VIRGINIA Phone 673-3349 25° In Variance Case Baliles Rules No Hardship A contract buyer who knowingly agrees to buy property with development restrictions and then seeks a zoning ordinance variance as a way around those restrictions doesn't qualify for the variance on hardship grounds, according to a ruling from Virginia Attorney General Gerald Baliles. , The opinion was requested by commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner in regard to a case currently before the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals. Wavne Jenkins applied last February to the BZA for an area variance from side-yard and set-back provisions for a lot which is one of several on Route 626 near Washington initially subdivided in 1899. Owned by Warrenton speculator David Farrar, the parcel in question Is 95 feet wide at its widest point. Jenkins is the contract purchaser of the lot with his contract contingent upon the securement of necessary zoning approvals. In order to build a house for resale as he currently plans, he must obtain variances to zoning regulations which require 75 feet setback and 50 feet sideyard for single family residential structures on agriculturally zoned land. Following the hearing on Jenkins' application in February, the BZA tabled the variance request, {rending legal advice. “The evidence before the board shows that the lot in question meets all health department standards, that Phone Service Interrupted Long distance telephone service to Washington residents was interrupted for approximately two hours last Thursday when a state highway department mower severed a Central Telephone Company cable. According to Charlotte MacTurk in Centel's Front Royal office, the mower cutting a highway median strip between Washington and Flint Hill knocked over one of the utility’s green pedestals at about 3:45 p.m., interrupting both outgoing and incoming long distance calls. The line was repaired and back in service by 5:45. its only feasible use is for residential purposes and that it cannot, because of its configuration and other physical characteristics, be used for residential purposes unless the subject variance is granted,” Baumgardner reported in an April 5 letter to the Attorney General. According to Baumgardner, the evidence before the BZA meets legal requirements for issuance of a variance “except for one possible exception. That exception relates to whether the property was acquired in 'good faith'.” In his letter, the commonwealth’s attorney noted that Jenkins was fully advised and aware of the restrictions from which he is seeking a variance BEFORE he entered into the sales contract. In addition, Jenkins may elect either to purchase or not purchase the property, depending on the BZA's action. Citing legal precedents, Baumgardner wrote that he had advised the BZA that Jenkins' hardship was selfinflicted and would not meet the variance requirements that the property be purchased in “good faith". Baliles in his May 25 answer confirmed Baumgardner's position. He ruled that the good faith acquisition requirement applies to "area" variances, such as that Jenkins is seeking, as well as to use variances and to contract purchasers as well as to record property ow ners. Baumgardner failed. now ever, to get an answer to a third question. During the BZA hearings on Jenkins' application, the point was raised as to whether Article 14-6 of the Rappahannock zoning ordinance which provides that one single-family dwelling may be erected on any nonconforming lot waives sideyard, set-back and rearyard requirements. "I have advised the board that the sideyard, set-back and rear-vard requirements of the ordinance apply to non-conforming as well as to non-non-conforming lots," Baumgardner wrote to the attorney general, and that Jenkins must therefore obtain a variance before building on the lot at issue. He asked Baliles to confirm that opinion and provided a copy (Continued on Page 3) — Rappahannock News Photo/D. Hutchinson MR.

Heirs To Get Half Mrs. Wood’s Estate By DAPHNE HITCHIYSON Kaf>|>nhnnnorK Vh** \X ril. r In an order dated April, 1982. Circuit Court Judge Shore Robertson set aside a portion of Virginia Fletcher Wood's will and directed that half of her estate, valued at approximately $850,000, go to heirs at law rather than to heart research. The estates of Virginia Fletcher and Robert Eugene Wood have been a battleground since the couple was swept from the bridge at Fletcher's Mill by flood waters on August 28, 1979. They left behind no children or other close relatives and two holographic wills, dated 1948. Eugene Wood's will specified a few small bequests and left the balance of his $153,116 estate to be divided between the eanser (sic) and heart funds of Virginia. Although Wood's statutory heirs—three nephews and a niece—argued that they were entitled to the estate on the grounds that the bequest should tail tor indefiniteness, Judge Robertson ruled that Eugene Wood's estate was to be divided between the Virginia Division of the American Cancer Society and the Virginia Affiliate of the American Heart Association. Virginia Fletcher Wood's will divided her assets —$1,610,718 plus 10' 2 acres at Fletcher's Mill with large main house, guest cottage, garage and five outbuildings— into two parts —the Virginia Division ot the American lancer Society to get one halt and "the state of Virginia organization or foundation engaged in research concerning ailments of the heart and heart trouble" to get the other. Several Claimants The portion designated to go to heart research was claimed by the American Heart Association's Virginia affiliate, the University of Virginia and the Medical College of Virginia. At the same time. Virginia Wood's heirs argued that they should receive half the estate because the heart research bequest tailed due to indefiniteness. (Mrs. Wood was an only child and was pre deceased by her parents. She and Eugene Wood hud no children so her heirs-at-law are the children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren of her father's brother, William Meade Fletcher, and include her first cousin. James William Fletcher of Sperrvvilie, four second cousins and two third cousins.) Alter legal proceedings were instituted. the University ol Virginia and tile Medical College ol Virginia consolidated their positions and requested the court to appoint a trustee to administer halt ol Mrs. Wood's estate lor heart research, arguing that hei intent was clearly charitable Judge Robertson acknowledged that, under law. indefiniteness does not defeat certain trusts. But in order to quality, lie noted, a bequesi must uc cliarac teri/ed as a trust. It is possible to create a trust w it hou t using the w md s "trust" or "trustee", the judge pointed out in Ins written ruling. I he test is whether the settlor. Virginia Wood, showed an intention to impose duties to leal w 1111 the property tor the h nelit ol another person. Ri b. rtson added No trust ■ is erea led when the intention is to make an ou (right gilt, he wrote, concluding that Mrs. Wood's will demonstrated "no manifestation of an intention by the testator to create an express trust in favor ol a state of Virginia."

