The public is urged to $2,744,000 Spent Annually on Autos Rappahannock County residents who are planning automobile trips to various parts of the country, now that the vacation season is at hand, will find that travel costs are higher than ever this year. Inflation has had its effect on the prices of overnight accommodations, food, gas and almost every other item of daily need. According to the latest figures from the American Automobile Association, local travelers will have to spend about 16 percent more per day than they did two years ago. What it amounts to, for two persons traveling together, is an additional $6.50 a day. The total needed for essentials, per Rappahannock County couple, on the basis of the AAA findings, is now $46 a day. This compares with the $39.50 that was considered adequate in 1969. This assumes that they will average 300 miles a day and get 14 miles to the gallon of gas. The $46 is budgeted as follows: meals and snacks, $16, which is $2 more than in 1969, lodging, $17, an increase of $3, gas and oil, $9, up 50 cents, and tips and miscellaneous items, $4, or $1 more than before. How much a couple may spend over and above these amounts-for amusements, recreation, souvenirs and other purchaseswill depend upon their means and their desires. While considering travel costs, the question that also arises, for Rappahannock County car owners, is the more fundamental one of how much it is costing them per year to own and operate their cars. Here, again, the AAA has come up with the current figures. It finds that it costs an average of $1,550, or 15.5 cents a mile, to own and drive a late-model standard sedan in the medium price range at the rate of 10,000 miles a year. This includes $425 for gas, oil and maintenance, and $1,125 for insurance, depreciation, licensing and registration. To own and operate the 1,770 cars registered in Rappahannock County, local residents are spending an estimated $2,744,000 a year. The record amount of car travel in the area has been a boon to local service stations, whose annual receipts have reached $389,000."

Edward Franklin Frazier of Flint Hill operating a 1963 International farm tractor owned by Roland Welch of Flint Hill was struck by a 1970 Plymouth operated by Haywood Lee Turner of Washington, Va. According to Trooper Bun tin, the tractor was being driven on the highway without lights. Turner was meeting another vehicle and was unable to see the tractor and stop in time to avoid striking it. Damage estimated at $500 was incurred to the auto. Mrs. Turner, a passenger with her husband, was taken to Warren Memorial Hospital, Front Royal by Flint Hill Rescue Squad where she was treated for a minor leg injury and released. Frazier was charged with reckless driving. Two traffic crashes occurred Sunday afternoon on local highways, one involving a motorcycle. They were investigated by Trooper J. B. Willis. At noon on Route 211 a half mile east of Washington at the by-pass exit a 1971 Plymouth operated by Barbara Henrietta Cotton of Baltimore, Md. crashed into a stop sign and flipped bottom upwards. The driver apparently attempted to make a right turn at a high rate of speed and struck the island and sign. She and her two children received bruises. At 3 p.m. the same day four miles west of Sperryvillfe on Route 211 a motorcycle rounded a curve, skidded across the road and struck an on coming car. Maye E.

All are welcome.” Jfirpia Afield (/ U QoJpi Delaware and Virginia In a talk before the MasonDixon Outdoor Writers Association, Joseph H. Manning, Maryland Fish and Wildlife Administration Director, pointed out that Delaware and Virginia are the only two states on the Atlantic Coast not considering a salt water fishing license.

Under the supervision of Postmaster Blount the postal service is being reorganized to offer better service to patrons, among whom are Mrs. Carroll Quaintance and Mrs. Perle Coffey at the Sperryville facility with Roy Reeve as Postmaster. The office has been decorated in posters and over-size stamps and this morning refreshments will be served postal patrons by Carol Taylor, Susan Taylor and Bridgett Brown, children of postal employees. _ current efforts of his own department to secure such a license in Maryland, a top salt water fishing state. I do not know what the situation is in Delaware, but here in the Old Dominion our Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries has no jurisdiction over salt water fishing. This obstacle would have to be hurdled, before consideratioin could be given to such a move. Apparently the Mayland move has been prompted by a need for more funds to operate Manning’s department. Having lived in Maryland for a few years back in the early 50’s, I know that alarge percentage; of Maryland hnglers limit their fishing to salt water. Manning’s proposal would even include crabbing, a popular pastime during the summer months. Many of the outdoor writers objected vehemently to the proposal, particularly those from outside of the state. Some suggested that a salt water fishing license could be better handled by the federal government. They felt state jurisdiction would complicate enforcement problems and invite, “border conflicts” such as once existed between commercial fishermen on the Chesapeake Bay and Maryland enforcement officers. With other states moving in this direction, perhaps the time is ripe for Old Dominion salt water anglers to give some thought to the matter. NOW OPEN Ben Venue Garage W. R.

