Newbill Miller while her home was opened for the annual Bromfield Parish House Tour. Mrs. Hurtt was glad to be home, she said, and wondered if she would ever find everything which had been shoved out of sight to create the proper atmosphere for the tour. Her home was enjoyed immensely by tour visitors according to the many comments heard. ' x In Benefits Annually An indication of how mucl money is being spent annually t< aid Rappahannock County’s wa veterans and their families may lx gleaned from the lates government figures. They show that expenditures ii the form of cash benefits anc services are at an all-time high locally and elsewhere. An estimated $135,000 it financial aid of various kind: went to needy local veterans and to the dependents of deceased veterans during the past fiscal year. The figure was derived from detailed data for the State ol Virginia, released by the Veterans Administration in its report foi the year. Among the benefits received, in addition to pensions and compensation, were hospital and health care, education and training, business and housing loans, insurance and others. The local expenditure for pensions and compensation alone, related to the veteran population of Rappahannock County, was equivalent to $322 per living veteran. IJHf & e* —mi fm ii hi i ii— m This was arrived at by dividing the total outlay by the number of local veterans, which the VA places at 420. Throughout the State of Virginia, which has a veteran population of 540,000, the amount so-spent was $173,958,000. A breakdown of the $135,000 in benefits going to those in the local area shows that approximately 62 percent of it was for pensions and compensation to living veterans and to the dependents of former veterans. Nationally, the ratio was 57 percent. According to the annual report, some $9.16 billion was spent in the United States in fiscal 1969 to provide benefits and facilities for the 27,300,000 living veterans and for the dependents of deceased veterans. With the number of them on the rise in all sections of the country, due to the war in Vietnam, Congress has been urged to step up the amount of assistance provided for them. Special actiop has been sought to aid newly discharged veterans Sheriff’s Dept.

A fire school has been completed In Rappahannock County with seven classes taking 120 hours for forty-two enrolled. Thirty-eight men received certificates; however, only 22 men from the six departments in Rappahannock attended. In addition to technical instruction, the school also strives to develop leadership and responsibility. Among those receiving ceftificttes weie family groups that included Frank Huff and son Frankie Huff of Flint Hill, both extremely active members of that department, and Braxton James of Amissville with sons Carl, left, and David, and at extreme right, L. H. LuttrclI. Jackson District representative to the Board of Supervisors. j A ^Uoring class for advanced seamstresses is being conducted Uider the auspices of the Extension Service with Miss Judy Btirtner, agent, in charge.

Bloodmobile to Visit Here November 9 The Red Cross Bloodmobile will make its semi-yearly visit to Rappahannock on Monday, November 9 stationed at Trinity Episcopal Church Parish Hall, Washington, Va. from 12 noon until 5:45 pjn. There is a continuing need for blood to meet the needs of ill Weekly Paycheck /Goes Farther Here How has the average , Rappahannock County family been making out in the nip and tuck race between rising incomes and rising living costs? To what extent have higher prices and bigger taxes eaten into I the income gains chalked up in the fast five years? The before and after figures show that although inflation has channeled off a considerable part of these gains, leaving some people with little to show for their increased earnings, the majority are better off than they were previously. The yardstick by which this is determined is purchasing power-now as compared with five years ago. As to how much the average Rappahannock County production worker can buy with the amount he earns in a day, some figures are available on the basis of data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Tax Foundation and others. They show that he now earns enough, after 24 minutes on the job, to buy a pound of smoked ham or a pound of frozen filet of haddock. To purchase two dozen eggs (grade A large) or two pounds of ground beef for hamburgers or a package of 96 tea bags takes approximately 41 minutes. They would have taken much longer in 1965. To buy a pair of child’s shoes, mediitm grade, or a woman’s wool skirt involves 266 minutes of work. The actual store prices of these and other good and services are considerably higher than they were in 1965 but, when they are related to work time, they cost less. The answer lies in the earning capacity of the average Rappahannock County family, which has risen in the past five years by 35 percent. By way of comparison, the cost of living has advanced 21.3 percent. Just how the working day of the average American is budgeted to take care of his various obligations is revealed in a study made by the Tax Foundation. It shows that taxes are the biggest Item. They take 2 hours and 43 minutes of his H-hour day. Next are food and tobacco, with 59 minutes, and housing, 57 minutes. The rest of the time goes to meet such other bills as transportation, 40 minutes, clothing, 25 minutes, medical, 21 minutes, recreation, 18 minutes and all others, 1 hour and 37 minutes. persons and traffic or other i accident victims. Able bodied citizens between the ages of 18 and 65 are urgently i requested to respond to this need, i If anyone in the county needs to have blood repaid, now is the time to make known the need, in the hope that friends and/or relatives will respond.

