By MARY JAMIESON YOU CAN SEE, hear, talk with the famous conservative columnist and commentator, James J. Kilpatrick, Monday evening at 8 p.m., November 13, at the Rappahannock Library in Washington. Of course, his subject will be “The Election.” Jack Kilpatrick, 20-years editor in chief of the Richmond News Leader, now calls Rappahannock County his home base, from which he sends out his syndicated column to 260 great and small newspapers across the United States. He is not only a favorite neighbor of many who live in the Sperryville-Woodville area of our county, he is a favorite commentator of all of Rappahannock and adjacent counties. Currently we see Kilpatrick on CBS’s “60 minutes” program, CBS radio and TV show, “Spectrum” on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” and WTOP’s 6 o’clock evening news. THE RAPPAHANNOCK Library rejoices in being able, through Mr. Kilpatrick’s generosity, to offer admission-free to our county and neighbors a vastly interesting and timely evening of comment and discussion on the election. James J. Kilpatrick’s record of having attended all but two of the Republican and,Democratic conventions since 1948 means thaCjye shall have a rare face-to-face treat of political sophistication and knowledge. The Rappahannock Library invites everyone to the November 13 meeting. Coffee will be served at 7:30 p.m. □

Many of these nuggets of “conventional wisdom” that especially amaze us deal with Bigness. In contemporary America, we hear from so many sides, if it’s Big enough — a business, a town, a government, a school — then it’ll be good. Well, you can believe that if you want to, but we don’t. And some supporting evidence is on hand that in one category of particular interest to Rappahannock and rural Virginia in general — agriculture — we may be on the right track. Last Spring, Sen. Gaylord Nelson’s Committee on Monopoly held hearings on Big Agriculture, examining the policies and actions of the U. S. Department of Agriculture and the food “industry” who would have everyone believe that bigger farms mean cheaper foods, that bigger supermarket chains mean better and cheaper food. AN IMPRESSIVE lineup of experts in the field testified to the contrary — that instead of being an automatic “good,” policies which foster Big Agriculture might, instead, be ruining the nation. And not only the land and the people who live on the land, but towns and cities as well. Prof. Philip Raup of the University of Minnesota’s Department of Agriculture and Applied Economics presented statistics refuting “the myth that a bigger farm means cheaper food.” A traditional, two-man family farm can produce food more efficiently and at less cost, he maintained. Dr. Walter Goldschmidt told of studies in California that showed that family farms “produced a better community life” than gigantic, corporate farm operations. One especially interesting note: The small farm community supported almost twice the number of separate business establishments as the large-farm community. In addition, small farms provided the basis “for a much richer community life — schools were more plentiful, as were parks and civic groups, newspapers and churches,” &c. CHANGES IN THE NATION’S tax structure to give small farmers the competitive edge they need were recommended, along with protective measures to help individual family farms resist take-overs by conglomerates or large non-agriculturallybased enterprises. Ed Wimmer of the National Federation of Independent Businesses provided a final note at the hearings: “For every six farmers who leave the land, a small business turns out its lights.” Bigness as the answer to everything? No thank you,^ and it strikes us that Rappahannock County — regarded as “small” in all those statistical bulletins the bureaucrats are always cranking out — is living proof of the false premise of Bigness. □ Barns The barn pictured last week was that on the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Roland Welch located on Route 522 south of Flint Hill.