He repeats that theme over and over again with pieces that span the spectrum from traditional watercolors to ultra-modern combinations of media—part collage, part construction, part painting. In what may rank as one of the major art events of the year in Piedmont Virginia, an exhibit of Slack's work, entitled "Rural Images." will open at the Middle Street Gallery in Washington this Sunday. Appreciation of art is an emotional experience, a highly personal reaction to a highly personal creation. Only a tiny fraction of the world's artists are recogni/.ed universally as masters; only a tiny fraction strike the common cord that binds mankind. The following that the rest of the good artists, even the great ones, have gained is more narrow. Not everyone is enthralled by HI Greco’s long figures with their green tinged skin. Not everyone appreciates the distorted, horrified faces that stare down from Picasso's Guernica, the chubby cherubs and buxom blonds that cavort and loll across Reubens' paintings or the watches, clocks and eyes that float through the canvasses of Salvador Dali. And likewise, there will be critics who won't fall in love with Birdie, the overweight redhead with the beehive hairdo w ho works behind the counter in Birdie's Beer and Burgers An incredibly detailed reflection of a rural and rundown roadside diner complete with pinball game and cigar-smoking pinball player, posters for Camel cigarettes and Coppertone suntan lotion and a tilted Coke machine on the sagging front porch, the miniature grabs and spotlight in the exhibition "I've been in and seen a lot of beer joints This is an amalgam of all of them," Slack explains But it's much, much more as well. Birdie's Beer and Burgers says something about life among the down and outers, those missed bv fame and fortune It's not to sav that their existence is all grim—there are lot’s of good times to be had in those old roadside diners. But the good times are hard goixl times, epitomized by the rickety old one-seater behind the diner instead of the gleaming chrome and porcelain bath rooms of a fanes French restaurant. Of course, the viewer's emotional reaction mav he opposite what Slack intended to get across. "In some paintings, I don't intend to convey ant particular meaning. I try to -find the meaning as I'm working on the piece. It's like the gu\ who invents chewing gum only to have everybody use it as glue. I he fellow ends up getting credit tor inventing glue. So. what the artist intends and what people take the work tor can he worlds apart. In that sense, the spectator finishes the piece by the meaning he or she brings to it. That's the creative element at work in the audience.” The images that Slack creates have that spark that makes people respond And echoes of those images linger in the mentors long alter the viewer has inched back down the winding, rutted road that leads up into the I I Valley s hills to the ait tilled frame home Sl.uk shares with his wile.

Main St. Front Royal Culpeper 636-2020 825-5600 r And oh, what tricks lookalike twins can play—fooling teachers, boy friends, strangers, grandma, even mom and dad. Being half of a set of identical twins is a half pint prankster’s dream. Twins often share a mysterious link that makes the idea of being part of a package even more attractive. Newspapers and magazines have gone through cycles of features on twins who were separated at birth and reunited years later to find they wore their hair in the same style, voted for the same candidate for public office, liked the same movies and books, picked the same names for their children and both like pizzas with an chovies, mushrooms, pepperoni and onion. There are stories of twins separated by continents and oceans who know what’s happening to their counterparts. One twin goes into labor in a hospital in Germany and her sister in Texas gets a stomach ache. A twin in California breaks a shoulder and his brother in New York wakes up with a stiff arm. What's it like to be a twin? Is it something special and a little magical or is ifno different from having a brother or sister? Sharon and Sheila Scott of Amissville are 18-year-old seniors at Rappahannock County High School. They’re identical twins but not carbon copies. Sharon has longer, loosely curled hair; Sheila's is short and tightly curled. One wears glasses, the other doesn’t. But the nose, the mouth, the eyes, the height and build belong to twins. They’ve made a deliberate attempt to be individuals rather than a duo. “We quit wearing our hair the same way in high school," Sharon said. "And we don’t have too many of the same clothes. We don’t try to dress alike." “But sometime we wear the same thing without planning to,” Sheila added. Even though they try not to look identical, people sjill have trouble telling thfm apart although the twins insist they’ve never tried to confuse anyone on purpose, not even a substitute teacher. “They know we’re different but they can’t remember which name goes with which face. Even our mother had trouble telling us apart every once in a while when we were younger,” Sharon said. Looking at baby pictures, it’s easy to understand why. One round little face topped with whispy blonde hair is the double of the other. The exact likeness is there in snapshots of the twins until they're about nine when the cheeks of one began to be just the slightest bit thinner. Both girls take the same classes in school and are interested in related career fields. Sheila wants to be a paramedic.

Currently, she’s taking a shock trauma technician’s course at Fauquier Hospital. Sharon wants to be a nurse and is now enrolled in the nursing program at Piedmont Technical Education Center. But except for their career goals, they can’t seem to agree on just how alike they are. "We don’t have the same tastes,” Sharon announced. “We like the same foods.” countered Sheila. No, we don’t!” Sharon insisted. She acknowledged, however, that both twins like the same type of boy. This time Sheila disagreed. “No, we don't but we do like the same kind of dogs—bassets and beagles—and we have the same favorite colors—blue and brown.” As for the mysterious psychic bond that supposed to connect so many twins, the Scott girls just laughed when asked if. they shared any extra sensory perceptions. "We think a lot a like.” thev answered in unison. “That's all. We’ll start to say the same thing at the same time,” Sharon added. “We’ve gotten the same questions wrong on tests in school and our wrong answers have been the same.” “And we don’t cheat!” Sheila emphasized. “We even sit on opposite sides of the room,” Sharon added. Sheila and Sharon like being twins. “We help each other out a lot. And it’s nice if we both can’t go somewhere. The other can and then come back and tell what happened, especially at school,” Sheila said. Twins run in the Scott family. On their mother’s side, a grandmother had several sets and two aunts produced double babies. Are they looking forward to having twins themselves? “No!!!” was the emphatic answer. “Not girls,” Sheila said, weakening a little. “Maybe 1 wouldn’t njind having twin boys." “I almost fainted when the doctor told me he could hear two heartbeats,” recalled Mrs. Scott, adding that her husband had helped out a lot with the double duties when the twins were small. Actually, Mrs. Scott might as well have had triplets. Seventeen months after Sheila and Sharon were born, she had another daughter, Patricia. “When the doctor told me I was pregnant, I said ‘Oh Lord, don't let it be twins!’ ” she added with a chuckle. Dee Welch and Karen Welch Williams are fraternal and not identical twins. Even so, they’ve had the same mistaken identity problems as identical sets face. “Our sister Tracy was the only one who could always tell us apart,” Karen said. “Upside down, backwards, any way at all. she always knew which was which.” “Our mom would get us confused and Dad was the worst. “He'd say ‘Dee, Karen—which ever one you are!’ ” Dee laughed. "1 had a mole on my hand and that was the only way Dad could tell us apart. But it went away when I was two,” Karen added. “In our baby pictures. Mom still can’t tell us apart.” Karen and Dee are the only twins in the family on either their mother’s or their father’s side. The 20-year-old graduates of Rappahannock County High School quit dressing the same in fifth grade. "It got too expensive!” Dee joked. They wear their 'hair iif different styles now and point out how their faces are shaped differentlyLike the Scott twins, their career goals are parallel. Karen has worked at Rappahannock National Bank for almost three years and is interested in public relations. Dee originally attended airline school. “I wanted to be a stewardess but I think I’d rather stay on the ground,” she joked. She recently switched her professional orientation towards banking and now works as a teller in Front Royal. Both chimed in together that their professional futures lay “with the public”. They often come out with the same remark simultaneously, the twins acknowledged. “I’ll think of saying something (Continued on Page 10) DOUBLE BRIGHT—RCHS seniors Sharon (seated) and Sheila Scott are both members of the Honor Society. — Rappahannock New# Photo/Lorrip Young DOUBLE BEAUTY—Twins Dee Welch (right) and Karen Welch Williams gave even their parents fits at telling them apart when the two were little girls.