Marsh, Jr., has eceived the “Watchdog of the rreasury” Award of the National \ssociated Businessmen in ecognition of his jconomy-oriented House voting >n federal spending programs. It was the second time Marsh, a member of the House Appropriations Committee, had been honored by the organization, composed primarily of small businesses, which lists' among its objectives “fiscal responsibility in government and the elimination of* theFederal Government from competition with private business.” John C. Mason, President of National Associated Businessmen, presented the award. Tree Planting: Long Range Crop Everyone Harvests Planting a “crop” that takes from 30 to 50 years to harvest may tax the patience. But trees-the long-range crop referred to--can be one of the most important crops the American farmer can plant. H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee, points out that planting trees provides many benefits-both to the farmer and urbanite. And these benefits will become more important in the future as the population grows, and demand for wood and wood products increases. Besides the obvious benefits of tree planting-such as the production of lumber-trees help reduce flooding and erosion and help stabilize and improve water supplies. They also provide many intangible benefits such as beautiful scenery, recreational opportunities and improved wildlife habitat. “Tree planting even helps us fight pollution," Mr. Barksdale declared. He pointed out that nitrogen tends to move with water and that direct runoff from fields can cause nitrogen pollution of streams. However, if water is first diverted through jrass or woods, the nitrogen is jsed up before the water gets to the stream. Since tree planting and other such conservation practices lenefit everyone but return Farmers little or no immediate benefits, the Government, under the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP), shares with Farmers the cost of planting trees ind other soil, water, woodland, ind wildlife measures In addition to the planting of rees and shrubs where needed, ACP practices help eliminate jnwanted shrubs which rob the >oil of water and compete with letter quality vegetative cover. Despite this cooperation letween farmers and Government, much remains to be lone if we’re to meet the sxpected 80 percent increase in requirements for wood and wood products during the next 30 years.

Robinson Named to Agriculture Committee State Sen. Kenneth Robinson of Winchester met with Department of Agriculture officials to discuss the details of the Department’s Regional [Advisory committee’s operation. He was recently named as Virginia’s representative on the committee. The committee is composed of leaders in agriculture throughout the nation, who are assigned the job of providing “on-site” information on the problems and needs of the farmer. The program will allow future assessments of America’s agricultural status to be based on specific views and information from those who are involved. Robinson said he will begin next month to set up a state-wide committee to work with him in relaying information to the department. Clore Funeral Home “The Home of thoughtful Service” Culpeper, Va. Phone 825-2361'j Ambulance Service with Oxygen Today's Woman Judy Burtntr Extension Agent, Home Economics Food advertising has become a part of our lives through newspapers, magazines, radio, televison, and others. You are attracted to it by taste-tempting pictures, by the “promise” of the headline or by an interesting start to a commercial. There are at least seven ways that food advertising serves you. One is new product news. Food advertising brings you news of good things that you might not hear about otherwise. Perhaps an unusual vegetable you’ve seldom eaten or a coffee processed in a new way to keep more of the flavor. A television commercial may show a frozen dessert you’ve never tried. Food advertising brings you announcements of variations and improvements. Sometimes shoppers wonder why a favorite1 product is changed especially when they liked it just the way it was. In most cases, foods are changed to make them better, tastier or easier to use. Or perhaps to add texture, color or food value. Advertisements may tell you, for example, that a packaged instant pudding now comes in a larger or more convenient size or that a cracker is made from enriched flour. These could be facts that you will be glad to know about. Food advertising can help you serve your family meals that are not only delicious but which are also nutritious and well balanced. It does this by telling you which products have been enriched or fortified with vitamins and minerals or to which protein has been added. Advertising suggest various dishes that go together to satisfy both appetities and proper eating standards. Food advertising helps you keep out of menu ruts. By trying this-or-that and by following suggested recipe variations, you can convince your family that there are more things they like to eat than they would admit. For your choice of a table setting, the centerpiece, the platters and bowls you can use for serving, you can draw inspiration from pictures in ads. Food advertising adds to youi ease and speed and pleasure in food preparation. It may suggest A. shpjfU^tkf5UQb as A QQmpfcte dish that goes from the oven to the table. It passes on hints foi different menu combinations oi low cost meals. It gives you cook-ahead or convenient recipes, 1 SALE CONTINUES Featuring Living Room Furniture This Weekend LAMPSand TABLES Some As Much As 50% OFF fa fa LAY AWAY NOW FOR CHRISTMAS y A WHILE SELECTION * fa fa IS GOOD se 3 2-PIECE LIVING ROOM SUITES as low as 119.95 uPto 449.95 RECLINERS as low as $69.95 CTilKpC FURNITURE w ft COMPANY USE OUR FREE PARKING LOT and DRIVE-IN PATIO FRONT ROYAL, VIRGINIA tells you how to add zesty tasU to old favorites.

