During the 50-minute meeting the council alsp discussed guidelines for public use of the town hall, deferred voting on nominations to the Planning Commission because several council members were absent, and listened to several reports. Mrs. Susan Parrish presided over the meeting in the absence of Mayor Dean Morehouse. After reviewing recommendations of the Planning Commission, which voted to adopt the Zoning Ordinance after a hearing last month, the council scheduled a final public hearing September 10 on the Zoning Ordinance as amended. The suggested changes in the ordinance correct a typographical error and permit the keeping of three dogs per dwelling unit, and up to six dogs in a kennel. The council voted to begin holding meetings in the town hall. The building, at the corner of Gay and Calvert streets, is the former Rappahannock County Library. Funds have already been appropriated for chairs for council members, and the meeting table is under construction. Attorney council Frank Reynolds reported that Mayor More house had talked wi{,h him about a possible museum in the town hall that would memorialize < George Washington’s surveying days. He said that Mt. Vernon and the Smithsonian Insititution may supply display material at no charge as a rotating exhibit. The most appropriate exhibit area is the foyer. Council members supported the idea, but felt that details needed to be worked out, including questions of security aqnd liability for the exhibits. The voted unanimously to authorize the mayor to pursue the concept. There was additional discussion on other possible public uses of the town hall. Council members felt that the building should be available to the public, but guidelines are necessary. Frank Scott and Steve Critzer were both nominated to fill the position on the Planning Commission made vacant by the resignation of Arthur Neufeld. However, because so many members were absent, the council voted to defer voting on the nominations. Members noted that Louise Van Dort had spent many hours as a volunteer getting council files in order, and that she had used her own funds to buy supplies and materials. Exact amounts were not available, but— See Council, PageA-8 Supervisors Agree on Bonds May Apply for Up To $1.5 Million for School By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Following a lengthy executive session Tuesday night the Board of Supervisors approved a resolution to apply for $1.5 million in bonds issued by the Virginia Public School Authority for the addition to the elementary school. School Superintendent David Gangel and bond counsel Carolyn Perry from Wharton, Aldhizer and Weaver of Harrisonburg were present for the executive session and the public vote which followed. Appraiser Walter A. Robinson Jr. was also present for the executive session but not the open session. The amount for the bonds was 'higher than the $1,375 million the School Board approved in a resolution last week. Ms. Perry urged the board to approve the larger amount because, she said, the VPSA is used to dealing in rounded amounts and the county could always borrow less if the larger amount is not necessary. The resolution to apply for the bonds does not obligate the county to borrow the money, she said. The board must hold a public hearing before actually voting to borrow the money. The public hearing is scheduled for the 7 p.m. September 8 meeting. The supervisors must actually vote to borrow money before October 8 if they want funds from the fall bond sale, she said. While the executive session was going on, Hampton District representative Mike Massie and Commonwealths Attorney Peter Luke met separately with Roy Leake outside the courthouse. Mr. Leake sold the county the land for the elementary school and still owns about 4.5 acres between the gymnasium side of the school and Route 636. He said an appraiser, who said he was working for the School Board, had come to appraise his land. He also said he was not willing to sell the land. The supervisors did not take any vote to purchase land following the executive session. The board did vote to ask Mr. Luke to write to the State Corporation Council asking the SCC to hold a public hearing before issuing a certificate to the Rappahannock Electric Cooperative for the proposed transmission line from the Potomac ' Edison substation in Sperryville to the REC substation' in Rixeyville. Mr. Luke said he did not know if the transmission line would require a certificate from the SCC. He said if such a public hearing is held, it will probably be in Richmond.

Highs in the mid-80s both Hazel River Nominated For Tier III By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Richard and Joyce Abell of Woodville have joined Jim and Sally Mello of Rixeyville in nominating the Hazel River for inclusion in Virginia’s list of “exceptional waters,” Tier III. Actually their original letter nominating the stream resulted in a letter asking for further information. The Abells said Sally Mello is the main person working on that. • To be considered for Tier III status a stream must have an “exceptional environmental setting” and either “exceptional aquatic communities” or “exceptional recreational opportunities.” Mr. Abell said they intended to nominate the river for its entire length from the* Shenandoah “National Park to where it joins the Rappahannock in Culpeper County. They did not intend to include the tributaries, such as the Covington, Rush or Thornton. Mr. Abell said he expected support for designating the river Tier III in Rappahannock County. “It’s less likely to win approval in Culpeper County,” he added. If the Water Board of the Department of Environmental Quality, accepts the documentation the Abells and Mellos sent in as sufficient to consider the Hazel for Tier III status, the board will hold a hearing on whether or not to designate the river for Tier III. If the board then votes for Tier III for the Hazel, no new point-source discharges will be allowed on the river and no existing point-source discharges can be expanded. “Regardless of effluent quality, ■ \'v v ■ See Hazel, Page A-8 ... , .

Culpeper County Chief Deputy Carroll Woody said Tuesday that the Aug. 13 raid on the property, initiated by the Planning District 9 Task Force, netted six arrests, more . than $10,000 in cash, numerous bags of marijuana, a handgun and a 1989 Acura Legend. The two-hour raid was planned as a result of the many complaints about the area and successful undercover drug buys conducted there by PD-9 officers, Woody said. The PD-9 Task Force includes police from the following jurisdictions: the Orange County Sheriffs Office, the Culpeper Town Police, the Culpeper County Sheriffs Office, the Virginia State Police, and the Fauquier County "Sheriffs Office, Woody said. ,, Also participating in the raid were the Governor's Command Task Force, the Federal Bureau of Investigations, a Virginia State Police helicopter unit, and canine units from the Culpeper Towri Police, Orange County Police and the Virginia State Police, Woody said. He said that as officers pulled into view of the five or six houses that are on the property the suspects “booked” into the nearby woods where they had escaped from police during previous raids. This time, however, they ran into the waiting arms of participating police officers, Woody said. If that weren’t enough, he said, a helicopter hovered overhead and a “jump-out” team was in pursuit as the suspects took their first steps to .ward the woods!. The property, located in a narrow “neck” of Culpeper County between the Fauquier and Rappahannock County lines on U.S. 211, is owned by the Morgan family and has been a suspected haven for I drug dealers for many years, accord- j ing to several local law enforcement officials. “We’ve known they’ve been dealing there for quite awhile," said See Raid, Page A-8 f1 V f i Site of Aug. 13 Raid at Morgan* Store

