It includes the first capital improvements funding in the town’s history, as well as a vastly increased amount for administration and services. The capital improvements fund, which totals $24,000, includes $16,000 earmarked for the upgrade of the town’s water system. That will cover the payment for the loan which the town hopes to secure to fund the water project. Other items proposed for the capital improvements fund included the purchase of new street lights, new storm drains and rebuilding sidewalks on Main and Gay Sts. Mayor Dean Morehouse noted that the Virginia Department of Transportation will fund some portion of the sidewalk improvements, but that the town must allocate some money to cover its share. The capital improvements fund, however, does not include specific dollar fig ures for items other than the water system. That $16,000 allocation, assuming that the project’s funding is approved, will remain a constant in the town’s budget for the life of the note. Besides the allocation for the water project, “it’s ridiculous,” Treasurer Brad Fisher said, “to allocate money for specificitems without an overall (capital improvements) plan.” Councilman William Wickens replied, however, “this is not an authorization to spend the money. It’s not a situation of use it or lose it.” That capital improvements fund represents 31 percent of the total budget. No other items were approved by the council for expenditures from that fund. Mr. Wickens questioned the category of administration, which at $15,340 represents 20 percent of the total budget. He pointed out that in fiscal 1987 the figure was $2,500, which rose 100 percent to $5,300 last year. “I think we can exercise some restraint in this area,” he told the council. Mr. Fisher replied that the town had no paid attorney two years ago. and that along with the more extensive ordinances enacted within the past two years came additional costs to administer and enforce them. And, he said, “as more funds come in, it costs more to administer them.” Mayor Morehouse added, “and we’ve been sued twice, too.” Mr. Wickens replied, “If you tell me this is bare-bones, I will go along with that.” Other large items included in the $15,000 administration category include $2,000 for property and liability insurance, $1,500 for health insurance for the town’s employee, Ray Pullen, $1,000 for advertising of legal notices and public hearings, and $500 for office furniture and a like amount for the purchase of a computer. That equipment, Mr. Fisher said, is used by both the town for general administration and the Water Authority’s accounts. Employee expenses constitute another 28 percent of the town budget. That figure, a total of $22,310, includes Mr. Pullen’s salary, additional funds for temporary labor, overtime and social security allocations, retirement fund, and $1,000 for education and training. Mr. Fisher said that will likely be spent to train Mr. Pullen in the operation of the equipment which will be installed when the water system is refitted. Another 15 percent of the budget, totalling $11,850, is earmarked for town operations. This includes expenses for water system chemicals and lab supplies, gas, oil and maintenance, tools, including possibly the purchase of a bushhog to clear brush around the water lines, Mr. h isher said. Another $5,500 is allocated to pay the town's power bill to Potomac Edison. The balance of the budget, $1,500 Or six percent, will go toward maintenance. That includes materials (hardware, lumSee BUDGET, p. 16 Town of Washington’s 1988-89 Budget

'County reaches ‘quota9 of lottery ticket vendors Folks in Rappahannock will have at least six locations where they can try to hit the jackpot when the Virginia Lottery begins selling tickets fjys fall. According to Bill Leonard, acting supervisor of the lottery’s licensing department, six businesses have received first phase approval as ticket vendors to date, giving the county art early match for the one ticket outlet per 1,000 population which the department hopes to achieve statewide. It’s not hard for a business to qualify as a ticket outlet. It must simply be an ongoing commercial activity accessible to the public with room to sell lottery tickets and the means of ensuring security for those tickets. Any type of business can become a ticket seller. “We prefer it to be a retail-type operation,” said Mr. Leonard. He added, however, that the Attorney General’s office has ruled service clubs, fraternal orders, even municipal governments could qilalify. “But you can’t open a business just to sell lottery tickets. You can’t get a license to set up a booth to sell tickets in a parking lot or a mall. You have to be in some other already-established business.” As of last Friday, 1,678 applications had been filed to sell lottery tickets at 3,489 locations, 1,232 applicants and 2,058 locations have been given first-phase approval and 1,012 have passed site evaluations. “We hope to have 6,000 outlets approved and ready to go by the time ticket sales begin,” Mr. Leonard said. The vendors, who will keep five cents from every $1 ticket they sell, can look forward to other tangible and intangible rewards, according to the licensing supervisor. “Hopefully, if someone comes in and buys a ticket and wins $10, they’ll spend some of the $10 in the store,” said Mr. Leonard, noting that vendors will redeem tickets for $100 or less on the spot. “And the ticket sellers will also get the thrill of watching someone win. I think that would be tremendously exciting,” he added. So you think you want to sell lottery tickets? Application forms, available from the Commissioner of Revenue’s office, are filled out and submitted to Virginia Lottery offices in Richmond. Next a basic criminal background check and a credit check through the credit bureau are conducted. For a partnership, this is done for all partners; for a corporation, the officers and any holders of more than 10 percent of the company’s stock are checked. “Then for the business itself, but not for individuals, the State Department of Taxation deter mines whether taxes are up to date,” Mr. Leonard said, noting that an unfavorable report and denial of a lottery license can be appealed within a 30-day time limit. “So far, we’ve denied 42 applications (on the basis of credit, criminal, and tax records) but a lot of them have been reversed,” he added. In phase two of the licensing process, tax auditors and field officers of the Department of Taxation are doing on-site evaluations, visiting the prospective vendors to verify the information included on the application forms and checking security arrangements in particular. “They look to see that the business has a safe in Which to keep the tickets, that doors and windows have locks,” Mr. Leonard explained. Although no county business has yet been given formal second phase approval, Paul Baldwin of Baldwin’s Grocery in Washington reported that an agent from the Department of Taxation inspected his store last week and concluded “everything looks hunky-dory.” And according to Mr. Leonard, with more than 1,000 locations passing the on-site evaluation so far, this second stage of the licensing process has a failure rate of zero. For the third phase, applicants will have to meet bonding requirements, which Mr. Leonard said would probably be $5,000, and show they have an electronic transaction bank account to handle lottery fund transfers. “The vendors will have to deposit the money for the tickets in a special account, and once we’ve verified that the money has been transfered, then their tickets will be delivered,” he said. The lottery is expected to begin in mid-September, Mr. Leonard reported. Initially, gamblers will be offered only the “instant winner” or “scratch-and-win” tickets. But “sometime in 1989,” the option will be added for “on-line,” in which lottery players pick numbers and the winning combination is drawn and announced once a week, Mr. Leonard said. “Not every ‘ma and pa’ store will have on-line, because the business will need a computer terminal,” he said, adding that a decision has not been made yet on who will pay for the terminals: Virginia Lottery, the ticket vendors, or both. Larry Gray, the assistant director of Virginia Lottery, refused to estimate how much revenue will be generated by the lottery, but said a projection will be forthcoming “in a week or so” after a definite starting date for ticket sales is determined. Once the state-sponsored game of chance begins, Mr. Leonard expects a spurt of applications for ticket sales.