A low cholesterol, low salt or weight reducing program is easier to prepare if you know all you can concerning what’s in various foods. You learn about this when you read certain food advertising that carries such information. You may also find out what foods are fortified or enriched < with vitamins and minerals or offer special aids to dieters. . Library Lines \ Come! Come! Come!

Like a sudden flurry of snow flakes, they swirled around and then settled in the fence row along the Fodderstack Road. Know it hasn’t been cold enough to frost the flies off the cows’ backs yet but it’s about time to be thinking of spraying your cow herd for lice, before the cold weather settles in. If you spray by, early November an,d use, the' tight, material, yout co^ttpi have the additional luxury - of being relative free of cattle grubs for the winter. Call us for specific recommendations. Remember, DDT and some of the other pesticides are definitely out. One of my favorite veterinarians reminded me that every horse in Rappahannock County was exposed to bot flies last summer and at this time of the year most of the larvae are attached to the lining of the stomach. The attached larvae irritate the gastric mucosa resulting in digestive upsets. Adult flies disappear with the first killing frost. Horses should be treated for bots after the first killing frost and then again in another month. If only one treatment is used, wait a month after the first frost. This gives all the migrating larvae time to reach the stomach. This is also the time for the fall spraying of musk and curled thistles (when temperature will reach at least 60 degrees). And while we are on unpleasant subjects we have several copies of The Tax Reform Act of 1969 - Provisions of Significance to Farmers available in the office. Quality Counts at Apple Harvest Time Apple harvest time is underway n Virginia and pickers are now at ;he mid-way point of harvesting 131 million pounds of apples. Aa he harvest continues, at least 40 nspectors of the Division of Markets of the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Commerce are busy inspecting ind grading, and Inspecting at the jrocessing plants. Harvest of Red Delicious and Dolden Delicious is now' at its >eak in all areas of the state. In ;he next 15 days we will be in the uurvest of later varieties such as i Stayman, York, and Rome. J. H. Henley, supervisor of \pple6 and Peaches for VDAC, leads a team of 11 during the fear, but at apple harvest season his group is joined by other nspectors and graders from as far iway as California. ‘'Basically,'’ says Henley, “we ire working with grades established by the United States Department of Agriculture. In Virginia we have special grades hat are very similar to those of USDA, but they are strictly Virginia grades. “Contrary to most thinking, he grade of an apple has nothing jo do with its size. The grade is a juality factor. In grading we are ooking for imperfections, terhaps a little different color of he skin or something about the ipple that will make you suspicious. One thing we look for s internal cork. There is probably ust a little pimple or blemish on he skin that indicates this iroblem. Trained graders can prickly spot this imperfection.” Henley has been working in the ipple and peach section since L928 when he first joined the iepartment. He had originally pined the department with a summer time job, but stayed on because the work proved interesting and rewarding. “Time nas seen many changes in the orchards of Virginia,” Henley said. “We used to have about a hundred varieties of apples grown in Virginia, now we have about six or eight main varieties. Just 20 years ago apple trees were taller and everything was hand picked. Now new varieties are shorter and many apples for processing are shaken from the trees by mechanical devices. “Our work includes the inspection and certifying on Federal-State certificates at packing houses, warehouses and cold storages. Most of these packing houses. At processing plants certificates are written on each, load delivered. The inspection certificate is used as a basis for payment to the growers. “In our grading work we have as a top grade U. S. Extra Fancy which consists of apples of one variety which are mature, but not over ripe, carefully hand-picked, clean, fairly well formed, and free of blemishes and maintaining good color. “U. S. Fancy is much the same except for color. The next grade, U. S. No. 1, is much the same again except for the coloring. “We also grade combinations of these grades, but in this case at least 50 per cent of the apples in a lot must represent the higher grade.” As new varieties are being developed each year, as the apple industry continues to upgrade the quality of its product, it continually studies grading requirements. The USDA work: with industry in establishing neu grades. “We as apple graders an looking for many of the sami things that the consumer ii seeking at the grocery store Come In and See Us!