Gov. Donald Beyer Dislikes Clinton Budget By PATRICK GRAHAM Rappahannock News SUIT Writer Democratic Lt. Gov. Donald S. Beyer Jr. last week denounced President Clinton’s economic plan, saying it unfairly taxes small businesses and will stifle job growth. “The tax program unnecessarily penalizes small business, and therefore doesn’t do any of the job creation that is so badly needed,” said Beyer, who owns a Volvo dealership in Falls Church. Beyer, seeking a second term in the state’s number two post, said he would have voted against the president’s plan that cuts the deficit by $500 billion but adds $1.5 trillion to the national debt during the next five years. In an interview with the editorial board of ArCom Newspapers last Friday, Beyer said the plan relies too heavily on tax increases — $250 billion mainly on the wealthy — to reduce the deficit and does not contain enough spending cuts. “I would have voted against the plan because it had a couple of things I found unacceptable. The deficit reduction is three years down the road,” Beyer said. “We aren’t making any sacrifices in this budget on the spending side. You achieve most of the budget reductions through tax increases.” Beyer, who praised Clinton's “guts and vision,” nevertheless said he has met business owners who are already reacting negatively to plan. “They are uniformly upset,” he said. “They say they were going to expand their businesses, but now they are going to keep it status quo.” Beyer joins his running mate, former state attorney general and gubernatorial nominee Mary Sue Terry, in opposing Clinton’s plan. Hie plan narrowly passed the House and Senate two weeks ago. Beyer’s criticism reflects those made by Republican congressional lawmakers who have argued that the plan will hurt businesses and cripple an already weak economic recovery. Many congressional Democrats reportedly were reluctant to vote for the plan, and wondered how their constituents will react to it. Beyer would not speculate whether the plan’s lack of popularity will hurt Ms. Terry and her Democratic running mates this fall. “It’s hard to predict, but you play the hand you’re dealt with,” he said.

Board Rejects All Bids The School Board decided to reject all bids for gasoline and diesel fuel for the buses and to seek new bids that would include supplying tanks. The new bids are to be submitted by 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, August 25. When bids for fuels were opened at last week’s School Board meeting, none of the bidders was willing to supply tanks. Quarles Petroleum, which owns the tanks at the bus shop, did not submit a bid. School Superintendent David Gangel said he is “optimistic” that: this time the school system will get a bid from a firm willing to supply tanks. The tanks were filled at the end of the last school year. There is enough diesel fuel for two to three days of bus operation and enough gasoline for between 10 and 12 days.

Two portions of the Rappahannock River have previously been proposed for Tier III. This week the Hazel River was proposed for Tier III. The Rappahannock, particularly the upper portion from the source near Chester Gap to Carter’s Run appears to be an ideal candidate. It can be preserved in its present pristine state with no impact on future development in adjoining Rappahannock and Fauquier counties. Getting approval as Tier III should be almost automatic; “a piece of cake,” in the words of Robert Dennis, president of the Piedmont Environmental Council. Designation of the lower portion of the Rappahannock proposed for Tier III from Kelly’s Ford almost to Fredericksburg, is facing possible oppposition from the more urbanized counties to the south of Rappahannock. These counties fear that such a designation would stifle development forever. Tier III designation of the Hazel River faces even tougher sledding in Culpeper County because it flows virtually through the middle of that county after it leaves Rappahannock. In particular, it threatens the plans of the powerful American Security Council Foundation to include a Congressional conference center and retirement community. If the two proposed sectons of the Rappahannock River and the Hazel River are all designated Tier III, future development in Culpeper County will be severly restricted. Trying to push all three Tier III designations may result in such a backslash of reaction that nothing gets designated. A compromise may be possible. Here is what we suggest. 1. Designate both sections of the Rappahano^k River for Tier III designation as originally proposed. 2. Change the proposal for Tier III designation of the Hazel River to include only that portion of the river within Rappahannock County. A compromise by its nature is never 100 percent satisfactory to all, but we think this one comes close. It would be nice, but unlikely, if all three portions of the Rappahannock and Hazel rivers could be Tier III. But a piece of the cake is better than no cake at all.

