Kenyon, Game Warden ions The 1969-70 deer season closed in Rappahannock County last Monday with 187 deer taken that day. This figure coupled with the 151 taken before the last day added up to an all-time record deer kill in Rappahannock with a total of 338 deer killed and checked. This is almost 4 times the previous year’s kill of 86. Two seasons back the total kill was but 43. The highest total in the past was in 1960 when 288 deer were taken. This year’s kill included 125 does. A number of button bucks and bucks that had dropped their antlers were also taken the last day. The heavy snow along with unusually heavy hunting pressure were mainly responsible for the heavy kill the last day. Even before the last day though, Rappahannock had posted its best deer kill in almost 10 years. It appears deer were plentiful to begin the season. Several factors that probably account for this is the past two bountiful years for game during the rearing period and the other factor, ironically, a lack of food, mainly mast in the mountains during the late fall and early winter. It appears the trend of the deer movement was away from the high ground and the snow after Christmas just pushed them a little harder or a lot harder. The question now is what dot's this year’s high kill mean to deer hunters next year and thereafter. Going back to past kill records again, we can see that following the big kill of almost 300 in i960 the kill just a year later was almost 200. The doe kill of 130 in ’60 was higher than even this years. This would indicate Rappahannock can sustain a high1 kill and still show a good doer population the your after. Whether or not the deer herd can bounce back like that again only | another year will tell. One possible blessing in this1 seeming slaughter is that it appears we were headed for some j starvation among our deer It’s! not that any of the deer taken1 last Monday were in a sturved j condition. Many were smull but | only because they were young. I Rut because of an apparent lack j of mast in the Park and other j higher areas and this prolonged snow covering which appears to be with us for sometime, some starvation appeared inevitable This condition is, of course, relieved with the reduction of the population Quality is the irlain . consideration of any game population even if it means some sacrifice of quantity. Let’s hope the sacrifice especially in|, the Sperryville area was not too great. The' following is the deer kill record for the past two seasons by checking station. Chester Gap, buck 1, 1968*69; 1969-70, Closed. Flint Hill, bucks 17, does 1, 1968- 69; 1969-70, bucks 37, does 12. Washington, bucks 21, 68-69; bucks 54, does 20, 69-70. Sperryville, bucks 26, does 5, 68-69; bucks 105, does 79, 1969- 70. Amissville, bucks 5, does 2, 1968- 69; bucks 5, 1969-70. Total for 1968-69, bucks 70, does, 8; 1969-70, bucks 201, does 111. Checked Out of County, bucks 8, 1968-69; bucks 12, does 14, 1969- 70. Year Totals for 1968-69, bucks 86; 1969-70, 213 bucks, does 125. A number of people have asked about bird feed. The Game Commission does not furnish food for birds. Feeding of Game birds is in most cast's not a feasible practice. A relatively few game birds of the total population can be reached by feeding. When food is put out undesirable species, starling, crows, etc. will get most if not all of it. Feeding tends to concentrate birds and i^ake therm more susceptible to‘ predators. One practice that has jved more successful than feeding la the scraping away of snow so birds can get to grit. Roadways usually provide this but on large areas away from any roads it may be useful to open some such areas. Even with this snow a great deal of food is still available above the snow. Get bobwhlt# down to some grit and hopefully only the weakest will die.

