Road Hearing, Teachers Salaries, Major Issues Facing Supervisors Major issues confronting the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors at the April meeting held Friday were teachers salaries, secondary roads and the salaries of county officials and personnel. The meeting was opened with the annual road hearing scheduled and advertised for this day. Resident Engineer James K. Skeens was present to hear proposals and answer questions of residents attending. Among requests were the widening and improvement of Routes 645, 640, 637 in the Amissville area; 621 and 604 near Woodville; 626 at Rock Mills; Route 717 near Slate Mills and petitions for 600 and 671 in the Sperryville area; the Flint Hill end of 637 and also 663 in that area. R. E. Wood of Sperryville, Chairman of the Safety Committee for Rappahannock, expressed concern over blind curves and hills on many of the secondary roads and was concerned about the poor engineering of the intersection at Massies Corner where Routes 211 and 522 intersect Mr. Skeens reported that the entire budget for secondary roads this fiscal year which ends June 31 was $250,000 and the aim of the Highway Department is to keep the maintenance program and the construction program balanced. Mr. Skeens was sympathetic to all requests and declared that every endeavor was and would be made to obtain the most for the tax dollar. According to figures released Tuesday by the Virginia Department of Highways secondary road funds for Rappahannock in 1909-70 will total $300,108. J. Newbill Miller, Board Chairman, along with several others voiced the opinion that a larger percent of road funds should be channeled to the secondary system instead of the primary. However, Mr. Skeens explained the method used for assaying road needs, and said he felt the distribution in Virginia was very good. Mr. Skeens also announced that bids on the Route 211 bypass of the Town of Washington would be let next month and construction should begin by the middle of the summer. This will be a limited access section in the arterial highway system. Much discussion was had before a motion was made and passed for teacher salaries in Rappahannock to start at $6,000 (Continued on Page 2) Trout fishermen were out in greet numbers Set unis y for the opening of the trout fishing season which began at noon.

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. Today’s Woman Judy Burtner Extension Agent, Home Economics Shopping in the Supermarket You’ll find shopping easier when you are in surroundings that appeal to you, where the kinds of food you and your family prefer are offered, and where services that mean most to you are available whether these be ample parking, fast check-out lines, cheerful clerks, parcel loading service, or any Sf the other “extras” modern supermarkets offer to attract and hold customers. Make this choice your own way, if you are responsible for the family shopping, and decide what hour of which day best suits your needs and preferences. If you are new to a community, ask the store manager what hours offer the least congested shopping time, and which days of the week his store offers specials. Many so-called “weekend specials” are offered from mid-week on, and you may find your schedule permits shopping during uncrowded times. Learn where the various departments are located and arrange your shopping list to suit the store layout. Get into the habit of taking an organized list to the store. Five minutes spent on this at home can save courtless steps in the supermarket, and can help prevent overtooKing some neeaea items on a scrambled shopping list. The well organized list will also do much to keep your husband happy when you ask him to do the shopping for you. Frozen foods are the one exception to the shopping plan rule, unless they are the last department before check-out Add frozen foods to youi shopping cart at the last possible moment before getting into the check-out line. This shortens the time they are away from zero storage. Be sure the packet protects them with double papet bags or insulated bags. Then get home as quickly as possible aftei your grocery shopping is Finished Supermarket Etiquette Be Careful: Push carts with care. If you accidentally bump your cart into someone, stop anc spologize sincerely. Be gentle: Avoid unnecessar) handling of fresh fruits anc vegetables. Be neat: If you knocl something off a shelf, pick it up and put it back. If yoi accidentally break something, cal a clerk so he can clean it up. Be orderly: If you change youi mind about buying something return the item to its propel shelf. Be organized: Complete all your shopping before entering the check-out line. Asking someone else to push your cart forward while you pick up forgotten items is not cricket. Be smart: Learn the rules of the “express line”. Usually, it’s the number of items, not the number of pieces that count. In most stores six loaves of bread and eight cans of soup are two items. Be cooperative: Place merchandise on the counter so the cashier can see pieces. Keep “two for” items together. Be ethical: Don’t ask the store to redeem “cents off” coupons for items not part of your purchases. Be business-like: Have your money ready, so you don’t delay the check-out line while you get a check cashed. Be kind: If you take a cart to your car in the parking lot, wheel it back to the area designated for empty carts. Never take a cart off the store premises. RAPP CHATS Rap Outings Extension Agent, Agriculture Last week we were talking about how yearling producers could pick up a few extra dollars per steer just by implanting with stillbestrol. Well, tomorrow afternoon, Friday, April 11, we will be implanting 74 head at Mr. Manwaring’s North Red Oak Farm. If you are interested in seeing how easy and quickly this job can be done, drop by between 1 and 3 p.m. The way I figure it is that after all expenses including labor are taken off, Mr. Manwaring will be making $600 I for an afternoon’s work. Newbill Miller reminded me that now is the time to spray for control of thistles. For good results, spray while the thistles are still in the rosette stage or before they are 8-12 inches tall. Spray any time now when the temperature will reach 60 degrees or higher during the warmest part of the day and the wind is less than 5 miles per hour. Early morning or late afternoon, when the air is still, is often the ideal time to spray. 2,4-D amine or low volatile ester is still the recommended spray material. Some of the counties have had damage to vegetable gardens shade trees and orchards resulting from 2,4-D spray drift. Hope we can keep problems like this from happening in Rappahannock. DON’T BE A DRIFTER - keep spray pressure between 20-3C pounds per square inch, spray boom- close to the top of plants and don’t spray on windy days ******** See you at the Beef Cattle Production Testing Clinic, 10 [fl.m. at Still House Hollow Farm April 14 and at the Culpeper Feeder Calf Sale Thursday, April 17.