Jl _ KtALTO* RE-ROOFING NOT FOR AMATEURS For a long time, the slogan of REALTORS has been: “Under all is land." Just as important, is the phrase tor home ownership referred to as "Roof over your head". You are more apt to have problems with the latter. Re-roofing is no job tor an amateur. It may look simple to the uninitiated, but re-roofing involves judgment that calls for more than lining up shingles and nailing them dow n. If you're not sure of what you’re doing, it can result in wasted materials and effort. A homeowner mas discover that an amateur job costs more than a professional one because a bungled job may have ruined the materials and have to be redone by an expert using new materials. Re-roofing also involves other considerations - whether to tear off the old roofing material or apply a new roof over the old one. Also, there is a very important element ot safety. For the amateur roofer, no job around the house hurts more than falling off a roof. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate, please phone or drop in at EILEEN M. DAY.

EMTs Graduate Frank Huff Jr. and Kenny Pullen, both members of the Flint Hill Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad. conducted an emergency medical training (EMT) class at the Flint Hill fire hall in which the trainees achieved an impressive 92 percent certification rate. The class took place on Monday and Thursday evenings from 7 to 10 p.m. Although the state requires only 81 hours of study, the 3S students who took the course put in over 100. The extra time paid off, however, as 34 of the 37 who took final examinations passed and are now certified EMT technicians. A majority of the students taking the course were from Rappahannock County, according to Huff. The class included twc Saturdays with stints of t hours plus another class ir the emergency room ai Warren Memorial Hospital. Huff felt that the high passage rate was due “tc good students and we felt we taught a good class." The; knew from the Stat« Emergency Medical Service; Board that there had been : large amount of failures ir recent EMT courses so thej felt it was imperative to push the students to reach a high certification rate. Two new instructors, Larry Genebacf and Sherrie Hamill, assisted Huff and Pullen with the final testing. These twc instructors will be teaching the next course offered ai Fauquier Hospital. Huff wished to thank botf Settle's Garage of Flint Hil and Hushel Settle o: Castleton for the use of theii cars for practical testing. The next EMT class will b< offered at Fauquier Hospita starting on Thursday, June 3 from 9-12 a.m. There are i spaces left open in this 25 person class for anyone wh< is interested in taking th< course.

Reckless Driving Charge Reduced By I.ORKIK YOUNG Rappahannock Vhs S|N*rial W rilcr In General District Court on Tuesday, Judge John Alexander reduced a charge of reckless driving lodged against Shelly Jo Wolfe of Sperryville to improper driving after listening to her account of a two-car accident which occured on May 12. According to testimony offered at the June 1 hearing, Wolfe was heading east on Route 211 when she struck the rear of a car driven by Joan Lynne Jenkins which was stopped to make a lefthand turn onto Route 612. Wolfe’s speed was estimated at between 50-55 m.p.h. upon impact. Her tires left skid marks of 103 feet and pushed the Jenkin’s vehicle 24 feet down the road. According to police testimony, the equipment was examined on both cars and found to be operable at the time of the collision. Wolfe’s car sustained $1,800 worth of damages and Jenkins' vehicle had $800 in damages. It was brought to the court's attention that later reports on damage to the Jenkins automobile described it as “totaled." Both cars were insured. Jenkins testified that Wolfe's vehicle was several hundred feet behind her when she activated her turn signal. "How can you see in feet? 1 don’t see in feet!” the defendant questioned. Jenkins s replied that she had estimated distance by using a tree as a landmark. "Reckless driving is a serious charge intended for someone traveling at a high rate of speed without regard for property or life," Wolfe argued. She maintained that Jenkins had not given adequate signal warning for the turn she was making. Finding Wolfe guilty of the lesser charge of improper driving, Judge Alexander assessed a $25 fine and court costs. Two charges involving Virginia’s Alcohol Safety Action program (VASAP) were dealt with quickly as the Judge continued James C. Jenkins’ probation for another six months because of his unsatisfactory VASAP report. "You are supposed to walk a chalk line while on probation and have no violations of any sort," Alexander told the defendant. After successfully completing VASAP, Wayne Allen Atkins of Sperryville had charges of driving under the influence reduced to improper driving. Judge Alexander levied a $25 fine plus court costs on the Sperryville man. He also gave bofh defendants a general warning that they had better be more careful after July 1 when tougher drunk driving laws passed by the last session of Virginia’s General Assembly take effect. After that date, charges such as those lodged against the two men will not be reduced, the Judge noted. Other action in cases settled in General District Court on Tuesday and penalties levied included: —Andrew Mclver Barr. Alexandria, speeding 71-55. $32 fine. $18 costs. —Jay Scott Chaffee. Washington, defective equipment. $15 fine. $18 costs. —Robert Paul Jones.