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. Subscriptions (tn advance) $3.00 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.50 East coast; $4.00 mid west; $4.50 West. Letter To Editor Dear Mrs. Latham: Please accept this note as a “Letter to the Editor”. The subject is trash. I have read the letter and notice in the January 8th News and would like to make a suggestion. I make this suggestion because everything published to date, on the subject of trash, has been negative. By negative I mean everyone from the Board of Supervisors to the “News” to the man in the street tells you what y^u CAN’T do with trash. No one in the county ■" is informing the general public as to what they CAN do with trash. As you so well know the story is not complete until you answer who, what, when, where and why. It’s going to take education. Education of five to six thousand people living on two hundred and sixty-seven square miles of the most beautiful land on the face of this earth. Trash removal is something new in the county. It is going to take the help of several agencies to make the system work. As a start I would like to suggest that you reserve a small comer in one gaily of the “News” devoted to the • subject of trash. The “News reaches over half of the county residents each week. If ten percent read a positive ad such as “don’t throw burnable trash in the county dumpsters, get a bum barrel from your fire department.” You have started the wheels in motion. As a follow-on suggestion think the fire departments in the county should go in the business of selling drams usable as containers of burnable trash. This could be a steady and profitable business for the companies and solve a tax problem of the county. As a third suggestion I recommend the health department start a program on disposal. We remove trash for the basic reason that it is detrimental to the well being of the community. The fact that it makes the land look better is secondary. This problem is the responsibility of the county health department. As a fourth suggestion I think the zoning office, the office of the treasurer and the clerk’s office should enclose some sort of t tl trash disposal information with every permit, tax statement or return of deed or survey recorded. This may sound like stupidity but when the people dealing with these offices read that the county offices are concerned with this problem the majority of people will follow, rhese three offices deal with people who own land in Rappahannock. These people lave an investment to protect. As a fifth suggestion it is time the County Agent, the home jgent and the ASCS office involve themselves with this project. Everything we have came from the earth - and it will return. These people make a living from knowing about the land. They should be able to publish thousands of ideas on what to do with unwanted items. These items will return to the earth some day. The trick is to make them return; Dr, put them to use NOW. The rood we throw away each day makes good compost for next gear’s garden - when you know low to treat it. That old hog wire fence, when laid in a double layer, makes good concrete ■enforcement on a small job. rhere are thousands of junk items ;hat can be put to use without spoiling the land. As I said at the beginning of his letter, Rappahannock County s new at this business. I ommend the supervisors for heir effort. With only five to six housand people in a land area of wo hundred and sixty-seven quare miles you still have room Dr the trash. This situation will ot last long and I hope you kick” this program with all your light. It is just the first of many roblems. Pollution in the homton River, junk cars in reiy field in the county, roads lat need paving, roads that need idening, homes that need proper a ter, power and sanitation i icilities, people who need to 1 now how to feed their families a ood dm and WShy Other roblems that make their mark a the land. Rappahannock Dunty is where Virginia reaches > and touches a clear blue sky. ■oper removal of the trash is just te first step in assuring the : >unty is properly dressed for tis occasion.