Vivid Autumn Colors Give Final Burst of Glamour to Landscape Blacksburg-The vivid colors of autumn leaves give a final burst of glamour to the landscape before the dormant season brings on the drab winter hues. Some of the finest autumn foliage displays are to be found in the Blue Ridge Mountain area, and the Northeastern United States. The higher elevations of the Western states also have highly colored leaves in autumn. The Central and Southern states usually do not enjoy much of this interesting phenomena. The development of fall foliage color is an inherited trait. Each tree or shrub species displays its particular color. But each individual plant has its own shade of that color, which is influenced by climatic and soil conditions. Just before the leaves drop in autumn, the nutrients they contain start to move back into the stems and roots. The green chlorophyll pigment is no longei produced, and that which is in the leaf, is destroyed by light. Most leaves contain yellow color which is hidden during the summer by the green pigment When the chlorophyll disappear: in the fall, the yellow color: SALE MTE CHANCE Due to circumstances beyond my control, it will be necessary for me to change the date of my auction sale.

If no yellow pigment is present, the leaves turn brown. The development of orange, red, and purple is not quite so easy. To secure these colors, the leaves must produce another pigment called anthocyanin. The particular shade of red, orange or purple which is developed by anthocyanin is related to the acid or alkaline condition of the sap of the plant. If the sap is acid the color will be orange or red. With neutral sap the pigment is light purple. When the sap is alkaline, a dark purple or blue color is evident. The amount of anthocyanic pigment produced is dependent on the accumulation of sugars and tannins. During warm sunny weather, much sugar is manufactured in the leaves. 5* " .«*r - *• When the autumn nights are cool, with temperatures below 45 degrees, the sugars and tannins do not move into the branches for storage. Thus, more remains in the leaves to be converted into anthocyanins, with the resulting vivid foliage color. If the weather during the fall is quite cloudy, sugar production is reduced. If the nights remain warm, the sugars will move to the Traffic Deaths for First Nine Months in Virginia Total 909 Virginia traffic daatha for the first nine months of 1970 numbered 909 to compare favorably with the 948 experienced during the same period of 1969, Colonel H. W. Burgess, Superintendent of State Police, announced today. He noted that reductions were obtained in January (98-84), May (116-98), June (132-100), July (117-109) and August (133-121). Increases were experienced in February (86-103), March (76-89), April (83-86) and September (109-119). The 103 of February represented an all time high for the month. During the period, traffic volumes were up about six percent. Pedestrian deaths numbered 163 as against 168 for the same Home From Tour Mrs. C. M. Ramey of Slate Mills has completed a 28-day tour of the United States and Canada and returned to her home. She joined an excursion promoted by the American Association of Retired Persons, Shenandoah Valley Chapter, which originated in Strasburg. The group traveled north to Canada, then west to Winnipeg, Lake Louise and the Canadian Rockies. Traveling south through Vancouver, British Columbia, they re-entered the States, visiting in Washington and Oregon. Continuing south to California, stops were made in San Francisco, Sacramento and the valley and Sequoia National Park. Extending the trip eastward, they went through Nevada and Utah where two nights were spent at Salt Lake City. Continuing east through Kansas and Missouri the excursion returned to Strasburg, and home. branches and foliage color usually will be quite dull. Thus, sunny days and cool nights cause brilliant autumn colors. Cloudy days and warm nights give drab fall foliage. Select some accent plants for your landscape that will provide interesting autumn colors. Trees which turn Ad include dogwood, red maple, sweet gum and red or scarlet oak. Shrubs with red fall foliage include viburnum, winged euonymus and b&berty. Trees which develop yellow fall colors are sugar and Norway maple, aspen, birch, tulip tree and hickory. The witch hazel shrub has yellow leaves in autumn. Among the vines which may be used in landscaping, bitter sweet has yellow leaves in the fall, whereas Boston ivy and Virginia creeper have shades of red.