Landowners Reforest 70 Acres By BUCK KLINE (-ounty himlrr Nearly 50.000 seedlings of various species were planted in Rappahannock county this spring. In terms of acres planted, this amounts to approximately 70 acres. White pine was the top species with 43,000 put in the ground. Other species planted in fewer numbers included Norway spruce, Scotch pine, loblolly pine, black walnut, Virginia pine and autumn olive. The seedlings were planted for a variety of purposes which include supply of forest products, Christmas tree production, erosion control, improvement of wildlife habitat and erection of windbreaks. About 35 acres were planted for forest products and 20 acres for Christmas trees. Reforestration efforts such as those made in Rappahannock County this year are needed if the nation is to meet future timber demands. Old growth forests of the western states are rapidly being cutover. Therefore, a heavier burden to supply the nation’s timber will be placed on the southeastern states. To encourage the much needed reforestation, the state of Virginia offers the “Reforestation of Timberlands” cost-share program to assist landowners in planting idle or cutover land. Participants in the program receive a reimbursement of 60 percent of their planting costs (up to $80 per acre). To be eligible the landowner must plant three or more acres. The Virginia Division of Forestry is now accepting applications for the cost-share program for the planting season o spring 1983. Demands for thi cost-share funds are high Therefore, interested landowners should sign up now Anyone interested should cal. the Virginia Division ol Forestry office in Madison (948-5341) or Clifton “Tippy” Jenkins, Chief Forest Warden for Rappahannock County (987-8837).

LINDA THORNTON Executive Director Con Artists Are Back Again Each year the warning goes out and each year reports are received by the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services that the warnings are ignored by consumers seeking that hoped-for bargain. This year it will probably happen again. The itinerant painter, roofer, asphalt paver or home improvement crew will drive up in a shiny new truck with out-of-state tags and offer to do the work. They are lo*ig gone when you discover thfeir work is far from satisfactory. Harry K. Rust, supervisor of VDACS Paint Section notes that over the years the itinerant worker has developed a number of techniques designed to confuse the would-be consumer. One, of course, is to drive a new truck giving the outward appearance of a well-run business. Another is to set up an answering service so the business seems to have a local flavor. Although these con artists began by taking advantage of people in the rural areas, the suburbs and even the city are not immune to their tactics. As the result of their painting work, the Virginia Paint Law was amended a few years ago so that all spray painting contractors were required to have a license unless they have had a business address in the state for a period of one year. Rust notes that most reports of these type of operators are that they have out-of-state tags so the first thing to check would be the business license. If they have no state license and claim one year service, contact the local Chamber of Commerce or Better Business Bureau and check it out. He also offers this general advice: — Deal with a local contractor and preferably with one who is known to be good. Have all details of the job specified in writing, including the exact type of paint, or materials and what the contractor will do. —Never pay in advance. See if the contractor will agree to a 30-day credit plan. If he is reluctant to accept such an agreement, chances are that they may not be around if trouble develops after the job is completed. —Try to be around to inspect the work while it’s in progress to see that the contractor is conforming to the agreement. —If there is any doubt, check it out first. Legitimate painters and home improvement contractors won’t mind and consumers can be assured of getting the job they pay for.

The Democrats will gather in the Roanoke Civic Center, the GOP in the Richmond Coliseum. It will be the first time in the history of the state, so far as we can discover, that the two parties have held their conventions at the same time. The main task facing both is nomination of a candidate for the U.S. Senate to succeed retiring Harry F. Byrd, Jr., and each party is approaching this task in a somewhat grumpy mood. For the Democrats the degree of grnmpiness is greater; for the Republicans it is less. Coming down to the convention wire, the Democrats are said to be in a state of disarray. But this subsumes the party reached this condition from a previous state of array, if there is such a thing. The last time the Democrats enjoyed a period of non-disarray was before the 1966 primary, but when the polls closed on that tumultous election evening, disarray set in. Since then it has been the party’s constant companion and, in a sense, its guiding light. Indeed, disarray has become the Democrat’s normal condition. They would not know how to act without it. Buie Problem Of course, with the convention only a few days away, they have had a rather basic problem. Since the withdrawal of Del. Owen Pickett from the race three weeks ago, they had not been able to find anyone who was willing to seek the nomination. In recent days, however, several candidates have surfaced who are either declared or willing to be drafted, and from among this number, one must conclude, a nominee will emerge. At midweek the declared list included state Sen. Virgil Goode of Rocky Mount, Fairfax Commonwealth’s Attorney Robert Horan and Del. Floyd Bagley of Prince William. Almost declared or available for a draft were former Attorney General Andrew Miller, state Secretary of Human Recourses Joe Fisher, retired Lt. Gen. Samuel V. Wilson of Rice and Seventh District Party Chairman George Gilliam of Charlottesville. This group probably should include Sen. L. Douglas Wilder of Richmond as well as Del. Norman Sisisky of Petersburg and Lt. Gov. Dick Davis. Del. Sisisky is presently a Democratic candidate for the Fourth District Congressional seat and Mr. Davis had removed himself from the race. Late in the week, however, he indicated that under certain conditions, he might still be available for the nomination. Others may follow, and the categorical listings above may change before this reaches print. Republicans Settled The Republicans, on the other hand, have presumably settled on a candidate. He is First District Congressman Paul Trible, who apparently will have no opposition for , the nomination at the GOP convention. Rep. Trible is 35, bright, ambitious and full of zeal for his undertaking. He has been running unofficially for the Senate for nearly two years. Still, some of the Republicans - and many independent conservatives - are a mite grumpy about Rep. Trible. His critics regard him as a little too young, too ambitious and over-zealous. But more important, they harbor the brooding suspicion which the candidate denies - that if Sen. Byrd had not stepped down, the youthful Congressman was gearing up to oppose him anyway. Mortal Sin This, or even the thought of it, would have been a mortal sin in the eyes of Virginia conservatives and even the suspicion of it has served to tighten conservative purse strings in some quarters. Indeed, there was an unconfirmed rumor bobbing around last week that conservatives were so upset with both parties that some were urging Sen. Byrd to reconsider his decision to retire. That possibility has never been completely ruled out by Capitol observers. In truth, both parties will be going to their conventions a bit frayed around the fringes — the Democrats on their left, the Republicans on their right. But the chances are when the oratory of the coming weekend is over, history will little note nor long remember the Democrats’ fractious road to Roanoke or, even less, the Republicans’ silent spring.

