V Volume XXIV, Number 35 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1973 TEN CENTS Guilty plea is entered COVER BAKER of Front Royal entered a plea of guilty in Rappahannock County Court Friday to three of five charges placed against him on April 1. The remaining two offences were nolle prosequi. Baker was in a collision on Route 522 north of Huntly in which Frank Lewis Smith of Vienna was killed. Trooper W.A. Buntin investigated the traffic accident. Baker was convicted of driving under the influence, * improper registration and no insurance. He was not ^ prosecuted on a manslaug- , " liter charge, and on one for * reckless driving. A Charge of an habitual offender was sent to the grand jury. Baker was fined $200 and $16.75 costs for the first offence; $15 and $16.75 costs for the second and $25 and $16.75 costs for the last. LAST WEEK Baker, along with Joseph Abraham Clatterbuck of Sperryville, was charged with larceny and breaking and entering in the burglary attempt of a home near Washington, Va. He is being held in Rappahannock County jail without bond, since these offenses occurred while he was under bond from the traffic charges. Mrs. Mildred Slater was appointed by the court to represent Baker in'the traffic violations. For the remaining charges, Edward M. Greco of Front Royal was named by the court as his attorney. □ Beauty winners WASHINGTON Mayor Andrew L. Kozik has announced the winners in the Washington Beautification Contest.

SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor .Telephone Washington 675-3349 Counting blessings THE FOURTH OF JULY holiday just past is a traditional time for Americans to take stock of all the things that make it worthwhile to be an American. Thanksgiving is another. People count their blessings and conclude that they’re fortunate to have been born under the stars and stripes. And then the editorialists always add a reminder that good fortune isn’t enough, that America didn’t just happen, and that good things won’t necessarily follow — without active, concerned citizens taking an active interest in how their country is run, for them and their children. All familiar stuff, to be sure. But We wonder if people ever really appreciate the down-to-earth, purely local application of the airy, patriotic generalizations? Do people enjoying the way of life offered by Rappahannock County, for example, « really understand why Rappahannock is what it is, and what it will take to keep life pleasant and enjoyable here, for them and their children. READERS OF THE NEWS, and of its sister publication, the Piedmont Virginian, know what the editors think makes life worthwhile in Rappahannock, and throughout this particularly beautiful part of the North American continent. A landscape shaped by generations of jrien living on and with the land; towns mellowed by decades of neighborliness and civic concern; majestic mountains unscarred by incompatible use. c We think we know what it isn’t, too — it isn’t something compounded of tidky-tacky subdivisions, silted streams, clogged highways, overcrowded schools and rising tax rates. To us, it seems obvious that you can’t preserve a beautiful, desirable way of life while at the same time trying to make accommodations for every super-developer, weekend vacationer and wholesale speculator who was attracted to Rappahannock in the first place precisely because it wasn’t all of the things listed above. So, let us pause on the Fourth of July and on all appropriate occasions to think about what we hold dear and what special blessings are ours — and think in specific terms, too, and not just airy generalizations. □ Trout stocking Approximately 15,000 trout were stocked into the streams of eight Virginia counties on Tuesday, July 3. Those streams include Pound River (Dickenson Cp.); South ForkHolston River (lower) (Smith Co.); South Fork Holston River (Gorge) (Smith Co.); Dan River ( below power house) (Patrick Co.); Jackson River (Rt 623) (Bath Co.); Spring Run (Bath Co.); Jackson River (Highland Co.); Big Stoney Creek Shenandoah Co.); Piney River and Piney River Proper (Amherst Co.) and the Smith River in Henry County. Jennie M. Jenkins of Castleton will receive a year's subscriptionto the Rappahannock News for correctly identifying last week s barn as that of William A. Lane located between Woodville and Scrabble. Others to correctly name the barn were Clifton Clark and Mrs. Gene Meredith. Try this old structure. Virginia orchards INTENSIVE plantings with semi-dwarf trees is the direction of the apple industry of Virginia, says Fred R. Dreiling, associate professor of horticulture and Extension fruit specialist at Virginia Tech. The acreage of apple orchards in Virginia is decreasing while tree numbers are on. the increase. The cost-price squeeze and labor shortage will be met by more mechanization and greater efficiency in intensive plantings. Whereas trees several decades ago were planted at 35-40 trees per acre they are now being planted in many orchards at 140-180 trees per acre. This movement to the “orchard of the future” is further emphasized in the last Virginia apple tree survey, said Dreiling. Some 35 per cent of all apple trees and 69 per cent of the young trees are now of the semi-dwarf type. 9 THERE ARE advantages to be gained by growing the smaller apple tree. As these plantings conform to the hedge row system of training they will ultimately give earlier age tree production per acre. This means greater overall efficiency in the orchard operation. In fact, the smaller growing tree is in itself more efficient. More fruit can be produced per pound of tree growth on the semi-dwarf trees than on standard apple trees. Experience has shown that these smaller than standard trees will produce apples of more uniform size and sustain uniform production per acre, the specialist said. It is anticipated that fruit quality will improve with the increased planting of the smaller than standard trees^ With proper training and ease of spraying a high er percentage of quality fruit can be harvested. AS IS to be expected, the orchard of the future is not a utopia. The requirements of these smaller trees are more exacting if the benefits are to be realized. It is important to locate the orchards on the better sites and soils. In these new plantings the objective is to start with a tree of good vigor (4-6 feet in height and 5/8 inches in trunk diameter) and maintain good growth through the non-bearing years. Then with the first commercial crop there is greater bearing surface and heavier early production. Intensive tree care during the non-bearing years is essential to maximize benefits. This means effective tree training, weed control, fertilization, defruiting, pest control and possible drought care. THE AVERAGE annual production for, apples in Virginia is around 400 bushels per acre. It is anticipated that this will increase to around 600 bushels by 1980. This increase in large degree will result from planting the demi-dwarf type tree. The leading apple variety in the state if Red Delicious with 36.5 per cent of the total tree population. This week's Farm price outlook CATTLE FAT CATTLE PRICES are near their peak, but with the strong demand for meat and the relatively small pork and broiler supply, any weakness in the market would likely be limited. Starting with February, slaughter has remained behind 1972. The first four months of this year slaughter was down 4 per cent, Federally inspected slaughter in May was off 5 per cent, and in the first half of June was down 9 per cent. \?old storage holdings as of June 1 were at 340 million pounds — 23 per cent above a year ago. Also as of June 1, cattle on feed in the seven major reporting states was set at 9,455,000 head — 4 per cent above that period last year. The slaughter cattle market last Thursday in Omaha closed with choice steers bringing $46.50 - $47.75; mixed good and choice steers, $45.50 - $46.25; choice heifers, $45.00 - 46.50; and mixed good and choice heifers, $44.00 - $46.25. Cattle prices at Virginia auctions last week were as follows: good steers, $41.50 - $46.50; standard steers, $38.00 - $43.50; good heifers, $38.00 - $44.60; and standard heifers, $34.00 - $40.00.