Participants include Ashley Corbin on Ginny Caldwell on Lilly. etters to Taunts Not Justified To the Editor: At the risk of reducing myself to a level frowned upon by both by upbringing and the most basic precepts of commom courtesy, I would like to respond to some of the taunts and misinformation so vehemently put forth in Mr. Powers’ letter of last week. First, what exactly must one do to pass that imaginary barrier from boyhood to manhood? Obviously getting an education and becoming a doctor, a lawyer, a journalist or selfmade businessman does not fit Mr. Powers’ lofty criteria. Second, what “clique” is it that has such power over these respected individuals? Could it be the clique of Rappahannock natives and landowners that have a valid concern for their lands and the environment? Or could it simply be the clique of people who remember a time when cyclamates and dioxins were considered perfectly safe and cigarette packs did not carry warning labels? Third, in reference to land values, does Mr. Powers honestly believe that a piece of land located next to a farm that hasyegular sludge applications would bring as much in the market as a piece of property that is nowhere near any sludge applied land? If so, then the property next to the Warrenton Sewer Plant that Mr. ► Powers referred to must surely be the most valuable parcel in the state. And speaking of that sewer plant, no I don’t think that the the stench it emits keeps people from going to work but I also doubt it encourages many commuters to stop and srpell th(? roses in that particular area. Also, if, as Mr. Powers alleges, there is such a demand for sludge application in other areas, why then do we need to open our unspoiled county to it? Lastly, I must ask why is it that important issues here in the county cannot be discussed in a civilized manner without rancor and thinly veiled insults? It is no wonder that so few people are willing to give their input at the various public hearings held on different issues throughout the year. Why should they, when they know that they are opening themselves up to unwarranted criticism from others who fail to accept any viewpoint other than their own. I don’t think that any of us have all the answers to any particular issue which is why public hearings and sharing of opinions are necessary. I may not agree with Mr. Powers or others who are supportive of sludge application but I am at least willing to listen to their arguments. Is it to much to ask that they extend the same courtesy to others? JAMES E. SWINDLER II Sperryville The New Tax Law To the Editor: ^ Many people still don't seem to understand the new deficit reduction law. A working American with family income less than $27,000 a year will get,# tax credit, a check from the federal government, which may even be for more than the income tax that he or she has paid. The gasoline tax increase of 4.3 cents a gallon amounts to about 10 cents a day for the average driver. This will be the only news general tax paid by anyone who makes less than $115,000 per year in taxable income (about $140,000 in gross income) for individuals, or $140,000 in taxable income (about $180,000 in gross income) for couples filing jointly. Retirees drawing social security and having total income of more than $34,000 (or $44,000 per couple) will pay a higher tax on their social security income. Sone extra taxes may be due from people with inheritances, capital gains, club dues paid by their employers, business meals and entertainment; but the great majority of people making under $140,000 will pay no new taxes whatever, except the trivial gas tax. People making more than $140,000 per year ($180,000 per couple), who are about 1.5 percent of all taxpayers, will pay more income taxes. These are the people who made out so very well under Reagan and Bush. Every Republican in Congress voted against this bill, trying to protect this richest 1.5 percent from paying their fair share of the deficit reduction. AUGUSTUS C. JOHNSON Syria Fund Abortions To the Editor: In response to Catherine L. Smith’s hand-wringing Letter to the Editor in the Rappahannock News of July 28, 1993, (“Stop Abortions”), I think of the recent shooting to death by the police of the Brazilian street children whose parents were unable to care for them. Let’s hope our coming Health Care Plan DOES include financing of all facets of birth control, including abortions, so that American women in poverty won’t have more children than they want, or more than they can care for. All you Catherines out there, join with us and sing “Glory be to God that there are no more of us”; be glad we are 30,000,000 fewer people polluting our fragile earth. LUCY W. FERGUSON Sperryville Unfair Competition? To the Editor: My good neighbor, Harrison Powers, appeared to be a little testy refering to the pronouncements of my friends Newbill Miller and J.W. Fletcher III on the subject of sludge. Yet, personal excursions aside, Harrison Powers seems to command more first hand experience and knowledge than the opponents of sludge in Rappahannock County. I frequently travel Route 647 to Marshall. On the Fauquier side, land has been “sludged.” There has been a,faint smell associated with it on an occasion but it did not last long. If sludge represents “unfair” competition to our established economic (business) powers, their directors, members, etc., then, let it be brought up as such and adjusted accordingly. Otherwise, the less smoke screen type of arguments we get against it, the better. WITOLD KUNCEWICZ Flint Hill Dogs Get Prayer To the Editor: I’ve read, as well as heard, the stories of dog owners in Rappahannock who have, through the maliciousness of some person or people, had to experience the loss of their four footed friends. My heartfeld sympathy goes out to each of you. I, as most people I’ve spoken with, find * that anyone who could commit acts such as theses totally unforgivable. As a lover of animals, it strikes the deepest of cords which make all of us compassionate to our friends who are unable to speak, yet give so much of themselves in an ever trusting way-even as you approached their water dishes to ultimately poison them, they instinctively “trusted” that you were their friend and would do no harm. How wrong they were. I leave you with these words to read and ponder. As sure as there’s a heaven, I pray it haunts you until you turn yourself in to the authorities and stand accountable for your crimes. A Dog’s Prayer Treat me kindly, my beloved master, for no heart in all the world is more grateful for kindness than the loving heart of me. Do not break my spirit with a stick, for though I should lick you hand bewteen the blows, your patience and understanding will more quickly teach me the things you would have me do. Speak to me often, for your voice is the world’s sweetest music, as you must know by the fierce wagging of my tail when your footstep falls upon my waiting ear. When it is cold and wet, please take me inside, for I am no longer used to bitter elements. And I ask no greater glory than the privilege of sitting at your feet beside the hearth. Though you had no fyome, I would rather follow you through ice and snow than rest upon the softest pillow in the warmest home in all the land, for you are my God and I am your devoted worshipper, ' Keep my pan filled with fresh water, for although I should not reproach you were it dry, I cannot tell you when I suffer thirst. Feed me clean food, that I may stay well, to romp and play and do your bidding, to walk by your side, and stand ready, willing and able to protect you with my life should your life be in danger. \ And beloved master, should the Great Master see fit to deprive me of my health or sight, do not turn me away from you. Rather, hold me gently in your arms as skilled hands grant me the merciful boon of eter: nal rest...and I will leave you knowing with the last breath I drew, my fate was ever safest in your hands: DAVID A. ROBERTS) Culpeper Both Barrels A Dud To the Editor: I am writing in response to Mr. Goolrick’s syndicated column ap' pearing in the Aug. 11th issue of your paper. It seems that Mr. Goolrick has been blasting with “both barrels” so long he has become hard of hearing, or is it that the material is so dated? While it is true that at the convention Mrs. Kilberg was booed, her supporters were not “run roughshod over” by Farris nominating speech said, “We need Bobbi on the ticket bacause women vote for women.” This got her soundly booed for insluting the intelligence of the audience. This statement goes hand in hand with “whites vote for whites” or “blacks for blacks,” etc. She was simply out of place. Mrs. Kilberg broke “faith” with the delegated with open display of hostility toward our party’s nominee. Yet It wonder how the conservatives woulld react to someone like Bobbi Kilberg on the ticket, porbably react to someone like Bobbi Kilberg on the ticket, probably sulky but no hostile. Playing partisan politics is like watching a yo-yo go up and down. We find it exciting and repulisive at times. Playing in the party helps put in place the candidates which we will vote on in the general election come each November. There is always someone who becomes dissatisfied with the outcome. I have been there myself, but I take the Jefferson rule of thought of “peaceably going along with the majority until we can make a change from within. ” J This though caused me to become active in the Republican party that pledges to limit government, taxation and spending with adherence to old-time American morals stemming from Judeo-Christian teachings. These principles brought us some of the most beloved presidents and governors of this century, while the Democrat party’s lack of moral background has brought us the Clintons with their plans for a gay military. While niether party is perfect or has all the right answers, the solutions must come from the private sector, not the government. This is where you Republic Party stands, and the Allen/Farris/Gilmore ticket is a standard-bearer. The Republican ticket is closer to the Virginia mainstream See Letters, Page A-5