Panther Tales By RICHIE BURKE and LORI FRYE With school winding down to a close, RCHS held its annual awards assembly last Thursday. A long list of students was recognized for their endeavors in both athletic and academic fields. In the area of academics, 15 teachers presented awards to the students in their classes who demonstrated outstanding achievement. An honor which we feel deserves special mention is the geometry award given by Mr. Wayne Leavell to Victor Lagman. Victor was presented with a framed golden rectangle, a geometric figure he drew as a project for geometry class. Students in Mr. Leavell’s geometry classes donated the frame. Victor’s project was rated as "outstanding” and surpassed all others" in artistry, according to Mr. Leavell. Other awards went to Jeff Fudd as top guitarist in Mrs. Judy Bomberger’s class and to Tammy Armentrout who was given a framed plaque for her dedication to the senior play. Ginger Eidson received recognition from Ms. Valerie Gehringer for her hard work on preparations for the Junior-Senior Prom. Mrs. Betty Wood presented Gwen Jordan with an award for her unwaning determination to excel in home economics. U. S. history awards went to Cathy Atkins, Victor Lagman, Kristi Johnson and Patricia Scott. Sharon Scott, salutatorian for the class of 1982, earned the achievement award in American government. Honors for highest academic averages in business courses were won by Brian Barnes, Beverly Settle and Janet Smoot in general business, Lavonne Adkins in recordkeeping and Lori Rutherford and Cindy Weaver in consumer math. Business awards also went to Terry Tylek, Chuck Stephenson and Amanda Magee in Typing I, Lorraine Foster and Maxie Clark in Typing II, Cindy Weaver and Tammy North in Shorthand I, Maxie Clark and Donna Knight in Shorthand II and Bonita Gatewood and Gail Wines in Office Practice. Laura Adams and James Dennis posted the highest averages in ninth grade English. Tessie Benkahla and David Timbers won the award for most improved students in that class. [pI’III.SAl?

Athletic Award* Letters were awarded to members of the varsity baseball and track teams. To earn a letter in track, a participant must attend a designated number of practices, average two points per meet and demonstrate high levels of sportsmanship. A total of 26 students earned track letters, winged-foot pins or bat pins. First-time letterwomen included Katherine Davis (440 and 880 relay, 100 yard dash and long jump), Melissa "Mo” Turner (shot put). Kelly Bristol (880 run) and Renee Ellis and Rhonda Jenkins (both in mile run). The boys track team had nine first-time lettermen: Carl Frye (880 relay and high jump), Jeff Porter (880 relay and 100 yard dash), Glenn Fletcher (880 relay, 220 and 100 yard dashes), Edward Summers (220 and 100 yard dashes), Jimmie Freeman (330 intermediate and 100 yard high hurdles), Ronnie Atkins (one and two mile runs), Chris Caperton (440 run and mile relay), Larry Sisk (880 run and mile relay) and Robert Starks (440 run, 220 dash and mile relay). All the above mentioned athletes had an outstanding season. Teachers Honored Several teachers were also presented awards. Mr. James Dennis, the industrial arts teacher, was recognized for his outstanding assistance with prom decorations. Seniors Bonita Gatewood, Terry Williams and Mary Jordan gave a special award for help received during the school year to three special teachers: Ms. Mildred Stephens, Ms. Mary Anne Biggs and Ms. Sally Bristol. The three received red rose corsages. Two other fine people were recognized for dedication and assistance provided to students. Miss Jeanne Griffin was given a potted plant by the senior class for her help as class sponsor. All the seniors feel that this was a richly deserved honor. Thanks To Wingfield The last award of the day was presented by SCA president Carolyn Butler on behalf of the entire student body to Mr. Dennis Wingfield, the man we think has done more than any other person in terms of providing dedication, discipline and cooperation. The plaque, awarded along with a standing ovation from the students assembled in the auditorium, thanks Mr. Wingfield for his 16 years of service as RCHS principal. More Signs Of Spring Another sign of spring and the approaching end of school was th? annual visit recently to the high school by up-coming eighth graders. These students were taken into classes and shown different areas around the school by four senior guides. The students were given the opportunity to ask questions about their schedules at the end of the tour. The tour was a success, thanks to the efforts of guidance counselor James Futrell, Ms. Mary Anne Biggs and assistant principal John Toth. Last Wednesday, the National Honor Society held its ceremony for induction of new members. Students who wish to be considered as candidates for the Honor Society must submit applications to a panel of teachers for review. SS Number A Must Many young people in the Culpeper area are planning to take their job after school is out, and one of the most important things they have to do is to get a Social Security number, Bruce A. Hundley, Social Security manager in Culpeper said recently. Most employees will not hire a person unless he or she has a Social Security number. Therefore, Hundley said, it is important to have a number before applying for a job. A person must submit documentary evidence of his or her age, identity, and citizenship or immigration status. A person 18 or older must apply in person. The best evidence of age and citizenship is a birth or baptismal record made before the person’s fifth birthday. Immigration and Naturalization Service documents can be used to show immigration status. Examples of evidence of identity include a driver’s license, school ID card, voter’s registration, school record, report card, insurance policy, membership card in youth organization, or any other document giving identifying data such as physical description, photograph, or signature. The Culpeper Social Security office is located at 806 N. Main Street and the telephone number is 8253500. — Rappahannock New* Photo/D.

Campers Enter Computer Age Summer camps have come a long way since the days when kids loaded up in surplus school buses and survived a two or three week sentence at Camp Tomahawk. Through the efforts of Norman Dodl, professor of curriculum and instruction (C&I), and John Burton, assistant professor of C&I, the first Virginia Tech Computer Camp will be held this summer. The camp is described as an intensive, hands-on experience which will offer the camper both computer instruction and the opportunity to enjoy recreational activities on campus and in the surrounding countryside. Classroom instruction will provide computer novices with fundamentals of computer operation and BASIC programming skills More experienced campers and novices who progress quickly will have the opportunity to learn a second computer language and apply advanced BASIC programming techniques to their own projects. Field trips to mainframe computer facilities on campus and in local businesses and industry will be featured. All campers will have an opportunity to explore the use of wood processing and communications applications for the microcomputer. Three two-week camp sessions are being offered. The first session is from July 4 through July 16. Session II begins July 18 and ends July 30. The final session begins August 1 and concludes August 13. The camp is for boys and girls ages, 10-16.