Many State Tax Returns Not Filed In the final week of the filing period for 1968 Federal income tax returns, James P. Boyle, IRS District Director for Virginia, said today that approximately 500,000 Virginians remain to meet the midnight, April 15, deadline. Individual income tax returns for 1968 mailed by taxpayers to the Internal Revenue Service Center, Philadelphia, Pa., 19155, will be accepted as timely filed if they are postmarked on or before midnight, Tuesday, April 15, 1969, Mr. Boyle said. Director Boyle expressed his appreciation to Virginia taxpayers for their excellent cooperation in mailing their refund returns and returns with payments to the IRS Service Center in Philadelphia. Of the million returns that have been filed by Virginians, 99.1 percent were mailed to the Service Center. This is the highest record for the five states and the District of Columbia which are serviced by the Philadelphia Service Center. More than 60,000 refunds for Virginians have been delayed because of taxpayer errors, Mr. Boyle said. The three areas accounting for over 50 percent of all errors are, missing or incomplete social security numbers, missing wage statements, Forms W-2, or tax schedules, and incorrect tax computation. According to the records of the Service Center in Philadelphia, 493,558 refund returns have been processed for Virginia taxpayers who have received a total of $87.5 million. 11 STOP BURGLARS.

Barksdale, Chairman of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee. “I strongly urge those who have added to or reduced the size of their farms to get the information to the county office before signup time for the commodity programs,” said Chairman Barksdale. He pointed out that when the size of a farm is changed, the ASCS records must be changed, including recalculation of farm allotments and basefl^ “We call it farm reconstitution,” he said, “and if the reconstitutions have been made and approved by the county committee before signup time, it saves time and effort for everybody.

Norton, Superintendent of Schools here, stated he was a month later than usual in beginning to recruit teachers for 1969-70 school year. Mr. Norton also stated that the school budget for 1969-70 will require $64,000 more than the budget for the year now in progress. Ways and means of broadening the tax base of the county were discussed with several thoughts voiced on the subject by interested individuals attending the meeting. Among those were a county tax on beer and wines and a head tax of $10 per person. However, the legality of such would have to be investigated and ascertained and proper legislation instituted before such could take place. Some officials of the county had petitioned the Board and the State Compensation Commission Old Hollow swimming hole was a popular place for trout fishermen on opening day Saturday. All ages came out to try their luck for some rainbows or browns, and many were successful. for an increase in salary. These were Commonwealth’s Attorney whose present salary is $4,400 wishes an increase to $5,830; for the secretary of that office with a present salary of $2,000 for half time an increase to $2,360 is desired. The other portion of the secretary’s salary is from the Sheriff’s office and stands at $2,140 with a request for an increase to $2,360. The Sheriff draws $5,450 now and requests $5,830; the Deputy Sheriff presently stands at $4,280 and a proposal is made for $4,800; the jailer who presently draws $3,381 wishes $3,618. The Treasurer now receives compensation in the amount of $6,000 and requests $7,000; with a request for the secretary in this office to be raised from $4,500 to $5,000; while the Commissioner of Revenue receives $5,500 and proposes $6,000; the secretary here gets $4,500 and requests $5,000. No action was taken on salaries since most Board members stated that the Compensation Commission would do as it wished and would not heed the feelings of the Supervisors. However, a motion was made to leave the salary of the jailer at the present level since he was newly employed and had only held the position for a couple of months. Mrs. Betty Coates and C. E.