Home Schooling Growing Popular : By MARCIA MURRAY bwahannoelt N«w» Contributlnf Writer ! When you close your eyes and think of “school” you $an see a group Of moppets poring over books, exclaimE" lg, “Wow!” at a science experiment, or hopping onto a us for a field trip. These delightful school experience *re increasingly taking place outside the school-as-institution setting as some parents opt for independent learning, sometimes called “homeschooling.” I Opinion J ■ In Rappahannock, Fauquier, Culpeper, Warren pnd surrounding counties, as well as nationwide, the ^umbers seem to be rapidly growing. National estimates vary but recently have been put at about two million children, and local estimates are of dramatic Increases. In Rappahannock County homeschooling families are a diverse group, as they are across the nationBffluent or of modest means, conservative, progressive ^r libertarian, highly educated (and some are private or public school teachers) or of little formal education, and a large contingent of middle-class two-parent families. | Parents give a range of reasons for exercising this . {option. Some cite academics-personlized learning, the Intimate, close teacher-student communication, elimination of boredom. Others give social reasons—parental involvement in education, control over peer pressure, Avoidance of distractions. Still others emphasize values; , they want more control over objectionable behaviors and ideas their youngsters may learn in today’s schools. I Indications are that the vast majority of parents pnd children who have tried it are happy with the results. In informal discussions with Rappahannock children and eight parents who homeschooled last year all agreed it was a postive, satisfying experience, and all said they planned to continued. Academics is a strong suit, as shown by trends in Virginia. According to 1992 statistics released by the national Center for Home Education, Virginia homeschool«rs, kindergarteners through highschoolers, scored 20 to 40 percentile points about the national average on standardized tests. When compared to public school student averages^Virginia homeschoolers ranked 15 to 32 (feints higher. These results have been repeated in statistics from many other states. Karen Cottrell, an admissions officer at the University of Virginia, recently reported the university is happy to entertain applications from homeschooled students and has no bias either against or in favor of them. She mentioned that since they have no class rank to rely on, the independently educated applicants should plan to take several standardized achievement tests to demonstrate their academic skills. Standardized aptitude and achievement tests will be given increased weight in the Admissions decision, she said. ■ ‘ A 1986 national study of homeschooled children | Opinion found half scored at or above the 91st percentile of a (Piers-Harris Children’s) self-concept scale, indicating strong self-concepts. The researcher, John Wesley Taylor, concluded the results might be explained by homeschoolers’ higher achievement levels, by their independent study abilities, one-on-one tutoring, high levels of parents interest and communication, homeschoolers’ relative independence from peers, their strong sense of responsibility and low anxiety levels. Research in 1988 and 1986 confirmed that homeschoolers are as involved in community, church, clubs and activities as other children and are not isolated from their peers. Raymond S. Moore, author of Home School Burnout, notes a high sense of camaraderie and selfworth among homeschoolers, as well as responsibility, sociability and friendliness. He reports home educated children are seldom, if ever, involved in drugs, violence or sexual promiscuity. In Virginia parents may legally opt for homeschooling in one of two ways. First, they may do so by notifying their school superintendent no later than August 31. There is a specific statute, Virginia Code Annotated Section 22.1-254.1, that requires parents to provide a program of study together with the notice. This law compels annual evaluations of a student’s progress, which may be carried out in the school, free of charge, by taking the Iowa Skills test, or at home at a cost of about $20 for that or another standardized test. Student progress may also be shown by other kinds of evaluation (independent evaluators, a portfolio of the student’s work, parent-superintendent conferences, or the like, under current state policies). Alternatively, families who decide to homeschool may proceed under Section 22.1-257, the statute entitled “Excusing children...whose parents conscientiously object.” This embodies the Constitutional mandate for free exercise of religion. It requires a bona fide religious training or belief as the reason for conscientious objection. According to Attorney Christopher J. Klicka of Home School Legal Defense Association, the exemption applies even though families are not members of a church or are members of one that has no doctrine about home education. One’s convictions can be personal as long as they are religious and sincere. Anyone interested in homeschooling in Rappahannock County should contact one of the local homeschool support groups for help in understanding the laws. Cathy Schneider (635-9322) of Chester Gap will be happy to answer any questions. She is a member of a local group of over 100 homeschool families. She can also provide information on other groups, such as Home Educators Association of Rappahannock, Home Educators Association of Virginia, and Home School Legal Defense Association, and on sources for educational curriculum materials, books and teaching aids as well as field trips and supplementary classes for homeschooled youngsters. All Rappahannock homeschooling families are invited to a potluck supper on Sunday, September 12 (9878215 for further information). Wilder Sounding GOP Themes By JOHN GOOLRICK Gov. L. Douglas Wilder says he Wfill run for U.S. Senate next year as a Democrat and not an independent. While there is still a chance he may change his mind about that, perhaps the governor may also want to consider seeking the Republican domination for Senate. Yes, I am acutely aware that Mr. Wilder has been a lifelong Democrat and that he got elected to the state Senate, lieutenant governor and governor as a Democrat. But in recent times, while preparing for his run against archenemy U.S. Senator Charles S. Robb next year, Mr. Wilder has funded much more like a Republican than a Democrat. , He has been, for example, a highly vocal critic of President Bill Clinton, a fellow Democrat, who has already endorsed Robb for re-election. Indeed, Wilder has blasted Clintpn’s proposed budget as one that unnecessarily raises taxes and will cause economic havoc. He has sharply criticized Robb for supporting the Clinton plan and has alleged t]hat Robb is not acting in accord with Virginia’s tradition of fiscal integrity. ' Since whoever gets the GOP nomination for Senate in 1994 will likely sound such themes, if Wilder were the Republican nominee they would sound all the more convincing coming from someone who formerly shared the same party as Robb. Of course, Wilder is not about to become a Republican even if he does talk like one with increasing frequency. But his potshots at Robb and his lukewarm (at best) support for Democratic gubernatorial nominee Mary Sue Terry point to a developing fracture within the Virginia Democratic Party that will probably get worse as time goes on. The Wilder-Robb confrontation, providing Wilder remains a Democrat, will cause tremors that may register on the Richter scale. Whether the party decides to choose its nominee at a convention or by primary, the battle is going to be an ugly one because Wilder makes it clear he intends to go for the jugular. That means Robb can expect attacks not only on his political connections to the Clinton Administration, but on his past lifestyle and the famous bugging incident that resulted in the eventual resignation of three of his top staff aides and scrutiny of his own role by a federal grand jury. Though Wilder is unlikely to seek nomination as a Republican, the GOP will still have a hotly-contested race for the nomination. Iran-Contra figure Ollie North is the clear frontrunner at the moment and has been drawing big crowds wherever he goes in the state. But there remains a sizeable group within the party who think North’s candidacy is inappropriate, and many of them are inclined to rally around fromer U.S. Attorney Jay Stephens who is currently testing the waters. Meanwhile, the pending Senate race is overshadowing this year’s gubernatorial race, which suits the low-key strategy of Ms. Terry just fine, although she is hunkering down in the bunker to avoid any fallout from the messy Robb-Wilder business.