House Plants Love Outdoors This time of year ever^ gardener thinks how both indoor plants and the house would benefit from a short separation. Moving the house plants outside can, in fact, be a distinct benefit to both the home gardeners and the plants. Watering, fertilizing and treating plants for insects are much easier when conducted outdoors where strange smells and chemicals are less concern. The winter’s accumulation of dust will be washed from the leaves by warm rains and the added light will enhance growth and restore vigor. There are a few precautions to be taken if the plant is to adjust to the outside. First, make sure that the last of the cold temperatures has passed. Even a temperature of 50 degrees Fahrenheit can have detrimental effects on some of the more tropical house plants. Avoid sun-burning the foliage by moving the plants gradually from the relative darkness of the house to their summer locations. Start by putting them in a wellshaded location, then progressing to increasingly lighted areas. Except for cactus and a few other succulent plants, it is a gpod idea to put the plants in a location where they get full sunlight less than 50 percent of the day. If the pots are to be set directly on the ground, line the drain holes with a screen or net before moving outside. This will reduce the number + + + + When fools have nothing to talk about they talk about the weather. —German Proverb of slugs and other unwelcome creatures which might invade the pot. Small Springs Can Help “When the summer months get hot and dry. and the water supply gets low, farmers want to collect all the seepage they can get for their livestock." says John Jeffries, Soil Conservation Technician from the Culpeper SCS office. One possible solution, if there is an adequate site and a dependable water supply, is a spring development. Through the assistance of the Soil Conservation Service, a marginally productive spring or wet spot can be turned into a clean dependable supply of w ater. Thomas Massie, a beef farmer at Masste s Corner, developed a water supply from a spring on his farm. Besides providing a dependable water supply to Massie's livestock, the spring development also dried up a wet area that presented problems to him from time to time and was a possible hazard to his livestock during the winter months. When properly installed and maintained, it can give years of service. A typical spring development consists of drain tile, gravel, a collection box. pipe from the collection box to the trough and a cut-off wall (consisting of good clay material or concrete). The cost may range from $800 to $1200. As an added incentive. cost-share assistance may be available through the ASCS Office. Wood’s Heart Bequest Fails (Continued from Page 1) hearings on the case showed that the other claiments (MCV and UVa) also engage in heart research. Ralph Deacon, president of Central Fidelity Bank in Culpeper, testified over objections at a February, 1981, hearing on Mrs. Wood's intentions regarding her estate. He told the court that "Her concerns were the same as Gene’s (Robert Eugene Wood’s), yes. She expressed that they had left it half to the heart fund, half to the cancer fund, and, again they were concerned about the organization. They both didn't care too much for welfare and for the handouts and so on, and they were afraid that, in their words, that it would go to New York and the blacks would get it.” Basing his decision on legal precedents set out in detail in the order, Judge Kobertson regrettably concluded that the court couldn’t rely on Deacon’s testimony to resolve the uncertainty about Mrs. Wood’s intentions. Therefore, he ruled, the bequest of half the estate for heart research must fail for indefinite ness. As a result, Robertson directed that the money should go to the heirs. The other half of the approximately $1.7 million estate left by Mrs. Wood will go to the Virginia Division of the American Cancer Society, according to the judge’s order. the Heart Association describes itself as THE state of Virginia organization or foundation engaged in heart research on ailments of the heart and heart trouble, Robertson continued.

Slack’s Art Is Multi-Faceted (Continued from Page 1) industrial yet rural area of coal mines, chemical plants “and mountains that spring up like dinosaurs.” He began painting and drawing as a child. “1 felt like I was blind the whole time I was growing up, that I didn’t really see. I started drawing so I could see the world better.” He studied art at the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, D.C., and at the Art Student’s League in New York. “But I wanted to get out of the city. I needed a lot of space to do art and it’s so beautiful here,” he said, explaining his move to Rappahannock County seven years ago. “It’s almost too beautiful. I can be painting inside the house and go outside to walk around for a break. It’s sooo beautiful that what i’ve done pales by comparison.” Slack works at construction to support himself, gutting old houses and putting up dry wall in the first step of restoration. He’s taken that sweaty, dusty labor and turned it into art, using pieces of old walls as the base for mixed media expression. “I found beauty there,” Slack says of the hours and hours he’s spent tearing down old plaster and boards. “I’ve tried to capture it in my work, to answer the questions of who lived there and what’s the history behind an old house. The pieces of the walls are fragments of the real world. Then I put something in to subvert that realism. But it’s hard to balance. I don’t know where these things are going to go when I start,” he said of the “pieces of wall” art waiting in the old parlor to be hung at the gallery for the Sunday opening. The images created through this new art form are stark, even depressing, capturing the hopelessness of a South American slum or the loneliness of an abandoned wreck of a house with an old mattress left in its back room, a resting place now for stray dogs or traveling hobos. Rex Slack works in the more traditional mode as well, painting a crowd at a bus station or two boys trudging down a country lane. Most of his paintings capture personnal images. One of 14 children, Rex puts his brothers as remembered from childhood or as held in time by a family snapshot into his pieces. “I love r $50 WINNER (of Morchandloo) Front Royal — Arvllla Downa Mt.

One of his most striking paintings is a study in greys and blacks of a train wreck in a snowfall. 1^ was inspired by a photograph that appeared on the front page of a West Virginia newspaper on the day that his brother died. Other examples of Slack's art are more light-hearted. A copy of Dashiell Hammett’s “A Man Called Spade” begs to be picked up and thumbed museums. So I made the cans as a symbol of that idea, a relic or icon. It has the effect of an enigma for me. The wall fragments are extensions of that same idea—they’re like artifacts.” When Rex read in the Rappahannock News of the opening of a gallery in the town of Washington, he contacted owners Dan Lewis and Sarah Adams about an exhibit. Their reaction after REX SLACK’S art covers the spectrum from avant garde creations built around fragments of old walls to the traditional. This water color is a memory of his brothers walking home towards the West Virginia mountains that “spring up like dinosours.” through only to have the would-be reader find that it’s a painted, wooden replica of the old mystery thriller. “I’ve always wanted art to be more fun and play and not so deadly serious,” he explained. ‘‘You have more options for fun when you mix media...I’d like to concentrate more on paintings but combine media so that my paintings are more physical.” In some pieces. Slack is trying to get a message across—just a single message that isn't supposed to be left open for the viewer to interpret. He has, for instance, framed a couple of rusty tin cans suspended halfway through a backdrop square of rusty metal. “When I saw some rusted cans, an idea was sparked: when people dig everything up in a thousand years, it will be the rusted hulks of washing machines and automobiles that will define our culture and not the art that hangs in seeing Slack’s work was immediate and enthusiastic. Yes, they would be thrilled to schedule a showing. Neither is cautious in theirw praise. Slack’s paintings and miniatures, his mixed media wall fragments “turn on everybody who sees them,” Sarah reports. “Terrific.... great.... haunting,” are a few of the adjectives Dan uses in describing the 24 pieces that will hang in the Middle Street Gallery’s exhibit that begins Sunday, June 6, and continues through July 2. But despite the positive reaction from everyone who views his creations, Rex Slack is still not comfortable with the artist label. “I’m not sure if I think of myself as an artist—My work is more personal and less art theory. I prefer the word “painter." Somehow, it’s more comfortable.” But whether he’s a painter or an artist, the pieces that Rex Slack creates are works of art, art that finds beauty in truth, art that deserves the attention of the community. Nursing Students Finish Training Three Rappahannock students were among the 13 graduates who recently completed the approved basic geriatric nursing assistant training program at Piedmont Technical Education Center. Annemarie Arndt of Castleton and Carolyn Beahm and Carolyn Pullen, both of Washington, finished the eighty hour course which deals with aspects of natural aging and gives special emphasis to increasing health needs of elderly persons. The new nursing assistants were taught to help both the physician and professional nurse by performing various routine duties as assigned by members of the health team. Students learn to take temperatures, pulse, respiration and blood pressure; to help with feeding patients and to sterilize equipment. They are now prepared to be valuable assistants in hospitals, nursing homes and in private health care situations. Piedmont’s program is approved by the State of Virginia as meeting requirements for geriatric nursing assistant.

