Here he receives a soil sample from Gordon Thornhill of Boston. Mr. Brumback will be working with the young people in 4-H projects and will spend two weeks here and two weeks in Warren County where he is also assistant agent. Miss Green Retires From Accountants Post Miss Phoebe Green has retired from her position of accountant in the Treasurer’s Office of the College of William and Mary after 23 years. She has moved to her home at Amissville which she had built several years ago in anticipation of this day. Miss Green was born and reared near Amissville and prior to going to Williamsburg to her position at the college, she worked at Grayson’s Department Store in Schools Closed March 11 Rappahannock Schools will close at 2 p.m. next Tuesday, March 11 for teachers to attend a special meeting. Warrenton as a bookkeeper and buyer. Miss Green was feted with numerous parties by many friends reluctant to see her leave Williamsburg. Among these were her office colleagues, her church and a fraternity for which she had served as chaperone for 12 years. Cadet Conners Promoted Cadet Lawrence Sanford Conners, son of Mr. and Mrs. Emory Conners of Woodville, has been promoted to the rank of Sergeant First Class in the Cadet Corps of Frederick Military Academy, Portsmouth. Cadet Conners is a member of the plainsmen rifle and pistol club, wrestling team, and the Spanish club. The annual Blue and Gold Banquet for Cub Scouts in Rappahannock was held Friday evening at the fire hall in Flint Hill. Eyeing dessert before dinner are members of Den 2 of Pack 123, Tom Lee, Bryant Welch, Wendy Davis and Johnny Vest. The Den is headed by Mrs. Janet Vest. Mrs. David Hobbs and daughter Cindy of Washington buy apple jeOy from Carter Moffett, Janet Hackley, Stewart Hawkins, and Stuart Palmer. These young people helped the Rappahannock Jaycees to sell jelly Sunday. Proceeds from the sales go toward the establishment of a camp in Virginia for mentally retarded children Local Tax Deduc. Averaging $1,230 Residents of Rappahannock County who are working on their Federal income tax returns and itemizing their deductions may find it advantageous to compare their figures with those of other people at the same income level. Are their deductions above or below the average? Are their listings of charitable contributions, interest, taxes and medical expenditures relatively high or low? i For the individual taxpayer, to know how his deductions compare with those of other people in his income bracket could be very helpful. Some light is shed on the subject by the Commerce Clearing House, national authority on tax and business law, and by the Internal Revenue Service. They have released data showing what the deductions have generally amounted to in recent years at each income level. Where average earnings are of the size of those prevailing in Rappahannock County, it is found that the deductions come to approximately $1,230, or about 22 percent of the adjusted gross income. In families with lower-than-average earnings, the amounts deducted represent a larger proportion of their income. Conversely, for those with higher incomes, the percentage deducted is smaller. For example, those that gross $5,500 a year deduct about 22 percent normally. The ones that are in the $17,500 class, on the other hand, have deductions of only 16 percent. Local families who are in the $6,500 income category will be deducting about $1,380 this year if they have had average outlays. At the $12,000 income level, the deductions will be around $2,160. A breakdown of the $1,230 in deductions claimed by most taxpayers with incomes equal to the Rappahannock County average shows that $204 of it represents contributions, $396 is for interest on loans and installment debt, $345 for local taxes and $285 for medical expenses. It is pointed out that the figures are solely a guide to what most people are listing as deductions and that proper records must be available to back up all claims. Chester Gap Area Forms Scout Troop A Boy Scout Troop has been organized at Chester Gap for boys of that area, and has been assigned as Troop No. 80. The organizational meeting was held last Wednesday evening under the supervision of Hubie Gilkey and Floyd Lilly with eleven boys attending. All boys 12 through 18 are invited to join the group and meetings are scheduled for each Wednesday evening at the Chester Gap fire hall beginning at 7:30 p.m. I Fire and Rescue \ Squad Notes The Amissville Rescue Squad took Mrs. Annie Scott of Viewtown to Manassas Medical Center on February 26. Tuesday, March 4 they took Sean Self, 17 months old, to Fauquier Hospital, Warren ton following a fall. The Amissville Fire Company responded to a brush fire Tuesday afternoon at the property of H. Scharmer. Rappahannock Rescue Squad took Billy Estes, HI to the Culpeper Memorial Hospital on Sunday. That afternoon a person was taken from the Sky-line Sky Area to the Culpeper Memorial Hospital. Flint Hill Squad took Henry Jenkins from an automobile wreck near Flint Hill to the Warren Memorial Hospital, Monday night. On February 27, Flint hill ambulance took Frank Coffey from home in Sperryville to 'he Martha Jefferson Hospital in Charlottesville for removal of a cast and returned him to his home. Panther’s Settle Named All-Star by Donnie Johnston Rappahannock’s Bobby Settle has been named a member of the District 