No Trace Yet Found
OF Missing Woman
And Baby in Fairfax

A day-long search of the thick
ly wooded area surrounding a
Fairfax County summer camp
failed yesterday to produce any
trace Of Mrs. Frances Garner
Holober, 81. of 931 New York
avenue NV. and her 8-months-
old daughter. June, who have been
missing since Thursday.
The search was made near
Pender, Va, within a radius of
two and a half miles from the
point at which the woman's hus-
band, Charles Francis Holober, re-
ported she left him in a mired
automobile.
1t was conducted by five Fair
fax policemen and five farmers,
accompanied by Mrs. Holober's
father, Irving Garner, and news
paper reporters.
No Woman's Footprints Seen.
Although the ground where the
automobile was stuck was soft
enough to show recent footprints,
none of the prints was made by
woman's shoe, the police con-
cluded.
Mr.. Holober 40, who lives at
1916 Shepherd street NV, told
police that his wife walked away
from the car with the baby about
6 pm. Thursday. after they had
discussed personal matters" He
said she became very nervous
and excited" by a remark he had
made.
Searchers said they were con-
vinced no one had been recently
in the three cottages of the Green
Forest Camp. which police de-
Scrlbed as summertime nudist
colony. They used long poles to
poke into the water of a swim
ming pool at the camp and
combed the woods without turn
ing up any evidence that the miss
ing woman and child had passed
that way.
In company with District De-
tective Jack Hayes. Mr.. Holober
voluntarily went to the scene yes
terday to show where the auto
mobile was mired when he turned
on Route 673 for the trip back
to Washington. He said he and
his wife were not living together
and that he borrowed the car to
take her for drive.
He said they had been stuck
about three hours when she left
with the baby and added that
he spent the night in the automo-
bile, thinking she might come
back there. He hitch-hiked back
to Washington Friday morning,
returning in the afternoon to pull
the car out with a truck.
A neighbor said Mrs. Holober
was expecting another baby. The
missing woman was born in the
District and attended schools here.
She has been living with her
parents.

UNDERSTANDING

The troubles that beset you
Along life's winding road
Are sent to make you stronger
To share another's load
We cannot share sorrow
If we haven't grieved a while
Nor can we feel another's joy
Until we've learned to smile;
sweet mystery of music,
Great masters and their art.
How well we understand hem
When we've known a broken heart!
Let tyrants lust for power
Sophisticates be wise
Just let me see the world.
Dear God,
Through understanding eyes.

Farmhouse Plans Available
From Extension Service

Plans for Is new1y-designed
farmhouses are now available from
the Agricultural Extension Service
Of the University of Delaware, an
nounces William A. Calvert, ex-
tension agricultural engineer. The
houses are all described in a new
bulletin of the u. S. Department of
Agriculture, farmhouse Plans for
the Northeastern States"
Major needs of farm families
have been a foremost concern of
the designers of these plans. In
each house they have planned for
such features as traffic routes that
do not cross busy work .centers, a
living room large enough for most
family and company gatherings, an
efficient kitchen, ample closets,
storage for food and fuel, and a
wash-up place near the back door.
Each house is designed for running
water and for at least one bath
room.
This bulletin may be seen at
county agents offices in Newark,
Dover or Georgetown, or may be
purchased from the Superintendent
of Documents, Washington, D. C.
Development of the plans has
been the cooperative work of three
agencies in the U. S. Department
of Agriculture-the Bureau of
Plant Industry, Soils and Agricul-
tural Engineering; Bureau of HUI
man Nutrition and Home Econom-
les; and the Extension Service,

How Much Help Under ACP?

How Much Help Under ACP?
The cost of conservation prac-
tices carried on under the Agricul-
tural Conservation Program is
shared by the farmer and the gov
ernment, explains G. e. Ocheltree,
chairman of the Delaware State
PIMA. Committee. Explaining that
this share-the-cost method is the
most effective means of getting
the conservation job done, Ochel-
tree lists the following points on
how the program operates.
First-All assistance is on the
share-the-cost basis. The farmer
has to put up part of the cost of
the conservation practice. This
averages about so per cent of the
"out-of-pocket" cost of the prac-
tice. $500 farmers cooperated in
the 1948 Agricultural Conservation
Program in Delaware.
Second-Assistance is provided
only for conservation practices
which have been approved by
farmer committeeman and soil and
crop specialists. The practice when
completed must meet definite con-
servation specifications.
Third-Carrying out conserva-
tion practices under the Agricul-
tural Conservation Program is vol
untary. No farmer is required to
