Teamwork Builds Kite Farm
Twins Join Parents in undermining
2O2.Acre Culpeper Property

Mr.. Kite is beginning to raise
soybeans to provide the protein con-
centrates, which means that he
eventually will be able to discon-
tinue outside feed purchases.
It has been a rough road to travel,
however. Mr.. Kite was farming
when the depression hit this coun-
try and that period almost finished
him.
"One day my banker asked me If
I were discouraged" Mr.. Kite said.
II told him ! waSn't-that ] would
find a way.
well, he said If that was how I
felt the bank would go along with
me. And it did"
For a time Mr.. Kite worked for
the State. Then he got into the
automobile business, only to be
burned out and loose all Of his in
vestment. He worked for q time
in Baltimore shipyard, and then
operated filling station near here.
II got back to farming" he said,
because the boys wanted it. They
both wanted to come back to the
land"
During the war Donald operated
his grandfather's farm. Raymond
served with the Army in Korea,
and while there wrote that he had
decided to keep to the land.
I'VE went into this together" Mr..
Kite explained, land we share
alike. The farm Is decided to the
boys, with my wife and retain
ing q life interest. We figured that
was the best way to do it."
The boys are beginning to take
their places in community activities,
too. Donald is president Of the
county's Rural Youth Club and is
program chairman Of the Progress
sive Young Farmers Club. Ray
mond is recreation chairman of the
first organization.

BLACKSBURG, Va.-Five new
artificial cattle-breeding associa.
tions started operation in Virginia
this year, bringing to Is the num-
Der of active groups.
There are now approximately 10000
cows enrolled in the is associations,
compared to 1927 cows in 10 asso-

The report was made by G. G.

CULPEPER, Va.-When his Cul-
peper County neighbors talk about
w. A. Kite they usually end with
the old saying, you just can't keep
a good man down"
And there's reason, too, for such
remarks, for Mr.. Kite and his twin
sons, Donald and Raymond, %,
have headed into the straight road
toward success on their 202-acre
farm near here after hitting many
q curry stretch and being stopped
by many blind alley.
The Kites are building a profit
able dairy business, selling milk to
the Washington market. It looks
like they will be out of debt and
ION top of the world" in a few
more years.
There are, of course, lots of things
that 60 into good farming. Almost
every good farmer has his points,
and few are like any other. With
the Kites it is probably teamwork
and the good head" of Mr.. Kite
that makes their operation out
standing.
Their new 40-cow dairy barn Is
one of the most modern; their fields
have been contour strip cropped for
maximum conservation of soil and
water, and their entire farm has
been mechanized to cut labor to a
minimum.
I'VE figured last year." Mr.. Kite
said, that our entire program took
about 200 man hours. That sort of
farming is on a leisurely scale"
The Kites not only grow their
hay and silage, but most of the
grain and concentrates that go into
the herd of grade Guernseys and
Holsteins. A modern feedroom at

Food Tips
There's real art in cooking fish
correctly. Gentle, not-too-long cook
ing keeps it juicy and tender and
brings out its delicate flavor. Over
cooked fish is apt to be dry and
flavorless.
"A sweet-sour sauce is delicious on
many vegetables. Just mix up a me.
dunn white sauce and at the end OF
cooking, add two tablespoons OF
sugar and two tablespoons lemon
juice or vinegar for each cup OF
sauce.
To make the stew that you are SER
wing a little different, put it in a cas-
serole and border the edge with
fluffy, well seasoned mashed pota-
toes. Run the dish under the broiler
flame just long enough to fleck the
potato border with brown. The po-
tatoes will take the place of bread
at least for some of the less hungry
members of your family.
are especially good way to use stale
bread that you so often have on
hand.
Green salads can't be served too
often. They are economical in price
and high in vitamin and iron content.
You can use variety of green's
whatever is available at your local
grocery store Or garden. Add flavor
and color with raw carrot curls, sliv-
ers of celery or cheese, picked beets,
chopped onions. pickles, stuffed oil
yes or picked onions.

Cinnamon toast sticks are an in
Tossed salads the an especially
good dish for your young daughter
to prepare. She will enjoy choosing
her own ingredients and her help
will save your time when you are
busy with the rest of the dinner.
Wilted green's is the tragedy of
salads prepared too far in advance
so this dish is best prepared at the
last minute.