Letters to the editor Highway Department praised Editor: The following letter has been sent to Mr. James Skeens, our Resident Highway Engineer: Our local papers are filled with “letters to the Deer too coddled Editor: Mr. Hanna’s figures were hardly inspirational. They were as startling to me as your discovery of the imaginary Mack truck was to you. Max Ailor’s column in the Richmond Times-Dispatch (10/22/72) states in part: the 1972-73 predicted Deer supporter is heard from Editor: I was rather shocked by Ms. DeBergh’s letter in the 10/26 issue of your paper. It is rare that I encounter a person who favors the deliberate destruction of wildlife. If Ms. DeBergh is upset with the damage done by deer (most of which is caused by man’s invasion of their natural environment) I can’t help but wonder what her plans are for the most destructive creature on earth.. .MAN Pro Deer Garry L. Richardson Front Royal editor” regarding road construction and maintenance. This is to express my personal feelings to you and your staff, Mr. Doug deer harvest is 43,000; the 1971-72 deer harvest was 42,369 (possibly giving Virginia two consecutive record deer harvests). The 1967 deer harvest was 24,934. This five year increase in the deer harvest is tremendous. If these same figures can be used to reflect the Virginia deer population, I believe the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries has been too successful in re-establishing deer. Joyce R. De Bergh Washington Bywater, superintendent; Mr. Dodson, assisting foreman, and his most capable crew, for the outstanding job on the recently completed section of Route 611, two miles west of Amissville. Your men were courteous, thoughtful and adept at their work. Every effort was madef to co-operate with landowners. Much thought was given to the preservation of trees and rights-of-way. Their finish work was carefully planned for land contour and convenience to each owner. Your men deserve high congratulations on the quality of construction as well as manner of consideration of owners and property. I offer a genuine “thank you” to each. H.C. (Bill) Bailey Amissville Games with a picture Editor: The picture in last Thursday’s paper of the wet snow on the foliage of an evergreen was superb. If one had not read the caption under it you could see a lot of different things in that0scene. Was it an abstract painting or the surface of the moon? Or perhaps a summit meeting of lots of animals, even pre-historic ones; a formation of rocks through the ages or ghosts and goblins on Halloween; Heaven forbid but maybe a lot of trash just dumped down a mountainside? I spent quite a while turning it upsidedown and around finding more interesting things each time. Look at it again — See what you don’t see!! Great fun. The hunt scene was beautiful too.

Senior citizens, wffb have fond memories of the fine flavor of roasted chestnuts, continue to ask about the production of this nut crop. The younger gardeners have no such memories and therefore have little interest in this plant. The American Sweet chestnut was once a very important tree species in the eastern United States. The nuts were highly prized because they were richer and sweeter in flavor than those of most other chestnuts. The large stately trees were outstanding in the forest and produced high grade lumber. Disaster struck in the early 1900’s when the chestnut blight became prevalent. This fungus disease soon killed all of these fine trees. Gleaming, barkless trunks with leafless branches persisted as skeletons in the forests for many years. There is uo practical way to spray chestnut trees to control this disease. The chestnut blight is quite unique in that it does not attack young trees. As long as the bark remains smooth the fungus does not become established. The young sprouts which develop around the old stumps, and trees which grow from nuts, usually survive until the bark becomes rough and a few nuts are produced. Chestnut trees are still found occasionally as sprouts around old stumps or as seedlings which grew from the few nuts a young tree produced before it died from the blight. People who find trees hope they have discovered a resistant plant which might help reestablish this desirable nut species. Unfortunately none of these sprouts or trees have been able to tolerate the disease. No native chestnuts have yet been discovered which have deiliillllllllllllllllllllllllltlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll veloped immunity to the blight. The Chinese chestnut is very resistant to the blight and may be planted as a substitute for the native species. The nuts have acceptable quality, although they are not as sweet as those of the American chestnut. The native chestnut can be budded or grafted on Chinese chestnut and will grow rather well for a number of years. Incompatibility ultimately develops however, and the grafted portion is reduced in growth rate and usually dies. Even if the operation was successful, the native chestnut portion of the tree would develop blight as soon as it became large enough to have rough bark. Thus budding or grafting is not an effective method of saving the native chestnut species. The unique flavor of chestnuts is due to their starch content which gi ves a sweet taste wnen roasted. Most other nuts, like walnut and pecan, have a high oil content which imparts a very different quality to the edible product. Most consumers prefer the flavor of oily rather than starchy nuts. The U. S. Department of Agriculture has for many years, conducted breeding work in an attempt to develop resistant chestnuts. Considerable progress has been made, and several desirable selections of the Chinese type are now available. It is doubtful that a scommercial chestnut industry will ever be developed in this country, but the Chinese selections are very desirable and productive for home production. □ VILLAGE SHOP Main St. - Flint Hill WILL BE CLOSED Until Tuesday, November 28 Farm Bureau elects THE ANNUAL membership meeting of the Rappahannock County Farm Bureau was held at Washington, Va. on October 24.

