SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 __ c* Welcome news STATISTICS can be depressing things, but the figures showing how 1972 was a relatively goo year in Rappahannock on the highways came as welcome news, indeed. One highway accident fatality was recorded last vear in contrast with the previous year when the county experienced four traffic deaths. Unfortunately, the 1972 record won t be improved in 1973; one death has already occured. But if all of us are careful and considerate, it might be possible for the standing to get no worse. Certainly it is a goal every driver should strive for, for himself and his family and for the well-being of his fellow citizens as well. □ Si Sez SUNDAY WAS MOTHER’S DAY. It was a good day for me. Think I was instrumental in making it a little ^brighter for several mothers. Went to church and when the preacher asked the mothers to stand and be recognized, four men tried to claim that honor. Ha, ha. Was I embarrassed. My wife and I took a leisurely trip into the metropolitan area to spend the afternoon with her mother and sister, then to her daughter’s home, then to a church where we were fed and entertained by local talent. The church gave the dinner in honor of motherhood. We came home late, tired, but happy for the beauty V the day and an added bonus, a fluffy kitten I’ve named Peke. The^e have been mothers, many of them famous, down through the ages. One of them was a little 13 year old girl named Mary. I am told that in her language she called the little boy Yeshua, that he grew in statue, in favor with God and men. But, we are thinking of mothers at this time. Some maintain that Mary retained her womanly ‘purity’ all her life, that she never had wifely relations with her husband; that he respected her wishes, that she was finally absorbed (I believe the term is) into heaven without dying. Perhaps that is what the poet had in mind when he penned these lines— “O spotless woman in a world of shame, With splendid and silent scorn, Go back to God as pure as y6u came— The kingliest warrior born. i ;„hq Dniic of Washington, Va. was the only person to reply to the barn contest picture last week. She correctly identified it as that on the L. J. Kilby Property east of Sperryville on Route 211. She will receive a free subscription to the Rappahannock News. Try this. Letters to the Editor No homesties planned Editor: I was distressed to see the article and editorial in your issue of May 10, which indicates that the County Board of Supervisors believes that Rappahannock Ski Area may be planning a substantial home site development without appropriate consultation with the proper county authorities I do not know the origin of the ad in “Leisure Home Living” referred to in the article but I assure you it was not placed by our Company. More important, I want to assure you and all of the citizens of Rappahan CLASS REUNION Plans are being made for a reunion of the Class of 1952 graduates of Rappahannock County High School. Interested members may call Mrs. Helen Coffey, 987-3461, Mrs. Beatrice Sheppard, 9878639 or Mrs. Josephine Vest, 987-8898. nock County what I assured the Chairman of the Zoning Commission and the County Zoning Administrator before we even bought the area: We of Camelback (and now also Rappahannock) believe most strongly in working at all times with the appropriate county authorities and with the members of the Community long before we make any definite plans concerning any development or anything else that might affect the community. So far, we have no homesite planning whatever, but have planned only for the upgrading and expansion -of our area. When we ever start thinking of any homesite planning or any other type of planning, which will in any way affect the community as a whole, our policy will be to work with the officials of the County on an informal basis long before we propose any formal plan. This will result in the planning being a joint effort and our knowing well in advance what are desireable and what are undesireable things to do. We share with your newspaper, with the Coun ty Board of Supervisors and the citizens of Rappahannock County the desire to keep the County beautiful and unpolluted and to keep the taxes low. Despite the financial catastrophe of our first season, we are optimistic about the future of our area. We believe we demonstrated that good snow could be made and good skiing offered. We have enjoyed our relations with every one with whom we have come into contact and have looked forward, and do look forward, to continuing good relations, so that we may work together rather than working apart for the development of an attractive area consistent with the careful long-range planning of the County as a whole. We like the County; we hope the County likes us. James A.