Stanley During the decade of the 1960’s, significant strides were made in the field of Education. A11 governmental levels, the majority of educators, and even entire communities were affected by the resulting change. In 1965, the Federal Government passed the ‘‘Elementary and Secondary Education Act,’’ which I represented the first massive Federal aid program to public schools. As a participant in this program, the Rappahannock C o unty Public Schools have benefited in the amount of $232,000. This money has helped establish innovative Reading and Special Education programs in Rappahannock Elementary School with the aim of helping raise the achievement levels of elementary students in these areas in order that they may meet with s u ccess in upper elementary grades and high school, One year later. In 1966, Congress passed legislation to establish “Project Head Start’’, i nis program’s aim has been to provide pre-school experiences of an enrichment nature for the disadvantaged child. In this way, such children are more likely to meet with success when they enter primary school. Although Ft appahannock County Public Schools are not presently participating in this program, during the decade of the 1960’s, the Rappahannock County Public School System initiated a similar program in the “Pre-School Readiness Program,” which was beld in Rappahannock County Elementary School for three •weeks last summer. In 1968, the Virginia General Assembly enacted a statewide compulsory school attendance law for those 6 - 17 years of age. HT be general feeling of our legislators, was that Virginia can no longer regard the education of its citizens as a luxury, but must instead regard education as indispensable to human Fulfillment. The same session of the General Assembly launched a “local option” kindergarten program for public school divisions in the State and started a pilot program to find preschool children with impaired hearing so they can get special help before entering school. Although Rappahannock does not presently have a kindergarten program, this legislation has set a precedent and, fri the yeart iheirffinior^school divisions are likely to add kindergarten programs if there is sufficient interest in the community. During the 1960’s, the Rappahannock County School Board and the County Board of Supervisors have made possible by budget appropriations, the i addition of several specialists to | the School Board staff who have been instrumental in determining instructional and problems related to student learning disability. Such diagnostic techniques have provided the information from which improvements in the Knitting Classes Classes in basic knitting have been taught for the past several years with Mrs. Mary Cleveriey of Flint Hill as instructor and the Arts and Crafts Groups and Homemakers Club of Flint Hill as sponsors. The twelfth class has just been completed, however due to the inclement weather only one subject attended all classes and received a certificate. Five classes are held for each course and Mrs. Virginia Biggs of Flint Hill attended all with work completed for a certificate. To date a total of 93 persons have taken advantage of the classes and 70 certificates have been awarded. Ten knitters have returned and completed the course for a second time. Many of these have continued to knit and become accomplished knitters. The cooperation of the Extension Agent, Home Economics, Miss Judy Burtner and the office secretary Miss Ruby Jenkins, combined with assistance from the Arts and Crafts group under the direction of Chairman Mrs. T. J. Pillar and the willingness and enthusiasm of those wishing to leam basic knitting, has made the instruction of Mrs. Cleveriey most successful. Rappahannock County Public School program can occur. Personnel positions which have been added to the Rappahannock County Public Schools during the 1960’s include that of Elementary Supervisor, Secondary Supervisor, Hearing and Speech Therapist, coordinator of Federal Programs, Home-School Coordinator (School Social Worker), and a number of special teaching positions. Perhaps, a far more reaching change occurred in the way Educators approach student teaching and learning during the 1960’s. Until the past decade, students were generally held accountable for what they learned or failed to leam. Research by Behaviorial Psychologists changed this concept and now “Teacher Accountability” for the progress of students is being emphasized in all Education Professional Conventions. This of course demands that teachers be aware of “how children leam” as well as “how they fail” in order that the latter can be prevented. Such education, based on the “change of behavior in students” promises to add the quality and sensitivity to the educational process that has sometimes been lacking, f The : decade. Ot!thedl960^ hffi fiassed and 19701s here, but the oundations that have been established, promise much for the education of children in the 1970’s. ms». •••*•. > - m mgasmas .-=• ass? msK Wooiville Socials By Nn.

Sam would like to hear from his friends and his address is: Airfield Company A, Hunter Army Airfield, Ga. 31409. Last Sunday my pastor preached from the second chapter of James, stressing the fact that in some churches the wealthy were shown more respect than the poor. Some remark he made in his sermon sent my thoughts back to my childhood and to an old song my mother sang. The theme was of an old man who had attended a model church and of the consideration he had been shown. I recall only one verse. “The usher did not sit me down Away back by the door, He knew that I was old and deaf, He saw that I was poor.” In my church we reserve most of the front pews for the old and deaf, we are a considerate congregation. It is remarkable how many of us have retained the faculty of hearing. In James 3:8 we find these words, “No human can tame the tongue, it is always ready to pour out its deadly poison.” Also in chapter 4:14 we find this statement, “You are just a mist, which manifests for a little while and then disappears.” That is a little in the line of Omar RubaiyatFor in and out, above, about, below, ‘Tis nothing but a magic shadow-show, Played in a box whose candle Is the sun, Round which we phantom figures come and go. Well, I will not accept that completely. I believe there is an ultimate reward for those who seek their God. I’ll leave the rest to Him.

Soc. Security Notes Many farmers who have domestic helpers in their homes do not realize that they should be reporting the employee’s cash wages for Social Security credit, Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, district manager of the Winchester social security office recently reported. “These wages must be reported if either of the following conditions is met: the farmer pays the employee at least $150 in cash wages during the year, or the employee works for the farmer for at least some part of 20 days during the year and is paid on a time basis”, she said. The current tax rate for both employer and employee Is 4.8 percent of the cash wages paid, or a total of 9.6 percent. The wage reports together with the social security taxes are to be reported to Internal Revenue Service by January 31st. Failure to make accurate and timely reports of wages paid to farm domestic workers can result in penalties and interest to the employer and loss of social security credit for the employee and her family. The Social Security office has a free booklet available to employers of farm domestic help that gives more detailed information on proper methods of reporting these wages. Write or Number 15.