John A. Weidhaas Jr., Virginia Tech Extension entomologist, warned dogwood • lovers that preventative measures are best to fight the insect that tunnels under the bark and limits the trees’ growth. Once the borer is in under the bark and in the tree, little can be done, he said. During winter the larvae tunnels under the bark, transform to pupae and emerge as adults in the spring and summer. The peak of adult emergence seems to occur in late May and early June. The eggs are laid on the trunk or lower am os oy a wasp-like moth with yellow and black transparent wings. The newly-hatched larvae enter the trunk or limbs through injuries or rough areas on the bark. The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences faculty member said previously infected trees attract the egg-laying female moths. Protect the trunk of the tree from physical injury caused by bumping with a lawn mower, sun scald or freezing. Wrapping the trunk of dogwood seedlings with Kraft paper helps prevent injuring, especially during the first two years after planting. Further information can be obtained at the Rappahannock Extension office, 675-3619. Twins -- (Continued from Page 2) and before I can get the words out, Karen will say it first,” Dee added. They share many of the same likes and proficiencies. ‘‘We both love sports,” Karen said. “And clothes—definitely clothes,” Dee interjected. “Music too”. “And lying in the sun, especially the sun. We love the beach,” Karen added. In school, they were both “very bad in math, very bad in math,” Karen admitted, smiling and shaking her head in mock dismay. “And both really good in English and history.” They don't have any stories of psychic experiences. “The only thing unusual that ever (occured was when Karen had iher wisdom teeth cut out. My 'lower jaw ached just like it 'had been me sitting in that dentist chair.” Dee reported. “But that’s the only .psychic thing," emphasized' Karen. In a 1 ite time. Dee added. The young women like being twins. “It's definitely been a conversation piece... and you can really count on and trust your twin,” Karen said. They adopt opposite positions on the questions of whether they’d like to be the mothers of twins themselves someday. “No!” was Dee's reply. “It’s too much money and too much hassle when you have two little ones at the same time. But I wouldn’t mind twins when they got to be about eight.” Karen has no objections to twins anytime. “Mom said two were never any more trouble than one,” she recalled. They both were equally thankful they weren’t born boys. Their mother was sure she wouldn’t have girls and so when they entered the world, it was without names already waiting for them. Karen was named after a relative. "And mom got my name—Deidre—from a soap opera,” Dee admitted with a giggle. "All the other twins we know- have twin names—names that rhyme or sound the same—but Deidre and Karen aren’t anything alike,” Karen noted. “It was going to be Craig and Greg if we were boys.” “Thank God we weren’t!” Dee chimed in. Ron and Don Dougherty confused everyone when they were students at Rappahannock County High School. They look alike, walk the same way, talk alike, even their names sound the same. Both just finished their freshman year at Bridgewater College and will spend the summer working in Colorado at a French restaurant, a job they qualified for after twoand-a-half years of “bussing” at The Inn at Little Washington. Shy and quiet (at least with a stranger conducting an interview), both are a little reticent to talk about being a twin. Don said he likes it. "Sometimes it’s alright,” his sibling corrected. They are often confused for each other. “It happens all the time and it gets irritating,” Don said. "We try to be as different as possible,” added Ron. They don’t play tricks on the unsuspecting non-twin world by posing as each other. In fact, they could remember only one instance when they'd tried that sort of prank. They got caught which might be why they never tried it again. “We switched classes in second grhde but the teacher knew right away 'cause we forgot to change workbooks,” Don admitted ruefully. The two young men share an academic strength in science and both plan to pursue careers related to that field—Don in veterinary medicine and Ron in chemistry. They likewise share similar interests in off-school hours. Both like hiking, fishing and other outdoor “stuff” and both are dedicated runners. “He’s a little better in cross country than I am,” Don acknowledged. “You know, that’s the first time he’s ever admitted it!” joked his twin. Rapp Chats By RAPOVI IINGS '1*1 Kxlf-n^inn \gt-nl 'xriruliurr Weather continues to have a big impact on country living. Winter just wouldn’t let go and hung on well into spring. Pasture and haygrasses got off to a slow start. Cattle were late being turned out to pasture. When warm weather finally arrived, the almost daily winds dried the top soil moisture. The rains that wouldn't shut off long enough in March and early April to allow farmers to seed spring oats, grass and clover, quit when the orchard grass and tall fescus hay needed a good soaking. As a result, many of the farmers 1 have visited are estimating tall grass hay yields will be down 30 percent or more. Once these grasses produce heads, their feeding value decreases rapidly and very little additional growth occurs until they are cut. Harvested fields should be top dressed with 50-60 lbs. of nitrogen per acre to promote regrowth for high yield second cuttings. Phosphate and potash should be added as needed. The key to high yielding second cuttings is to remove the first cutting early so the regrowth can take advantage of the cool temperatures and ample rains hoped for before July and August - and top dress. Sheep Producers: If you have not already heard by now, the Wool Sale in Virginia which was scheduled for May 13 was potponed. The wool prices took a drastic drop the week before' to about 40 cents for medium clear woold. Virginia wool will be offered for sale by the pool by September 16. If the wool prices increase significantly before then, a sale will be arranged before that. There w ill be no wool pool in June. In Census Plans for the 1982 Census of Agriculture are on schedule, according to Bruce Chapman, Director of the Commerce Department’s Census Bureau. The census, to be taken starting next January, will provide basic information measuring the trends in number of farms, commodity production, land use, and income levels in agriculture. Chapman indicated that the rapid changes occurring in agriculture due to the declining farm income situation, along with continuing high interest rates, makes the information from the agriculture census extremely important to the nation's policymakers as well as farmers themselves. Chapman points out that complete and accurate responses by farmers will ensure a high quality picture of the agriculture industry to everyone’s benefit.