E L I T T L E F 0 X One Ty>^'n severly hurt in cur accidents A SINGLE-CAR crash near Flint Hill severely injured one man, two collisions occurred involving animals and a minor crash happened in the past week, according to police reports. Saturday night on Route 522 a *68 Chevrolet operated by Joe Lewis of Washington, Va. went out of control and struck a tree totalling the vehicle and injuring two. The driver sustained severe injuries including fractures of both legs and jaw and multiple lacerations. Ernest Rooker, also of Washington, had numerous lacerations. Lewis was charged with reckless driving. The same night on a pri vate road near Sperryville a ’66 Chevrolet and a ’71 Plymouth collided head on as they crested a hill. Drivers were Ella Mae Harper of Washington, Va. and the vehicle was owned by her mother Mrs. Mary Harper and Patsy Nail of Falls Church, respectively- lyNo injuries resulted and no charges were made. ON ROUTE 640 near Amissville Firday, May 11, Betty Jean Blake of Front Royal in a ’69 Plymouth owned by Downing Wood Hitt of Castleton failed to negotiate a curve and struck a tree. Damage to the car was estimated at $400. The driver was not injured and Nine turkeys bagged THE 1973 SPRING TURKEY season ended with nine turkeys being killed in Rappahannock. Bradford’s Store at Flint Hill checked six of these, including a second gobbler taken by Sherman Atkins and one by A. M. Pennington of Washington. Elmer Jenkins at Amissville checked two. One of those was taken in Fauquier County. Mrs. Sherman Williams at Chester Gap checked two. The second one was an 18 1/2 pound gobbler killed in Fauquier by William Cameron, Jr. One turkey killed here was checked out of the county. This spring’s kill was about half of that a year ago when 17 turkeys were repoted killed in Rappahannock. Apparently many counties in the state are going to be down from last year’s kill figures, some by as much as half as was the case here. The cool rainy weather was probably the biggest factor in poor hunting. This, however, should not affect this year’s hatch at this point. The critical period should be from now through the next few weeks when hatching and the first days of rearing will occur. • Picture Framing ANf Diploma framing WARREN PAINT AND SUPPLY CO.

With the high cost of meat, what a shame . . . Charles Burke of Warrenton made a valid attempt to miss this animal on Route 642 Tuesday night, but to no avail. The calf and the pickup collided with the obvious results. Antique collecting workshop COLLECTING American Antiques is the subject of the fourth in the current series of Saturday Craft Seminars at The Country Store of Washington, which will be conducted by Linda and Gary Gruber on May 19. The seminar is scheduled for 2 p.m. with a $2 registration charge. Linda and Gary Gruber are avid collectors, and their house is full of items in their collection of 18th and 19th century American furniture and folk art. The Grubers have not only been collecting for years for themselves, they have also acted as “pickers” for a number of antique stores. As the prices of all antiques and collectors’ items have skyrocketed in the last few years, it has become more difficult to find bargains because everyone is more aware of the worth of antiques. “It’s not like in the old days when you could take a chance because prices were so ridiculously low it didn’t matter if an object was authentic,” ac cording to Gary. “Today you should know what you are buying, which means collectors have to do a little more homework. The more you know, the better chance you have to make a real investment.” THE GRUBERS recently moved back to Pennsylvania from a year’s stay in this area. During the last year Gary had been acting minister of the Washington (Virginia) Baptist Church in Washington. Linda has recently become a regional celebrity as the “egg lady” who taught thousands of people how to decorate Ukranian Easter eggs at The Country Store just before Easter. Linda is particularly fond of antique quilts. Different patterns were characteristic of different regions so she can often identify where a quilt came from by its design. She can date a quilt by the patterns in the fabrics used to make the patches. On Saturday, the Grubers will focus on the art of an tique collecting. They will have slides with them from their own and other collections to illustrate their talk. They will discuss how to collect antiques, what the best buys are at the present time, where to find the best market places and will share their experience about how to deal with antique dealers.