The Director of the Highway Safety Division of Virginia, John Hanna, today issued a statement concerning the state’s loss. He said, “Two hundred fifty of these victims were killed by virtue of excessive drinking while driving. Seventy percent of the crashes involving these persons occurred because of speeding, running red lights or disregarding stop signs.” Hanna added, “We’re all out here together; we must become concerned.” Although the fatality toll has passed the 500 mark for the year, the trend in recent weeks has reflected a reduction over the toll of 1970. In some instances the death toll tas been from 12 to 15 behind the count for the same date last year. “We must reduce this total,” said Hanna, “ said Hanna, “let us help each other to do so by driving carefully.” Isaac R.

Material For Flower Arranging Available Most Of The Time BLACKSBURG-Virginia’s supply of living material for flower arrangements at almost every time of the year is just one of the many reasons it is nice to live in the Old Dominion, homemakers insist. Nevertheless, they agree, there are times when a dry arrangement is a very useful standby. “Dry flowers were never meant to take the place of fresh flowers or foliage. But, because they can be , dpjed , at one’s leisure and Jto* RblX-ftteb Jthey arp , uiey can save a lot of embarrassment and time,” noted Miss Katherine Habel, assistant professor of clothing, textiles and related arts in the College of Home Economics at Virginia Tech. Miss Habel, also an extension specialist in home furnishings, ventured, “In most homes there is always a place where a permanent arrangement of dry materials can stand when fresh flowers are unavailable for one reason or another. “These arrangements need not be dull,” Miss Habel encouraged homemakers. “Unlike those of a few years ago, when most dry arrangements were of dried ferns and seed heads, today’s arrangements are composed of dried summer flowers with colors as brilliant as the day they came out of the garden,” she said. “Flower colors can be preserved by hanging them upsfde down in a dry, dark closet,” Miss Habel said. “But, that is just one of several methods of perserving flowers. “The upside down method suits many of the spiky summer flowers. They should be gathered shortly before they reach full bloom. Then in small bunches, they should then be hung upside down in a dark, dry, warm closet or room,” explained the extension specialist. “This method leaves the flowers slightly shrivelled, but otherwise dry. Darkness prevents the colors from fading. And it suits most seed heads and sprays such as clock, and such summer flowers as delphinium, larkspur and golden rod. “Homemakers might want to try to dry other flowers by the upside down method, although very soft-stemmed flowers often fail,” cautioned the extension home economist. ,. “Many open-faced flowers, suclf !asJ”, Emma's',' ‘ ^maiTjtrtsfit&s^, marigolds and others, preserve well when they are completely covered with powdered borax,” Miss Habel noted. “The flowers do even better when they are buried in a powder called silica gel. The powder dries the flowers quicker, and the colors and shapes of the buried flowers emerge almost lifelike,” she said. Miss Habel explained, “To use borax or silica gel, cover the bottom of a suitably sized box with a layer of the powder. Then stand or lay the flowers on the powder and pour more of it over and around the flowers. The petals should be lifted now and again to permit the powder to flow under, over and between them so they will retain their shape.” Miss Habel explained further, “Drying flowers with borax will take about three weeks. Only three days are required for flowers dried in silica gel. And, since the gel remains dry, it can be easily shaken, off and reused.” Glycerine and water method, as described by Miss Habel is used to preserve leaves on woody-steemed branches. The leaves need to be washed and trimmed. The stem ends are split. The material is left standing in at least three inches of a solution of two parts hot water and one part glycerine. The specimens are left until all the solution is absorbed in AMISSV1LLE RURITAN CLUB ANNUAL Saturday, July 3,1971 , SERVED 5 TO 9 P.M. 1 Amissville Carnival Grounds 1 $3.00 for Adults $1.50 children under 12 All You Can Eat AmissviHe Homemakers To Meet Monday The Amissville Homemakers Ulub will see a demonstration at heir July meeting on plan and :ook-ahead meals. Mrs. Mason Hitt will be the program leader at the meeting which is scheduled for Monday night, July 5, at 7:30 p.m. Members and visitors are invited to attend. about two or three weeks. Miss Habel said, “Ferns and other flat-surfaced leaves can be preserved by pressing, such as a leaf placed between the pages of a book, or between thick layers of newspapers. Although leaves so treated will remain flat, there are some interesting lines and shapes which can be retained. The leaves will emerge brittle and not pliable as when the glycerine method is used. “While using the pressure method to dry flowers, newspapers should be plentiful for their ability to absorb moisture. Weights can be used on top of the heap to help provide ever pressure,” Miss Habel advised “flow is the time to be alert for all kinds of seed heads and other materials which will make interesting lines. And, while gathering cones, pods, nuts, fruits and gourds for focal interest in home-dried displays, do not overlook the versatility of grains and grasses,” counseled Miss Habel. Concluded Miss Habel, “Half the fun in drying flowers is that of experimenting for personal satisfaction. Dried acorns, strung together, can look like a bunch of brown grapes. Fungi can be dried, Ivy roots can be stripped of their bark, bleached and polished. Rosettes can be made of pine cones. There is literally no end to what imagination can do.” Fireworks Warning Issued Celebrants The Fourth of July is drawing near. The fireworks stands are popping up like mushrooms around the state. The children are feasting their eyes on the various kinds of fireworks that are available for the big day: firecrackers, sparklers, Roman candles, small rockets and even fountains! Some of these fireworks make loud booming noises, others soft sprays of color and still others, amazing wheels of rainbow fire. Celebration is in the air and forgotten, for now, is the looming tragedy that is wrapped up in each pretty box of fireworks. Every year hundreds of persons - many of them children - will be injured by fireworks. The Virginia Society for the Prevention of Blindness urges you to stay away from amateur backyard displays. Instead, leave the fireworks displays in the hands of the professionals and attend a locallysupervised public display where you and your family can enjoy fireworks in safety. If a public display is not available in your community, don’t despair or return to the old backyard do-it-yourself display. Instead, gather your friends and neighbors together and ring out your celebration message with bells. Why not remember your celebration as a musical sound rather than an explosive noise that could blind forever? Card Of Thank* The family of the late Garfield Burke wishes to express its heartfelt thanks and appreciation to all friends and relatives for their many acts of kindness during his illness and in our bereavement. We are deeply grateful. (iteest Jfuneral JJarfors H. C.