10 All Star Basketball Team. Settle led the Panthers in scoring, average and free throw percentage. His 18.5 average was third in the district. Also named to the All Star team were Terry Taylor of Montevideo; Lloyd Spinner of Central and Bruce Tutt and Grady Arrington of the District 10 regular season and tournament champion Luray Bulldogs. Taylor led the district in scoring with 377 points for a 20.9 average. Spinner was a top rebounder and scorer and led Central to a surprising third place tie finish with Turner Ashby. Tutt did an outstanding job in directing Luray’s attack from his guard position while Arrington proved the top rebounder in the district. A second all-star team is comprised of Edgar Ausberry of Strasburg; John Swink of Montevideo; Rod Burkholder of Broadway; Roy Reeve, Rappahannock and Jodie Wampler, Turner Ashby. All named are seniors. Luray took the District 10 championship Wednesday with a 75-65 triumph over Broadway. The Gobblers had defeated Montevideo 79-51 to gain the finals. Luray will meet Midlothian High in the regionals at the University Collegium at Charlottesville and at present it seems that only Park View of South Hill has a chance to stop the Bulldogs from their second Group II State crown in three years. District 10 Turner Ashby also won the Group II state crown last year. Trooper Buntin Investigates Crashes Saturday’s snow was the apparent cause of a two-car collision on Route 211 four miles ,west of Sperryville about 10:15 ja.m. A 68 Mustang operated by (Michael Edward Cinnamon of Centreville and owned by his father Charles Cinnamon and a 69 Olds operated by Lucille Stroupe of Falls Church were involved. The Cinnamon car skidded on the snowy pavement and sideswiped the Stroupe vehicle. No charges were made and damage was estimated at $100 to the Mustang and $600 to the Stroupe car, said Trooper W. A. Buntin who investigated. At 9:30 p.m. Monday night (Continued on Page <>) Rappahannock Races Rescheduled for* March 9 Aper Snow Postponement Last Saturday’s snowstorm forced postponement of the 20th annual Rappahannock Point-to-Point Races, to Sunday, March 9. The first event, a pair race over jumps, will be run at 12:30 p.m., followed by two flat races and four jumping races. Feature event will be for gentlemen owner-riders, the Ben Venue. The famous Hound Race has over 50 entries to date. General parking is $1.00 per car and general admission is $1.50 per person with refreshments to be sold by Rappahannock Jaycees. Site of the races i.< Thornton Hill Farm on Rt. 522 two miles south of Sperryville.

ASCS Urges Avoid Late Program Signup “Come early and avoid the crowd,” was the perennial advice from Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Offices across the country as the 7-week period for producer signup in farm programs passed mid-point and edged toward its March 21 deadline. Although ASCS offices in Virginia will take applications to participate in the farm programs anytime through March 21, producers are urged to file applications as early as possible, according to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee. The programs are voluntary and [ farmers sign up for them in order [to take part, Mr. Barksdale said. ] Signup brings into focus crop I plans for the year ahead. In short, farmers indicated their intentions to take part in the programs for 1969, including the extent to which they will participate in the wheat and feed grain programs. Under the feed grain program for 1969, farmers may earn | diversion and price-support payments as well as qualify for price-support loans on their com, barley, and grain sorghum crops. ITie wheat program provides diversion payments for reducing acreage below the farm allotment, and price support loans on all the wheat produced on the farm. It also provides marketing certificates to bring returns up to full parity on the part of t h e wheat crop allocated for domestic use. Roy Heltzel, Soil Conservationist, Spoke to Amissville Ruritans By H. R. Terhune The monthly meeting of the Amissville Ruritan Club was marked by the usual good dinner served by the Amissville Homemakers’ Club. It was followed by a discussion of planned events to come and an excellent talk on the Agrobusiness given by Roy Teltzel of the Soil Conservation Department in Culpeper. Mr. Heltzel showed slides and outlined a detailed account of the very important changes and new enterprises in the southeast which are the outgrowth and new phases of old-time farming. Automation in poultry raising and processing, in hog and cattle feeding and in the handling of soybeans and other grains for domestic and foreign trade gave a sense of pride to the Southerner and the ingenuity .which marked this startling progress from corn and cotton to turkeys and supermarkets. In a business session preceding the guest speaker, plans were outlined for the club’s outstanding ham and turkey dinner to the public. This event is scheduled for March 29 and according to Chairman Charlie Priest, not only will there be an all inclusive menu, but also a very valuable surprise door prize, which will be identified in the near future. The club sponsored baseball club will be confined to 8-12 year olds, but plans were proposed to make this team replete with uniforms and even a bona fide dug-out. The Education Committee received approval for its plans to offer