Apples, especially Virginia’s are healthful Another in a series on home horticulture by Wesley P. Judkins, Virginia Tech Extension horticulturist AS WE enjoy delicious apples and apple products this fall and winter, it may be of interest to consider the origin and history of this most important fruit. With the possible exception of the grape, apples are probably more widely grown in more places in the world than any other fruit crop. Apples have been a favorite fruit of man since the earliest prehistoric ti mes. Wherever the Garden of Eden exis ted, the apple was probably born close by. The mountainous area south of the Caspian and Black Seas seems to have been where the apple originated . It also seems that the Garden of Eden, actual or legendary, may .have been in this part of Asia. Apples occupied such an important place inthelives of the early Greeks and Romans, that stories of them are found in their literature and mythology. Dried apples and apple seeds have been found in the ruins of villages of the prehistoric Swiss lake dwellers. The earliest settlers in America brought apple seeds and small trees. Small orchards were an important part of the diversified farms in most of the eastern and central states. Many landowners, such as George Washington, insisted that their tenants plant and maintain apple orchards. Until relatively recent times, one of the principal uses of apples was as juice or cider. The fermented juice in particular was a popular and easy secured beverage. It could be stored for use during the en Many things must be considered and many people are involved when a house is moved across a highway.

Livestock prices Prices on feeder cattle and calves at Southeast markets bounced back during the week ended October 27 to recover most of the previous week’s sharp loss USDA’s Agricultural Marketing Service reports. Factors which influenced this turnabout in price movement included less abundant supplies, with the previous week’s volume nationwide the largest of the year to date. Also, the trucking situation in the Southeast was not quite so acute as during the week before, but truck availability still posed a problem from time to time. Further, reports were received of improved winter wheat grazing prospects in the Southwest with soil moisture conditions bettered in that area. Contrary to the direction of movement of feeder cattle prices — at least in the Southeast — steer and heifer beef sold lower for the week in the Midwest carlot trade, The decline in beef prices forced at least some price loss on slaughter steers and heifers. In the Southeast, compared to one week earlier, feeder calves sold mainly $1 higher with some sales up $2. Feeder steers and heifers were 50 cents to $1 higher. Slaughter cows sold steady to 50 cents higher. tire year, whereas fresh apples would keep for only a relatively few months in the average farm cellar. THE MEN who came from England to settle in Virginia drank very little water. Those of social standing had been accustomed to wine, and the working class to beer. Cider was made in large quantities because European grapes could not be grown satisfactorily in the eastern U. S., and wild grapes produced poor wine. The yield of orchards was commonly cited in barrels of cider. The virtues of apple cider were extolled in many books and treatises. It was promoted as the ideal food suited to a tired condition. Many writers stressed the superiority of cider over grape wine or stronger beverages.

Norton, Va., needs help from state’s voters NORTON City manager Milas Franks said he believes an amendment to the Virginia Constitution which will permit Norton to retain its city status will pass when voted on by Virginia voters in the coming election. The statewide referendum came about when it was discovered those rewriting the state constitution several years ago had erred and did not take into consideration a city that might fall below the 5,000 population. There was only one way to correct the mistake and thus the General Assembly passed a bill this year calling for the state wide vote. Franks said the Norton City Council is “concerned but optimistic” about the possibility of the amendment’s adoption. The amendment, which does not mention Norton specifically , appears on the November election ballot along with one other proposed constitutional amendment, one calling for the lowering of the voting age from 21 to 18. The amendment will appear on the ballot like this: “Shall the Constitution be amended to include in the definition of “city” any incorporated community which became a city as provided by law before noon on July 1, 1971?” “FROM THE standpoint of the citizen it would be hard to describe what would happen if the amendment failed to pass,” Franks said. “We’re just speculating on what wouldhappen. ” Franks reported the first opinion of City leaders is that Norton would revert to an unincorporated community with no enforcement powers. He said if this happened it is hoped that some sort of trusteeship might Power in all sizes w I 1 f * ^w ~ COME SEE THE DEUTZ >4 TRACTOR FOR EVERY .

Phone 675-3566 be set up by the courts to give Norton the temporary authority to act as an incorporated community. One possible course of action if the amendment fails to pass is for Norton to immediately apply for a town charter, Franks said. HE SAID even though Norton might be successful in obtaining a town charter to continue to provide services it would probably mean an increase in taxes to citizens of Norton be cause of the addition of county taxes. Questions that need to be asked by citizens of the county and of Norton, Franks observed, are: “What would be the effect of Norton losing its city status on the Wise County Board of Supervisors?” “How would the Board redistrict Norton to fit into County magisterial districts?” “What would happen to Norton’s bonded indebtedness?” (Norton has around $1,300,000 in bonded indebtedness.) FRANKS said it appeared to him that if Norton reverted to the County that the County would be partially responsible for Norton’s indebtedness. He said from meetings between the Norton City Council and the Board of Supervisors the indications were that the Board did not want Norton to lose its city status. In regard to Norton’s independent school sy stem, Franks said if the amendment fails to pass, there is a possibility that Norton could continue to operate its schools independently. The question, though, Franks said, is “could Norton support a school system?” y Franks said that people he has contacted in other municipalities, who are knowledgeable about Norton’s situation, are concerned about the amendment’s passage. He explained that there are several other borderline cities across the state that depend on one industry for their survival. If the industry closed down or laid off employees these cities would be in the same predicament as Norton, Franks said. □ Speaking of mobile homes in Rappahannock — there was one there Tuesday when the home of Mr. and Mrs. G.