By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer “I’m the official Australian ambassador to the state of Mississippi - and the unofficial Australian ambassador to the rest of the country.” Tex Banes, who at age 73 is “the oldest hillbilly in Australia, and proud of it,” is once again sharing his irrepressible humor and love of life with his friend Dick Pierson and his family. Mr. Banes arrived earlier this week, and plans to stay until late June. Mr. Pierson, who lives in Amissville, played host to Mr. Banes during his last trip to the United States, in 1986. He accompanied Tex to Hilton, VA, for the annual musical gathering at the Carter Family fold in the hills of Southwestern Virginia, near the Tennessee border. And again this weekend, the Virginia hills will resound with Mr. Banes’ music. He’s off to Hilton once more for the Carter Family gathering, where he is scheduled to play Saturday evening. Tex describes his music as “hillbilly, in the tradition of Jimmy Rogers, the famous ‘singing brakeman’ from Meridian, Mississippi.” Mr. Rogers is considered, along with the Carter Family, to be one of the: founding fathers of country music.

Published by Arundel Newspapers Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation. THURSDAY, JUNE 16,1988 Editorials An urgent task At the Washington Town Council’s meeting last Wednesday, the council approved a subdivision request from Rev. Richard Scott. Nothing remarkable, except that the council was forced to attach several provisions which neither the council members, nor the applicant, wished to include. Those provisions were made necessary by the language of the ordinance, which makes certain requirements of subdividers and provides no exceptions or methods to waive them. The town’s Planning Commission agrees that work is needed on the ordinance; its chairman, William Wickens, feels that the entire ordinance must be rewritten. Whatever route the commissioners take, they need to begin their task promptly. Rev. Scott’s request, and its resolution, points out the difficulties and hardships created by poorly written or outdated ordinances. In the past, the commission has done an excellent job of writing the state-required comprehensive plan, as well as a major revision of the town’s zoning ordinances. The historic district ordinance written by the commission has also strengthened the town’s legal hand in attempting to preserve •the town’s character. These past successes make it all the more imperative that the planning commission not dawdle over revising the subdivision ordinance. < Rev. Scott’s proposal was relatively benign, and met with no real objections from either his neighbors or the members of the council. But that may not be the case with future applications. - As Mr. Wickens pointed out, there are a number of parcels of land throughout the town which could be subdivided. If they are developed by someone who does not take into account the best interests of the town, as well as his bwn, the result could be disastrous. Under the present subdivision ordinance, requirements for streets, sidewalks, curbs and gutters could leave parts of town looking like Reston transplanted. Or perhaps worse, a court challenge might overturn the fentire ordinance, leaving the developer free to do whatever be pleases, without the town having any legal recourse. That, admittedly, is a far-fetched scenario, but it’s one which we’re sure that no one wants to test. Mr. Wickens spoke of the Planning Commission having a draft ordinance ready for public hearing by the fall. We hope that the schedule can be met. The town needs the protectiort afforded by a complete set of ordinances which support and buttress each other. It’s a case of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts, and the sooner the “whole” is in place, the better. Support the volunteers “You never know when you may need them.” The phrase comes from a letter to the editor elsewhere on this page. It refers to the county’s volunteer firefighters and emergency medical personnel. The letter was written by a mother whose young child had difficulty breathing last week. Like most emergencies, it came out of the blue, with no warning. Her plight points out two important facts about life in the county. First, that the county’s volunteer fire and rescue personnel were there, ready to help, as they are every day. No matter what the weather, or what the hour, they respond as quickly as they can. Many leave their jobs, if necessary, to respond to an emergency. TTiey’re not paid for what they do, or for the hours of training they take. They’re not reimbursed for the gas they use, or the uniforms, equipment or supplies they may purchase. The volunteer fire and rescue companies are able to do the job they do because of the support of the residents of the county — and for that, they are all grateful. For the sake of everyone who lives here, and passes through, we hope that support not only continues but grows — both in donations and in those willing to give their time and energy to help. It’s not necessary to run emergency calls to be a member of one of the departments. They need help with