High School Sports Begin Fall Practice By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer With the start of school still three weeks in the future, high school sports were underway Monday. Try-outs and practice started for girls’ basketball varsity and junior varsity teams as well as the cross country team and cheerleaders. Of the girls basketball teams varsity coach Gary Leake said, “This is the highest number trying out I can remember in 17 years as a student, fan and coach.” Thirty-six girls showed up Monday to try for 30 places on the two teams. Two more are expected. He said former teams have had players with plenty of ability, but the teams have lacked depth. In the past anyone trying out was more or less automatically guaranteed a place on a team. “We were lucky to have five-on-five drills during tryouts,” coach Leake said. “Now it will be extremely competitive for the kids to earn a position.” The Boosters Club has provided 15 new uniforms for each team, and coach Leake expects each team to keep 15 players. Some will be selected by the end of this week. Girls who want to try out but could not come this week, as well as those who do not make the original cut, will have another opportunity to try out during the first week of school, he said. He attributed the increased interest in the girls’ basketball teams r to summer basketball camps and the success of the girls’ volleyball and softball teams. This year there is a new coach for the junior varsity team. Emily Wingate is a new part-time teacher at the elementary school. She played basketball at Madison High School and at Emory and Henry College. She is enthusiastic about her new team and looking forward to the season. The girls have two home games in the first week of school. They will open against Central of Woodstock on Tuesday September 7 and play Page County Thursday September 9. Junior varsity games begin at 6 p.m. and varsity games follow, usually at about 7:30. Cheerleaders also started practice this week. New sponsor Tammye Deimel had her girls working on their routines Monday morning. They must also be ready to perform by the first game on the opening day of school. There was a small group of students out for the cross country team Monday morning. Coach David van de Graaff said he expects more students to show up for practice later. The cross country team has its opening meet at the Radford Invitational Saturday September 11. The first district meet will be at Stonewall Jackson Wednesday September 15, and the team will host a meet with Luray on Monday September 20. The home course is on the Bleu Rock Inn property.

Soccer Registration Set By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannock Soccer League Commissioner Anne Kerr said the league will be registering players during fee day at the elementary school. However, it appears that the league will not sponsor a highschool-aged team this fall. Mrs. Kerr said boys and girls will be registered for teams of those '.aider 14, under 12, under 10, under 8 and under 6. The cost will be $20 for one player in a family, $30 for two, and $40 for three. Those 14 and older can join select teams and travel teams in other counties, she said. In addition older soccer players will be helping with the younger players as line judges, referees and coaching assistants. Except for the under 6 teams, the league teams will compete with teams from Rappahannock, Culpeper and Fauquier counties. The youngest players will only play in Rappahannock County. Mrs. Kerr said she had most of her coaches lined up for the fall season and that those needing more information should call her at 9375483. Some of the older players havr^ already committed to play with un*j der 17 and under 19 teams in Fau*. quier and Culpeper counties. *£ The league season will get under** way September 11 with an all daw clinic, Mrs. Kerr said. John Ellis oC the Soccer Academy and a staff professionals will begin the day witlfj a coaches’ clinic at 9 a.m. and theij; work with the youth teams for thq rest of the day. In the case of tha youngest players the professional’ will train the parents and have ther teach the children. Last year an under 17 Rappaha nock team competed in a Fauquiej County House League; howeverfi many of those players are no longeft eligible for an under 17 team. Higljjj school coach Uli Maeyer, who alsJg coached that team last year, said h«* understands that there will not be 45 house league in Fauquier this fall#* He expects many of the players join teams in other counties this faS and play indoor soccer during thJ winter.

From Page A-l ►Raid Rappahannock County Sheriff John Henry Woodward, “so I hope: this [raid] stops it.” Fauquier County Sheriff Joe Higgs agreed with Woodward’s sentiment, saying that the site has been “a thorn in the side of Sheriff Woodward and myself.” He said that because of the location of the property, many people think it is in Fauquier or Rappahannock County and complain to those jurisdictions about the activities at the place. : “The results of the raid should make an important impact on the drug distribution that has- been going on in Fauquier County,”* Higgs said. He warned, however, that Cross Creek is( not special ip its ability to ;houae drug dealers;!,, ;• .y&V;; “Yes, we have shut down Cross Creek, but that doesn’t mean that the drug dealers will not go somewhere else,” Higgs said. “We’ve won a battle, but we haven’t won the war.” He added that tougher sentences need to be imposed on those convicted of selling drugs. Among those arrested was Mi chael Morgan, 25, of Amissville. Wanted on an April 2,1992 warrant, Morgan was charged with malicious wounding, use of a firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, probation violation, and being a fugitive from justice, Woody said. He is being held in the Culpeper County Jail without bond, Woody said. According to Woody the following individuals were also arrested: • John P. Morgan, 37, of Amissville on four counts of distribution of cocaine. Morgan is being held in the Culpeper County Jail on $30,000 bond. • James Phillips Jr., 36, of Amissville on one count of distribution of cocaine. His bond was set at In Warrenton at Why 1.

Mrs. Parish said she would take with her, and report back. Adelphi Cable has completed laying cable in 85 percent of the town, reported council attorney Reynolds. There have been some minor problems with landowners in Sperryvik and the Flint Hill-Chester Gap areas, he said. Cable workers art putting the fiber optics together, and the project should be completec in December 1993, instead of tht original target date of October. Reynolds also said that tht mayor has been in touch with Johr Baumgardner regarding the towr plat and survey, but there was nothing further to report now. The financial report indicated that the town has assets of $229,00( and liabilities of $1,500. The watei works has assets of $35,00o and nt liabilities. As in past months, the watei works had some unaccounted water, Customers for billed 1,156,000 gal Ions, but the actual usage was 300,000 gallons more than that. Coucnil member Mark Bailey reported that the towns of Charles Town and Harper’s Ferry, W. Va., both want street lights other thar the standard lights supplied by Potomac Edison. Potomac Edison supplies power to Washington and both of those towns. Harper’s Ferry has filed a formal complaint with the power company to use radial-wave fixtures, and that their rewuested is honored, Washington should do the same. During public discussion, Charles Eldred distributed a parts list from a company that makes lights, fixtures and supplies virtually identical to what Washington uses. He pointed out that these are not reproductions, but new lights that are in “continuous production.” ! \ * * f r This Sword Says We’re Your American Cancer Society Even though there are many cancer organizations, there is only me American Cancer Society.

