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.