I NEED YOUR HELP ££ My dear fellow Virginians. As you know, l am seeking re-election to the U. S. Senate as an independent candidate. Here is why I chose that unprecedented and difficult path. Last February 21, a small group obtained control of the Democratic State Central Committee and imposed a new oath on candidates running for the U. S. Senate. That new oath would have required me to pledge my support to whomever the Democratic National Convention might choose as its nominee for President in 1972. No one knows who the convention will select in 1972. No one knows what that man’s principles or policies will be. 1 could not sign such an oath, and 1 would not sign such an oath. The only oath that 1 am willing to fake is to the 4,600,000 fellow Virginians whom 1 represent. I have seen too much blind political partisanship in the government and in Congress. I submit this kind of partisanship is one reason that our country is in such deep trouble today. So it seemed logical to me that I should submit my record to all the people of Virginia as an independent. I realize full well that my course is a difficult and unprecedented one. But I welcome the opportunity to take my Senate record directly to all the people of Virginia. I am independent in my position, but I am completely dependent on the people of Virginia themselves in my fight for re-election. I need your help. Only with the help, support and activity of the individual citizen can we succeed on November 3rd. If we—you and I—are successful on November 3rd, the people of Virginia will make American political history.p Jl PAID POl iriCAl ADVERTISE MfN? Virginians for Byrd. George McMalh. Chairman.

The last of the sailing oystermen will compete October 31 in the sixth annual Chesapeake Appreciation Day Skipjack Race just north of Annapolis, Maryland, the National Geographic Society says. Their graceful V-bottomed vessels with clipperlike bows and “leg-o’-mutton” sails are the Nation's last commercial fleet to work under sail. Only about 40 have been licensed to dredge for oysters this year, and they will continue to dwindle. “Ever* year there's one or two of ’em taken up the creek to die.” sighed a wistful oldtimer. “Ain’t no more workin’ skipjacks bein' built. Last one was built in 1956. Won’t never be no more.” Even this vestigial fleet exists only because a Maryland law prohibits dredging under power on all but two days of the week. From November 1 to March 15 Baymen sail their boats to and from the oyster “rocks” or, il there is no wind, push them with small powerboats rigged astern. But they must hoist yawlboaU inboard when on the rocks and dredge by wind power alone except on Mondays and Tuesdays. The first skipjack appeared or the Bay sometime after the Civi! War, but her origin, like the meaning of her name, is obscure The vessel’s speed and hardiness were so apparent that she soor began to supersede such oldtimen as sloops, bugeyes, and centerboard schooners that had dredged for oysters since the early 1800’s.

The question is: How much are the taxpayers willing to pay to support today's oystermen, among them a few who like to sail?” The State of Maryland each year makes conditions favorable for spat—newborn oysters—by dumping 5,000,000 bushels of clean shell near the brood oysters. At the end of the season, the state employs the oystermen to dredge up the shells, which are then covered with little seed oysters, and move them to places in open water where they grow to maturity. Even with state help, it seems just a matter of time until modern technology replaces the few remaining oyster sailors. “No sir, if it comes to drudgin’ with power, I’ll go home and get on relief,” said a grizzled captain. “For sixty years now I’ve been drove hard and put away wet, and if it comes to that I’ll just set there and do neither thing in the world with the rest of ’em.” Some 18,000 people in two communities of Kenya were put within reach of markets, schools and health facilities after CARE gave $1,500 worth of materials to build a bridge that cut travel by 52 miles. fejJAWA'Ag Corn Blight Lowers Production U.S. corn production was forecast at 4,185 million bushels u of September 23-218 million bushels (5 percent) less than' forecast on September 1, and 635 million bushels (13 percent) less than the July 1 forecast. The current forecast is 393 million bushels (9 percent) less than last year. The decline in prospects from September 1 resulted largely from increased damage from Southern Corn Leaf Blight and other diseases. The current forecast is 12 percent below the record high 1967 output and would be the smallest crop since 1966. Indicated yield per acre on September 23 was 72.2 bushels, 3.7 bushels less than the September 1 forecast. The average yield per acre a year ago was a record 83.9 bushels. Blight was more serious in the Southern States east of the Mississippi River and in Southern portions of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.