Rappahannock County’s proximity to the metro area increases developmental pressure and descendants are forced to sell part if not all of their inheritance to pay state and federal estate taxes, therefore a sound estate plan is essential for the transition of farms from one generation to the next. The program will be comprehensive look at estate planning, starting with the importance of a good will and examining, in a broad overview, many of the tools available today. Guest speaker will be Allen Olson, an attorney in private practice who resides in the county. He pric-, tices in Fauquier and Rappahannock! and concentrates in the areas of real; property, estates planning, and eri-> vironmental law. He has extensive! experience in the implementaiorioC easements but does not promote; that tool solely for the minimizing of estate taxes.

In addition “nonpoint source control measures must conform to the highest standards of Best Management Practices currently available,” according to the proposed regulations. There are no point-source discharges into the Hazel River in Rappahannock, and new discharges seem extremely unlikely. However, in Culpeper County there is a discharge at the Freedom Studies Center property along the river near Boston, and there is a proposal for further development of the property' that would probably require an ex?! pansion of the treatment plant. Mr. Abell said he “knew Tier lit designation would restrict devel-i opment. The whole idea is that a" clean rivers policy is one that is very' important for Virginia. We need tobe looking into the future to pre-i serve a wild heritage for ourselves' and succeeding generations. We! hope the Hazel River can be jn-; eluded as well as the Rappahan-* nock.” ! The Piedmont Environmental* Council and the Friends of the Rap-! pahannock have nominated two sec-; tions of the Rappahannock River for, Tier III. The section where the Ha-! zel joins the Rappahannock was not! included in the two sections nofni-! nated, and neither organization Was; involved in the action to nominate!; the Hazel. • ? > ' V Ki Theatre Receives Grants!

The series of four concerts begins on October 16, and includes additional performances on November 20, March 12 and May 21. ! . The concerts, which feature a variety of ensembles and musical styles, are part of an on-going effort to make the Smithsonian’s musical program accessible to audiences throughout the mid-Atlantic region. 1 “We realize that many people Who live within an hour or two of the Washington metropolitan area are reluctant to make the drive in order to take advantage of our programming,” said B.J. Davis, a program specialist in the Smithsonian’s Division of Musical History. “The Smithsonian at Little Washington’ series is one example where we can take pur programs directly to these communities. The Theatre at Washington is ideal venue since the performance sj)ace is intimate and the acoustics complement the performances.” The 1993-94 series kicks off at 8 p.m. on Saturday, October 16, with The Capital Jazz Sextet-a dynamic jazz sextet featuring members of the Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra. The group, led by trombonist and arranger Brent Wallarab, will perform a mixture of jazz standards^jMS&hal works and popular tune0|rapp?eorge Gershwin, Cole PortejnlaeFothers. At Ivp. m. on November 20, two members'of the Castle Trio-pianist Lambert Orkis and ’cellist Kenneth Slowik-will present an evening of solo and duo pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach and Ludwig van Beethoven. Both performers are internationally renowned for their performances on period instruments. The music of Leonard Bernstein will be highlighted when the Smithsonian American Song Company presents a special tribute to Leonard Bernstein marking the composer’s 75th birthday at 8 p.m on Saturday, March 21. The final concert in the series at 8 ,p.m., Saturday May 21, features all three members of the Castle Trio along with guest artists-flutist Christopher Krueger and violist Jane Starkman-in a program of chamber music by Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert. The program will include Beethoven’s Serenade in D Major, Op. 25, as well as Schubert’s one-movement “Nottumo,” D.897 and the ever-popular “Trout” Quintet. To provide audiences with a better understanding of the material presented in each of the performances, the concerts will be preceded by a lecture led by one of the performers or a member of the Smithsonian’s staff. The subscription price for all four performances is $50. Remaining tickets for individual concerts, subject to availability, are $13.50 for advance reservations and $15 at the door.

'Big K' Radio Hires Barry Cohen By STEVE CAMPBELL Rappahannock News Staff Writer Big changes are on the way for Big K Radio, WKCW-AM in Warrenton. The station is one of the few AM station that can be picked up easily in. most parts of Rappahannock County. On the auction block just a few months ago — the asking price by New Jersey owner Joyce Crescenti was $740,000 — the station won a reprieve recently in the form of new station manager Barry Cohfen. Cohen, who hails from northwestern New Jersey, took over as manager of the Warrenton AM last week. Former long-time manager Robert J. “Bobby Jo” Watson left last month. With the arrival of new’ station manager, Cohen last week, and a new disk jockey, Eugene Pigeon, this week, the station hopes to return to the heights it climbed more than 20 years ago as the “oldest traditional country station in America.” Cohen heard about the opening “from a friend of a friend,” and after a bit of investigating decided to take on the challenge of reviving a legendary country giant. In New Jersey, he managed ah FM band country station. A 1975 graduate of Keene College in Union, N.J., the 40-year-old Cohen en tered the broadcasting industry in the mid 1980's. Cohen sees Big K as a “country oldies” station, similar to the rock and roll oidies stations that have become so popular in the Washington market. He plans to continue the station’s emphasis on tunes by traditional country and bluegrass artists, while weeding out some* selections and adding new ones. 'The turn around won't come over night.' -Barry Cohen “We still have plenty of Patsy Kline,” said disk jockey Marc Alan, who became operations manager with Cohen’s arrival. Together the pair will guide the station through the interim changes, which include more news broadcasts and expanded local news coverage. Cohen said local news coverage is the strength of broadcasting, setting it apart from larger metropolitan operations. While larger stations in New Jersey provided metro news from urban centers such as New York City and Philadelphia, his station in New Jersey won its audience by cqncentrating on news coverage of the small communities around the state. He plans a similar avenue of attack here in Warrenton by eventually hiring correspondents to cover local news. The station also plans to expand its community service promotions. Right now the station is raising funds to help the folks hit by flooding in the Midwest. It may take six to 12 months, according to Cohen, before the changes make a dent in the station’s lackluster advertising revenue. “We didn’t lose ground overnight, so the turn around won’t ?ome overnight either,” he said. But, the turn around will come, he says. Big K’s huge library of classic country hits and its intensely loyal following help make it a very promising operation. “This station has all the makings of a great station,” Cohen said. 'Roundabout Movie This Weekend “Strictly Ballroom” will be the movie at 7 p.m. at the Theatre in Washington on Sunday, August 22. Australia’s answer to Dirty Dancing is a fun-filled celebration of dance and romance. The feverish pitch of an actual ballroom competition provides the backdrop for the story of a rebellious contestant (Paul Mercurio of the Sydney Dance Company) who scandalizes traditionalists when he dares to introduce some fancy new steps of his own. Tara Marice is the klutzy wallflower whose feet take wing when she follows Mercurio’s dazzling lead. Winner of the Prix de Jeunesse at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, Strictly Ballroon never misses a beat.