PAID POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT Senator Spong A responsible voice for all Virginians •• When Virginians go to the polls on November 7, they will select a United States Senator to represent them. We think you should carefully consider what each candidate will mean to you. Spong’s approach to his job as Senator has been to determine what he should be doing to represent the interest of the people of Virginia, and then do it. AGRICULTURE: Spong fought vigorously for the passage of the Agriculture Appropriations Bill (1971-72). This bill provided funds for tobacco, peanut and dairy price supports, water and soil conservation programs (REAP), agricultural research, and the extension service. Scott, however, being insensitive to the needs of Virginia farmers, opposed these important agricultural programs. DEFENSE: Spong voted against the McGovern amendment providing for a $4 billion across-the board cut in defense. Furthermore, Spong led the fight for the carrier CVAN-70, and is a strong advocate of the Trident nuclear submarine program. ECONOMY: Spong has been a leading Congressional figure in the fight against inflation and unemployment. His stands for fiscal responsibility were recognized by the National Associated Businessmen, Inc., which awarded him the 1972 “Watchdog of the Treasury Award.” DRUGS: Spong has demanded research into the causes, cures and means of preventing drug abuse, and has fought for touch measures to stop illegal drug traffic. Scott on the otherhand, voted against the formation of the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, an organization formed to spearhead the war against drug abuse. wmmmm “Senator Spong is a reasonable, dedicated, diligent man of moderation. . . He is highly respected by his colleagues in the Senate crucible. On November 7, he deserves to be returned to the Senate, to continue the tradition he began six years ago.” Senator Spong has worked hard to make decisions that he believes to be in the best interest of Vir-» ginians. We believe that the success of Senator Spong this November will be a victory for those who believe that reasoned and responsible government is our best hope. Vote-Right-Vote-Spong Allen J.

PANTHER TALES by Susan Latham The Ring Dance Friday night was deemed a huge success by the students who came. Thanks to the crazy commercials on the intercom by the Seniors they were really inspired and the attendance was high. Everyone seemed pleased with the band and especially the song, “Tighten Up.” The seniors were delighted with the generosity of Miss Annie Miller Almond, Mrs. W.M. Fletcher, Mrs. Eileen Day, Mrs. A. T. Cannon and Elmer Atkins for furnishing food and drinks for the dance. Chaperoning the event were school principal Dennis Wingfield, Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Wood, William Harrison, Roger Flinchum, Mrs. W. F. Moffett, Mr. and Mrs. B. G. Titchenell, Mr. and Mrs. R.B. Pomeroy, and Deputy Everett Estes who gave their time to see that the event was enjoyed by the students. Thank you all. The RCHS cross country team met with Randolph Macon Tuesday and won both the varsity and junior varsity races. The scores again were perfect with our JV’s winning 15-45 and the varsity winning 15-46. The first five places for the JV were Jerry Thomas, Carroll Jenkins, Clifton Jenkins, Andy Nichols and Kevin Raney. Keep on JV’s. On the varsity squad Charlie Thomas set a new record of 11 minutes and 40 seconds in first place. Bill and Tom Taylor were second and third, in that order, John Summers fourth and Ronnie Nicholson fifth. The next meet is this Saturday with Stonewall Jackson.