It seems that Faustus became bored with his life as a scholar and wanted to get into the big-time. Well, it seemed that the only way he could do this was to sell his soul to Lucifer, which he did. After several years of sensual pleasure, which to my way of thinking, was mostly illusion, he was called on to pay his debt. Is there an actual hell? I have heard of some sinners screaming as they died, already being tormented by fire. Some joke about it; they expect to meet a lot of former friends there. I think it was Yukon Jake who thought hell was a pretty good place till someone opened a door and a cold draft hit him. Some think it is so over populated there is little to dc except have a good time. I think ] had rather loaf somewhere besides hell. What is hell? The grave, hades, sheol, eternal punishment, fire and brimstone, separation from God? The ancients sought an answer. They reasoned that if there is a god of rewards there should be a god of punishments. The ancient Hebrews adopted this as part of their religion, calling their beneficient God Yahweh, ruler of the heavens. In some writings their god of evil was Lucifer the fallen angel, god of the nether regions. One writer of the scriptures seemed to think that the punishment, or reward, should be commensurate to the deed, so he says; “As the stars differ in glory, so shall be the resurrection of the j dead.” This seems to confirm the doctrine of reincarnation, to which I heartily subscribe. Jesus said that we will reap what we sow. If TOLSON’S TILE Over 16 years experience in! Ceramic Tile & Quarry Slatej New construction, remodeling? ! or repairs. Free estimates. Amissville, Va. 937-4598 , we sow the seeds of discord we will reap a life where we will be completely out of harmony with our environment. If we sow the seed of sensuousness we might reap a life of unappeasable appetites, or maybe, none at all; doomed to a life of boredom and frustrations. Do we have ‘hell on earth’ here and now? I would answer in the affirmative. I know I’ve had my share, conversely thank God, I’ve some heaven too. But that is another story. And after all; “If your reach does not exceed your grasp, what is (an ultimate) heaven for”? VA Benefits Certain Nurs’ Home Patients It is often brought to our attention that veterans and widows drawing VA pensions who are residing in nursing homes are not aware that increased pension may be their’s for the asking. The Aid and Attendance allowance for both groups of these recipients will be forthcoming if application is made to VA and supported by evidence that the pensioners are in need of help of other people in their daily living. Change of address from residence to a nursing home will not suffice as an application, but a request for the increased benefits by the recipient, if capable, or guardian if not, will initiate an informal claim and establish a retroactive date for the increased award. Aid and Attendance benefits for veterans under the new law will be $110.00 additioinal to their monthly pension. Those under the old pension law will be increased to a $125.00 monthly rate. Widows will realize $55.00 more per month over their pension awards. Edwin L. Pomeroy, of the Front Royal Office of the Division of War Veterans’ Claims, is in Washington at the Clerk’s Office on 1st and 3rd Monday from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. and will gladly give more details on this subject or any other matter connected with veteran’s affairs. Social Security Notes Are you getting ready to retire? Hazel F. Crumpton, social security manager in Winchester, has some tips that may help save you time and trouble when you apply for your social security benefits. A telephone call to the social security office is a good first step. The office can answer your questions and tell you how to apply and when to do it. Often, your claim can be taken by telephone and sent to you for signature. When you apply bring your social security card or a record ol your social security number, proof of your age, and your last year’s income tax withholding statement. (If you are self employed, bring a copy of Iasi year’s income tax return anc evidence of payment of the self employment tax.) If your wife also is applying foi benefits, she should bring evidence of her age and her socia security card or a record of hei number if she has one. The best evidence of your age is a birth or baptismal certificate made within 5 years of your birth. However, if these are not available, other documents may be used. Generally, the older the document the better. If you have children under 18-or youngsters between 18 and 22 who are full-time students-bring their birth certificates and records of their social security numbers. It’s generally a good idea to apply about 3 months before you retire. Don’t delay because you don’t have any of the required documents or information. The people in the social security office will be glad to help you get the necessary information. Remember, if you are housebound or unable to come to the office for some other reason, arrangements can be made for taking your application by telephone or, if necessary, someone can come to your home. Just let the social security office know. “Remember,” Mrs. Crumpton concluded, “the people in the social security office are there to help you. Our telephone number is 667-1511.” □□□□□□ WE HELP YOU .