recognition and an award to an outstanding member of the senior class of Rappahannock County High School and to a faculty member who has distinguished himself in his chosen field. The club also moved to join a cooperative proposal by the Ruritan Zone Governor. This plan offers a sizeable award to winners in an essay contest on the subject “Why 1 Obey Law and Order”. This contest will be conducted in Rappahannock, Culpeper and Orange high schools with a winner chosen from each school and a final winner selected from the three finalists. Looking forward to April, the young folks can anticipate the excitement of an Easter Egg Hunt to be held April 6. Three RCHS Student: Named Outstanding Three senior girls at Rappahannock County High School have been elected to the Society of Outstanding American High School Students. They are Beth O’Bannon, daughter of Mr and Mrs. J. M. O’Bannon of Woodville, Janet Hackley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Hackley of Amissville and Carte' Moffett, whose parents are Judg< and Mrs. V,'. F. Moffett, Jr. oi Washington. According to the notic< received by parents of the seniors, “The purpose of the society is to honor graduating seniors who have the highest scholastic standings and have displayed leadership in extra-curricular and civic activities....with this honor your daughter becomes eligible to compete for a $1,000 scholarship to be presented by the society....your daughter will be honored in a book entitled “Outstanding American High School Students” which will include a biographical listing of her high school accomplishments and honors. Rappahannock County Elementary School was under inspection last week by representatives of the county firemens association. Firemen from the various companies in the county were present at the local elementary school last Thursday to observe a regular fire drill at the school From their observations suggestions could be made for more efficient evacuation from the 30-room facility and an inspection of the'building, its water supply, heating plant, etc. was made. In the furnace room are Ed Clark, Emory Russell. Pat LaWlor, Douglas Bywaters and Braxton James The inspection will enable the fire companies of the county through the association to map plans for procedures should a Cue occur.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Va. 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 Dear Editor: What do we consider to be our county’s greatest asset at the present and for the future? Is it and will it be land, orchards, agriculture, industry, scenic beauty, or children? Personally, I feel it is and will be its children. No greater investment, therefore, can be made than in its children. These children are the future and their future depends upon their education. This education, adequate or inadequate, is the responsibility of each of us asi citizens. An adequate education! will require more money — taxes! — so that each child may be given the opportunity to develop his potential. We now have new buildings and equipment. But can these alone give the full opportunity to the children? You and I know without educated and dedicated teachers no child can reach his full potential. While Rappahannock has been progressing very slowly in regards to the salary scale of its teachers it is still far behind other counties. The salary scale for Rappahannock’s teachers should not only be comparable to Warren County but it should be higher. I can just hear the Whys. This is for several reasons. One is the fact that some of the staff must live outside of the county due to the lack of living quarters in the county. Also, for most of their entertainment teachers must travel outside of Rappahannock and they do need recreation sometimes. If you do not agree with this ask permission to follow a teacher in the classroom for one day. Then remember that work continues after hours with planning, coaching, and paper work. With this observation, I believe the life of teachers would be understood. Another reason is competition. A survey I recently read showed the teacher shortage for this year is estimated at half a million. This survey also says there is nationwide competition between school systems and that recruiting would be aided by increasing salaries. Each year in the past, 1 believe there has been quite a “turnover” in this school staff. This is a great loss to the children, the school as a whole and to us ^ investors. Tliis need not happen if we realize the necessity for a higher scale than the one the teachers now have. I, as many of you, have no children to go to school. I do have cousins who attend. Many of you may have closer relatives — grandchildren, nieces or nephews who attend now or will soon. All of these children are important to me and should be to every citizen. Yes, I pay taxes and it isn’t easy for me either. As soon as it was announced that we would be allowed to see our assessments for ‘69 I went to see my assessment. No assessor ever saw me and 1 have never been given the reason for the raise in the assessment. 