Home Based Business Trends The number of Home Based Businesses continued to increase. According to the Small Business Administration in 1992 there were 20.7 million small businesses in the United States, an increase from 14.9 million in 1988. Of that number 68 percent are sole proprietorhsip and 27 percent are owned by women, a sharp increased for 1980. There are several possible reasons why people try a home based business. Some new home based business are started as a result of “moonlighting.” This provides a means of testing a businesss idea and building a client base while maintaining a salary through the diffiuclt start-up years. Another factor adding to the increase in home based business and self employment is the downsizing of many business. Research recommendations, 1991, states the Greenwich Group incorporated findings of umemployed managers; that 30 percent become self employed rather than seek a new employer. Almost half of them enter the consulting field. The others buy into “fast growth” ventures, start a business from scratch, but existing companies or acquire a business franchise. Within Virginia there are between 125,000 and 130,000 businesses of which 95 percent are small businesses. The SBA defines small business as one with five employees arid income of $50,000. Many new home based businesses and well established ones may not meet that criteria. As a result there are many more home based business not counted in the statistics. The needs of the home based business person for marketing, planning, financing and record keeping are similar to those with large business. These topics are being covered by the Virginia Cooperative Extension Home Economists in Planning District Nine and the Flory Small Business Development Center. They are cosponsoring a one day seminar on Tuesday Sept. 21 at Airlie Conference Center in Warrenton. In addition to the topics covered time will be allotted for networking with people in similar businesses. The fee of $28.50 will include lunch and educational materials. Contact Helen Smith, Rappahannock Extension Office at 675-3619 for registration information and more details. The squeaking wheel doesn’t always get the grease. Sometimes it gets replaced.

Community Mourns Death Of Mr. Riley . me community was shocked and saddened to learn of the death of lifelong resident Mr. Stanish W. “Sam’ Riley about 12:30 a.m. Saturday morning from an apparent heart attack. A graveside service was held on Monday at Amissville Baptist Church cemetery. Clergy officiating mcluded Rev. Rodriquez, Rev. Ev•ffett, and Rev. A.C. Walker. I- Mr. Riley was eulogized as a ▼fery meticulous craftsman, a man with “faith like an anchor that Hblds,” a sense of humor with wit »hd wisdom, a master storyteller, and most of all, a real asset to the community. Mrs. Riley was pleased to have her nephew, Paul Newton, of Chicago, along with Michelle and Darron, come in for a few days. Michelle remarked that the Rileys were really her grandparents since her deceased mother Jackie was raised by. them. Paul said they had moved to. Chicago about 10 years ago; he was glad he had come home in March to see the Rileys. • Some may not realize it, but Mrs. Katherine Riley is a descendant of the Amiss family, for whom Amissville was named. Memorial contributions may be made to Amissville Fire and Rescue Company or to Forest Grove Baptist Church. ; Mr. Riley was like a “walking history book.” I enjoyed talking with him about the “good ole days.” He had a great sense of humor and was a hard worker. On one occasion, he walked over to his mantle, picked up a metal cap and asked if I knew what it. was. He related the following interesting story about the “Model-T Radiator Cap.” . When he’ was about 12 to 14 years old, he skipped school one day and worked at the nearby Deathridge Farm, hauling manure all day. For his work he was given the Model-T radiator cap. (His cousin, Raymond Poe, also skipped school and worked with him that day; he also received an item of equivalent Value.) Sam’s sister returned home before Sam and told his mother about him skipping school, and he received a “whipping” upon his return. I suspect that was the last time he skipped school. Mr. Riley was bom at the Scotia Farm, just down the road from where he built his present home in which he and Mrs. Katherine Riley have lived more than 21 years. They had been married for 56 years. Mr. Riley grew up in the home in which the Kellerts now own on U.S. 211, in the heart of the village. Actually, Mr. Riley told me Ids Uncle Hugh Riley and Sam’s dad exchanged houses. Sam’s dad originially owned the home in which Navy Captain and Mrs. L.B. Stuart lived, but the Stuarts purchased it from Mr. Hugh Riley. About 10 years ago Mr. Riley rediscovered the cap at his “home place,” where it had been since about 1930. He brought it home and placed it on the mantle, remarking, “I really did earn that cap.” He’ll be greatly missed! On Saturday, after learning of the death of Mr. Riley, the gospel group, Purple Robe, performing at the Ruritan’s Family Fun Day, dedicated a song in his memory and of Mr. John “Junior” Silvey who had died the previous week. Miss Tiffany Early is the Ruritan Club’s first “Miss Ruritan.” She will be receiving a $50 Savings Bond donated by Rappahannock National Bank.