Grain marketing planning a necessity FARMERS can expect long-term beneficial effects from the sale of Commodity Credit Corporation grain stocks, and they can plan their marketing operations with this new factor in mind, a local farm official said today. “For the first time in a quarter of a century, producers no longer have huge government grain stocks hanging over the market,” saidT.R. Taylor, chairman of the Rappahannock Agricultural StaBIBLE SCHOOL Forest Grove Baptist Church will hold bible school each evening at the church from July 9 through 13 with hours from 7 until 9 p.m. There will be classes for all ages including an adult class.: Everyone is welcome to attend.

Carver, Secretary and Treasurer. □ bilization and Conservation Committee. “This means that farm prices in the future will more faithfully reflect the pull of the market.” With CCC grain stocks practically out of the picture, farmers may want to plan their overall marketing operations accordingly.

During the month of June. »rW»:>»C»ci FMC CORPORATION CHARLES E. SUTPHHMNC. Washington, Va. Phona 675-3566 of Agriculture recently announced that CCC has sold or earmarked for special use all of its corn and wheat and has only small stocks of barley, rye, and sorghums. The only grain being held in sizeable qlantity in CCC’s uncommitted inventory is oats. ORDERLY movement of government - held grain stock into commercial channels has been progressing since early January when USDA announced plans to expand sales of C C C grain, the chairman said. The department pointed out then that it has a legal obligation to supplement short supplies of private grain, and since then over 250 million bushels of CCC grain have entered the market. “This means that anyone who wants to buy grain or soybeans bids for these commodities on the open market. “Supply and demand now dominate prices which are no longer depressed by huge governsurpluses.” Looking ahead, this condition can be expected to continue as U.S. farmers continue to produce for markets at home and abroad. Therefore, farmers everywhere can be looking ahead now to newer mar keting methods—as many have already begun to do in many sections of the country. TAYLOR NOTED that interest in forward contracting, hedging, and other forms of marketing to lock in profits, often before crops are even planted, is increasing across the country. “One has only to notice the big increase in articles on the subject now appearing in the farm press to see this.” Now is the time for farmers to get information and make their own decisions about whether, and in what way, to go about locking in the price they need to pay their expenses and make a profit. Information is available from local and national cooperatives, other local and national grain dealers, land-grant colleges, and frequently from bankers and other sources of farm financing. “We can’t tell a farmer when or at what price he should sell, because he is the one who takes the risk and stands to lose or gain. However, farmers everywhere are looking at their various options, and this is the way it should be.” □ Hew and Used Can and Trucks PIEDMONT Chevrolet-Oldsmobile, Inc. 814 N.

