Northern Virginia
HoIts Preseason
Squirrel Huntinq

There will be no September
squirrel season this year in 19
Virginia Counties north of the
Rappahannock River.
q State Game Warden Fred
Brown, stationed in Fairfax Coun-
ty, said huntsmen usually have
been allowed to shoot squirrels ir
advance of the general open sea
son, which starts November 20
this year.
The early squirrel shooting has
been eliminated, however, because
the State felt too many hunters
were accidentally shooting other
game for which the season had
not yet opened, he said.

Double Primary
In Virginia 9Th
|sSet tuesday
Campaign for Seat
Held by Rep. Smith
Marked by Apathy

A double congressional primary
marked by lack of campaigning
and general disinterest, will be
held in Virginia's 9th District
Tuesday to choose Democratic
and Republican nominees to the
House seat now held by Howard
w. Smith.
In Arlington, there will be new
voting machines and a referen-
dunn on a swimming pool bond
issue to stimulate interest in an
otherwise unexciting campaign.
There are two candidates for
both the Democratic and Repub-
lican nominations.
Representative Smith, Demo-
crat. is opposed by Arthur F.
Souther, of Arlington. A third
Democratic aspirant, H. Keany
Kopp, jr., of Alexandria, an
nounced his withdrawal because
he said he had been notified of a
pending call to active Navy duty.
Election officials said Mr.. Kopps
name would appear on the ballot,
however, because his withdrawal
came too late to remove it. It also
will appear on the Arlington voting
machines.
Back Truman on Korea.
Neither of the Democratic can
didateS carried out extensive
campaigns. Mr.. Smiths principal
public pronouncements in his bid
for reelection to an l1th term
were in reply to a QUESTIONABLE
of the Virginia League of Women
Voters.
He called for "a firm and pos:-
tive stand against further aggreS-
sion by the Soviet Union,"' and
added that he was in accord with
President Truman's action in
Korea.
Mr.. Souther did not reply to
the questionnaire.
Opponents in the Republican
primary are Tyrrell Krum, of
Vienna, who was the districts 1948
G. o. P. nominee. and Hal Flood
Hughes, Arlington businessman.
In their replies to the League
of Women Voters QUESTIONABLE,
both found strong stand against
Russian aggression, and a bal
anced Federal budget.
Unlike the quiet primary cam
paigns, there has been real po-
litical tug-of-war about Arling-
tons swimming pool referendum.
Petitions Circulated.
Petitions requesting the refer
endum were circulated by the
Arlington Democratic Club. Leon
ard o. Hilder, club president, has
said the bonds can be self
liquidating.
But a majority of the county
board yesterday said statements
that the $500, 900 bond issue could
be self -liquidating were "mislead-
ing"
Board Chairman Daniel A. Du-
gan. and Board Members Robert
w. Cox and Mrs. Florence Can
non insisted there are no self
liquidating swimming pools" All
were elected TO the board as non
partisan candidates, wrestling
control from the Democrats.
Polls will be open from 7:30 m.
to $50 pm. in all sections where
daylight saving time is used, and
from $50 am. to 1880 pm. where
that standard time is in effect.
Two other primaries will be held
Tuesday elsewhere in Virginia.
Representative Gary, Democratic
incumbent from the Sd District
which includes, Richmond, is Cp-
posed by Minetree Folkes, jr.. a
Richmond attorney. In the 1st
District, which includes the Tide
water area, from Newport News
and the Eastern Shore over
to Fredericksburg, Representative
Robson is opposed in the Demo-
cratic primary by Mrs. Katherine
Blow, Yorktown.

you measure the soda, and cut
down on the soda if the butter
milk is very fresh. After the bis
cult or cookies are all ready for
the milk, hold the cup over the
bowl Of dry mixture while you
add the required amount of soda
and stir the soda in the milk, let
ting the foaming liquid spill into
the dry ingredients until there
are no Jumps possible Then emp
ty the rest Of the liquid into the
dry, and work the two together
until the whole is smooth. Work
it some more before each pan of
biscuits or cookies is gotten ready
for the baking sheet.
Any soda biscuits or cookies, or
soda anything, is better if baking
powder is added at the rate of l
level teaspoon per cup of flour.
The baking powder keeps the ar
ticle light; the soda keeps it moist
and fresh. Therefore, a combina-
ton of the two is always a better
bet, regardless of the recipe. You
can add soda to any recipe, almost
by simply substituting sour for
sweet milk and adding the re-
quired soda as given about, y to
"a teaspoon per cup of sour milk.

SPOTS ON MAHOGANY:
SODA IN BISCUITS

from L. r. B., WdShingtonJ
Streaks or spots on mahogany
or any other wood that I know.
can be removed by painting gen.
erously with camphorated oil, the
kind used on your mothers chest
when she had a cold. Two or
three applications may be neces-
sary if the spots are old and bad.
Some days ago a lady asked
how. to make biscuits with soda;
knowing the SNUG amusement
with which many women who
have made biscuits almost from
babyhood greet such a question,
I wish to give a simple answer
Soda is tricky, regardless of any,
body's smugness. But it is one of
the most useful ingredients any
one ever cooked with. It keeps
food soft and fresh tasting. For
instance, cookies made with bak-
ing powder may become hard the
second day, with soda added the
same cookies will be almost as
good after two weeks as they were
the day they were baked, if they
are kept in stone or pottery jar;
biscuits can be reheated once.
with little or no loss in their edible
qualities.
Soda must be used with care,
Never use more soda than any
recipe calls for. Usually use less.
if the buttermilk is not exceeding
ly sour. The general rule is l tea
spoon per cup of sour milk, but
if you use that much, nine times
out Of ten your cooked product,
biscuits or cookies will be yellow
or have yellow spots if you sift the
soda in the flour and do not add it
directly into the sour milk Just
before it is used. My mother said,
normally, use u to "a of a level
teaspoon Of soda for l cup of sour
milk; always taste the milk before