fundraising, administrative duties and the maintenance of equipment and Commentary Rappahannock News photo/Cindy Mahan OFFICIALLY GRADUATED, Rappahannock High School’s Class of 1988 switches their tassles, symbolic of their new status. Letters to the editor Run-off and erosion are new problems To the editor: Rappahannock County has a problem which was accentuated during the week of heavy rain that occured in May: Water run-off and erosion from newly cleared land. In past times when there was only spot building and clearing of a piece of land, the water run-off and erosion weren’t much of a problem. BUT, now that there is a building boom, especially in Chester Gap, the water run-off problem has multiplied. A builder who bulldozes an acre or two of mountainside can really cause a problem for the people who live below him. They don’t want his topsoil but they are going to get it and a lot more water than they were previously used to. In areas near the cities and the Chesapeake Bay, a builder is required by law to put in straw dikes, staked filter cloth or dig a retaining pond at the low end of the area he is clearing. If he doesn’t, the Environmental Protection Agency people are all over him and the situation is corrected in a hurry. Why doesn’t Rappahannock have such an ordinance? With the increase in building all over Northern Virginia, 1 would think that such laws would be important to protect the already established citizens and taxpayers. Will everyone in the county please give our supervisors their input on this problem that is only going to get worse. MRS. WILLIAM DELASHMUTT Chester Gap Thanks, Mr. Clark To the editor: We would like to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt thanks and appreciation to John Marshall Clark for allowing the 1988 graduation party at his farm on Rt. 211, east of Sperryville. Mr. Clark graciously donated his field in addition to helping set up for the party. The turnout was tremendous and without proper parking facilities and the use of the field the party wouldn’t have been so successful. Graduation is a special time and without the help and assistance of Mr. Clark our party could not have gone on. Also a special thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Bryant Lee, Patrick Lee, Tom Lee Jr. and volunteer parents who assisted in numerous ways. ANDY BALDWIN MR. AND MRS. DANNY BALDWIN Sperryville vehicles. We urge anyone willing to undertake any of those tasks to contact their local department. We’re sure they would be happy to hear from you. The second fact is the importance for as many people as possible to be trained in basic first aid, particularly cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Luckily, that wasn’t •" pessary last week, but it’s not always the case. And, even with the quickest response time possible, there are places in the county which rescue personnel can’t reach in the four to six minutes which mean the difference between life and death to a person in cardiac arrest. A neighbor or family member trained in CPR can keep the victim alive until more help and equipment arrives. To some people from more urban areas, where fire and rescue are paid services, our volunteer system must seem antiquated and insufficient. But thanks to the community spirit of our volunteers, backed by residents who are willing to become involved in support of their efforts, it works well. There’s a young child in Flint Hill, and her family, who will happily testify to that. We hope that community spirit will continue, and that more people will realize the satisfaction which comes from helping their neighbors. The volunteers will tell you that when you feel that satisfaction, there’s no other reimbursement necessary. ‘Blue Ribbon’ journalism To the editor: All too often things of real merit go without acknowledgment. We tend to focus on negative or worrisome things and take the positive ones for granted. This has certainly been the case with the journalistic merit of the Rappahannock News. While the News was rightfully proud to announce its receipt of the honor of “National Blue Ribbon Newspaper” from the National Newspaper Foundation, not muf hoopla was elicited from your general readership. Yet, those who have marked the measured, but inspired, editorial content of the News of the last two years must be aware that the blue ribbon should be pinned to the desk of Lou Hatter. Certainly Lou has excellent editorial back-up and good writers such as Daphne Hutchinson and Theresa Reynolds to support him, but for the tough editorial policy, for editorials with substancje tempered by keen judgement, fqr continuing high calibre coverage of local government and pressing community issues, such as the landfill and the highway widening, thie credit goes to Lou Hatter. Usually I quietly read and appreciate the paper; only rarely have:I thrown a “good job” their way. However, the excellent coverage this past week of Eugene McCarthy’s announced bid for the presidency ruptured that complacency. j Lou, you and your staff at Rappahannock News wear that “bliip ribbon” well. j JAMES THOMASSOfl Washington I There when you need them irim*TT!wir; 1 U tilt? tfUItUI .