Generally, corn was maturing faster than usual over much of the country on September 23. Heavy blight-infested fields appear much as they ordinarily look much later in the season. Dry weather in the Western corn belt in July and August hastened maturity. The blight also caused com to mature rapidly in much of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and in most of the Southern and Southeastern States. In most states many farmers were harvesting corn early to minimize harvesting losses and damage from blight and other diseases.

Immortalized in verse by lovers of beauty from the ancient Greeks to Wordsworth, even children’s nursery rhymes tell us, "Daffy-downdilly came into town, in a yellow petticoat and a green gown.” So, even the poetry of children reminds us that we need not live in the country to enjoy the golden trumpets of Spring. City dwellers, too, can bring into town the “yellow petticoats" of delightful, buttercolored blossoms, waving happily atop the “green gown" of gracefully curving stems. Regardless of where you plant daffodils—also called Narcissus, the botanical name, and referred to frequently as jonquils in the South—you must put the bulbs in the ground now, during Fall planting season, at least six weeks before the first killing frost. And you can be assured that when Spring arrives, your daffodils will give her a truly warm welcome, whether in your garden or windowbox. You may want to plant the large yellow trumpet variety, since it is perhaps the most familiar of all daffodils. As a matter of fact, to most people the trumpet variety is the daffodil, although there are 11 divisions and 18 subdivisions of the many-costumed daffodil. The trumpet’s major characteristics are one flower to a stem, with a long “trumpet” or “corona” extending outward from the blossom. There are, however, largecupped and small-cupped varieties in orange, snow-white and brilliant crimson scarlet, double-daffodils with two blossoms to a stem, and even those such as the Triandus Narcissus i with its lovely Thalia, featuring i up to four pure white flowers on a single, magnificent stem, i Daffodils clumped in rock garden settings look refreshing You may wish to experiment ivith varieties of Tanzetta Narcissus that can be grown on pebbles, the early-blooming March Sunshine of the Cyclanineus division, or one of the nany other choices available to i-ou now at your bulb dealer’s. In selecting your daffodil >u!bs, you will want to remem>er that unlike other bulbs, the laffodil may have more than jne flower inside. The ‘double-nosed’’ bulb actually las two flowers inside and is listinguished by two points on he top. The daffodil is robust enough o grow almost anywhere. Even n sand, since it has its own ood supply. But bulbs must eceive extra nutrient.1- if planted in sterile soils so that they can reproduce themselves for use the following year. Ideal soil for planting daffodils will be loose, well-drained, and crumbly to a depth of 6-8". A planting depth of 6-8" is recommended for large size bulbs, and about -1-6" for smaller species and miniature daffodils. As with all other Dutch bulbs, daffodils should be well-watered immediately after planting. Afterwards, all you need do is wait for Spring warmth to awaken your bulbs. Then you, too, will know why poets have so often selected daffodils as signifying Spring.

Many Americans Exploring Caves / Only a few highly trained men can explore outer space, but many Americans devote their , leisure time to exploring inner space-the estimated 50,000 caves ■ found in the United States. . Members of the 125 chapters of 1 the National Speleological > Society have probed some 15,000 ; of the caverns to date, and are I pushing their explorations » further. t Biologist Charles E.