Reach For A Peach By HELEN W. SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics For only 50 calories per 5 ounces, a peach is packed with nutrients, such as carbohydrates. Almost 10(1 percent of the calories in a peach arc form carbohydrates. Carbohydrates provide a quick soutce of energy. Fructose, the natural sugar in fruits, and fiber are the carbohydrates in peaches. Peaches are a source of vitamins A and C. They are also high in potassium and very low in sodium. Selecting Peaches Look for peaches with fresh creamy or golden undercolor. A rosy blush is pretty, but “red” does not mean “ripe” and the varieties’ blushes differ. Avoid peaches with wrinkles, brownish spots, or traces of green on their skin. There are two types of peaches: clingstone and freestone. A clingstone peach does just what its name says - the flesh (fruit) clings to the stone (pit). Clingstone peaches are grown primarily for processing. In freestone peaches, the predominant fresh variety, and fruit does not cling to the pit. More than 25 peach varieties are grown in orchards throughout Rappahannock County. Some of the most popular ones are sunhighs, rio-oso-gem, lorins, marqueens, and redhavens. Peach Arithmetic One pound of peaches equals two large of three medium-sized peaches or two cups peeled and sliced or 1-2/3 cups peeled and diced or 1-1/2 cups peeled and pureed. Peach Pointers Peeling-If a recipes calls for peeled peaches, submerge peaches into boiling water about 20 seconds, remove with slotted spoon and plunge immediately into cold water. The skins should slip right off. Preserving Color-To keep peaches bright and fresh looking, dip or sprinkle with citrus juice or commercial ascorbic acid mixture. Pureeing-Halve and pit fresh unpeeled peaches, slice into blender with dish of lemon juice and whirl. Use as a base for drinks, sauces and other recipes. Freezing-Savor fresh peach flavor for long winter months. Freeze peeled and quartered peaches. Stir 1 quart fruit with 1 to 1-1/2 tablespoon commercial ascorbic acid mixture. Mix gently but thoroughly. Pack peaches in plastic freezer bags. HOME ECONOMICS Freeze in single layer until frozen, them stack. The following recipes are ways to use fresh peaches.

BALDWIN Rappahannock News Contributing Writer David M. Dwyer, Daniel and Sally Dwyer Keyser of Old Hollow, Deborah Keyser of Winchester, daughter of Daniel and Sally, Annie Dwyer of Culpeper and Wayne Baldwin (three of us for a second time that month) again embarked upon the trails. Our route from Skyline Drive to the chain across the road in Thronton Hollow was 4.9 miles, with another half mile or so added before we reached our parked vehicle. Our trail this day, Saturday, April 17,1993, we believed to be less strenuous, it being all downhill. We anticipated no great obsticles but found that the Thornton River might prove to be one. However, I’m ahead of the story. I had hiked this old trail more than twenty years ago, alone, and unlearned of the acquaintances who once thrived here. It was at Sally’s request I came along today, as she had acquired here brother to “show us” where folks had lived and things had once been. Our first stop was at the Armentrout Cemetery. This is about one to one and a half miles down the trail and about 300 yards to the left. There are the graves of at least six persons, three of which have inscribed stones, i.e., (David Benton) Armentrout, Ida Belle Armentrout Johnson, and Mrs. L.E. (Louise Judd) Armentrout. Not too far from the cemetery on the other side of the road is the foundation of either a house or barn and the remains of a walled spring, all of which in early spring are marked by the rich green of the daffodils. Continuing further down the trail, no more distance than the first foundation was from the cemetery, we came upon another foundation and chimney. This was were Joe Frazier had lived, renting from the Armentrout family. Our next stop was at least a mile on. This would be the Tom Dwyer (Thomas Jefferson Peterson Dwyer) place. Here again, the property was owned by the Armentrout faimly. Remains of the seat and clearly visible and are again marked by the daffodils. The next part of our trail was a little more treacherous. The old road was now a stream bed very gullied out and filled with rushing water. So by carefully following first this way and that we came to the Thornton River. We needed to ford at this point, as had been done in earlier times by our forebearers. This disadvantage we had was that not everybody had boots, no one had a horese or other vehicle, nore was there a bridge. By walking down stream, perhaps 1/4 mile we found a tree across the stream, though not appearing to be too safe. I, in my boots, had no problem. I helped Debbie across the tree. The others, whom I thought were quite foolish, pulled off their shoes . and socks, rolled up their pants legs and waded! Of course, they were all so old they had no feelings in their extremities anyway, so the cold water made no difference to them. (This is a joke kids, don’t get upset). After getting back in the road on the other side of the Thornton, three of us went back up to the site of Hull School. Dave Marshall Dwyer had" gone to school here one year and Annie for several. Coming back down again wTe turned left off the trail onto another road which would now be considered . a private drive, which took us to the site of the Joseph W. Bowen or as he • was better known, Joe Billy Bowen,. home. There was an outside kitchen with a cellar, spring house and well, all of which had cement or concrete foundations. There was also an ice house, below the house and garden, I’m told built of logs, which now ap- . pears only as a large sink hole in the ground. Back on the road we were shown were the ice pond was as well as the saw mill had been, all belonging to Joe Billy Bowen. m BBEb jog ’ <£% Birip^py ••?•., wmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ■ 703/675-333# Only $3.95 per week for a 1 inch space!

Plant Daylilies In Late Summer By DR. DIANE RELF Extension Consumer Horticulturist Though daylily tubers can be planted in early spring, August and early September are the recommended planting and transplanting times. Daylilies Bloom for Only A Day Daylilies are not true lilies (genus Lilium). They belong to the genus Hemerocallis, from the Greek words meaning “day” and “beauty”“beautiful for a day.” This is appropriate because each blossom lasts no more than a day. Each plant produces an abundance of buds, however, so the total blooming time of a well established clump may be 30 to 40 days. Daylilies are rugged perennials that adapt readily to a wide range of site and soils. They grow well in full sun or light shade and do best in a rich, moist soil, high in organic matter. Daylilies are not picky about pH, but perfer slightly acid soil. Plant Deep in Rich Soil Work the soil deeply before planting, incorporating compost, peat moss, well-rotted manure or other organic matter. Dig a large hole that will hold the tuber and its roots without bending or crowding them. Place the plant in the soil so that the crown, the part where the stem and roots meet, is an inch below the ground level. Water thoroughly after planting. Mulch the daylilies for the winter to help protect them from frost heaving. <~ Vigorous growers, daylilies establish themselves quickly and form a dense mat in a few years. They generally need dividing and replanting every three or four years. Keep Three Stems Together When Dividing To divide a clump of daylilies, lift it carefully from the soil and pull it apart. Make sure each division has at least three stems with all their roots attached. Cut the foliage back to 5 or 6 inches. Then replant. Literally thousands of daylily varieties have been named and cultivated. Colors range from creamy white through yellow, pink, coral, red and orange to nearly black. Flowering times vary from early to late summer. By selecting varieties carefully you can have daylilies in bloom all summer.