Op-Ed |Dawkins nomination highlights convention I By JOHN MAROCCHI J Rappahannock News Contributing Writer J* ROANOKE — The 1988 Convention of the ^Republican Party of Virginia was held at the £Civic Center here on Friday and Saturday, June £10 and 11. Its principal purpose was to choose a £ Republican candidate for the United States Senate seat being vacated by its occupant, Paul Triable, at the end of the current term early in 1989. >; Rappahannock County sent eight delegates |to the convention: Bob and Irma Ingle of £ Amissville, John Marocchi of Sperry ville, Walter £and Susan Longyear, Rod and Sheilah Sweet d Richard Viguerie of Washington. The convention opened Friday afternoon, une 10. That afternoon session was occupied fwith greetings and organizational work. Roanoke city and Republican Party officials welcomed the approximately 5,000 delegates, ^temporary and permanent convention officers g^ere elected, and reports submitted by the Credentials, Nominations, Resolutions and Rules ^Committees were reviewed and approved. * The final item and highlight of the first day’s greeting was a rousing speech by Republican ^Congressman Donald E. (Buzz) Lukens of Ohio. Friday evening the second annual John Dal£ton Awards Dinner, honoring the late Governor ■and his service to the state and party, was held at the Civic Center. An inspirational and moving "tribute to Gov. Dalton came from former Gov. Mills Godwin. Senators Warner and Trib-le spoke, as did other prominent Virginians. The three candidates for the U.S. Senate nomination were introduced. The highlight of the evening was a speech by former Massachusetts Gov. Ed King, the man *who served in that office between present Gov. Dukakis’ first and second terms. Mr. King, a Democrat during this term as governor who became a Republican several years ago, gave the delegates and other guests some generally unknown blit pertinent facts about Dukakis’ performance in office. They included an increase of some 10,000 in state employment, or about 20 percent, a corresponding rise in spending by the state, which increased at three times inflation (a record that | News analysis should alert Rappahannock’s voters to what they may expect should he win in November), and an approach to the treatment of criminals that led Gov. Dukakis to commute the sentences of dozens of convicted murderers. Adding to that Gov. Dukakis’ recently expressed views on defense (we don’t need so much), the situation in, Nicaragua (it isn’t the Communist Sandinistas who are a threat to Central America and ultimately the United States, it is the Contras), and his lack of knowledge of foreign affairs, and every Rappahannock voter must be reminded of Jimmy Carter and wonder at the Democratic Party’s choice. The second day of the convention began at 10 a.m. Saturday. First came elections for a national committeeman and a national committeewoman from Virginia. Morton Blackwell and Flo Traywick were the successful candidates. A talk by the Vice President’s son featured a “conversation” with George Bush via telephone hookup. Then came the main business of the convention: the battle for the Republican nomination for the Senate seat. Three candidates fought for it: Maurice A. Dawkins, W. Gilbert Faulk and Andrew Wahlquist. Speeches and demonstrations, limited by convention rules to 25 minutes per candidate, were enthusiastic, informative and vigorous. Each candidate drew responses from the crowd, with Dr. Dawkins and Mr. Wahlquist clearly the strongest and, as well as we could tell, equally supported. When it came to counting the votes, however, Dr. Dawkins won a surprising first ballot victory, a decisive one. He took a solid majority of the total vote, including seven of the eight Rappahannock delegates. Should our voters wonder why their delegates overwhelmingly chose Dr. Dawkins, here are the principal reasons: • For the principles he supports, the posi tions he has publicly taken: “You know me — you know what I stand for — the right to life, the right to work, the right to own a gun, the right to economic opportunity, the right to equal justice under the law, and a color-blind society. “You know that I am a hard liner against Communism and will be the freedom fighters’ candidate. .. “You know that I am 100 percent against secularism, racism, and atheism and will vote for prayer in the schools and relentlessly fight drugs, crime and corruption.” • Because he is a dynamic, inspiring and vigorous speaker, in our opinion the candidate best fitted: first, to accomplish what most political experts consider a near-impossibility, the defeat of former Gov. Charles Robb, his better-known and campaign fund-wealthy opponent in November; second, best fitted to serve the long-term interests of Virginia’s residents and America’s citizens in the Senate. • Because we knew him best of the three (originally four) candidates and increasingly liked what we saw. True, there is much to admire in the others, newcomers that they are. But many delegates had observed Dr. Dawkins’ 1985 campaign for the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor of Virginia. The attempt failed, but in the process he showed what he could do, gaining exposure, earning respect. By helping select Maurice Dawkins, Rappahannock County’s delegates present the voters with a candidate whose beliefs and values are shared by most Virginians, whose abilities promise a dynamic and powerful campaign to convince voters of that fact, and whose presence in the U.S. Senate will make us all proud he was our choice. Anyone willing to help support his candidacy, and the re-election of Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr., should contact one of the eight residents who were delegates to Roanoke. We’ll need the help!

French Slaughter Jr. (R., 7th-Va.) criticized a legislative ploy which last week brought a major bill addressing home health care to the floor of the House of Representatives before the bill went through the normal process. The bill, Rep. Slaughter said, “was brought to the floor for a vote without undergoing the normal legislative scrutiny that is usually applied to bills that come before the House.” “This bill, which addresses an issue of great importance to all Americans, especially our elderly citizens, was brought to the floor under a rule that bypassed the normal committee process. After a bill is introduced in the House, it is referred to the ap propriate committee for study and possible amendment. This was not done in this case,” the congressman said. “I voted against this unusual rule and procedure,” he added. “The Congress is doing a disservice to the American people when it does not carefully consider the merits and shortcomings of legislation, particularly a bill of great importance like the one considered (last) week,” Rep. Slaughter added. Mr. Slaughter, who has been a consistent champion of federal insurance to address the problem of devastating medical bills from catastrophic illnesses, noted that “fortunately” the rule was defeated by 9 243 to 169 vote, “in bipartisan support for rejection. ” Ever feel helpless in ( morning traffic?

Tuesday Psalm 41 Wednesday Psalm SI Thursday Psalm 59 Friday Psalm 61 Saturday Psalm It takes more than the birth of a child to make a father. Something miraculous happens when a man realizes he is really a father. It may happen when he holds the baby in his arms for the first time or when he sees its first radiant smile. Suddenly, a man realizes that he is responsible for another human life. He knows that the kind of person he is will determine the kind of person his son or daughter will become. The values that he holds become more important than ever. It is often at this point in life, that many men seek to reestablish their religious affiliation for they need the guidance of their church more than ever. Whether you're a new father or one of long standing, attend the church or synagogue of your choice this week. It will make you a better father.