Science Plus Pleasure Though he goes underground in search of rare blindfish and similar specimens, Mohr insists: “I do not endure the cramped miseries of playing mouse in a blacked-out Swiss cheese merely for the sake of science. I enjoy caving, along with thousands of others--teen-agers, housewives, businessmen.” All that’s necessary to become a spelunker, Mohr writes, is “a hard hat, dependable light, and good company.” Spelunkers-the word is derived from the Latin, spelunca, meaning cave-follow a cardinal rule: Never go underground alone. “They do not fear the collapse of a cave; the formations are remarkably stable,” Mohr says. “Dangers lie in human negligence and faulty equipment.” Spelunkers use nylon rope capable of holding up to one ton. Mohr recommends taking along a second rope, just in case. He also suggests packing a flashlight, candles, and waterproof matches to back up the carbide head lamp spelunkers wear. On his explorations, Mohr eats food concentrates and wears non-slip boots, clothing that won’t snag, and gloves. He also carries lightweight wire ladders, pitons, and mooring pins. Searches for Troglobionts Mohr is a specialized caver, whose journeys underground enable him to study the strange troglobionts, the often blind and colorless insects, salamanders, fish, and other specimens who live where there is little or no daylight. Novice spelunkers start with “tame” holes, the 200 or more public caverns from Anemone Cave at Acadia National Park, in Maine, to Lava Beds National Monument at Tulelake, California. At Mammoth Cave National Park, in Kentucky, they can ride boats on Echo River, 360 feet beneath the surface of the Earth. And in New Mexico’s vast Carlsbad Caverns, Park Service guides escort visitors on three-mile, underground hikes. Skilled spelunkers, however, prefer to worm, crawl, and climb through the mysterious blackness of less traveled caves in quest of what may lie beyond the next turn, at the bottom of the next pit, or just out of lantern reach. Mohr quotes Bill Vamedoe, who in 1961 was a co-discoverer of the 426-foot-deep Surprise Pit in Fem Cave, Alabama, on the lure of spelunking. Vamedoe, $ rocket engineer, says: “Most of us can only dream of going into orbit. But tomorrow any of us could be standing where no man has ever been before-in a new cave.” Perhaps some of the residents of Washington, Va. wondered whether or not Rappahannock was getting a railroad when this odd rig above arrived in town Tuesday evening. An inquiry of the tractor driver resulted in the following information: This is a dredge and it was being transported from Nashville, Tenn. to Sparrows Point, Baltimore to Bethlehem Steel. In all probability it will be used to widen or deepen the boat channel for better naivgation. This is only part of the outfit which will have huge pontoons added when it is put into the water. This part of it weighs 44,500 pounds. The reason for leaving the Route 211 by-pass and coming into town was a blowout on one of the 22 tires on the lowboy. The driver said this just wasn’t his day; he had been fined $525.75 at the Roanoke scales because he did not have his SCC authority with him. The rig stayed here overnight because a permit is required for an over sized operation of this kind and it is allowed to travel only in daylight.

Widows Benefit Law Under previous laws, once a widow remarried she was no longer entitled to Veterans Administration compensation or pension benefits, unless she obtained an acceptable legal mnulment. Public Law 91-376, approved August 12, 1970, provides some interesting changes in matters pertaining to widows entitlement ;o Veterans Administration >enefits. This section of Public Law 91-376 will become effective January 1, 1971. It simply states that if a widow terminates a relationship for conduct which resulted in a bar to Veteran: Administration benefits, she may once again become eligible tc receive benefits. If a widow has remarried, and tier Veterans Administration benefits have been terminated then she will once again become eligible for VA payments in the event her husband dies or if she i: divorced from him. Service Officers should keep in mind that this provision does not go intc effect until January 1,1971. A widow coming under thi: provision cannot receive by having been the legal wife oi more than one veteran, she wil be required to elect the benefit: she desires.

