to win handily, the other two didn’t have it quite so easy. The Knights just got by Central, and the game of interest on the local scene saw Rappahannock give second-seeded Broadway a real battiest Winchester before going down, 72-58. That final score made the Gobbler win seem more decisive than it actually was. The exciting first half was a nip-and-tuck affair which ended with the underdog Panther squad trailing by but a single point, 34-33. Showing a lot of hustle, the Rapps managed to stay within three points of the tall and talented Gobblers in the opening minutes of the third period. With 5:26 remaining, the Broadway contingent saw their advantage evaporate and the aggressive Panthers go out to a 41-40 lead. Then, sparked by the play of C. W. Grandle and towering center Rod Burkholder, the Gobblers began to come to life. When the Panthers had previously been able to work the ball in, the Broadway defense forced long shots which were off the mark. By the time the final stanza had gotten underway, the Panthers were still very much in contention but had fallen back to a 55-47 deficit. In those last eight minutes of play, the Gobblers gradually widened the gap with Rappahannock still missing the desperation shots as well as numerous free throws from the foul line. Six more points were added to the cushion as the final buzzer sounded with the PUBLIC AUCTION SALE Located at Boston, Virginia on Route 522, a half-mile west of Deane’s Store.

From The Book “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) Ever since the day Pontius Pilate sounded the skeptic’s question, “What is truth?”, men have been searching for answers. Philosophers have failed to get to the heart of things. Scientists have done much in technology, but they have not explained the nature of the universe or the world. The Bible believer sees the universe as God-centered. God has created it and He sustains it. All truth proceeds from Him. The earth serves a purpose in God’s plan as the habitation of man. But there is a problem - the cause of which is sin - because man is in rebellion against the will of God. Jesus Christ came to solve the problem of sin and rebellion by revealing the love of God and dying on the cross for sinners. He is the way to God. He is the life because He gives eternal life. He is the truth in that He reveals God and brings men to God. Have you believed? James W. Adkins 4-H Achievement— (Continued from Page 1) for achievement.

C. and Sperryville. Soc. Security Many people are asking questions at the social security office about how the higher tax contributions will affect their future payments at retirement time. Contributions will be deducted on earnings up to $7,800 in 1969 and people earning $7,800 or over a year will ,pay $31.20 more social security tax for the year. This is caused by the tax rate increasing 2/5 of one percent beginning with the 1969 tax year. use the table, Mr. Boyle pointed out. The table is furnished as a guide for the convenience of taxpayers who want to deduct a “standard” amount for state sales tax, which does not require .detailed substantiation. Taxpayers who prefer to : deduct the actual amount of state i sales taxes paid during the year imust have records as proof of payment. This amounts to 2 cents more on each $5.00 of earnings. The effect of the higher maximum earnings will be noticeable even though the maximum possible benefit will not be payable in the near future. For example, a man who is age 50 in 1968 and earns $7,800 or more until he is age 65, will be able to receive a payment of $188.80 a month at age 65. This is about 21% more than he could have gotten before the 1967 amendments to the law. If this man’s wife is the same age, she will receive $94.40 a month. A family group in the future can receive as much as $434.40 a month when the rate is figured solely on yearly earnings of $7,800. Younger workers should realize that every year they pay social security contributions, the protection for their family is being increased. If you would like additional information about this phase of social security, get in touch with your local social security office at 20 S. Cameron St., Winchester. Office hours are 8:45 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and the telephone number is 667-1511. BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS .. Rappahannock County NOTICE C. E. Johnson, Jr. and James W.