0 “There are two things we want to make perfectly cleat*: our lakes and our rivers.” That is the slogan of the recently activated Water Qualify Committee of the Rappahannock League for Environmen - tal Protection (RLEP). The following article is the second in a series by that committee’s acting chairman, Captain3 H. W. Holschuh, USN (Retired) outlining what each of us can do if we. want to make Rappahannock County’s lakes and rivers pure enough to swin in. Readers’ comments are solicited. SEVENTY PERCENT of the surface of the earth is covered with water. A stream rising in Rappahannock County flows into Chesapeake Bay, and out into the Atlantic Ocean, and eventually mingles with all the waters of the “Seven Seas.” A plastic bottle or other unsinkable trash floating in one of our rivers has a good chance of being carried by the ocean currents and winding up on the shores of Europe, Africa, or South America. Similarly, their garbage could end up on our shores. Pesticides and other chemicals running off from our farms and orchards, along with oil and grease dripping from our cars and tractors, and wastes from our sewers not only pollute the streams and rivers which carry them to the sea, but they also seep into the subsoil strata, endangering our wells and springs. This runoff also threatens the health of fish, birds, wild animals, and even humans living far down stream, or out on the oceans of the world. Four tons of kingfish caught 20 miles off the coast of California had to be impounded recently because they contained too much DDT, a persistent chemical which does not break down on its journey to the sea from farms inland. OTHER potentially harmful chemicals are phosphates and nitrates — such as found in some detergents, fertilizers, and human and animal wastes — since they can destroy the delicate oxygen content in the water. A mountain stream plunging over rocks and dancing in the sunlight contains abundant oxygen. Fish and other aquatic animals, which take oxygen from the water through their gills, thrive in these clear streams. But when we add too much organic matter or nutrients such as phosphates and nitrates, microbes and algae begin to multiply rapidly, using up oxygen faster than it can diffuse in from the air. Fertilizers hasten the growth of aquatic plants, whose development and decomposition consume further supplies of oxygen. Fish cannot survive in this contaminated water, and die. This process, called “eutrophication,” eventually fills ponds and streams with muck and turns them into swamps or mar^ shland. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) points out that soil erosion, _ A wastes from barnyards or animal pens, improper or excessive use of pesticides or fertilizers, and careless discarding of trash and junk are among the worst causes of water pollution in rural areas such as ours. HERE ARE a few things the agriculturist can do to help keep water pure: properly apply agricultural chemicals; use only biodegradable, low phosphate detergents; impound or divert waste water; follow good soil conservation practices. The farmer and individual homeowner can also take such precautions as preventing trash and junk from piling up in places where it will wash into the nearest lake or stream. The Memorial Day flood posited dozens of plastic bottles and other household garbage along the river bank and on the bridge abutments of Route 626 at Rock Mills. If homeowners were required to put their names on indestructible andnonreturnablecon tainers, we wonder if they would be so careless about letting them slip from their grasp. WHILE OUR primary goal should be the complete elimination of our one major source of water pollution — the dumping of raw sewage into our streams and rivers — we should not lose sight of the cumulative effect of cleaning up hundreds of small sources of water pollution wherever they exist. These not only foul the local landscape, but they create health and safety hazzards over a wide area. The EPA in its booklet “What YOU can do about water pollution” offers the following simple rule of thumb for farmers large and small: Manage your land so that nothing washes away when the rains come or the snows melt. Most pollution from land can be controlled or prevented now, if every citizen makes a personal commitment to maintain a litter free environment. □ Statistics on wheat WHEAT production in Northern Virginia declined from 1971 to 1972 in all but two of five counties, according to the Virginia Crop Reporting Service. In Loudoun County wheat produced for grain increased from 237,600 bushels in 1971 to 244,500 bushels in 1972. Yield per acre, however, declined from 44 to 40 bushels, the service reported. Wheat production in 1972 also was up slightly in Rappahannock County. The service reported 14,400 bushels produced for grain in 1971 and 14,500 produced in 1972. Yield was down from 32 bushels to the acre in 1971 to 29 bushels per acre last year. IN OTHER counties Clarke reported production.;; down from 57,600 bushels in 1971 to 49,300 bushels last year, with a corresponding drop in yield from 32 to 29 bushels to the acre. Fauquier reported wheat production dropped from 119,000 bushels in 1971 to 114,700 bushels last year, and a per acre yield drop from 34 to 31 bushels.