Tips to beat summer’s heat While many people eat more salads and leafy vegetables on hot summer days, reducing protein intake is another way to beat the heat, says a Radford University professor. You may be able to stay cooler by eating fewer high protein foods such as meats, says Julien AxeLson, chairman of Radford’s health services department. Excess protein, which will be metabolized as either energy or fat. can make you feel hotter because “the by-products of these processes must be excreted as urine,” she says. Choosing a cool salad instead of a heavy meat and potatoes meal on a hot day may be a subconscious response to the body’s need to replace fluids lost through perspiration, she says. “Ordinarily we don’t think about our water intake because our bodies adjust by telling us we’re thirsty,” she says. “Surprisingly, lettuce, which is about 95 percent water, is higher in water than some drinks, such as milk.” Fruits, vegetables and whole grains, which are high in fiber, are a good safeguard against water loss, adds Prof. Axelson. However, high fiber foods should be balanced with some proteins.

If you’re going to consume alcohol, Prof. Axelson suggests sticking-* with beer, wine or drinks made with mixer that have high water content. “On-the-rocks” drinks containing almost all alcohol cut off an anti-diuretic hormone in the body and consequently cause frequent urination, she explains. Summer is the time for outdoor activities and picnics. However, Prof. Axelson advises against eating immediately before playing any strenuous sports. Stomach discomfort and easy tiring from muscle strain may occur when blood, which normally flows evenly throughout the body, is concentrated near the digestive system to take care of food absorption in the stomach, she explains. A good rule of thumb for staying cool this summer is not to overdo outdoor activities. Prof. Axelson says. Drinking vitamin-fortified drinks isn’t necessary after playing sports, because your body really needs only water, she adds. “Just be sure to take in water frequently.” high school and college. Douglas H. Weaver, a student at Germanna Community College, was selected for inclusion in the Scholastic All-American Collegiate Directory, an annual publication. To be included in the directory, students must achieve a grade-point average of at least 3.30 and be nominated by a faculty member or administrator. Doug was nominated by Dr. Francis S. Tumage, president of Germanna Community College. He is the son of Virginius and Eloise Weaver and the grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Audie Weaver of Slate Mills. His maternal grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Johnson of Alexandria. Karen Marie Kerns, a student at Manassas Park High School, was named a United States National Award winner by the academy. She was nominated by John Strange, one of her teachers, for her outstanding achievements in science. According to an academy spokesman, less than 10 percent of all American high school students are recognized by the academy. They are included in the USAA’s Official Yearbook, published annually. Miss Kerns is the daughter of Richard and Donna Kerns of Manassas Park, and the granddaughter of Mrs. Edna L. Perry of Washington. “Recognizing and supporting our youth is more important than ever before in American history,” said USAA Executive Director Dr' George Stevens. “Certainly USAA award winners should be congratu7 lated and appreciated for their dedication to excellence and achievement.” The criteria for selection by the academy are academic performance, interest and aptitude, leadership qualities, responsibility, enthusiasm, motivation to learn and improve, citizenship, attitude and cooperative spirit, dependability and the recommendation of a teacher or administrator. / YOUR MONEY OR YOUR LIFE.

It can involve a trying deci’ sion. Sellers often turn it down, hoping for something better, only to find it turned out to be the best offer they received. . This is where the advice from our office can be particularly help' ful. The agent can tell you how rea• listic the offer is and whether the deposit that accompanies it represents good faith. Since there is now way to know how many offers will be received or the order of value, the offer should be judged on the seller’s and agent's knowledge of the house in question and the market. The depth of that knowledge will help protect the seller against the natural reluctance to accept the first offer and against regretting a decision that was not based on sound judgement. Remember, most good offers come early in the selling game. If it’s a fair one, why pass it up? If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate please stop in at EILEEN M.

Milk is a diet staple By SANDRA RICHARDSON Extension Agent, Home Economics There really are not that many differences between the whole, lowfat, and skim milk seen in today’s supermarkets. The main difference is the amount of fat the milk contains. The other federal standards for fluid milk vary slightly among the whole, lowfat and skim milk categories. Whole milk must contain a minimum of 3.25 percent fat. Lowfat milk can have either .5 percent, 1 percent, 1.5 percent or 2 percent fat. Skim milk must have less than .5 percent fat. These differences in fat account for the caloric differences among milk choices. One cup of whole milk (one half pint) has 150 calories; 2 percent fat milk has 121 calories; 1 percent fat milk has 102 calories, and skim milk has 86 calories. Whole, lowfat and skim milk must have a minimum of 8.25 percent of what is called "milk solids not fat." These are protein, lactose (milk sugar), and minerals in the dairy cow's milk in about this percentage. The average composition of milk as it comes from the dairy cow,is about 87 percent water, 3.5 percent each of fat and protein. 4.9 percent lactose, and .7 percent minerals. Fat can range between 3 and 5.5 percent, depending upon breed of cows, and protein between 3 and 4 percent. Most cows are Holsteins which produce milk with 3.6 percent fat. To get lowfat or skim milk, dairy processing plant equipment, using the principle of centrifugal force, is able to separate the fat from the other milk solids. The amount of fat removed can be changed by adjusting the equipment. There are also slightly different standards for whole, lowfat, and skim milk for the addition of vitamin A, a fat-soluble vitamin that is removed from milk when fat is removed. Vitamin A must be returned to lowfat and skim milk; adding it to whole milk is optional although it usually is done. Adding vitamin D to whole, lowfat and skim milk is also optional, but it is a standard procedure. The practice of adding vitamin D came about in an attempt to prevent rickets, a bone disease caused by leaching of calcium from bones because of inadequate sunlight or vitamin D. Today, there is more concern about osteoporosis in women, caused by dietary calcium deficiency. The maintenance of bones is a lifelong function. Milk provides calcium and phosphorus in a desirable ratio to form bones. The Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) for calcium depend on your age and stage of life. The chart below gives the amounts of cal eium needed in milligrams daily.

