Rappahannock News, November 4, 1976

23219 NOV 5 Volume XXVII, Number 51 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1976 FIFTEEN CENTS Rappahannock goes for Carter RAPPAHANNOCK VOTERS reversed area and state trends and took their county into the camp of the winner in Tuesday’s presidential election. Unofficial returns show Rappahannock supporting Democratic challenger Jimmy Carter over incumbent President Gerald R Ford, 1,071 votes to 881. Culpeper, Fauquier and Loudoun counties, as well as the state as a whole, went narrowly for Ford. In the fight for Virginia’s United States Senate seat, incumbent Harry F. Byrd, Jr. topped his closest opponent by a two to one margin in the county and won re-election as the Senate’s only Independent. Unofficial results show Byrd with 1,264 votes to 608 for Democrat Bud Zumwalt, and 118 for Republican Martin Perper. The race for the Seventh District Congressional seat was apparently won by Republican incumbent J. Kenneth Robinson with a substantial victory margin over Independent James Hutt. In Rappahannock, it was Robinson 1,217 and Hutt 356. Rappahannock voters followed the statewide trend and supported five out of the six proposed state Constitutional amendments. Only amendment four, which would have allowed government employes and office holders to serve as assistant registrars, failed to win approval. VOTER TURNOUT was heavier than in past elections with 76 ASCS sign-up THE sign-up period under the 1977 Agricultural Conservation Program ends November 13.

She has recently been appointed as a board member to the Lord Fairfax Community College at Middletown.” Mrs. Quaintance has been instrumental in keeping the dental program going in the local elementary school, and administers to many of the personal needs of students without anyone ever knowing just to what a great extent this occurs. ACCORDING to a teacher who has been associated with Mrs. Quaintance for 26 years, “Mrs. Quaintance is a very compassionate person and knows how to draw out the best in an individual. I have worked with her for 26 years, and have never been happier.” □

MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Farms or asphalt? LAST week, we noted with interest the program being inaugurated in Suffolk County, N. Y., to purchase farmer’s development rights, in an effort to preserve what agricultural land is left in that highly developed Long Island community. This week we pass along some information about a similar program being tried in New Jersey, on a statewide basis. In New Jersey, a $5 million demonstration project is under way less than 20 miles from the metropolitan Philadelphia area. As in Suffolk County, farmers will be paid the difference between what their land is worth for agriculture and for development, with the land then being locked permanently in agriculture. New Jersey, as does Virginia, already has a method of special farmland assessments, which was designed to slow down the conversion of agricultural acres to subdivisions. The New Jersey measure accomplished what it set out to do, but the problem still exists. As one state official put it: “Corn can’t com pete witn houses, especially when the value of the land has gone from $1,200 an acre to $12,000 in many places.” A special study commission found that “a lack of permanancy” was one of the biggest plights facing New Jersey farmers. In many instances, the farmer faced a hard choice, with no clear answers: Should he make a capital improvement or wait for the real estate man? The result was deteriorating farm communities and a weakening of what was one of the “Garden State’s” major economic resources. NOW New Jersey is trying a plan which would be financed by a four-mill increase on the state’s real estate transfer tax (a tax, incidentally, which some Virginia counties have tried to levy but which the state legislature has blocked). The state will then purchase development rights, or easements, on farm land at current market value. The plan has been endorsed by the New Jersey Farm Bureau and Grange as well as the State Agriculture Convention, and perhaps most importantly, polls have indicated urban and suburban support as well. Actual payments will be decided by a complicated process of appraisals and bids submitted by farmers, with the goal of putting together contiguous, 1,000-acre blocks of farmland. Some wrinkles remain to be ironed out, and there are no ready answers to some questions that have been raised—such as what happens if the farmer decides to put only “the back 90” up for development right sales but holds out the 10 acres along the highway for speculation. BUT New Jersey officials and citizens have decided that something must be done if agricultural land is to be saved for present and future generations. As one New Jersey legislator put it: “It comes down to this: Do we want it to be the Garden State ot^ the Asphalt State?” It’s a question Virginians should ponder also, especially in the Northern Piedmont. New Jersey, as well as Suffolk County, N. Y., should be watched closely for possible solutions to a growing problem. Achievement night Homemakers Achievement Night program will be held Monday evening, November 8 at 7 p.m. (note time change) in the Flint Hill fire hall. On the program will be the Young Dominions, a 4-H singing group from Fauquier County which has won acclaim over the state FIRE, RESCUE The Sperryville Rescue Squad carried Mrs. Selena Daily from her home in Sperryville to the Rappahannock Clinic and back home October 27.

Bicentennial Ball is November 12 WALDRON O’CONNOR ALTHOUGH frost has definitely been on the bugle these recent days, enough warm feelings are generated by the hot times ahead to thaw all frigid notes that might obstruct its usually liquid song. We mean, of course, that near at hand (or foot) is the Bicentennial Ball, of which you have already heard—several times. But why should repetition dismay a trumpeter who obviously likes, to play his trumpet? So hear again the call to the Ball on Friday next (the 12th, that is) in splendor of a bygone day or night if humanly possible, since, to add the profit motive to other inducements, there will be three attractive prizes awarded as follows: a $50 Bond to the couple wearing the handsomest costumes of the period chosen by that couple, and a nicely framed copy of the Rappahannock County map for the best costume of its era worn by a single lady and ditto for a single man. The judging and a Grand March will enliven the Intermission, after which the Ball will continue until 1 a.m. The place, you undoubtedly know: the old School on Mt. Salem Ave., Washington, and the cost: $12 for solitary attendants, which amount is reduced to $10 a person Davis honored Drucilla Graves Davis was among the nineteen seniors at Mary Washington College, Fredericksburg who have been honored for their outstanding college careers by being named to ‘Who’s Who Among students at American Colleges and Universities’.