SOCIAL security payments will keep pace with the American standard of living for the next 50 years, according to Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, social security district manager in Winchester. “A recent change in the law ha§ made social security inflation-proof,” she ¥ said. ”Incr6ases in benefits are tie<j directly to increases in the cost of living. Each year, beginning in 1974, living costs will be compared with those of the year before. If living costs have increased 3 percent or more and a general social security benefit increase has not been enacted, benefits will be increased by the same percentage the following January.” The first automatic increase in benefits could be for January 1975. * “TO HELP meet the increased =c<jsts for these automatic increases in benefits,” Mrs. Crumpton said, “the social security law provides for automatic increases in the contribution and benefit base — the maximum amount of annual earnings on which social security contributions are paid and benefits based. “Increases in the base will only go into effect when automatic benefit increases become effective. The base will be increased automatically in proportion to increases in average wages covered by social security if that average has increased since the base or benefits were most recently increased.” Social security now pays over $4 billion a month in retirement, disability, and survivors benefits to over 28 million people. -V Mrs. M.

Smith, has announced definite preparations for the Fifth Annual Shenandoah Valley Farm Craft Days. The event will be held Saturday, July 21, and Sunday, July 22, at the historic Belle Grove plantation, a property of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. As in previous years, the festival coincides with wheat harvest time at Belle Grove, which has been a working farm since its establishment some 180 ye ars ago. While agricultural and craft demonstrations form the center of this unique farm festival, the spirit of frolic and togetherness that attended harvest time in bygone days will be recreated by a variety of entertainments. FOLK music of the region, an old-time shooting match, sheepherding, buggy rides, and haystack games are but a few of the attractions which have made past Farm Craft Days ideal for family outings. Despite the flood of summer time events vying for public participation in recent years, the Belle Grove Farm Craft Days have had an ever-increasing attendance because of an informal atmosphere, the geniune farm environment, a superb pastoral setting, and, most of all, the presence of area craftsmen. MOST of the artisans still practice their skills throughout the year in Shenandoah Valley communities. The festival will be open on both days. Belle Grove is located on US 11, one mile south of Middletown. Use Middletown exit from Interstate 81. from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. An adult oppossum weighs about 28,000 times its birth weight.

One of his enemies came in the night and sowed some tares (newer translations call it thistles) among the wheat. Tares were a weed that resembles wheat but is poisonous if eaten. We don’t think that people would do things like that today, or do we? The Christian religion maintains that the sin of ommission is about as bad as the sin of commission. Let’s think about that. Someone might say: “Now what brought that on?” I’ll tell you what brought it on, our country is being infested by a type of thistle that will ruin it if something is not done about it. If you have it on your property and let it go to seed and blow away to another’s property you might be accounted, in an abstract way, as guilty as the enemy who sowed the tares long ago.

When you decide to sell, isn’t your main objective to get the most money you can and with .the fewest problems possible? Here are eight good reasons why Panorama Realty can help you. 1. We can make almost any property a little more attractive to potential buyers. Through our experience, we know the reasons people do not buy as well as the reasons they do. 2. We can help you determine the right price. Pricing your property above the current market is the most damaging aspect of a sincere effort to sell. 3. We can give your property the best exposure through our sales office, open 7 days a week, our advertising locally and in the Washington area and our growing list of qualified buyers. 4. We qualify potential buyers first. This process eliminates those people unable to meet the price of your property and saves time for both of us. 3. We can sell prospects on taking action. Even the best prospect needs urging to mane a commitment. 6. As a third party, we are in a much better position to negotiate the price of your property and help maintain the asking price involved. 7. With the tight money situation we are in a better position to help buyers find mortgage money when needed. 8. We are experienced with the paper work involved in the' sale of Real Estate. This experience can save you much time and many headaches. If you are thinking of selling your property give us a call. We’ll be glad to give you some helpful ideas with no obligations involved.