"REAP” Aids Farm Forestry Practice So far this year 5 farmers in Rappahannock County have received approval for forestry practices under the Rural Environmental Assistance Program (REAP). “On the average, in a year’s time our County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee approves cost-sharing for establishing or improving about 100 acres of woodland,” said H. S. Barksdale, ASC Committee Chairman. This year we hope to increase the acreage. The need for wood products is growing at a rapid pace. Properly established and maintained, farm woodland acres add to the production of lumber and pulpwood and at the same time help improve ecological balance and improve the total environment. Secretary of Agriculture Clif ford M. Hardin recently took public note of the REAP costsharing practices for small tracts of woodland. Tree farmers and other individual woodlands owners may find it well worthwhile to participate in the new Rural Environmental Assistance Program, which gives high priority to improve forestry practices. Some of the cost-sharing features of REAP are designed to foster reforestation ahd better management practices while improving the visible attractiveness of wooded areas. The Secretary of Agriculture, speaking before the American Paper Institute pointed out that “at present levels of timber management and production, thd growth in demand expected during the coming decade seems certain to stimulate significant increases in timber prices.” He also said, “Over the long run the nation will have to rely more on private timber ownership to meet the greater requirements of the future. Formerly, when needs could be seen increasing, the forest industry could expand the harvest on private lands. But this source of supply has been reduced as a result of past cuttings. We must not delay in the developmenl of privately owned forest.

East St. Culpeper, Va. 825-1755 Gypsy Moth-Invader From the North Chief Forest Wsrden Clifton Jenkins inspecting s Gypsy Moth trap in Old Hollow. The trap is coated on the inside with a sticky substance and baited with an attractant named Gyplure. Within the next two or three years, Virginia’s number one forest pest could well be the Gypsy Moth -- an apparently harmless insect whose caterpillar stage has an unsatiable appetite. 1 Unlike many insects that limit their feeding to certain plant species, the Gypsy Moth eats most types of vegetation. It is particularly injurous to broad-leaved trees; but pines are by no means immune from attack. A single defoliation will kill our forest evergreens (pines, spruces, hemlock, etc.). Hardwoods, on the other hand, can tolerate two or three years of successive defoliation before dying. This pest was introduced into Medford, Massachusetts in 1869 and has since moved progressively southward in the New England and Mid-Atlantic states. The wind is its primary means of distribution for short distances (up to 20 miles has been recorded). More important, however, is its effectiveness as a hitchhiker on cars, trucks, campers, trailers, etc. By laying an egg mass on an inconspicuous spot (such as the inside of a car bumper), the female moth assures a dispersal of several hundred miles. If you are planning a trip to the Northeast this summer (June, July, August, or September), please inspect your vehicle carefully before and after returning. You might mention this problem to others you encounter - for although both State and Federal inspectors are checking vehicles, they have an impossible task. The egg masses are the most commonly transported stage (each containing about 600 eggs). These egg masses are tan colored, one to two inches long, one-half inch wide, and covered with light tan colored hairs. Cocoons, caterpillars, or adults might also be transported by an unsuspecting traveler. The cocoons are about one inch long, purplish-brown, and can be found anywhere. Any egg masses or cocoons should be placed in a small jar containing rubbing alcohol and HEADQUARTERS for Orchard Chemicals We maintain complete Inventories and will deliver to your farm.