A combination of sweetgum, red oak, and various other hardwoods made up the remaining 18,300. During the past year, farmers and other individual landowners planted 22,813,861 tree seedlings on their lands — roughly 39 percent of the total. Of that number, 10,137,848 were provided free or on a matching basis by forest industry, of which the pulp and paper companies gave ten million. Industrail plantings on company lands added up to 33,868,514 seedlings (58 percent of the total), with pulp and paper companies accounting for 27,766,614, lumber and other wood-using industries being credited with 5,336,900, and non-forest industries making up the remaining 765,000. State, federal, and municipal or county agencies were responsible for planting 1,491,565 of the total — 474,500 in state forests, 229,010 by other state agencies, and 605,622 on federal lands. City and county governments planted 134,150 trees. Schools, civic clubs, and public organizations also planted 48,283. Using an average of 750 seedlings per acre, the 58.2 million planted this year represents the reforestation of approximately 77,500 acres of idle agricultural or cutover woodland. This acreage is boosted to a total of 80,596 with the inclusion of 3,096 acres which were reforested by direct seeding; that is, distribution of tree seeds over the land by hand, mechanical means, or by helicopter. The Virginia Division of Forestry was responsible for growing and distributing 39,582,266 seedlings. However, some 1,932,714 of these are not included in the total because of out-of-state planting or loss because of improper handling (freezing) by the purchasers. All Division of Forestry trees are grown at the state nurseries in New Kent and Augusta counties. The Continental Can Company nursery near Chester produced 14.6 million loblolly seedling; and the remaining 5,923,000 were obtained from the North Carolina Forest Service (5.5), the Bowaters Company nursery in Tennessee, TVA, the Chesapeake Corporation seed orchard, and private nurseries. The leading tree planting county was King and Queen with 3,416,378 to its credit. In second place again was Dinwiddie county with 2,964,200; followed y Buckingham with 2,813,600 (it had been first for the previous five consecutive years); Spotsylvania with 2,650,320; Brunswick, with 2,633,184; and Charlotte, with 2,628,850. Altogether there were 21 counties in Virginia in which more than one million trees were planted this year. Virginia Forests, Inc., is proud of the part it has played in encouraging tree planting in the Old Dominion, and is continuing its efforts along this line. It has now concluded the fourth year of its second “Plant More Trees” program, whose goal is to encourage the planting of 500 million tree seedlings by 1976. This would match in 10 years the accomplishments of the first 50 years of Virginia’s reforestation history. The program is ahead of schedule, for the total of the past four years now stands at 214,334,000. Medicare Changes First of Year Beginning in January, an older person who goes to the hospital under Medicare will be responsible for the first $60 of his hospital bill - now running about $750 for the average stay by a Medicare beneficiary. The present hospital deductible is $52 and will remain in effect for all Medicare hospital admissions during the remainder of the year. “The increase is mandatory under the law,” Robert M. Ball, Commissioner of Social Security, said. “It is a result of the long term upward trend in hospital costs, and in part, of course, the general inflation.” “The Administration,” he said, “has been working hard to bring inflation under control and has also been working with the professional health community, health insurance organizations and others so that the Medicare program and general consumers, too, will get full value for each health care dollar spent.” In announcing the new $60 deductible, Commissioner Bali explained that the law requires an annual review of hospital costs under Medicare and an adjustment of the portion of the bill for which a Medicare beneficiary is responsible, if these costs have risen substantially. The law provides a formula for determining the amount of any adjustment in the deductible amount. Based on 67 million days of hospitalization covered by Medicare bills in 1969, the current average per diem rate for inpatient hospital services amounted to $55.70 compared to a rate of $37.94 for the base year H.

Phone 635-2176 of 1966. Applying the formula, l.e., multiplying the ratio of the 1969 rate to the 1966 rate by $40, the result is $58.72, which must, under the law, be rounded to $60, the new deductible amount. The hospital deductible amount, Commissioner Ball explained, is intended to make the Medicare beneficiary responsible for expenses equivalent to the average cost of one day of hospital care. It is like the deductible amounts specified in many auto insurance policies where the car owner pays the first $50 or $100 on a repair bill, and the insurance policy covers the rest. Ball said that when the hospital deductible amount changes, the law requires comparable changes in the dollar amounts that a Medicare bepeficiary pays toward a hospital stay of more than 60 days, or a posthospital extended care stay of more than 20 days. When a Medicare beneficiary has a hospital stay of more than 60 days, he will pay $15 a day for the 61st through the 90th day, up from the present $13 per day. If he has a posthospital stay of over 20 days in an extended care facility, he will pay $7.50 per day toward the cost of the 21st day through the 100th day, up from the present $6.50 per day. If he needs to draw on his “lifetime reserve,” the reserve of hospital days a beneficiary can draw upon if he ever needs more than 9 . >f hospital care in the sanu enefit period, he will pay $3( for each day used, instead ol the present $26 per day. 4-H Report On Wednesday, October 14 there was a 4-H meeting at Rappahannock County Elementary School. We pledged to the American Flag and the 4-H Flag. We also sang the 4-H song and filled out 4-H youth cards. Then we watched as Miss Judy Burtner showed us how to measure liquids and sugar. She said if you can read directions out of a cookbook, you can cook. Sarah Massie, Reporter > BMOMOUNT HCTUHIS P I REN CAMPBEIi-KIM DARBY i . HAL WALUS'~~c~. CAROL lYNUY* m NIMH TWU (T1RUM• MM fc.