Rappahannock Journal Photo courtesy SWCS CONSERVING ERODIBLE CROPLAND, Cliff Latham surveys a stripcropped field on his farm near Amissville. Stripcropping helps farmers protect soil BY KENNER LOVE Rappahannock News Contributing Writer An enormous amount of erosion occurs on unprotected cropland annually, thus transporting tons of sediment and nutrients into the state’s streams, rivers and eventually the Chesapeake Bay. Because of the ever-increasing concerns for water quality and the importance of saving our soil, local fanners are realizing the need for better conservation practices. They not only improve water quality, but also protect one of our most important and vital natural resources, our soil. Cliff Latham, a Rappahannock County farmer and Chairman of the Culpeper Soil and Water Conservation District, has recently installed stripcropping as a conservation practice on his farm near Amissville. Stripcropping systems are strips or bands of row crops such as com or soybeans alternating with a closegrowing crop such as grass, alfalfa, or small grains. These strips are installed in widths to fit each particular field and each farmer’s needs. Mr. Latham is looking forward to the advantages this practice has to offer. “Reducing erosion is not the only advantage, but certainly an important benefit of stripcropping,” he said. “Other benefits are an improvement of infiltration into the soil; an increase in organic matter content of the soil; enabling the farmer to split the application of fertilizer; helping to control weeds, insects, and diseases; and providing more flexibility to maintain a good rotational system which allows the farmer to try new methods or crops on a few strips without changing the entire system.” Mr. Latham used the Chesapeake Bay Cost Share Program which paid $30 per acre to establish his strip system. A 75 percent add-on component costshare is also available for the removal of obstructions in the field and subsurface drainage where needed to make cross-slope farming possible. Kenner Love is the District Technician with the Culpeper Soil and Water Conservation District. For more information about stripcropping, contact the SWC office in Culpeper (825-8591).

In 1987, he was among a handful of students nationwide to achieve a perfect score of 800 on the Math SAT. Takenoshita will enter Brown University in Providence, R. I., in the fall of next year.

Lottery Continued from Page 3 the lottery business has been that within the first month, “we’ll be inundated,” he said. “Business people see crowds running into their competitor’s stores, and then they decide they want to sell tickets too.” And just as applications increase once the lottery begins, so does public support, according to Mr. Leonard. “In other states where the lottery has passed with 60 percent voting in favor and 40 percent against, a year later, it’s 80 percent I w for and only 20 percent opposed.” There’s no question but that the supervisor of the licensing department counts himself among the proponents, calling the lottery “the greatest thing that’s happened to Virginia since the holding at Jamestown.’1 The winners will not only be the lucky few who hit the jackpot; businesses will derive income from the ticket sales, the state will increase the balance in the general fund without raising taxes, and all Virginians will benefit from improvements in education, care for the elderly, and other programs receiving lottery revenue, according to Mr. Leonard. With the Virginia Lottery, “there are no losers,” he concluded. Tree planting effort way up Rappahannock County tree planters were extremely busy this spring. About 140,000 seedlings of various species were planted, ah increase of more than 100,000 over last spring’s plantings. The trees went on cutover woodland and open land no longer needed for agricultural production. Much of the steeper, erodible open land is not profitable to farm any longer. Also, landowner attitudes seem to be shifting away from agricultural production to providing an aesthetic, forested landscape around the home and farm. The species planted include white pine, loblolly pine, black walnut, black locust, Scotch pine, Norway spruce, and Chinese chestnut. These trees were planted for a variety of reasons. Planting cutover woodland for future timber products was number one. A total of 150 acres of cutover land was planted on the William G. Eastham and Sundale Corporation properties. Another 80 acres was planted for improvement of wildlife habitat, erosion control and Christmas trees. Even though planting season has just ended, it is not too early to plan for next spring’s planting. The Department of Forestry is now accepting applications for the RT costshare program. Reforestation costs generally range between $50 and $65 per acre after cost-share help. In addition to the RT program, there are other federal and state cost-share programs that may also be available. Sometimes these additional programs can be supplemental to the RT program and can further reduce planting costs. There is also a 10 percent reforestation tax credit available to qualifying landowners. Anyone interested in planting an old field or cutover area should call Buck Kline, Area Forester, at 9485341, or Tippy Jenkins, at 987-8837. Upon request a free planting site examination will be made. You may also write to Department of Forestry, P.O. Box 148, Madison, VA 22727. Mr. Kline is the Area Forester for Rappahannock County. Residents with forestry-related questions or concerns may address them to him or Forest Warden Jenkins (see addresses, numbers above).