1 was told at that time the tax rate would probably be at least $5.00. When dates were set for complaints to be heard I made no complaint for I realized the tax rate must be high to do some “catching up” in our county’s educational system. I feel sure there are others who made no complaint for a similar reason. For the betterment of the county’s future we must be willing to make sacrifices, if necessary, and accept a higher rate of taxation to increase the salary of our teachers. We can no longer get “gold bricks for pennies”. TTie issue of the teacher salary scale will be discussed this Friday, March 7 at the meeting of the Board of Supervisors. In the meantime let each of us ask ourselves can we afford not to give our children the best? All of us are and have been apathetic about attending public meetings. I am guilty; however, I have been attending the meetings of the Board of Supervisors for WEDDING BELLS iWlWftW-tWlW'IW'iWI WILL SOON BE RINGING For Planning and Catering, Call Rappahannock Catering Service and be at ease ! H. and I. Scharmer um Amissville, Va. Phone 937-4432 more than a year. More and more I realize the importance for people to attend these meetings. By this, one can leam directly the important questions and issues for discussion. Then one can be qualified to give expression to ones opinion. A few days ago when I told my supervisor that I wanted to talk with him he laughed and said, “I know what you going to say”. Now you have read what I felt I must tell my supervisor before March 7th. All of us, including the county have spent money in many unnecessary ways. Why should we grumble about spending money for the best possible investment — the education of our children? Annie Miller Almond Ag Hints Lee Brumback Asst. Extension Agent Agriculture Grass tetany time is here again. For those farms having a tetany history problem the following will be of interest: Feed 1/2 ounce magnesium oxide per day per brood cow to those cows being fed rations such as silage. Where feeding is not practical (and it seldom is with beef cows) keep a mixture of half salt and half magnesium oxide before them at all times. Don’t feed other sources of salt and when on a succulent feed such as new grass or silage they will generally take enough to be effective. **** Studded Tire Performance K. D. Bird and F. R. Haselton of Cornell’s Aeronautical Laboratory have revealed a number of interesting findings about the performance of the often controversial studded snow tires. After collecting and analyzing experimental data on the braking, traction and cornering performance of studded tires on ice, packed snow and wet and dry bare pavements, the two researchers concluded, among other things, that: The more studs that are used in each tire (up to at least 260) - providing that there is a minimum of 12 studs in each circumferential line - the greater the tire’s resistance to sliding on ice or snow. On bare concrete or asphalt pavements, however, increasing the number of studs per ifre above 100 increases the stopping distance required. (Two hundred studs per tire may lengthen the stopping distance by 5 to 8 percent.) The studs’ resistance to sliding on ice is maximum at 32 degree F. and this resistance decreases linearly as the temperature drops. There is little difference in stopping distances between a car equipped only with highway tread tires and one equipped entirely with studded tires at temperatures of 0 degrees F. and below. Significant performance gains in an automobile’s cornering ability on glare ice are achieved with studded tires on both front and rear wheels. (For example, a car with unstudded tires in rounding a corner at 30 m.p.h. might negotiate that same cornel Good NA:BOR Store JjPERRYVILLE QORNER JTORE uvwwwwvvwwvvw .SPF.RRYVT1.1 F VA. c***»^^v*v**x^v^v^vv-vvv PORK CHOPS lG9' Center Cut PORK ROAST.lb. 50c Plee-Zing 16-oz.

A final point made by Bird and laselton was that while the ‘empirical approach to studded ire development which has been lsed in this country has resulted n a product which offers a lignificant measure of jerformance improvement,” leeded research on basic stud-ice nechanics has not yet been iccomplished. (Taken from the Missouri CES, September, 1968 Agrineer) **** A farriers school is held at Vlartinsville, Va. for a 12 week period. They can handle 16 students at a time, cost is $1200 including board, room, books and equipment. Another 12 weeks can be taken for cost of board and room only. Becoming a horse shoer may be of interest to a number of our young people. The horse population is growing by leaps and bounds in the state of Virginia including Rappahannock. For further details write: Martinsville School of Farriery, Martinsville, Va. The trend to hybrid cabbage has come about rather rapidly in the past few years. Several outstanding hybrids are available. For your information and use, I have compiled notes from my trials at Blacksburg and commercial fields, and will summarize these results below. Varieties - of the many available, I would suggest at least four. These are: Little Rock - 82 days, a short cored variety, having medium blue-green color, outstanding holding ability, and excellent uniformity. It is yellows resistant, free of black speck, resistant to bacterial spot and has good cold resistance. Heads firm up at 2Vi to 3 lbs. and hold well without splitting. Source - Ferry Morse. Market Prize - 76 days, very uniform, heads firm at 2V: - 3 lbs. Deep blue-green color, widely adapted, has produced satisfactorily in yellows infested soil. Becoming well known by plant growers and produce buyers. Source: Joseph Harris. Market Topper - 73 