Secret vote was scorned in early days ofU.S. Voting in American elections once was a manly art that sometimes required self-defense. The 85 million citizens expected to go to the polls November 7 will ballot in privacy and on the same day. It wasn’t always so, the National Geographic Society says. Voice voting was widespread in the American colonies and continued in some states after the Revolution. Men gathered at a polling place and announced their choices aloud to an election judge. A bullying crowd greeted the votes with cheers and jeers. The noisy public vote was replaced in New York State by a secret ballot in 1852, but privacy was discarded the following year on the ground that it “insulted the manliness and independence of the laboring man.” Secret voting in national elections became Federal law in 1875, but Kentucky held State elections by voice vote until 1891. Paper ballots were used as early as 1634 in Massachusetts. But these and later ballots were unofficial and provided by the voter himself, and were not necessarily marked in secret. When ballots increased in size, political parties printed them.for the convenience of their supporters. Each part} produced its ballot on distinctively colored paper so poll watchers could see at a glance whether the party faithful were indeed faithful. So many varieties, shapes, and colors of paper ballots were used — often to deceive — that the United States went all the way to Australia for a new system. It borrowed the Australian ballot, an honest listing of candidates, officially printed, and intended to be secretly marked. “Kangaroo voting,” as it was first called, was adopted by Louisville, Kentucky and Massachusetts in 1888, then by New York, Michigan and other states. However, ballot reform came only after election day uniformity . Originally, each state could fix its own presidential election day so long as it fell at least 34 days before the first Wednesday in December, the date presidential electors met. Lack of uniformity led to scandals such as “pipelaying” — the practice of sending political gangs across state lines to vote more than once on the dif VOTE FOR MURAT WILLIAMS for CONGRESS Kenneth Robinson should be retired from Congress NOW Robinson has consistently voted AGAINST: 0 The Farmer * # Senior Citizens 0 The Consumer 0 The Taxpayer 0 Our Children 0 Conservation and Environment ...but he has consistently voted FOR: 0 Spending for Big Business and Agri-Business Robinson voted: AGAINST: water pollution control, flood control, prevention of dumping of nuclear waates, prohibiting the diacharge of aewage in navigable watera, more atringent induatrial requirementa concerning pollution of our waterwaya.

AGAINST: Consumer legislation for auto safety and transportation research. AGAINST: Nixon-backed Welfare Reform, which called for extensive re-vamping of our welfare system.

In 1845, Congress passed a law setting the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November as presidential election day. November was selected as the most acceptable month. “Harvesting is over then and winter has not yet made i the roads impassable,’M said Ohio Representative Alexander Duncan in writing the 1845 law. It was felt that election day shouldn’t be the first of November because businessmen like to make out accounts that day. Public sentiment was against Sunday voting. Monday was ruled out because many persons lived a day’s journey from polling places and objected to Sunday travel. Thus the present election day was chosen. It never falls on the first nor later than November 8. □ BRIDGE MEETING Mrs. Carroll Quaintance entertained the Sperryville Bridge Club and additional guests at her home on Friday evening.

Lee GaiTett, Tress. Speed aggravates auto accidents Virginia crash data indicates that the severity of Injury and the risk of fatality increases as speed increases, according to John T. Hanna, director, Highway Safety Division of Virginia. In 1971 the fewest number of accidents occured at speeds of 71 miles per hour and over, however, 158 motorists were killed in this speed range, the largest number in any speed category. “High speed aggravates the severity of the crash,” Hanna continued, “and in most cases increased speed means increased chances for fatal crashes. A total of 384 persons were killed on Virginia highways last year in accidents where the speed limit was exceeded.” Speeds which are excessive for prevailing operational conditions underlie a great proportion of motor vehicle crashes, according to the safety official. There is no one safe speed for all circumstances. “Traffic, weather, highway surfaces, time of day, pedestrians, the physical condition of the driver and his ability to react all determine whether the posted speed limit is a safe speed for circumstances,” Hanna said. Safety tests have shown ment of State Police for its enforcement of the anti - hitchhiking law. He expressed hope that the department will “intensify its activities where needed” to keep hitchhikers off the inter state roads. In a letter to Col. Harold W. Burgess, superintendent of State Police, Jones referred to the 13 pedestrian deaths on the interstate roads in Virginia during 1970, 14 during 1971 and seven during the first six months of 1972. The records do not show how many of these pedestrians were hitchhiking, but it is believed that many of them were, Jones said. Jones, writing on behalf of the 12 member safety commission, said that hitchhiking not only threatens the lives of the hitchhikers but also creates a serious danger of a collision when a vehicle stops to pick up or discharge a * rider. that the capability of a moving vehicle to be stopped is primarily dependent upon road surface material and conditions, presence of rain or snow, tire tread design and condition, brake system capability and driver reaction. Day or night, the field of vision becomes restricted with increased speed. Images move faster than the eye can compensate, making clear vision in the peripheral zone impossible. □ By authority Fauquier County Republican Committee, Ian S. Montgomery, Treat.