DADD PIIATS ByRAPOWINGS Jt vIlA A W Extension Agent THE TIME HAS LONG SINCE passed when a farmer can do as he darn well pleased within the confines of his own boundary fence. Farm and city have become too closely interrelated to allow it. Industrial waste has reduced crop yields and poisoned livestock; agricultural waste has polluted down stream city water supplies. The following briefs of recently enacted laws and standards are dry reading but will eventually effect many farmers and landowners in Rappahannock . As in the past, Extension will not be involved in enforcing any law but will be responsible for helping to make farmers aware of them. For further information regarding these laws, contact your Extension Office. The Virginia Department of Agriculture ana commerce and Food and Drug Administration are expanding their programs to include on-farm inspection to determine if producers are using feeds containing feed additives in accordance with label directions. While on the farm, the inspector will check to see that the mill has provided the required labeling to the farmer and if the farmer has posted or filed their label where it can be referred to frequently for proper use, storage and handling procedures of the feed, as well as to determine if warning or withdrawal times are being observed. He will also check to see if agricultural chemicals, including pesticides are stores so that they are not likely to contaminate feed or water. This program will get underway about May 15, 1973. A recent Occupational Safety and Health Standard becomes effective June 18, 1973, that will primarily effect commercial orchardists in our area. The standard lists the number of days that must elapse before a farm employee can re-enter an orchard that has been treated with an organophosphorus pesticide. There are 21 such pesticides listed with varying time elapse re-entry periods. Many of these are in common usage in the county. As an example if an apple orchard is sprayed with Parathion, the orchard must be posted and employees warned in a prescribed manor not to enter the orchard for five days. If an employee is required to enter the orchard within this five day period, he must be provided and must wear the required clothing, respirator and footwear. The State Air Pollution Control Board has beefed up its manpower and Rappahannock is now monitored on a regular basis. Restrictions on open burning will in all probability be more rigidly enforced. Most open burning for forestry or agricultural practices must have prior approval. The burning of rubber tires, asphaltic materials, crankcase oil, impregnated wood or similar materials which produce dense smoke shall not be permitted. State Water Control Law and its application to agriculture in Rappahannock will have little effect at present. Primarily these laws are aimed at preventing run off from heavy concentration of livestock in limited areas such as dairy loafing barns, beef feed lots and hog parlors, from entering springs, streams and rivers. Swine and beef producers who concentrate relative, large numbers of livestock in small feed lots with springs or streams running through could be headed for trouble. Also, extreme care should be taken to prevent flushing of spray tanks or the discarding of pesticide containers intoor near streams. Reminder from the Superintendent of Virginia State Police: Effective June 1, 1973 all farm tractors in excess of 108 inches in width moved on Virginia highways shall be equipped with at least one safety flashing light. rjprhe Final tribute, Perfection in Details CLORE FUNERAL HOME ‘The Home of Thoughtful Service” £ CEMETERY MEMORIALS PHONE 825-1361 X * CULPEPER

Mrs. Williamson entertained the Chancellor Garden Club from Spotsylvania on Tuesday. The group had requested a meeting with her for a discussion and demonstration on growing and using herbs. This spring, Mrs. Williamson had supplied the Washington Cathedral three thousand herb plants for the annual plant mart there. SHE EXPLAINED TO THE group that herbs have multiple uses: culinary, medicinal, decorative and aromatic. Many herbs have been found extremely high in vitamins after being analyzed for content. They are used for seasoning, fragrance, decoration and are also useful as insect repellents. As a sample she displayed a “doggie pad” which contained herbs that discourage fleas and told of others which helped in moth-proffing. For kitty there was a catnip ball. Luncheon following the meeting consisted of herb sandwiches, salad and dressing containing herbs, herb tea and the table centerpiece was composed of flowers and herbs. O Mrs. “Flossie” Williamson, specializing in herbs, was speaker for a meeting of the Chancellor Garden Club Tuesday at her home Oak Forest. She had given a talk and demonstration Saturday at the Washington Country Store where her herb plants are stocked. Mrs. Williamson provided 3000 plants for the spring mart at the Washington Cathedral. Members of the Chancellor Garden Cluh who visited Mrs. W. R. Williamson at Oak Forest Tuesday include Mrs. Dorothy Lawrence, Mrs. Eda Kendall, Mrs. Hilda Pullen, Mrs. Gerry McCreary, Mrs. Ora B.

PANTHER TALES By Susan Latham MAY IS such an exciting month and only about 13 more school days, just over two weeks. Can you believe it? Another year has practically flown by. These last weeks have been spent reminiscing by many, and others are looking forward to the next year. Everything seems to be uncertain and has a mystic quality about it. The baseball team played two thrilling games Monday and Tuesday. When the Panthers met Luray Monday the score early in the game favored the Panthers 3-1 but Luray came through in the last minutes and took the contest 8-3. Tuesday the opponent was Page County and we lost through a strange technicality. The final score was 4-2. In the last inning with Rappahannock at bat, Clif ford Frye gained a base and Mike Smoot hit the ball over the fence to bring in two runs. However, confusion at second base occurred and an out was called. This was the third out and Page won. The SCA met Tuesday to discuss uses of the treasury funds. Final decisions will not be divulged until the awards assembly. Part of the money will go toward the purchase of a new cyclarama (back curtains on the stage) for the §tage. THE NEW annual staff held its first meeting Tuesday and Mr. Ellis, a representative of a publishing company, showed slides and spoke on putting a yearbook together. The staff of the annual, “The Rappsody,” has been selected with yours truly, Susan Latham, as editor, and Norman Jenkins assistant editor. Business manager is Cassie Frye and Nanette Butler will act as advertising committee chairman. She will be aided by Beverly Atkins, Sarah Clark and Judy Atkins.