days, a uniform hybrid having medium blue-green color, solid heads, good shipping qualities, yellows resistance, and will hold marketable size for sometime without bursting. Core length is moderately long. Rio Verde - I have very little information on this variety, except from observations in variety plantings where it looked very - gootJv - similar to Market Topper with regards to color, uniformity, and vigor, maturity, holding characteristics, and firmness. Core length is medium. Three early maturing, high quality hybrids are Market Dawn, (63 days), C-C Cross (61 days), and Emerald Cross (63 days). All three of these varieties can be harvested immediately after reaching 2'h - 4 lbs. size since they burst readily. Also, Market Dawn is the only one that has yellows resistance. However, some sunscald of the top leaf on the head of Market Dawn has been observed. Some of the best hybrid cabbage production I have seen has been in Carroll County. The better growers there generally grow their own plants, mostly Little Rock and Market Topper, set on herbicide treated land, spacing plants 8 to 10 inches apart in rows 34 to 36 inches apart, giving a population of 16,000 to 26,000 plants per acre. Systemic insecticides are used, as well as recommended insecticide in the transplant water for root maggot control. Supplementary irrigation is used by some growers, and is of extreme importance in producing uniform high quality cabbage during dry periods. Harvesting is much more efficient with hybrids” whce as many as 90% of the hearts are of the right size for cutting at one time. Most of the cabbage heads are protected by 3-4 wrapper leaves left on when cut. Besides local sources, seeds of the varieties listed may be obtained from the following companies.

Several other companies list some or all of these varieties, and the companies above carry many other cabbage varieties. Today’s Woman Judy Burtner Extension Agent, Home Economics With the advent of sealed motors, refrigerators, normally require no mechanical maintenance, some manufactures recommend an occasional vacuuming of the condensers while the refrigerator is disconnected. Some refrigerators require weekly or bi-weekly defrosting, some reqifire occasional defrosting, others no defrosting. Individual instruction books give detailed information for this type of care. All refrigerators however, require a thorough cleaning every week or 10 days to avoid odors. Precautionary procedures can cut the time spent on cleaning, if you wash and/or wipe off any packaged foods before placing them in the refrigerator; if you cover all liquids or leftovers to prevent spillage and if you wipe up or remove, immediately, any spilled or dropped food. This prevents staining and eliminates any difficulty to remove particles at regular cleaning time. To clean interior cabinet, remove shelves and accessories of the refrigerator, wash the interior cabinet, the food storage compartment and the freezer area, with warm water to which a little baking soda has been added; rinse and dry thoroughly and return them to the refrigerator. To clean exterior cabinet, wash with a warm, sudsy cloth; rinse and dry thoroughly. An occasional waxing of the exterior surface of the refrigerator and polishing of the metal trim with products recommended by the manufacturer, helps maintain its attractive Finish.

Most important is don’t open the refrigerator door more often than necessary. With each opening the air in the refrigerator is warmed and the mechanism must work to cool it again. Close the door gently to protect the latch. Don’t crowd the refrigerator. This interferes with the circulation of air and overworks the mechanism to maintain a cold temperature. Remove store wrappings from foods before putting them in the refrigerates/; paper acts as insulation. Many pre-packaged foods, however, such as frozen foods, cheese, cold meats, cold cuts and butter store safely in their original containers. Use leftovers, promptly, while they are still fresh. When they accumulate, they take up valuable storage space. Dates to Remember: Amissville Homemakers’ Club ■ Thursday, March 6, 7:30 p.m. Amissville Baptist Church. Care and Use of Sewing Machine.

Maybe some of the other things mentioned in this column have . some merit. ' Speaking of roads, several years 1 ago the railroads improved their 1 roadbeds by lowering their steep inclines and raising lower levels to avoid sharp dips. They laid “high iron” rails to increase their safe speed potential. They also eliminated the curves that were too acute. I don’t know what would constitute an acute curve in railroad terminology, but I saw an acute curve the other day. Vital statistics about thirty-four, twenty-two. --Oh oh, I’m supposed to be thinking about roads. Some young lovers came out to see us some time ago and remarked on the romantic nature of our road. I agree the road has its beauty, but it is not my idea of romance to meet someone on a curve and have to back up around a huge rock. Crushed fenders - well, I’m not much of a “cusser” but I think some mean thoughts at times. I tried to work out a little poem about our road. Here it is. There’s a road I like to follow Far outside the town, O’er the ridge and down the hollow, Winding up and down. A little road, just a byway, And any time I roam This little road I call MY WAY Always leads me home.