"2 .A V Lower Downpayments Veterans Administrationguaranteed Graduated Payment Mortgages are now available with lower downpayments for new home purchases, the VA announced recently. The new program is part of the Veterans’ Disability Compensation, Housing, and Memorial Benefits Amendments passed by Congress last year. Under the GPM, monthly payments are lower for the first few years than the corresponding monthly payments on a traditional mortgage for the same amount. In a GPM mortgage, a portion of the interest due on the loan each month is deferred and added to the principal balance of the loan. This is done during the early years. In a traditional mortgage, all the interest and a portion of the principal are scheduled to be paid each month.

New Brucellosis Options Considered The Virginia Board of Agriculture and Consumer Services soon will consider several new proposals designed to eliminate brucellosis or Bang’s disease from Virginia’s beef and dairy industries by 1984, according to Dr. A. J. Roth of the Virginia State Veterinarian's Office. During a recent meeting at the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine, veterinarians Roth and Dr. Tom Bibb, a farm clinician with the Ambulatory Health Service of the College of Veterinary Medicine, outlined several new brucellosis control options to be presented to the board. Roth is past chairman of the Nationaf Brucellosis Control Committee of the U. S. Animal Health I Pick Your Own STRAWBERRIES You can’t judge a strawberry by its color... unless you pick it yourself! Because store bought strawberries are never picked ripe. And while they may turn red in the darkness of a cross-country crate. . . they never turn sweeter than the day they were picked!

Bibb and Roth are also members of the state Brucellosis Control Committee. As of May 1, 1982, the U. S. Department of Agriculture assigned a brucellosis classification to each state according to the prevalence of the disease in the state’s beef and dairy cattle herds. Maryland is one of 10 states in the “Class Free” category. Virginia, with a relatively low incidence of the disease, falls into Class A. The other categories, with increased incidence of brucellosis, are Classes B and C. Both states now must determine what, if any, limitations will be placed on movement of cattle within and out of the state, Roth explained. "Our goal in Virginia is to attain Class Free status within two years," said Bibb. "What we must do to attain the Class Free status is to eliminate brucellosis from the 25 known infected herds in the state and then make sure no Virginia producer buys replacement stock from an infected or exposed herd.” ‘‘Virginia will have to eradicate brucellosis completely and then demonstrate that no new cases have entered the state tor a minimum of one full year before this state can be called Class Free,” he said. ‘‘The incubation period—that is, the time from exposure to the Brucella abortus organism until the exposed animal develops the disease—can be as much as 270 days,” Bibb said. “Therefore, a single negative brucellosis test may not mean that the animal is brucellosisfree," he said. Virginia already requires registration of cattle dealers. This enables regulatory personnel of the state Veterinarian's Office to trace animals that develop brucellosis back to the herd of origin, Roth explained. The new state brucellosis classification requires Virginia to go one step further by establishing a permit system to meet the requirements of the new uniform methods and rules established by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. “We have never required a permit, but we must now do so. Virginia only stands to lose if we don’t become more aggressive about brucellosis eradication,” Roth said. Among the other brucellosis eradication measures the state will employ to achieve Class Free status are dealer registration; surveillance of all cattle movement; livestock market testing; change of ownership testing; area testing; and progressive brucellosis education programs. “Under the new state brucellosis classification, Virginia will probably be much more restrictive on the movement of cattle than the federal government requires,” said Roth, “but not without good reason. Brucellosis costs this state’s beef and dairy industries millions of dollars every year. "With fpH pra 1 proposals to cut back on the amount of federal dollars spent for brucellosis eradication, this state is going to have to be very aggressive while money is still available. Otherwise, the burden of the expenses now shared by the state and federal governments is going to fall to the producers.” “These are tough recommendations we're suggesting for Virginia," Roth said, “but they could result in savings of millions of dollars both for the producers and for the consumers of beef and dairy products.” “Until we get these new regulations in line," Bibb said, “the best recommendation we can make to this state’s producers is to make sure they buy only vaccinated replacement heifers from certified free herds.” Industry leaders, regulatory officials, the Cooperative Extension Service, the College of Veterinary Medicine, and the state's practicing veterinarians are working toward achieving 100 percent calfhood vaccination of all breeding stock in Virginia's 39,000 herds,” Bibb said. “In 1980, less than 25 percent of all replacement heifer calves were vaccinated. In 1981, we reached 50 percent. We are hoping to be considerably higher than that figure this year," he added. r | CUSTOM COUNTRY HOMES I Custom designed Homes, f Decks and Additions built by David Batchelder Call tor an appointment or dimtiona to aae (Ktm at 1 ES X lor uk in AmkavOk.

It’s hard to improve upon strawberries eaten plain or with cream, but by your sixth or seventh quart you may want a little variety. First, some history: Many years ago the settlers, coming ashore in Massachusetts, found strawberries growing bountifully along the Eastern Seaboard and in the notheastern part, of the continent. Moreover, the Indians were actually cultivating the strawberry in 1643. It is thought that the modern strawberry is a distant cousin of the Chilean strawberry. The strawberry is indigenous to the climates and soil types of Virginia. They grow here in great abundance from the Eastern Shore to the Blue Ridge Mountains. Large strawberries are often called the choicest for eating. However, size is not a true sign of sweetness. Other tips to keep in mind when selecting and storing strawberries are: —The “cap” of a strawberry is a sign of maturity. —For the best quality and taste, selct berries that are firm, plump and full-colored for the variety. —Nutritionally, strawberries are low in calories and very high in vitamin C and other minerals. —Eaten raw, strawberries are an important detergent fruit, aiding in dental health.

To get these benefits, though property owners just can't talk about soil conservation. They have to put the practices into effect on their land. Applying conservation practices will not only help farmers work more marginal pieces of land where erosion may have been a problem in the past but may also in crease yields on existing cropland. Practices such as diversions, stripcropping, no-till, grassed waterways and animal waste systems can Fit easily and painlessly into an existing operation when properly planned.