Tex Continued from Page 1 heart big enough to capture anyone lucky enough to spend a few minutes with him. His sparkling blue eyes and ready smile envelop even more of his suntanned face as he leafs through hic scrapbook. The smile broadens as he points to photos of himself entertaining a group of Aborigine orphans with a home-made instrument called a hootenanny which includes a washboard, bells, whistles, tambourines and bicycle horns of all sizes. “I’ve always got time for the kids,” he enthused, his eyes glittering. This year, as always, he’s got some special things for the kids. He brought along a “swagman" doll - the Australian equivalent of a hobo. As he sings “Waltzing Matilda." the familiar campfire tune about a swagman in the outback, he illustrates the Australian slang words with the doll. Suddenly, probably for the first time, the kids - and their parents - understand what the song really means. “What makes a country is its people,” Mr. Banes said, when asked what brings him back to America for the ninth time. “I’ve a soft spot for the Yanks.” During World War II he served is a medical corpsman, and in his *pare time put his musical talent to ivork organizing and performing for ;he troops. Through his work and ;he concerts, he met many wounded Americans during their recupera:ions. He stayed in contact with 'Ome, and has been able to visit with a few during his trips to the U. S. “We had a great camaraderie with the Americans. We helped the GIs out - we knew the country . . . went with them to see the countryside. For their part, many of the Americans helped us to fight brush fires which were a terrible problem during those years. ” “We're best friends, the Yanks and us. I'm proud of it - we need each other.” To further that relationship, Mr. Banes has founded the AustrakanAmerican Friendship Association, and he extols that friendship everywhere he goes. He passes out pins in the shape of the Australian continent. stickers with two hands shaking. one arm emblazoned with the American flag, the other with the Australian colors, autographed photos of a display in his East Melbourne home of the flags of the two countries along with a photograph of himself in uniform during the w’ar. “I'd heard of southern hospitality for years - and I had to come and experience it.” Mr. Pierson met Tex through an Australian record collector with whom he trades. ‘This is the third time I’ve been here.” Tex recalled a yodeling contest with a shopper in the Sperryville Emporium during a visit there. “Afterward she said ‘I enjoyed it - that was lovely.’ . . .I’m always ready to create a bit of fun along the way.” Yodeling is a part of the original country (hillbilly) style popularized by Jimmy Rogers and others. “I first heard Jimmy Rogers yodel on a ‘wireless’ back in the 1930s when I was milking cows on a farm. In 1985 I performed an Australian song at the Carter fold; and when I started yodeling, it brought down the house.” Tex Banes’ musical career spans almost 50 years. He helped organize the first country music club in Australia, and performed there as a backup musician. In 1945 he formed Tex Banes and the Hayseeds, a legendary Australian hillbilly group. They were known for their distinctive stage dress, which included corn-cob pipes, ragged pants held up with rope and huge safety pins, floppy felt hats, tattered bandannas and long wooly beards of questionable authenticity. Although the Hayseeds were always a loosely-organized group, with members coming and going all the time, they still perform from time to time to appreciative audiences in Australia. Despite his popularity, Tex has never pursued a full-time musical career. In fact, he has never recorded a commercial album. Although he performs both solo and with the Hayseeds in concerts, most of his music is still offered to benefit various charity causes. For years he worked on farms in the country around Melbourne, and after some time spent working in a leather factory he took a job at Foster’s, a Melbourne brewery best known in this country for Foster’s Lager. He retired in 1986 after 37 years at the brewery. A mild heart attack in the spring of 1987 forced him to cancel his trip last year, but he’s back to full speed again, he assured a reporter this week. “I’ve taken care of myself, saving up my energy for this trip.” He loves his retirement, he said, because it gives him more time to travel. Tex said his friends call him an “international entertainer,” because he entertains everywhere he goes. “That’s why I never married,” he added, his blue eyes twinkling. “I never stood still long enough to say ‘I do’.” In 1986, Tex Banes was honored as the first lifetime member of the Jimmy Rogers Blue Yodelers Club during the Jimmy Rogers Memorial Festival in the singer’s hometown of Meridian, Miss. He just returned from his ninth visit to that festival, and called himself “the proudest Australian in America today.” During the graveside service in memory of Mr. Rogers, Tex held the American flag. “That meant more to me than any gold records, any material possessions.” During his stay in Amissville, Tex plans several local appearances. On Saturday, June 25, he will perform at Oak Springs Nursing Home in Warrenton, in a show sponsored by the Fauquier County Parks and Recreation Department. Mrs. Pierson said that Tex will give a performance “especially for children” at the Rappahannock County Park at 2 p.m. Friday, June 17. The concert is free, and children of all ages are invited, Tex added. The park is on Rt. 211 just outside Washington. For more information, contact Ginny Pierson, 937-4496. Dan Lewis, one of the organizers of the Gallery Coffeehouse, said that he has also spoken with Tex about the possibility of his participation in the RAAC Talent Show on Saturday, June 25. Following the talent show, Mr. Lewis plans to invite Tex and the audience to the Middle St. Gallery for an informal coffeehouse and sing-a-long. All are invited, and entertainers are encouraged to bring their instruments and their talent. Trible co-sponsors Conlra-aid bill U.S. Senator Paul Trible, last week introduced the Freedom Fighters’ Assistance Act of 1988, which authorizes economic and military assistance to anti-communist national movements that respect human rights. The measure also makes it more difficult for any president to give assistance to communist governments. In a statement to the Senate, Sen. Trible said, “Our purpose is to ensure that the Reagan Doctrine lives on. America must stand with those people who are risking their lives throughout the world - from Afghanistan to Angola to Nicaragua - to defy Marxist aggression and to secure basic human rights. Our law should reflect what President Reagan has said to the world’s freedom fighters: ‘America will support with moral and material assistance your right not just to fight and die for freedom, but to fight and win freedom’.” This legislation authorizes the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State to provide assistance - military, humanitarian, economic and political - to freedom fighter movements and to promote democratic training programs and democratic institution building. The bill also urges the President to suspend trade and diplomatic relations with governments in those countries in which the United States is aiding an insurgent movement. The bill requires annual reports on human rights practices of those groups receiving U.S. aid and on the presence of Soviet and Eastern bloc advisors and aid received in foreign countries. “If we are to assist freedom fighters abroad, we must ensure that we do not help the communist governments they are fighting. “America must stand by those who are fighting to be free. Freedom is not a privilege, it is a God-given right. We can help the cause of freedom by taking the Reagan Doctrine and writing it into law,” Sen. Trible said. Senators Robert Dole (R-KS), Jesse Helms (R-NC), Jake Gam (RUT), Steve Symms (R-ID) and Strom Thurmond (R-SC) co-sponsored the bill. Eileen M.