Rowe, Virginia Commissioner of Agriculture and Commerce, today announced the establishment of a department policy adopted by the State Board of Agriculture on Desticides and their uses in Virginia. He said that in the annual evaluation of the department’s pesticide program, and because of ;he public interest and concern in ;he use and control of pesticides, i statement of policy by the Board was considered desirable. The department will, the! Commissioner said, exercise all] reasonable caution to assurei protection of the environment' and the food supplies in its own use of pesticides and in the administration of laws regulating the sale and use of pesticides in Virginia. The policy says that VDAC will: 1. Continue to review all pesticide registrations, eliminating all uses not in conformity with the policies on pesticides of USDA and HEW. 2. Maintain adequate surveillance of foods and feeds produced and sold in the state to assure a wholesome food and feed supply. 3. Cooperate with other state agencies which are concerned with pesticides*.- in the environment and expand department facilities as necessary to further accommodate the analytical testing requirements of these agencies. 4. Use non-persistent pesticides in VDAC pest control programs when an effective, nonresidual method of control is available.

Rt 522 By-Paaa Driving Licenses Require New Qualifications As Of January 1st When you renew your drivers license after January 1,1970, you will find new legislative requirements in effect. These measures were passed by the 1968 General Assembly to become effective January 1, 1970. In addition to fee changes for driver licenses, a re-examination plan for persons renewing their driving permits goes into effect. Certain age groups of drivers will be required to take at least a vision test. Persons in these same age groups, when their driving record shows more than one conviction resulting from improper operation of a motor vehicle during the four years prior to license expiration date, must also undergo a written test on the motor vehicle laws. Examinations may be required of drivers of all ages based on driving records which fall under previously existing laws. Also, if the examiner believes, as the result of observation, that a complete lamination should be given, he may do so. The requirement that persons personally appear to renew their driver’s license is a safety measure developed by your State legislature in 1968, and it is recognized that a computerized record in condensed form cannot “see” a motor vehicle operator. New driver license renewal applications being mailed out this month covering those licenses expiring in the month of January 1970 will tell each person what is pesticides and pesticide containers. Rowe said the department has the responsibility for regulating and controlling the sale of pesticides and for testing foods and feeds for residues. VDAC plans to strengthen its leadership role in this area by working with interested groups throughout the state. The challenge is to continually seek out those pesticides or other methods of control which can be used safely and which will allow the production of an abundant supply of high quality food, he concluded. required of him in the way of examination*. Additionally, the renewal application will aet up an appointment for your appearance at any examining station. Persons unable to appear on the appointment date may appear at any examining station at any other time during their birthday month in the year of renewal. A list of stations, locations, and business hours and days will be enclosed with the renewal application. It is essential that the application be accurately and legibly completed in the spaces applicable to the type of license desired. To speed services it is suggested that you do this before appearing at an examining station. In the event that a driver does not receive his renewal application in his birthday month, or in the month preceding when they are mailed out, information as to whether or not he has to take an examination, and what parts of the examination he must take, will be available at any examining station through the use of master information directories prepared currently for this purpose. Electronic data processing makes this possible. The directory is a print-out of stored information. The manner in which the statutory requirements resulting from the 1968 General Assembly must be implemented by the DMV requires persons of the following ages to have visual and possibly “rules of the road” checks. Drivers for renewal operator’s licenses of the ages 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, and all over 34 years; Drivers for renewal chauffeur’s licenses of the ages 30, 38, 42; and all over 42 years if the application is for the fourth renewal of the chauffeur’s license.

Visual standards are given in the “Manual for Driver License Applicants” available from all examining stations and the Division of Motor Vehicles in Richmond. For persons of the ages given, visual tests are required in all cases and written tests depending on the driving record. Persons may miss taking the tests on the basis that their renewal does not fall on the age list. Those persons not required to take any examination will find a notice on their application that photographing only is required. Otherwise, the application for renewal will state what parts of the examination the driver must take. However, all persons must appear at an examination station for the purpose of having their photograph taken.