Frost Reports On Const. Amendment Delegate Tom Frost reported he was highly pleased that the House of Delegates voted almost 2 to 1 to include in the new constitution the Constitutional Committee’s recommendation for assessing agricultural land. Sixty-two members of the House of Delegates voted in favor of the amendment. The Constitutional Committee recommendation is “The General Assembly may define and classify real estate devoted to agriculture, horticulture, forest or open space uses and provide for the assessment thereof for taxation on the basis of land use, may establish appropriate procedures for the determination of ranges of values applicable to such classification of real estate, may allow release from or deferral of portions of taxes otherwise payable on such real estate if it were not so classified, and may prescribe the limits and extent of such release from or deferral of taxes otherwise payable on such real estate.” The amendment is endorsed by the Commission of Agriculture, Agricultural Board of Virginia, Virginia Farm Bureau Federation, Committee of Industry and Agriculture, Virginia Forests, Inc., Virginia Forestry Council, Virginia Lumber Manufacturer’s Association, and numerous local citizens and groups. Recommendation was developed after one of the most thorough studies on land assessment ever conducted in the United States. Mr. Frost was instrumental in paving the way for the study and served on the study commission conducted under the auspices of the Committee of the Industry of Agriculture. The amendment passed by the house permits, but does not require, the General Assembly to adopt enabling legislation and its application would be at the option of the local governments.

' k..v H »k 2 - 'Ji-d Cars and Trucks — Due to a misprint in last weeks Si Sez I’m afraid there might be some confusion of thought. The word gnostic was changed to agnostic. The gnostics were a sect that thought Christ was too holy to be clothed in mortal flesh. There are several incidents recorded in the Bible that would seem to support such a contention. AGNOSTIC comes from the Greek work AGNOSTOS, not knowing. My dictionary gives this definition of an agnostic - ‘One who neither affirms nor denies the existence of GOD.’ Or in the parlance of today, ‘I couldn’t care less.’ I believe an agnostic is a step ahead of an atheist, one who does not acknowledge God at all. A person once accused me of being an agnostic. I told him that I probably believed more sincerely in God than the average person. I do not confine Him to some mountain top over in Palestine, to me He is everywhere. I do not think He plays any national favoritism. He loves all His creatures, even me. That is a comforting thought, and with that thought I think I will say; GOOD NIGHT, PLEAS ANT DREAMS. Read the Want Ads!

Crumpton, District Manager of the Winchester, Va. Social Security Office, the receipt of ehecks for months of non-work confuses many people. In a recent release Mrs. Crumpton points up the issue by using questions and answers. If after reading the questions below, and you believe you are eligible, or know of someone who is, the local office at 20 S. Cameron St. will be glad to help. They are open Monday through Friday from 8:45 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. and on Saturday morning from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 noon. Question: I am a school teacher and reached 63 this month. I do not work in July and August. I have not filed for my social security. I have heard that I could receive a reduced benefit for those two summer months. Is this true even though I am not yet “retired”? Answer: It is true. You can file an application before July 1969 and receive a reduced benefit for July and August 1968, the two months in which you did not work. Anyone who has some months in which he does no work (or works for wages of $140 a month or less) and does not render substantial services in self-employment should contact his social security office at age 62 to secure information about filing an application for reduced benefits. Question: If I retire at age 62 and take a reduced retirement benefit, how much is my benefit reduced? Answer: You will receive 80% of your age 65 benefit if you take it beginning with the month you reach age 62. The reduction 5/9 of 1% for each month you claim benefits that you are under age 65. Question: If I take reduced retirement benefits at age 62, will they be increased when I reach age 65? Answer: They will not be increased at age 65 unless you return to work between ages 62 and 65 and have earnings high enough to require you to give up one or more months of social security benefits.