God said that he was going to make him the Father of many nations, yet it seemed impossible to Abraham and his wife Sarah, because Abraham was 100 years old, and Sarah was 90, and her womb was dead, you may not be facing that kind of situation but still you may be facing financial problems, or health problems, or marriage problems, etc. The answer is the same for your situation as it was for Abraham and Sarah, we must be strong in faith. The bible says in Romans 10:17, So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Your faith will grow strong by hearing the word of God. Abraham believed God’s word, and received the promise that he would bear a son in his old age, and that through his son Isaac he would be the father of many nations. You too can receive what the bible promises you, for your situation, the bible has a promise to cover your situation, and as you declare by faith that you have what the verse promises you, you will have the victory in that area of your life. You may think that your situation is impossible yet Jesus said in Mark 9:23, If thou canst believe all things are possible to him that believeth. I encourage you to start building your faith to a strong level by feeding on God’s word. We here at Family Worship Center, believe in teaching on faith, how to build strong faith and how to use your faith in the problems and situations that we face in life. I’m in the process of teaching on faith over the next several weeks, so come to our services, and hear these messages on faith, so that your faith will grow strong. Our service times are Sunday morning 10:30 and Wednesday nite at 7:00, located on Mount Salem Ave. in the old school building. Love in Christ, Pastor Bill Taylor State offers oil recycling The Virginia Department of Mines, Minerals and Energy’s Division of Energy has announced that service stations in Culpeper and Front Royal are among 540 private businesses statewide, mostly retail service stations, which are collecting used oil from people who change their own oil. Once collected, the department’s spokesman said, the oil is recycled as an industrial fuel supplement or re-refined into lube stock. “Motorists can keep their used oil from causing environmental problems by taking it to a service station displaying the blue and white ‘Return Used Oil Here’ sign,’’ the spokesman said. Although no businesses in Rappahannock County are presently participating in the program, there are three stations in Front Royal and two in Culpeper which will accept the used oil.

According to Trooper Moore, a 1987 Mazda pickup driven by James Carroll Racer III, of Washington, Va., was northbound on Rt. 729 from Ben Venue toward Flint Hill “at an unsafe speed.” The second vehicle, a 1973 Chevrolet pickup driven by Carl Lester James, of Amissville, pulled from Rt. 638 onto Rt. 729 and was struck by Mr. Racer’s truck. Mr. Racer and two passengers in his truck, Elaine Jessica McCabe and Mary Elizabeth Lashley, were taken to Fauquier Hospital where they were treated for minor injuries. Mr. Racer and Ms. Lashley suffered cuts on their heads, and Ms. McCabe* was treated for a broken toe and abrasions. Trooper Moore charged Mr. Racer with reckless driving, “operating his vehicle in excess of the maximum safe speed.” He charged Mr. James with improper stopping in a roadway. Trooper Moore also cited Ms. McCabe and Ms. Lashley for failure to wear seat belts. The trooper estimated damages at $8,000 to Mr. Racer’s truck and $500 to Mr. James’s truck. Fire and rescue personnel from Flint Hill and Amissville responded to the accident. Budget Continued from Page 1 ber and other supplies), rental of equipment necessary for projects, services and contracts (including lawn care, snow removal and heavy equipment operators), and equipment repair parts. Income also above $78,000 True to its recent history, the town’s income balances its proposed expenditures, totalling $78,318. The largest contributors to the town’s coffers are its restaurants and lodging places. A total of $38,500, 49 percent of the total, will come from the town’s 2V2 percent meals and lodging tax. Payments to the town’s Water Authority by the town’s residents will bring an additional $20,000, or 26 percent of projected income. Two years ago the Rappahannock National Bank’s franchise tax accounted for nearly all of the town’s $13,000 budget. This year, the $11,000 contributed by the bank counts for only 14 percent of the town’s expected income. The town’s share of state sales tax revenues will bring another estimated $2,000, while water service connections will bring in $2,800. The two categories account for six percent of the total budget. Another five percent ($4,018) ofthe town’s income comes from a number of state and local sources, including its share of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board revenues, building permits, fines and interest, and Potomac-Edison’s franchise tax, which the electric utility pays for its service within the town.
